Chapter 10
Tris POV
Sorry I didn't update until now. I had school, unfortunately. :( Anyway I hope you like this chapter, truth or dare ideas welcome! :)
I wake up stretching out my back. Although the couch seemed so comfortable, I have a very sore back from sleeping on it all night. Surprisingly Tobias is still sleeping soundlessly on the sofa, so I take my chance, and head into the kitchen.
I grab a bucket, and fill it with ice cold water. I step back into the room, to see he has rolled off the sofa, and onto the floor. Somehow he didn't wake up after he hit the floor. I tiptoe over to him, and pour the water all over the back of his head.
"What the hell?!" He shouts, and everyone comes running into the room. They're all laughing as they see my empty bucket, and Zeke's soaking floor.
"I think Tris wants a hug," Tobias says. Oh crap. I run to the kitchen, but I wasn't quite quick enough. Tobias grabbed my arm, and yanked my into a bear hug. He then shook out his hair like a dog, soaking me in little droplets.
"Ewwwww!" I scream. I'm all wet now. It's kinda gross actually because I have to go to work wet. Ugh.
"I'm going to change," I say.
"I'll change after you Chris yells. I give her a thumbs up, and continue walking.
I grab my bag, and dig through it to find my clothes. I pull out my black skinny jeans, and my dark navy blue tank top. I step into the bathroom to change, and come out a few minutes later, to see Tobias got food for everyone. I grab a muffin, and start nibbling off the top.
"WOAH!" Uriah yells. "You can't eat your muffin like that in my brother's apartment. How can you eat your muffins like that?" He asks.
I shrug my shoulders. Tobias had also bugged me for this multiple times. "Why don't you try it?" I ask.
"Alright." He starts to nibble off the top of his muffin. "Hey this actually makes it taste a lot better!" He says. He continues to eat his muffin my way.
"I can't believe you convinced him to eat his muffin like that. You knew he would do it." Tobias whispers, as he kisses my hair.
"Why not try it?" I ask him, waving my muffin in front of him, as a temptation.
"Okay." He grabs another muffin off the plate, and nibbles off the top. "Way better," he says.
I smile at him. He knew I would get him to eat it like that eventually. He's been bugging me about it for a couple weeks now. "Next, I'll get Uriah to hate Pop Tarts." I say.
"Never gonna happen," Uriah states, guarding the Pop Tarts on the counter. I laugh at him.
"I'll get you someday." I demand. I'll get him, eventually.
"We have to go." Tobias says to me. I forgot we have our first day as leaders today.
"Got it, let's go!" I say,standing up from the stool I was sitting on. I wave goodbye as we walk out the door with our bags.
"Let's stop at our apartments to drop off our bags, and then we'll head over." He suggests.
"Sure." We walk to the apartments in silence. I open my door, and throw my bag onto my bed, I'll unpack it later.
I meet back up with Tobias, who's still in his apartment next door. "Come on, slowpoke." I say, pulling him out of his room. He was putting all his clothes away, of course they all had to be folded the right way with no wrinkles.
He starts to protest, but I shut him up with a kiss. "We're going to be late." I say in a sing-song voice. He groans.
"We could always skip." He suggests. I roll my eyes at him.
"Let's go!" I say. We walk past the control room, and the ambassadors room, and into a room with glass walls.
"You decided to show up," Max say to us from the corner. "This is the meeting room, your offices are over there. For some reason your friends came and decorated them for you early. They kept going on and on, about how it was a dare." Oh god no. I slowly walk to my office, and tobias does the same. We both walk in to our separate offices.
My jaw drops. It looks really nice. There are a bunch of pictures of me, and Tobias on the desk. On the wall there's a giant poster of me, and Christina. I smile, this is perfect. Then on the opposite wall there's all 10 of us at the ferris wheel at night, with all the lights lit up behind us. It's perfect. I remind myself to thank them for it later, knowing that Christina probably had to make them all come here.
I close the door behind me on the way out, and step into Tobias' office. His office has pictures of me, and him on the desk, a giant picture of a beach trip the 10 of us took last week, and a giant wall with the words FEAR GOD ALONE spray painted in black.
"We need to thank them for this." I say, snapping Tobias out of his day dream.
"I already did, don't worry about it." He answers.
Max comes in then, yelling at us about taking way too much time. I sigh, I'm now a Dauntless leader.
