Chapter 33

-----------------

I walk out of the room and regroup with Laura and Ian. Morgan is on her way into the room. I sigh deeply.

"I hope she does good." I say to Laura and Ian. Ian holds her tightly and she smiles.

"I know she'll do good." Laura says happily.

They love eachother a lot. Its like they've been together for a while now. Have they? I dismiss the thought and refuse to watch Morgans fears.I havent watched anyones fears and I dont intend to. I walk out of the

cafeteria and close the doors. My breathing becomes heavy and I lean back against the wall. Soon I feel moisture on my cheeks. I am crying and I cant stop.

The tears stream down my face and I just let it all out. It feels good to cry. To release all of my emotions. I feel stupid, and overly emotional but I quite frankly dont care. After a while of this, I wipe my tears and go back inside. Im just in time because now the names are on the board.

My eyes go wide with shock. Im first? Im first! There are many cheers and screams, boos and sobs. Surprisingly, I jump up and down cheering. My fists pump the air and I go kind of insane. I've never felt joy like this in my life. I can be with Eric now. I have friends who all made it. My life is finally complete.

A pair of arms wrap around my waist and I shriek. I know by now that they are Erics. He spins me around, sets me down, turns me around, and kisses me. I assume he doesnt care if anyones watching. Nobody is so I kiss back. His lips on mine feel familiar and comforting. I pull back and put my palms on his chest.

"We can be together now." I say happily.

"Thank God." he smirks and a hand lays on my shoulder. I turn around and see Morgan. I scream and hug her.

"WE DID IT! WE DID IT! WE DID IT!" we both scream.

"Hey dont forget about me." Ian says. Morgan lets go and I hug Ian.

"You did AMAZING!" I say cheerily.

"Thanks."

"Hey! Get off my boyfriend!" I hear a voice say teasingly. I let go of Ian, run up to Lauren, and hold her arms. We both jump up and down and scream and cheer. We shriek inaudibly and soon come to a stop when Ian tells us to get cake.

"Hold on a sec." I say. They nod and I walk up to Eric. I press my lips to his and hold the back of his neck. His arms lift me up so I dont have to stand on my tiptoes and I wrap my legs around him. All the while we never stop kissing. I pull back and lean my forehead to his.

"I love you so much Eric." I whisper.

"I cant even describe how much I love you." he says back. I smile and he sets me down so I can eat cake with my friends.

They all stand, mouths gaping open.

"Thats been going on for a while." I say smirking.

"Eric?"

"Eric my boyfriend."

"You guys are a wierd couple." Ian says.

"We're Dauntless."
