I am back with another story ^^ I wanted to do an OS but on second thought I decided to do a story but it will be kind of short (only 4 chapters).
Again, I want to apologize for the mistakes it may contain. :)
One year after initiation
TRIS POV
I walk to Tobias' apartement, my nerves threatening to let go. I need to do that, even if it's hard. It's for the better. I knock on the door and he opens quickly.
"Tobias, can we talk ?" I say, he nods. We sit on the couch, facing each other. I take a deep breath and close my eyes. "I don't think we should continue this. Our relationship. It seems like something is wrong" I look at him, he is smiling.
"Don't worry Tris, I thought the same think" he admits.
"So, friends ?" he hugs me
"Friends" he assures me.
"Thanks Tobias" I'm glad he feels that way too, I felt so horrible. I leave toward my apartment and lay on my bed.
I take deep breathes and try to calm myself. I think of my life and what will happen now.
It's only on my bed that I realize what I did. Why did I do that ? I am so stupid. I mean, I do love him. A lot. But I was just scared and I destroyed everything. And he said he felt the same way. There is no way he would take me back. I lost him, forever.
One week later
No, no, NO. I can not be, it's impossible. We broke up. I know I still love him but he doesn't. I take a deep breath to calm myself. I clean myself, by that I mean I wipe my eyes and take off the two strides of mascara on my cheeks then walk to his apartment. He needs to know. I knock six times and he quickly opens.
"Tris" he smiles
"Tobias, can I come in ?" he opens the door wider for me.
"Of course" We sit on the couch and he gives me a glass of water.
"Tobias, I know we broke up but I found out this morning.. I'm sorry.. I never meant it to happen, it's.." he takes my hands while I try to explain and clear my mind. The tears eventually come back.
"Tris, calm down. You can tell me" He wipes my cheeks with his thumbs.
"I'm pregnant Tobias" He stiffens at my words. His eyes widen while his mouth opens then closes a few times. But eventually he hugs me and rubs my back.
"It's okay. We may not be together anymore, I'll still help you with the baby. We are friends and I care for you and it's our baby" I smile as he whispers.
"Thank you Tobias"
"I mean it. If you need any help with money or anything, you'll just have to ask me. I'll always be there for you"
"Okay."
"We can do this and raise this baby together."
"You're are amazing. I didn't expect so much from you" I hug him.
"Two Stiffs having a kid out of wedlock. I think our parents, especially yours would be horrified"
"I'm sure my father would have disown me within a second"
"And I'd propably be already dead"
"And buried" We laugh together at the thought. He is amazing and he is the father of my child.
Five years later
Shauna/Zeke: married, 4 years. Shauna pregnant 6 months
Christina/Will: married, 5 years. A son, Nathan, 4.
Uriah/Marlene: Dating
I stuck small clothes and a teddy bear in a bag.
"Lia Eaton, come here right now" I yell through the apartment. A little 5 years old girl with blond hair and blue eyes runs to me. My little girl, Tobias and I's little girl.
"Why ?" she pouts.
"Daddy is coming, you are staying with him tonigh" She jumps up and smiles.
Tobias and I always stayed really close for her. She also thinks we are still a couple. I can't resort myself to tell her the truth, neither does Tobias. We are her parents and we just want her to be happy.
"Yay" As on cue, the door opens.
"Where is my little princess ?" Tobias asks, she giggles and runs to him.
"Daddy !" she squeals. He picks her in his arms and kisses her cheek. She catches his neck and holds him.
"Hey, did you have fun with mommy ?" he asks as he hugs me.
"Yes, mommy bought a new teddy bear" she answers. I finish to pack her stuffs and hand the bag to Tobias.
"Here. Enough for three days." he smiles at me. Everytime he smiles, I fall in love again. It's been five years since we broke up and I regret it every day.
"You're still coming with us tomorrow at the park ?" he asks. Lia looks at me with pleading eyes.
"Of course" Lia laughs and I kiss her forehead. "Be nice with daddy, I'll see you tomorrow"
Lia nods and he smiles at me again before leaving with her. I put her toys in the toy box then lay on the couch. I need to tell him I still love him. I never dated another man after him, I just couldn't. He is everything for me and I still don't know why I did this. I was so stupid !
The next morning, I pack my bag and go to the park. I spot Tobias on a blanket next to an oak angel tree. Lia runs everywhere and tries to catch a butterfly. She is so cute with her blue dress. I sat next to Tobias. As he pulls me in a hug, Lia runs to me, kisses my cheeks and goes back to the butterfly.
"Am I late ?" I ask
"Not at all, Lia wanted to come earlier, she dressed alone and was waiting for me in her room" I laugh at it.
"What will we do with her ?..."
"I don't know, but I love when she acts like that" he says while watching her.
"I totally agree" We stay still, watching Lia tiring herself as she runs everywhere.
"So, how are you ?" I eventually ask.
"I'm fine. The control room is a little stressful, but I'm okay" I smile at him "You ?"
"Well, I spent the last days with Lia, so I'm a little stressed too" he laughs
"I totally understand, you must be exhausted" I lay my head on his shoulder and close my eyes.
"Mommy, daddy" Lia squeals, she definitively spend to much time with Christina "I got one" she runs to us and shows us a beautiful yellow butterfly.
"It's wonderful honey" she grins proudly at us but the butterfly flies away and she pouts.
"Don't worry princess, you'll find another one" Tobias assures and her smile is back. He really is a good dad.
"Daddy ? Why don't you never kiss mommy ? You never do it. Auntie Chris and Uncle Will do" I lift my head and look at Tobias. We told her that we don't live together because of our working schedules. She doesn't know we are not together, though she knows we are not married.
"Well.." I trail off but Tobias cuts me with his lips. I put my hands on his cheeks and he holds my waist. I only hear Lia's screams of joy, nothing else matters. We never kissed in 5 years so I can't say I don't enjoy it. He pulls away and I stare in his eyes. I still feel his lips on mine, I missed it so much. Lia hugs us and runs away to find another butterfly.
"For her" he says. I smile at him but inside, I'm broken.
"For her" I repeat.
We come back for dinner and sit at the table with the others.
"Mommy and daddy kissed, mommy and daddy kissed,..." Lia sings over and over. I turn red.
"Lia, why don't you play with Nathan ?" Tobias suggests and she joins Christina's son.
"So, you kissed" Christina states.
"Yeah, well not exactly. Lia asked why we never kiss and I didn't know what to say. I know one day, we'll have to tell her but she is too young so Four kissed me for her" They nod understandingly except Zeke.
Christina leans over the table and looks at me in the eye.
"Tris, do you mind if we have a girl night ?" I smile at my best friend.
"Not at all"
"Alright, I'll be there at 8"
There is a pounding at my door and I open it before Christina breaks it. She enters, two bottles of alcohol in hand.
" Hey Tris, so no child, no guy ! Just us and tequila ! Let's get drunk" I laugh at he. She sits and we immediately drink our first glass.
Two hours later, we are really drunk.
"So, about that kiss" We giggle together and drink again.
"It was amazing. I missed it so much, I love him" I laugh while thinking of him.
"You still love him ?" she asks shocked.
"Yeah. You should see him, he is amazing and a wonderful father" I slur.
"Get up and tell him" The alcohol seems to think for me because I do. She gets up and takes my hand to help me up as well, but we end on the floor, laughing. I stroll in the hallways and I eventually find his apartment.
So... I'd love to know what you think of it :)
