Tris POV
Riding on the back of Tobias' motorcycle is one of the most relaxing places to be. The way the wind wraps around me, yet I still seem to slice through the cool summer air. It clears my mind, I can think in the comfortable silence and white noise of the motorcycle. With my face nestled into Tobias' warm back and my arms wrapped around his waist, I finally feel at peace. Like my stress has been lifted and I can finally just relax and enjoy myself. I can feel Tobias' tough abdomen against my hands and his deep breathing starts to lull me into a daydream. I feels like seconds later when Tobias turns to face me. Apparently, when you start to get lost in thought, time passes quickly.
"Trissy? Babe we've gotta go inside I wanna talk to you." I love the way his demeanor is always protective, but his smile and eyes are always soft and inviting. I feel myself nodding and biting my lip. His warm, strong hand wraps around mine and he leads me into his house, kicking the front door closed as he lifts me over his shoulder, easily carrying me.
"Let go of me!" I punch his back playfully and I can feel one of Tobias' hands move towards my waist.
"If you keep fighting, you're gonna get tickled…" I know he's smirking in front of me. I start to wiggle around and kick.
"Oh my god no don't you da- AHHH!" I scream and laugh till the point that my stomach and face start to cramp up and hurt. I guess Tobias decides he's sabotaged me enough because he swings my around so that I have my legs wrapped around his waist and he's carrying me into the kitchen. He sets me lightly onto the countertop and his brilliant blue eyes encapsulate me once again.
"Okay, I have something serious to ask you." His eyes flick around my face and he seems excited yet still slightly nervous.
"Try me." I'm anticipating something like concert tickets or a football game.
"So Marcus basically told me he didn't want any connections with me anymore, he probably wants to run off with some young, naïve model or something. Anyways, he told me he'll get me any apartment I want for college, one in Chicago. I told him that it had to be big enough so that my girlfriend could live with me. I found you had made a list of all the things you wanted in an apartment, and in life basically. I read them all one day, when loneliness came and you were away. I found a place with everything on your list and mine. So, I guess, what I'm asking is, will you move in with me for college?" His eyes are wide with a child-like shyness, and he bites his lip out of a bad habit.
"Tobias, I would love to, but remember I have to ask my parents."I search his face for a response. "I'll try as hard as I can so that I can live with you, okay?" I hope he doesn't angry with me.
"I love you." He kisses me hard, with a passion and it takes a lot for me to pull away slightly so that I can speak.
"Tobias, I'm in love with you. Don't ever leave me, alright?"
"I wouldn't be able to." I kiss him lightly again and when his tongue runs only my lip asking for entrance, I decide to play with him. I pout on his lips and pull away.
"Let's go watch a movie, I wanna watch Tangled." I drag him to the couch and start the movie and when he tries to pull me onto his lap I dive to the other side of the couch and put a pillow up in defense. He just shakes his head and redirects his attention to the movie and when I see he's enthralled in the glowing hair up Rapunzel, I pounce. I tackle him straight on and can't stop laughing as I have him pinned with my knees on either sides of his hips and my hands on his forearms. I smirk at him while he stares wildly at me. I lean close to him, as if I'm going to kiss him, but when he reaches his head up to meet my lips I pull away and raise an eyebrow.
"Fine then." He swiftly flips me off of him and onto my back, so that he is barely not crushing me and holding me in place. How the hell did he do that? Oh right, he's like three times bigger than me. I keep forgetting. "We'll do it my way then." He gives me a small smile before fitting his lips with mine and my will to fight back and tease him vanishes with his touch. I'm only eager for more.
I awaken with a craving for Einstein's bagels. Why do I always want them? Who cares, I'm getting bagels, one way or another. I lift my head off of Tobias' warm, bare chest and look up to his face. I alternate between kissing his neck and softly saying his name until his aquamarine eyes flutter open.
"Morning beautiful." His smirk melts my heart over and over.
"I want Einstein's. Can we go?" I sound like a hopeful seven year-old. He just shakes his head and lifts me up and walks into the closet, toting me, piggy-back style.
"I want a big hoodie and I think I have a pair of running shorts in that cabinet." I gesture to a cabinet where I keep some of my more revealing clothing. Whoops. We dress quickly and I allow my eyes to linger on his abdomen for a moment longer than socially acceptable.
"See something you like?" He smirks and I'm in the mood for games.
"Nope. I just want bagels. First one to the motorcycle gets to drive?" I say mysteriously. I'm closest to the closet door so I have an advantage.
"Fine then. Go!" I dash for the door and close it on my way out, hoping to stall him for a moment. I actually feel like I'm winning as I see the front door down the foyer, but suddenly, I feel strong arms wrap around me and take a hard turn right. I grumble how this is against the rules but, of course, I can't do anything about it. I feel my body hurdling through the air and I land square on the couch and I can't believe that asshole threw me. I scramble back to my feet and out the door but by the time I am on the driveway Tobias is sitting on the motorcycle waiting for me.
"That should be against the rules." He just laughs as we speed away to the closest Einstein's.
"I'm going to the bathroom, why don't you just order my usual, alright?" He says as we enter the bagel shop.
"Okay." I peck him on the cheek before heading into the line. As I look up to the cashier to order, my gaze stops and turns cold. Eric checks me out from behind the register.
"Hey baby, what can I get you?" His smile is snake-like and sly, he's such a bastard.
"Two Asiago cheese bagels toasted with plain shmear, a chai latte, and a black coffee. Oh, and don't call me that." I glare as hard as I possibly can.
"Whatever you say sweetheart. You can pay at the next register." He flashes me a toothy smile and I stalk away. Tobias comes up behind me and puts his hand around my waist protectively.
"Tris, what's wrong? What's up with you and Eric?" He sounds calm but I know inside he already wants to kill Eric without even knowing what he tried with me.
"I'll explain our 'history' when we eat." I'll tell Tobias, but I don't really want Eric to die. Oh well, sucks to be him.
Cliffy! Anyways, was it okay I hope? Anyone know the song lyrics hidden in here? Review review review!
