A/N Hey guys I know I know it's been a while! I'm not going to give my usual excuses cuz they are always the same. BUT ITS THANKSGIVING BREAK WOOOOHOOO! OH MY GOD GUYS WHO SAW MOCKINGJAY! GUYS IT PAINED ME SO MUCH! PEETA LIKE OH MY GOD!
"Hey I know you!" I hear a voice behind me while I walk through the store searching for Mom.
"Huh?" I say turning around to see a guy standing smiling at me. "You do?"
"Yeah! I went to your school last year, my sister goes there now."
"So we've never met?"
"Well no, but now we have. I've seen you when I drop my sister off, you're new."
"I guess sorta." I say looking behind me, I need to find Mom.
"You probably have to get going but would you like to get some coffee sometime?"
"Oh uh, I can't I have a boyfriend, you may know him. Four."
"Four yeah I know him. Cool guy, lucky to have you. Here take my number anyway. Just friends." He says with a smile and writes his number on my palm, he seems nice and he's really good-looking, tall, green eyes, light brown hair, looks strong too, but I don't need any more friends.
"Okay, uh see ya um...?"
"Oh sorry I know your Tris, I'm Dean."
"Nice to meet you Dean." I say and walk off to find Mom. I see her standing at a checkout, I walk up to her and put the bread on the conveyor belt.
"Where were you?"
"I ran into someone."
"Oh I see." We walk out of the store and pile the grocery's in the car, she starts the car and begins to drive. "So how are you and Four doing."
"You know to tell you the truth I don't know."
"What do you mean?"
"Well. I mean I guess we are fine more distant I guess, we don't talk much, it's fine though."
"How long until he leaves?"
"Next weekend."
"Really? Already!?"
"Yup."
"You know I would let you go. I do trust you but I mean the whole summer it's not right."
"What if I went part of the summer, like the first month or so?"
"I'll talk to you father."
"Really!? Oh my god mom are you serious!?"
"Yeah! Just don't get your hopes up, never know what your dad will say."
"I know, I know." I say to excited to even think of him saying 'no'. Mom pulls into the drive way, I grab some of the bags and lay them on the table inside than run up to my room.
"Hello?"
"Chris! I might be able to go with Four after all! Just for like a month maybe!"
"OH MY GOD! really!? What did Four say?!"
"I haven't told him yet."
"TRIS! Are you crazy, don't call me first call him!" She hangs up, I know she's right I don't know why he wasn't the first person I would call. I dial his number and wait.
"Hey Tris." He says in a sleepy voice.
"Did I wake you?"
"Yeah it's fine though. What's going on?"
"Sorry, uh I can call back." Why does it seem everything is tense all the time between us. I don't like it.
"No it's fine what is it?"
"Uh, can we meet up somewhere?"
"Yeah. I can come pick you up. Is everything okay?"
"Yeah its okay. Text me when you get here."
"Alright. See you soon."
"Yeah. See ya."
"Tris."
"Yeah?"
"I love you."
"I know you do." I say with a smile. "I love you too."
"See ya." I hang up first and run down stairs.
"Mom, Four's gonna pick me up, we're going to go talk."
"Okay. And Tris, remember it's a maybe, I have to wait for your dad to get home."
"I know. You will do everything you can to make it a yes right?"
"Yes I will." I thank her and walk back up to my room. I lay on my bad, I can't get this hopeful feeling out of my chest, but I love it, the feeling brings comfort. My phone goes off minutes later and I know it's Tobias. I run down stairs and out the door, I see him standing by the passenger door, he opens it as I walk up to him. I wrap my arms around him and hug him, I hold him close to me and breathe in his scent.
"What's this about?" He says hugging me back.
"I just love you so much. I can hug you if I want right?"
"Of course, it's just been a while I guess." He pulls away a little and looks down at me. "I missed you." He smiles.
"I know. " I say and get in the car, he walks around and gets in the driver seat.
"So whats going on?" He says pulling into the parking lot at the park. I open my door and he follows me. I walk with him around the park not saying anything.
"My mom's talking to my dad tonight."
"About?"
"Me, going with you."
"I thought that was a no."
"It was, but it might not be if it's just for like a month."
"Really?!" He says, I can see his eyes light up, he stops and grabs my arm stopping me too.
"Yeah." I nod. He lets out a small laugh or sigh not sure which but I know he's happy. I am too I'm more excited, than happy. He pulls me close to him embracing me in a hug.
"That's the best new's I've heard. I was terrified when you said you wanted to meet up."
"Why would you be terrified?"
"I don't know. I guess it was the fact we haven't talked in a couple of days, and it felt awkward. I don't know maybe it was just me." I know what he means, I was expecting things to go south here really soon, I felt like I couldn't stop it and maybe I would be the one to do it.
"I know. I've felt the same. But we're okay right?"
"More than okay Tris. I love having you with me." I stand on my toes and lightly kiss him.
"Same goes for me." I say and grab his hand and continue walking, his hand slides out of mine and around my waist pulling me closer to him, he plants a kiss on the top of my head as we walk back to his car. I hear my phone start to ring and move away a little to grab it, I look at the screen Mom's calling. "It's my mom." "Hello?"
"Tris, honey, I just talked to your dad."
"And?"
"Come home please."
"Mom?"
"He want's to talk to you."
"But mom is it a yes?"
"Just come home. Bring Four inside as well."
"Okay, we're on our way." I say and hang up. "My parents...or my dad wants to talk to us." I give him a small smile.
"Alright." He says and opens the door for me, I get in.
"Mom, Dad we're here." I call out, my parents come from the kitchen and sit in the living room with us. Tobias and I sit close together on the couch, I grip his hand as Dad sits down and looks at us with a blank face.
"You know I would do anything for you Tris." He says, I nod. "You mom and I talked. I don't like you going away that long with your boyfriend. It's not just you Four it's any boy." Tobias nods and gives him a shy smile. "I trust you two I really do. Tris can go-"
"OH my god dad really!?" I scream running over to him and hug him.
"But!" He says I sit next to him smiling. "You can only go for 6 weeks." I can feel myself start to cry, I try to fight it but I can't.
"Dad, Mom Thank you guys so much!" I say and hug them both, that's more time than I thought I would get. I run over to Tobias and wrap my arms around his neck, he holds me tightly.
"Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Prior." Tobias says, they nod and leave the room, he looks at me with a smile. "You can come."
"I can come!" He picks me up and spins me a little bit then sets me down kissing me lightly, he looks around than takes my hand and pulls me outside. "What?" I say when he closes the door.
"I just wanted to kiss you again, without having to worry." I laugh as he kisses me harder than last time. His lips are warm against mine, I forgot how longs its been since we kissed, how much I've actually missed it, missed having him in my arms and his lips on mine.
I've missed him, but he's been here the whole time. I guess you can miss someone even when they're right next to you.
Wow! I wrote that really fast, I forgot how much my words can just flow! Hope y'all liked it! YAY SHE CAN GO! WOOHOO! :)
