I'm sure my shock shows on my face.

"You mean, you want to see my tattoos?" I asked.

"Yes, that's exactly what I mean." She still had this nice and big smile on her face.

"Okay." I said, standing up from the balcony.

I turned so I wasn't facing her and lifted my shirt over my head.

I could almost feel Tris stiffen behind me.  Partially because I was stiffening myself.  People didn't see my bare back a lot.

Tris took a step toward me and suddenly her fingertips were making contact with my back.

My muscles tensed even more than they already were.

"What does it mean?" She asked in a little less than a whisper.

"I don't want to be just one thing." A pause. "I want to be brave, selfless, intelligent, honest, and kind."

I turned around and looked into Tris's eyes, hoping I wasn't scaring her.

"I'm still working on kindness though." I smiled a bit.

And that did it.

I kissed her.

I hadn't kissed anyone in a while, so it felt new to me, and I knew without a doubt that it was new to her, which made it all the more better.

We grabbed onto each other like life supports, and in a way, we were for each other.

Tris broke the kiss after a while. "I don't want to go too fast."  She mumbled.

"It's okay.  Neither do I." I lied.
