When I wake up the next morning I no longer feel Tris' warmth on my chest but she is still in my arms. Her back are pressed against my chest, one hand resting under mine on her hip, the other laced with mine in front of her. It still amazes me how perfectly she fits in my arms, her soft skin under my fingers, I'm sure this is what heaven looks like. She moves in my arms, not breaking the connection between our hands. I press my lips against her shoulder blade, awakening her. She moans before turning around to face me.
„Morning." I tell her and she presses her hand over my lips
„Shhh, if you don't acknowledge it maybe it will go away." she whispers before burying her head into my chest. I laugh at her words, hugging her closer to my body. My fingers massage her head, playing with her blond locks.
„You know we have to get up? Danni will wake soon." I tell her and she groans softly. I smile and she giggles suddenly, as if she just realised where she was. She places her legs on each side of me, hovering over me. Her hands pressure my shoulders so that I stay down as she brushes her lips with mine. My hands find their way around her waist, resting on her bare back. She kisses me intensely, our lips moving in sync. A moan escapes my mouth, letting her take control of the kiss. Suddenly, the softness of her lips is gone and she is already out of the bed, laughing. I'm shocked because of her disappearance and she laughs even more.
„Up! Let's go! It's a wonderful day, we have to go see Danni." she says, extremely preppy and excited, trying to find her clothes. I spot her shirt on the chair next to the bed and quietly pick it up. She sees me, extending her hand towards me.
„Give me my shirt, Tobias." she says seriously and I laugh, shaking my head. She jumps, trying to yank it away from my hands.
„Stop. I'll give it to you it you give me something back." she pulls me closer and gives me a loving kiss on the lips. I pull her shirt over her shoulders and kiss her neck as she buttons it up. She slips away from my hold and walks through the door.
„Tris, what were you doing in Tobias' room?" I hear Caleb from outside. Damn it, he got us.
„I was waking him up." she says, quickly, trying to hide our secret.
„Where did you sleep? You weren't with Danni." he asks and I know I have to help her. I pull open the door, saying good morning to Caleb. He stops and I use the opportunity to change the topic.
„We should really go to Danni." Tris says, taking my hand and leading me to her room. She pushes open the door and I see Danni lying on the bed, still asleep. Tris rushes to her side, slowly sitting down next to her, carefully not to hurt her. Danni winces, her eyelids fluttering before opening. Her hazel eyes look tired but happy, knowing she's safe.
„Tobes." she breathes out and I rush to her side. Seeing her like this, my little sister hurting so much, makes me sad and angry at the same time.
„Danes, are you okay?" her giggle relaxes me and she nods, taking my hand in hers. „I'm sorry, I should have been there, I should have stopped him." she presses her index finger to my mouth.
„No, Tobes, there was nothing you could do, he could have just hurt you. I'm going to be just fine. You know me, I'm strong, nothing can hurt me." she says and the three of us laugh. Tris hugs her and they both giggle.
„We were scared for you Danni." she tells Danni before motioning for me to join the hug.
Later that evening when I enter in Tris' room I see her laying on the bed, her head against her headboard, her blond locks draped across the black pillowcase, her white skin contrasting my black hoodie which acts as a dress to her. In her hands a book we need to read for English. She might be two years below but her AP subjects put her in the same class with me. I jump on the bed next to her just as she reads the last words of The Notebook.
„You are the answer to every prayer I've offered. You are a song, a dream, a whisper, and I don't know how I could have lived without you for as long as I have." I whisper to her my favourite quote, the one Noah said to Allie.
"You are, and always have been, my dream." my lips crash against hers as she speaks those words, my arms pushing her against the wall. Her hands find their way to my hair, gripping it and pulling me closer. I separate our lips, earning a pout from Tris. My lips move to her neck, kissing the soft skin. She moans quietly, her fingers gripping my hair even tighter. Her phone rings and she reaches for it, breaking our contact.
"Hello." she answers as I place my lips back on her neck. I don't hear the other end of the conversation but Tris agrees.
"See you in twenty, Chris." she says to Christina before breaking the line. She fits her mouth to mine before getting up.
"I have to go see Chris. I love you." she says, slipping into her black boots.
"I love you like Noah loves Allie." I tell her and she laughs with that angelic voice.
"Same here, Noah." her lips find their place on my lips and I pull her by her waist. She breaks the kiss before leaving me in the room, my mind remind itself of my last memory, of Tris, her wavy blond hair, her sparkling grey eyes, her tiny body in my huge black hoodie, skinny dark jeans and black boots. I never want to stop thinking about her, I never want to loose this girl.
