First story! Lemme know how it is. Don't be afraid to be mean, I can take it!
Chapter One - The Morning After

I wake up with a massive hangover and the feeling of needing to vomit. I quickly rise out of my bed that I shared with Tobias and go straight to the bathroom to empty my stomach. I hear Tobias awaken and my first thought is, "Oh crap, I don't want him to see me like this." I attempt to quickly compose myself, but I wasn't fast enough and he walks in before I deem myself "socially acceptable".

"Hey," he says, noticing my appearance sitting beside the toilet. "You okay?"

I nod. "Major hangover. My head is pounding. Are they always this bad?" He starts to laugh and I quickly swat him with my hand closest to him. "Don't laugh!" I scold.

He stops laughing and smiles at me lopsided. I could get used to living with him like this - after all, it's our first day together as two official Dauntless members. I smile at the thought.

"They get easier over time," he tells me. "I'll grab you some medication for your headache."

I thank him and he leaves for a moment before returning with two pills and a glass of water.

"So," he says after I have taken my pills and downed the water, "someone went a little overboard at Zeke's party."

I scowl at him, but still have to stifle a laugh. "Stop it, Tobias," I whine.

"Okay, okay. You feeling any better?"

I consider it for a moment. "Yeah, a little bit. Any plans for the day?" I ask.

He shakes his head. "I figured you'd have a hangover, so I decided that a lazy day would be a smart option."

Thank you for always being one step ahead, Tobias, I think. I nod before answering. "Good idea. Help me up?" I ask, extending a hand. He obliges, and picks me up and starts to carry me back to bed.

"Tobias!" I screech. "Put me down!"

"No way. We're heading back to bed and not moving for the next couple of hours."

And that's exactly what we do.

= The next day =

"Tris!" I hear from behind me. I turn and see Christina. I slow my walking for a moment, letting her catch up to me.

"Hey, Chris," I say with a smile.

"Where were you yesterday?" she asks. "I didn't see you all day!"

I laugh. "Tobias and I had a lazy day. I had a massive hangover," I admit sheepishly. "Not pretty," I add.

She nods her understanding. "I wasn't exactly in the best mood yesterday morning either. But, damn, does Zeke throw a good party."

"What's this about my good parties?" We turn and see Zeke and Tobias coming towards us. Tobias wraps his arm around me.

"Just that we had killer hangovers yesterday. And hi," I add, kissing Tobias.

Zeke laughs. "What? No kiss for me?" he patronizes. I laugh and he adds, "Uriah told me you weren't familiar with alcohol, Tris, but I didn't think you'd get drunk off one beer."

I scowl, before looking around. "Where is Uri, anyway?" I ask. "And it was two!" I add.

"Last I saw of him was when he and Marlene went into his apartment last night," Zeke says, wiggling his eyebrows. I suppress a laugh.

"Come on," Tobias says, speaking for the first time since he and Zeke arrived. "I'm hungry. Time for lunch."

"Wait," Christina says. "Will should be coming soon..." Her voice trails off, and I see Will coming from the opposite direction.

"There he is," I point out. Her smile is instantaneous. She gives him a brief kiss when he arrives. He waves his hello to the rest of us, and we greet him back. Their relationship makes me feel jealous. Sure, I love Tobias more than I have ever loved anyone else, but Christina and Will never had to hide their love like we did. They never had to fight like we did. Still, they deserve their happiness.

Everyone deserves their little bit of happiness. Tobias is mine, and he will always be.

So how was that?! Lemme know in a review?(; Please? It will make my day to see someone review. I'll probably post another chapter tonight or tomorrow after school.
Fun fact- I wrote this when I was supposed to be writing an essay on Rose Parks.. Oops.
