CHAPTER 2
~Tris~
So yeah, I was wrong in my assumptions of this evening being a total freaking disaster. It was just fucking weird. After the crazy shit Eric pulled in my kitchen, things only got crazier.
When Tobias and Jai finally walked in I noticed they were really close and when I glanced back to Eric, he just crossed his arms over his chest and smirked knowingly at me. I just shook my head an grabbed a beer from the fridge and offered everyone the same but Tobias shook his head and grabbed a bottle of wine that he keeps here then poured two glasses and handed one to Jai. My eyes moved back to Eric as I handed him a beer and he just gave me a look that says told you so.
Oh my god, is Tobias into men as well as woman? That thought is on a loop in my mind as everyone takes their seat at the table. Minus Tori and Zeke, that is. They have yet to show up.
Every time I ask her to join Tobias and I for dinner, the bitch is always Late or doesn't show up at all.
"Tris?" I look up from my untouched plate and see Tobias give me a concerned look. "Are you sure you are okay?" He ask as he leans away from Jai and towards me. "I've been trying to get your attention for two minutes. Your phone was ringing, baby." As soon as he tells me this I jump up from the table quickly and move to the kitchen just as fast.
I grab my phone and see that Tori has called me twice now. So call her back and just as I put the phone to my ear Tobias walks into the kitchen giving me a weird look.
"Tris! Why didn't you pick up the first time I called you, or the second." Tori yells as soon as she answers.
"Sorry, I didn't hear my phone ring." I tell her not taking my eyes off of Tobias. "What's up? You should have been here thirty minutes ago."
"Yeah, I'm not gonna make it tonight. Zeke promised his mom that we would have dinner with her tonight so…" she sigh "…Sorry babe maybe next time."
"Yeah, yeah love you bitch." I tell her with a smile, completely relieved that Zeke will not be here adding to all the crazy.
"Love you too hooker." She laughs. "Later babe."
"Later." I tell her before I hang up and look back to Tobias as he walks over and hugs me tightly.
"Is everything okay?" He asks me with his lips against my cheek. I shiver at his touch and for once it's not in a good way.
"Yeah." I sigh and pull away from him and suppress the shiver of disgust that want to escape my body. "Tori and Zeke aren't coming."
"Oh, okay." He grins down at me then pulls me back into the dining room just so I can watch him flirt with a man.
What the fuck is going on?
After Eric and Jai leave for the night, I head upstairs to my bedroom to change into my night clothes and wait for Tobias to make his way upstairs, but after about fifteen minutes of waiting I decide to go check on him.
"Tobias, what are you doing?" I ask when I see him setting on the couch and texting on his phone. "Who are you texting at this hour?"
"Just Zeke…" He smiles but his smile doesn't reach is eyes. "Tris, I'm not feeling so good. I'm gonna head home tonight, okay baby?"
I raise my eyebrows in response. "Okay, Bye." I turn to leave him standing in the living room completely pissed the fuck off. "Lock the fucking door." I mumble under my breath, not really sure that he heard me.
The asshole doesn't even come after me and I know that he knew that I was upset. I feel a tear roll down my cheek as I sit at the top of my stairs and listen to him leave.
"Oh my god! Tobias is into men!" I yell in my empty house over and over again. After about five minutes of my crazy ranting someone knocks on my door. I growl as I get up and make my way down the stairs.
"Did you forget something, asshole?!" I yell as I swing the door open violently, but stop my verbal assault when I see Eric grinning down at me.
"Calm your tits, tiger…" Eric's smile falls and now he's looking at me in concern.
"Sorry sugar. What can I do for you Eric?" I sigh softly before I feel the pad of his thumbs lightly rub under my eyes, wiping the tears away.
"Are you alright, doll?" He asks me in a caring tone before looking over my shoulder.
"Everything is peachy." I laugh without any humor. "So, what's up? Did you forget something?"
Eric smiles down at me. "I came over to see if you or Tobias has seen my brother. I went upstairs to unpack the rest of my clothes and when I came back down to help Jai get some stuff unpacked in the kitchen, he was gone but his truck is still in the drive way, soooo…" He says then stops when I snap my head up and look him in the eye with pure fucking fury.
"Wait here." I growl then run up to my room so that I can change into some black workout clothes and sneakers. Gotta be comfortable to kick a fuckers ass.
I run back down and grab Eric's hand. "Come on, lets go." I tell him as I shut and lock my door then push him towards his driveway. "Which truck is yours?"
"The black one. Why?" He ask as I open the passenger door and jump in. "What the hell is going on, Tris?" Eric asks me as he climbs in behind the wheel and starts his truck. "What are we doing, and where the hell are we going?"
"To my boyfriends house to get your brother?" Eric's eyes go wide at what I tell him.
"Are you fucking serious?" He shakes his head before backing the truck out of his driveway. "Well, where to boss?"
"Just take a left past the gate and I tell you when and where to turn." I mumble as I stare out the window.
Once we pull up to Tobias' house I wipe all the tears from my eyes then jump out of the truck and run up to the door with Eric hot on my heels.
"What's the plan, doll face?" Eric asks then proceeds to laugh as I begin to pound and kick on the door hard. "Damn baby, I love your style." He laughs again just as Tobias opens his door shirtless and his jeans unbuttoned.
"Tris?" Tobias looks shocked as shit as I shove him hard out of my way. I stop in my tracks immediately at the sight of Jai putting his shirt back on and buttoning his jeans.
I'm shaking so hard as turn back to Tobias with a look of murder. "Fuck you, you mother fucker!" I yell just as I bring my fist back and punch him as hard as I can in the nose, then look at Eric's bitch of a brother. "You fucking knew that Tobias and I were together, you sick fuck!"
I can hear Eric yelling at his brother as I storm out of Tobias's house. "That is so not cool Jai. You should be ashamed of yourself." When Eric is finished yelling at his piece of shit brother he runs after me and leads me back to his truck. "Let me see your hand Tris." Eric smiles sadly at me as he grabs my hand and begins to move my fingers.
"Ahhh, mother fucker that shit hurts so damn bad!" I whimper loudly.
Eric sighs as he picks me up and sets me in his truck then buckles me in. He runs around the truck and quickly jumps in behind the wheel.
"You hand is definitely broken, Tris; possibly even shattered. Much like your boyfriends nose." Eric laughs causing me to glare at him for calling Tobias my boyfriend. "Sorry, ex-boyfriend." He grins as he puts the truck in drive just as Tobias come out of his house yelling for me to please wait and let him explain.
"Fuck you asshole!" I yell out of the open window and give him the finger with my good hand right before Eric peals out with squealing tires.
"Where are we going?" I ask him when he turns in the opposite direction of my house.
Eric grabs my hurt hand and brings it to his lips to kisses it gently causing me to shiver at his sweet actions. "I'm taking you to the ER." He keeps my hand in his and lightly caresses it with his soft fingers. Damn this man is entirely too sweet. "I really do think that your hand is completely shattered, Tris." Eric glances at me then shakes his head. "Where the hell did you learn to punch like that?"
I begin to laugh loudly then shiver when I feel his fingers graze my wrist. "Tobias taught me." I laugh loudly in the other wise quiet truck.
"No shit?" He raises his eyebrows and shakes his head.
"No shit, sugar." I grin at him then wince when he touches a very tender spot on my knuckle. "How do you know my hand is shattered?" I ask him after turning my body towards him.
Eric brings my hand up and kiss once more. "I'm an Ex navy seal and I've had my fare share of shattered bones." He laughs then shrugs his massive shoulders. "I'm also really smart." He laughs.
"Really? A Navy Seal? That's really hot, Eric." I shake my head to clear it; wondering why I'm saying this and letting him kiss my hand so much. What in the sam hell is going on between the two of us? "And what does your boyfriend stealing brother do?" I growl at the thought of that shit head.
Eric begin to laugh really hard at this. "My brother's a chef…" He shakes his head and then winks at me. "…and he's a fucking pussy too. So I'm positive you can take him in a fight, and completely kick the shit out of him."
Eric and I both are laughing like crazy as he parks in the parking garage then helps me out of his big ass monster of a truck. Once Eric all but carries me into the ER and gets a nurse's attention, he sets down beside me and throws his arm on the back of my chair then begins to rub my shoulder soothingly as he continues to grin at me.
Eric and I are so close just looking at each other. I feel like I'm floating as I get lost as hell in his gorgeous gray eyes while we continue to stare into each others eyes. Damn his eyes are so fucking captivating and mesmerizing. It's like I'm staring into his soul.
"Your eyes are so beautiful, Tris." Eric licks his kissable lips and my eyes move down to stare at mouth.
We both are leaning in like we're gonna kiss but before our lips touch I hear a throat being cleared. I jump back a little and look up only to see a little old lady in scrubs smiling down at us fondly. I can feel that Eric is still looking at me as the woman begins to speak. "Your friend here said that he thinks you broke you hand."
I feel my cheeks heat up. "Yes ma'am." I smile at her. "Against my ex boyfriend's hard ass head. Pardon my foul language ma'am." The nurse chuckles as she and Eric help me up. The nurse leads me to the back but I stop walking and turn to Eric when I realize that he isn't come with us. "Eric, I really hate hospitals so get your ass up and come keep me company…please?" I point my finger at him causing him to laugh and nod as he jumps up and follows us.
"Yes ma'am." Eric smiles as he walks next to me with his warm hand on the small of my back.
"Your friend is a very handsome man sweetheart." The nurse whispers to me but I know by the way Eric chuckles that he heard her.
"Yes ma'am." I turn and grin up at Eric. "Eric is gorgeous, isn't he." I grin at the man in question causing him to wink at me.
After the Doctor has made a few jokes about not punching brick walls or hard heads, he escorts me to the X-Ray room, only to confirm Eric's diagnosis. My fucking hand is shattered to shit, with a whopping ten broken bones. Great! At least I won't have to have surgery on.
"Wow…" Eric breaks the silence after we're back in his truck and on our way home. "I wonder if Tobias' nose is just as bad as your hand."
"I doubt it…" I laugh hard."…The asshole has a hard fucking head."
"Yeah, no shit." Eric grins at me as he parks his truck in his driveway. "I would offer you a drink but those pain killers that they gave you wouldn't mix well with alcohol."
"Yeah, no shit." I mimic him with a drunken grin as I get out of the truck. Man those meds that the doctor gave me are incredible.
"Come on Leila Ali…" Eric laughs as he places his arm over my shoulder, then grabs my hip with his other hand so that I don't fall and brake more bones. That would suck ass. "I'll walk you home."
As we approach my house I notice Tobias is setting on my door step and holding an ice pack to his nose. I turn to my driveway but I don't see his car, so I turn to the curb and low and behold. I see it in front of the house across the street. Sneaky bastard.
"I thought my right hook was loud and clear! I never want to see you again, you cheating asshole!" Tobias snaps his head up at the sound of my voice and I can't tell if the tears in his eyes are from his clearly broken nose or from actually crying. And I really don't fucking care at this point.
"Tris, baby please let me explain." He pleads in a sad tone before he cuts his eyes to Eric coldly. "Without an audience."
I sigh and turn back to Eric. "It's okay, Eric." I give him a bright smile. "Thank you for taking me to the hospital, sugar." I stand on my toes and kiss his cheek. God, Eric smells so damn good.
"No problem, baby doll." Eric winks at me as he returns the kiss to my cheek but his lips press to the side of my mouth and lingers there for a few seconds. "I'll see you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow." I smile and wave at his retreating form before turning back to the biggest jackass in history, then waving my cast covered hand in his face to get his attention off Eric. "Come on asshole, your ice is melting."
This conversation should be good. I hope I don't brake any more of my bones on Tobias' big ass head.
It would be more than worth it though.
Stay tuned…
