"Tris hey," I touch the back of my hand to her forehead, "wake up."
She stirs, mumbling something incoherent under her breath.
"C'mon Tris." Her eyes open, and I meet them. "It's almost noon."
We didn't go to school again today. We haven't been since Monday. It's Thursday. She was, is, still pretty shaken up about the fear landscape thing, and I don't blame her. Something like that should never happen. Ever.
She licks her lips and wrinkles the bridge of her nose, "can we just lay here for a little while?"
I give her a half smile and nod, she pulls the covers up and I climb the bed with her.
Once we are settled, She closes her eyes, "thank you, tobias." I feel her hand slide up my arm and grip the sleeve of my shirt. "I don't tell you enough how appreciative I am of you. So, thank you."
I touch my lips to her forehead and run my palm down her hips, her legs are bare from wearing one of my old T-shirts. I feel my heartbeat pick up. "I wasn't going to tell you this before because I thought I would scare you, but I know better now." Her blue eyes meet mine and I swallow down the anxious nerves in my throat. "I think I'm in love with you. I know that I gave it away at Chris' party, but I feel diffrent than I did there. It's stronger. And I..." I run my hand through her hair, "I just thought you should know."
She smiles and pulls herself closer to me. I didn't expect her to say it back, I knew she wouldn't, but thats the only thing I want- the only thing I have wanted for the last seven years. I inhale her scent and squeeze her hand. before I can do anything, she places her lips on mine. I feel her everywhere. Her palm on my chest, her bare leg smooth on my arm. Everything she is, is everything I want to be. She is strong and smart and brave and powerful. My fingers tangle in her hair. She kisses me harder and sighs quietly in my mouth.
I pull away, knowing that if this goes any further, I won't be able stop. She gives me a knowing smile and closes her eyes. I fall asleep with my heart pumping in my chest.
