How Allegiant Should Have Ended

Tobias:

She doesn't believe me. I hate lying to her, but right now, I don't really have a choice.

"Okay," she says. "I believe you." Apparently she is comfortable with lying.

"Thank you Tris," I say, kissing her forehead. I wrap her in my arms and get lost in thought.

Should I do it now? Is now the right time to propose? I mean, she seems like she's in a good mood. We're both relaxed. We're alone. We might not get any more moments like this in a while.

But the other part of me is telling me that I'm rushing everything. We're still so young. I'm 19 and she's 17. She's not even legally an adult yet! Everything's just going to be happening all at once if we get married right now. Then again, almost our whole relationship has been like that. Maybe it won't be as hard as I think. I'm probably just over exaggerating it.

Here goes nothing.
