Tris and stiff have been gone for hours. It is almost dinner time now. I talk with Will and find out that he is a gentleman. I like how nice he is to me, even though i have been nothing but a jerk to him. I think i like him.
"What are they doingggg?" i drag out. I cant wait to get the details on how their date went.
"They are probably getting it on. You know.." Will says trailing off, suggetedly and wiggling his eyebrows. I laugh.
"Stiff is too stiff to do that. They both are. They dont even hold hands in public." Lynn says.
"No. The quieter they seem, the wilder they really are. I bet they are getting it on, right now." Zeke says. Uriah nods in agreement.
"Wanna make a bet?" He says. Everyone nods "Whoever wins gets to dare the loser to do anything. You cannot back out.
"I bet they are not." Lynn says first.
" Are." Zeke says.
"Are." Uriah says.
" Not." I say.
" Doesn't anyone think it is weird that we are making a bet on our friend's intamate lives?" Will says.
"No." Everybody said at the same time. He shakes his head.
"Are you gonna bet or not?!" Zeke says impatiently.
"I vote, no." He says. I grin.
"I vote yes." Shauna says.
"I vote no." Marlene says, blushing slightly at the topic.
"What are you guys voting on?" a voice says behind me. I freeze.
"Nothing, Tris. We, uhh-" Zeke stumbles over his words.
" We bet on how long it would take for you guy to come back." Will says. Stiff looks amused.
"Did you miss us?" He asks, his eyes filled with laughter. Almost everyone nodded.
"What were you guys doing?" They both blushed. I saw everyone give each other knowing looks. That is when i study their appearance. Both of the have puffy, slightly red eyes and their lips are a little swollen. I don't see signs of them actually doing anything though.
"We went to a special place and gave each other gifts." Tris says, softly. She looks so happy next to Stiff and He looks so happy next to her. They are holding hands, loosely.
"Oooooh! What did you get?!" i ask, eagerly. Tris holds up her hand and shows a plain black band around her other ring finger. I look at it blankly.
"We got promise rings, both of us and He wrote me a poem." Tris says, happy. Stiff, looks just as happy as her. She was happy over a poem? Awww! That is sweet. These two are really starting to set my expectations in a relationship really high..
"So you guys did not do the 'reproduction process'" Zeke said, disbelief written all over his face. Tris and Stiff blush.
"We have never done that. We are waiting until marriage." Tris says.
"You guys have been dating for two years and have never done it?!" Uriah says. Lynn smirks.
"I told you, idiots." She says.
"Our relationship is not based on pure physical need. I love Tris for herself and it just so happens that she also has a beautiful body too." Stiff says. Tris blushes as hard an cherry.
"Toby." She says, looking away. Wait.. Toby? Is that stiff's real name?
"What? I was just stating the truth." He says, squeezing her hand.
"Toby? Is that your name?" Shauna asks. They both stiffened.
"No. Only Tris calls me that. It is a name she came up with when we were 8." Stiff says.
"Sorry. I didn't mean to say that aloud." She says, to stiff. He smiles at her and shrugs.
"Honestly one of us was going to call the other by our nicknames at one point. It is fine as long as you guys dont start calling me that. I want that name to be for Tris and Tris only." Stiff says. Everyone nods in understanding.
"What nicknames do you call her?" I ask.
"Well i am the one who came up with Tris but i have always called her B." Stiff says.
"Do you have any pet names?" Uriah asks.
"Pet names?" Tris asks. I sigh.
" Dear, Darling, honey, my sweet-" Zeke was cut off by Stiff.
"Ohhhhh! That is what those are called." He says, thoughtfully. "I call her, my love."
"I call him the same thing" Tris says. Awwwww! Will sighs.
" You guys are really making me feel like a sack of potatoes." He says.
" A sack of potatoes?" Marlene asks.
"Just all Rusty and plain. Looking at you two make me sick. You guys are making me set serious relationship goals." He says, huffing. I laugh at his expression.
"Who knew two stiffs would be our relationship goal holders." Lynn says, rolling her eyes.
"Yeah, no kidding. This is a serious turn of events." Shauna says, teasingly.
We talk for a while before going back to the dorms. As we walk out i feel the like there are eyes boring in the back of my neck. I look back and see a couple of boys and a girl that i think are named Albert, Eric, Peter, Molly, and Drew. They are glaring at us. Eric's and Peter look the most leithal. Albert looks sad. I glare back at them. What is their problem?
