At some point during my slumber I felt someone climb into my bed. I froze. My sheets were being taken off. Then I heard the tearing of tape. I opened my eyes and jumped when i saw Tobias leaning over me.

"Sorry, did I wake you?" He said while sitting on his knees.

"No, just scared me a little I guess." I shrug.

"Do you think you could lie on your side, I need to change a bandage."

"Umm." I manage.

"Here, I'll help you." He grabbed my hand, held my back and shifted my body in one quick movement. I winced. He adjusted the pillows.

"I think this one is actually my fault." He said as I felt the hydrogen peroxide make contact with my skin. "I think you scraped your back on something metal while I was pulling you up. Sorry about that."

"Don't be sorry." I managed. "Actually thank you, for all that you've done for me. You saved my life, I'd much rather have a cut than be swimming with the fishes."

"Me too. I mean, I'm glad you're here too. As long as you don't ignore me, I won't let Max or Peter near you again." He finished bandaging my cut and sat next to my legs facing me. He started massaging my swollen foot.

I whimpered.

"Does that hurt?" He implored.

"No it's just." I bit my lip. "It does but it feels good." He continued keeping his eyes locked on mine, trying to read my face. Or at least that's what I was hoping he was doing. I thought about that. Do I really care anymore that he obviously likes me? It scares me but he is growing on me.

"It's getting late and you should get some sleep."

"I was actually kind of hungry."

"I don't know if they have food out at ten. "

"They do."

"Okay, I'll be right back." My eyelids started to droop but my stomach would scare them awake. Tobias came back and I swear if I would've tackled him for the tray of food. He climbed next to me.

"I was hoping we could share, I'm pretty hungry too." I nod me head and he smiles. Just as we finish the food I feel my eyelids falling again. Tobias starts to get off the bed.

"I'll be close if you need me."

"No, don't sleep on the floor." I blurt. He cocks his head, confused. "I mean, you might hurt your back."

"So you want me to sleep in your bed?"

"Um, yea." His eyes narrowed in thought as he regained his previous position. He slid away from me a bit, turned off the light and climbed under the covers. I fell asleep quickly knowing that Tobias was close. In the middle of the night I was awakened by Tobias who was talking in his sleep. At first I thought it was cute until I heard what he was saying.

"No... Stop... Please... I'm sorry..."

I managed to shift to my side. I touched his face and tried to shake him awake.

"Marcus." He shoots awake and grips my wrist. My eyes widen in fear. His eyes soften.

"Tris I am so so sorry." He kisses my hand. "I'll go sleep on the floor if you want."

"No, please stay. It was a dream, I understand." He lies back down. I wiggle under his arm and wrap mine around his muscular body. I can feel him tense and then relax as his arm wraps around me. I listen to his heartbeat until I can drift off to sleep.
