When I wrote this chapter I was knee-deep in the homie cjgwilliams' story Rendevous Full-Length (Which is the ish if you haven't read it yet) So if you are a fan of that story this chapter was inspired by the one shot/chapter Fashionable Rendevous :-)
Christina sighs as runs her hands idly across Uriah's chest. He was lazily playing her hair with one hand as they laid naked in his hotel room. Christina had decided on a whim to apply to graduate school at the Unversity of Georiga. She had secured a position as an assistant coach on their women's team as a graduate assistant. The team wasn't a powerhouse and couldn't stand up against Dawn Staley and the Lady Gamecocks but it was going to give her great experience and paid for her master's degree. She had been excited when Uriah had been selected to the NBA All-Start Game in Atlanta. UGA was only 45 minutes from downtown Atlanta so it was perfect for them to meet up. When Tris was asked to participate it made everything more exciting. She knew the girls were going to give her hell for going with Uriah after the club but she didn't care.
"I missed this" Uriah whispers looking down at Christina. It had been a month since they had last seen each other. Thankfully the head coach at UGA was supportive of Christina missing the game they had that weekend so she could participate in the All-Star Weekend activities.
"I know, I did too. I missed you" She turns and scoots up so she can kiss him softly.
"I wish you were closer to Chicago"
"This won't be forever and you need to get acclimated to the league without me distracting you"
"But you're my favorite kind of distraction" Uriah grins as he tickles her side.
"You really want me to be a live-in girlfriend?" Christina giggles as she makes a poor attempt at getting away.
"No, I mean, see if you can transfer to Northwestern or one of the other schools in Chicago. I'm good for it now that I'm in the league"
Christina shakes her head. She wasn't not going to let this happen.
"I'm going to pay my own way through school, We danced around dating in college for 3 years, we can make this work until I get out of school"
Uriah nodded. He wanted Christina with him and part of him was impressed that she wasn't going to take any kind of handout from him.
"So we are going to keep doing this for another year and a half? Hooking up randomly? Saying it's because we need to be focused? Is there someone else?
Christina can see the questions in his eyes. She knew why he felt that way. This thing between them had started off as fun had grown. Christina hadn't as much as looked at anyone else in years, she wanted Uriah and only him. There was no doubt about that.
"You can be straight with me Chris" He pushes. He was in love with her, if he needed to get out now, he just needed to know.
Christina sat up and looked at him and it almost broke her heart to see the uncertainty and hurt in his eyes. She knew how tough things were in college and she listened to how intense things were now in the NBA, she wanted to give him every chance to succeed.
"Uriah, there is no one else I promise. I really wanted to do this school thing myself and UGA gave me the best option. I'm not going to let you pay for my school. I...want us to be together."
Christina runs her hand over his and they raise their hands in front of them and press their palms together. They did this often after making love. Christina's hand was tiny compared to his but it always felt so intimate.
"I love you, Chris, I know long-distance relationships are tough but I want to try" Uriah admits deciding to be brave.
Christina sighs. She loved him that much she was sure of. What did she have to lose by giving them a real shot? If they could make it through this, maybe they could make this last.
"I love you too" she whispers.
Uriah pulls her to him to give her a long kiss. Adjusting to the NBA had been tough but Christina motivate and supported him. He just needed her.
"What time is the skills challenge?" Christina asks looking at the clock seeing that it was already after 9 am.
"Not until 4, do you need to get back to the girls? I'm surprised they aren't blowing up your phone looking for you" Uriah sighs as he leans back on the pillows and strokes Christina's back as she stretches.
"They know I'm fine because I'm with you. I do want to spend time with them. Tris and Lynn only have a few days before they go back to Europe. We don't all get to be together like this often now"
"Yeah, I know what you mean, it feels like old times"
"So you were holding out on me, why didn't you tell me Tobias was coming?"
"Come on Chris, you know Tris and Tobias are stubborn. Neither one of them want to make the first move and would have backed out if they knew"
"Very true, I hope this does something. How is Zeke?"
"Okay, He and T. have made up, it seems better now. I think now that he and Shauna are going strong he's been more open to them being friends again. I guess because he's not as invested in the whole Tris thing"
"You really wanted Tris to be with T. over Zeke even though he's your brother?"
"I know both of them, and I've known since we were kids Tris and Tobias are supposed to be together. They just gotta work through whatever is going on between them."
Christina nodded as she moved to get up and take a shower. She knew Tris was still very much in love with Tobias. And last night it was very clear Tobias was still in love with her. Now the question was could they work out their issues.
The next day is the celebrity game. Tris has the best time. Her team consisted of Justin Bieber, Chance The Rapper, Vince Carter, Diggy Simmons, Dr. Ken, Bad Bunny, and Rege Jean-Page. The coach is retired NBA player Dewayne Wade.
The other team is A'ja Wilson of the Las Vegas Aces who Tris had gotten to know casually over the past year and really liked, Kevin Hart, Rapper J Cole, Jack Harlow, Adam Sandler, Jalen Rose, and is coached by Sue Bird of the WBNA Phoneix Mercury.
The game is for charity so she has to remind herself not to take it too seriously especially with the comedians playing. She is impressed with Justin and Chance's skills on the court. She was amped about actually playing with Vince Carter and getting to be coached by Dewayne Wade even it was only for fun. Lynn even gets pulled onto Tris's team for laughs.
Tris ends up scoring 20 points despite all the antics. At one point Kevin Hart tried to steal the ball from her and she quickly maneuvered causing him to fall. She passed it to Justin Bieber who made a quick layup off it while half of the other people on the court and on the sidelines were in tears from laughing including her friends in the stands and Uriah and Tobias who were with Will and a few other players they knew. At the end of the day, they raised $50,000 for the Boys and Girls Club in Atlanta which made it even better.
Tris took a shower and changed so she could hang out to watch Uriah in the skills challenge. Uriah asked her to help him warm-up. They played around a bit, she knew Uriah was competitive and wanted to do well even though he was trying not to make a big deal about it.
"You still mad at me?" He asks playfully, passing the ball to her so she can take a jump shot.
She sinks it and one of the ball boys kicks it back to her for another shot. She knew exactly what he was talking about.
"You could have warned me! And don't think I'm not going to get Caleb too because I know he knew too"
"You two are the most stubborn people I have ever met, neither of you would have shown up if I told you"
Tris's ball rolls off the rim and the ball boy kicks it to Tris who passes it to Uriah. He was right after all. She would have panicked and made an excuse.
"So you playing matchmaker?"
Uriah grins as he takes a few dribbles before pulling up for a shot.
"You two belong together Tris, Maybe one day both of you will see it"
Tris rolls her eyes, she was so sick of everyone telling her that they needed to be together when Tobias was the one who didn't want to be with her. She was always shocked that Uriah pulled for her and Tobias to be together more than she and Zeke.
"Yeah make sure you tell him that. He was the one who broke up with me" She says before taking another shot.
She felt her heart quicken when she saw Tobias kicking it with some other NBA players including his Godfather Dell Curry at the other end of the court. She wondered if Marcus would make an appearance but she was sure Tobias still wasn't speaking to him.
She and Lynn do some media together on the sidelines during the skills challenge.
"So you two have remained friends since playing together at Dauntless," the reporter asks
"Yeah, she can't get rid of me, two other members of our freshman class and championship team are here this weekend with us too" Lynn finishes.
"Tris, you were in a high-profile relationship with one of the guards on the Dauntless Men's team, Tobias Eaton. Are you two still in touch, still dating?"
Tris keeps her expression neutral, she couldn't believe after all this time this reporter had the nerve to bring that up.
"I don't know how high profile it was" Tris laughs trying to throw off her discomfort hoping that it didn't show " We grew up next door to each other in Charlotte and were together for a while when we both played at Dauntless. It was a long time ago"
The reporter seemed a bit disappointed that Tris didn't elaborate more but moved on to asking her and Lynn what they anticipated for the upcoming WNBA season.
That night Tris judges the Slam Dunk contest. She finally had the chance to meet Lisa Leslie who was one of her idols and was also judging the contest along with DeWayne Wade, Grant Hill, and Keanan Thompson. Throughout the contest, she was feeling a bit anxious about the party they were going to that night, mainly because of being that close to Tobias again.
That night they all get dressed to head out again for another party everyone does a final check with their outfits.
"Chris you plan on going home with Uriah again tonight" Lynn teases as she laced up her sneakers for the evening.
"Ugh I hate ya'll and No," she says laughing after fastening the strap on her shoe before standing up.
"You love us" Marlene sing songs as she breezes past.
"Stop fidgeting, you look amazing" Christina hisses at Tris.
"I know I've gotten better at the whole fashion thing Chris but I feel like I'm about to flash everyone" Tris whines as she tugs on the purple midi dress she was wearing. It hugged her body tight and shorter than Tris would like but the girls all assured her that she looked sexy.
When they arrive at the party spot feeling great after a few drinks in the room, Tris starts to feel anxious again knowing Tobias would be there. Even though she told herself last night that she needed to get over him, she was still completely attracted to him.
The ladies greet everyone in the VIP Lounge. Just like the night before she Tris catches Tobias eyeing her when he thinks no one is looking. So she decides to play with him a little, making sure to cross and uncross her legs a few times, grinding in her seat when a suggestive song comes on before part of the group heads out onto the dance floor.
At one point Tris finds herself on the dance floor alone. Uriah and Christina are dancing and Marlene was dancing with Caleb. She's about to turn and head back to the VIP section where she sees Zeke and Lynn having an animated conversation when she feels a strong pair of hands slide around her waist.
"You look good Tris" Tobias whispers in her ear as he grinds against her to the beat of the song. She turned to face him, still not eye level with him but with her stilettos on she didn't have to look up as far. The girls had been right, she was getting to him but what did that mean? She puts it out of her mind and decides to just vibe out to the music and dance with him.
When Rockin 'That Thang by The Dream Comes on the slow movements of the song and the way she and Tobias are moving together starts to get to her.
"I still think about that night when I hear this song" Tobias teases and nips at her ear. He had given in, no longer able to stay away from her that night. She was like a magnet. Tobias wasn't lying, he did think about that night and having her this close to him, feeling her grind against him, that's what he wanted.
Tris fights back a groan. She knew exactly the night he was talking about. The last night before the season started. They danced to this same song and went back and had crazy sex for the rest of the night. Tris could feel the ache between her thighs growing. She needed to put some space between them to cool off. She pulls away from Tobias and bites her lip as she looks at him.
"I'm going to go get a drink" She announces hoping to get her shit together and get some separation from him. The way she was feeling if he asked her to go back to his room with him there was no doubt in her mind she would go and that would just confuse things even more.
Tobias looks at her and nods. Before he can say anything Tris practically scurries back toward their VIP section. Tobias was aroused and he knew she was too. Part of him still wanted her but part of him was still prideful about how things had gone down in college. He wasn't ready to jump back into a relationship with her, it terrified him to have her break him but right now, he just needed to take the edge off. His eyes follow her as she goes down a small hallway near the VIP booths to where Tobias assumed were the restrooms.
Tris sees the small private bathroom behind a curtain and takes a look. She couldn't handle a full-out public restroom right now. She needed to cool down and get Tobias out of her head because right now she was only thinking with her clit because Tobias had her all worked up. She gives herself a stern talking to, patting her neck now with a wet paper towel. She takes a look in the mirror adjusting her dress.
This is not a big deal, you were just dancing, it doesn't mean anything. Just stay in the VIP, no more dancing.
Tris walks out of the bathroom and she sees Tobias standing in the hallway leaning against the wall.
"Sorry, I didn't know anyone was waiting," she says, attempting to not look Tobias in the eye as she walks past.
"I was waiting for you," he says in a low voice as he grabs her by the waist pulling her back in front of him. "You've been teasing me all night"
Tris rolled her eyes but on the inside, she was melting, the feel of his hands on her again doing things to her body.
Tobias decides he's done playing. He quickly pushes her into the bathroom and locks the door.
"Tobias, what are you doing?" Tris asks, breathing heavily. She couldn't stop looking at his lips, they were always so perfect. The short beard he had grown accentuated his lips even more.
"I want you, Tris, I know you want me too," He says with an arrogant tone. That same arrogant tone he had when they were younger that made her blood boil but at the same time made her want to kiss him.
"If I remember correctly you were the one who broke up with me," Tris said with annoyance but making no move to walk away. She hated it when he was right, she did want him so badly at this very moment.
"I don't want to talk about the past," He says quietly as he moves closer, looking her in the eye. Tris was against the edge of the sink so she had nowhere to go.
"So we are back to it's what you say, huh?" Tris challenges as she looked him back in the eye, trying not to show how turned on she was.
"And we're back to you having to disagree with me" Tobias pushes back. He knows it's insane but God he missed the back and forth with her. It was doing nothing but making him want her even more.
Tris couldn't help the sharp inhale of breath she had as he picked her up by her thighs and sat her on the bathroom counter next to the sink. She debated if she should let him do this but she wanted it, wanted him. The push and pull made her come alive, she missed it. Part of her was screaming this was a bad idea but she didn't care about that right now. He still hadn't kissed her, he was just looking at her like he was studying her as his hands moved over her thighs and hips lightly.
"You just want to fuck?" Tris asks candidly and Tobias gives a soft chuckle as he moves his hand up the short skirt of Tris's dress and plays with the elastic of her thong at her hip.
"You look so fucking good Tris, You always drove me crazy but why don't I remember you being this damn sexy"
Tris smirks, she definitely had gotten more comfortable over the years to Lauren and Christina's delight wearing heels and body fighting clothing. The black Loubitions she was wearing were evidence of that. It felt good that she still had this effect on him. She looks up at him moving her hands across his chest feeling the muscles. She didn't have to be in a relationship with him to enjoy this she reasoned. Why deny herself the pleasure?
Tobias moves his hands to pull her panties down and stuffs them in his pocket and immediately stands up and rubs his fingers across her clit as Tris pulls his mouth to hers. He wants to taste her but knows he doesn't have time to properly fuck her like he wants to. He would have to make the most of this right now.
Tobias determined to make her break deepens the kiss when she moans. Tris moves her hips atop the sink as his fingers slip inside her.
She hadn't slept with anyone since Zeke, which had been over a year ago now and she craved to be touched. Tobias, knowing what he was doing already had her about to orgasm. Tobias savors every moan from her mouth as worked her with his fingers, grinning against her lips as she gasps as she comes.
The sound of her moaning went straight to his head, he loved that he could still make her feel that way. He pulled down the top of her dress so he could slip her breast out of her bra without taking it off. He suckles for a minute as Tris moans before he moves back up to her mouth.
After a few more passionate kisses, Tobias moves to undo his belt.
"Fuck Tris, I need to be inside you"
"Do you have a condom?" She breathes out, still shaking as she puts her hands on his chest to push him back.
"Come on Tris" Tobias begs almost pouting as he runs his hands up her thighs. She knew that look all too well, but he wasn't going to get his way about this.
"I don't know where you been" she states firmly looking at him pointedly while holding her hand out so he knew she wasn't playing.
Tobias gives her a petulant look and rolls his eyes but still goes in his pocket to pull out one of the two condoms he had placed there for the night just in case anything happened. He hadn't planned on sleeping with Tris but when they started dancing he knew he had to have her that night. She made him come alive. It was like he needed a fix. She was never far from his thoughts no matter how hard he tried. He had thought about her more than once as he climaxed with some of the girls he slept with. He was still so conflicted about how he felt about her even though it had been 4 years since they had been together. But touching her, hearing her moan, feeling her, seeing her smile, it was like he was craving her.
Tris quickly undoes his belt and lets his pants down. He looks at her and licks his lips. She shakes her head with a soft laugh, knowing that he liked when she put the condom on him. He grins wildly when she obliges and hisses in pleasure when she takes him in her hand. He quickly slides into her, with both of them groaning when he does. Tobias was tall enough that the counter was the perfect height for this and gave Tris an angle that made her eyes roll back in her head as he thrust inside her.
"You feel so fucking good, I wish I was raw" Tobias admits as he spreads her legs wider to get better access.
Tris braces herself against the mirror as he pounds into her. She was trying to be quiet but when Tobias lifts her off the sink completely still thrusting into her she lets out a cry.
"Oh God, Yes," Tris fights back the words threatening to spill out. She wants to tell him how much she missed this, missed him. He moves his lips over her neck and licks her earlobe as he sets her back down to steadily thrust into her.
"Say it, Tris," Tobias says huskily in her ear as he slows his thrusts.
"No," Tris panted out as she bit her lip. She knew what he wanted. She would never forget, she knew he got off on it. She didn't want to give him the satisfaction.
"Say it" Tobias demands louder slamming into her in one hard stroke causing her to cry out and clutch him tighter. Her body was trembling with want as Tobias maneuvers to suckle her exposed nipple. She was stubborn, but everything felt so good she gives in to what he wants as her resolve falls apart.
"Por Favor Papi, Te desso ahora," As soon as she said the words, Tris feels her walls flutter. Ever since that night in high school studying for their Spanish final, Tobias would ask her to stay that phrase. Tris started to get off on it too, it was something so personal between the two of them especially since they weren't together.
Tobias grins as he moves his mouth to hers. He braces one hand on the wall between the mirrors and the other on Tris as he picks up his pace again.
"Baby, Oh God" she squeaks out as he pulls out and picks her up. He sets her down and quickly turns her around and enters her from behind.
Tris places one hand on the counter and the other she moves to rub her clit.
Tobias places his hand over hers, feeling Tris clenching around him, knowing she was close.
"Look at me Tris" Tobias grunts as he feels her about to let go and he looks at them in the mirror. Tris had her eyes closed but the looks on her face with her lips slightly parted was one of pure pleasure. He wanted to see her hazel eyes as she came.
Tris lifts her eyes to the mirror where she sees Tobias staring back at her. She doesn't think any other time they had sex it was this sexy, this brazen.
"Tobias!" she felt like she was drowning and everything felt so good. When her second orgasm hits her, she gasps as she falls over the edge still keeping her eyes locked on Tobias through the mirror.
Tobias hangs on for dear life continuing to move in and out of her but finally letting go pulling her closer to him as he shook and emptied himself in the condom.
"Fuck" he sighs with his breath filling her ear, hot and heavy, loving the hazy look Tris had as she bit her lip as she leaned back against him.
Tris holds herself up with her hands on the counter as Tobias rests his head on her shoulder. After a few minutes, they clean up and fix their clothes silently. Tris tries to tame her hair and she looks through her clutch to fix her lip gloss. Eagle-eyed Christina would notice if she was disheveled.
"Can I have my panties back please?" Tris asks when Tobias reaches for the door.
"Nah I think I'll keep them" He laughs as Tris pulls up her fist like she's going to punch him.
"You're such as ass Tobias" Tris narrows her eyes at him. It was such a Tobias thing to do to push her buttons.
"Yeah, but you knew that already," he says arrogantly as he gives her a wink.
"You get on my nerves" she replies and then she decides to really punch him in the shoulder
"Owww" He cries rubbing his upper arm, she did pack a hard punch. He laughs and playfully dodges her next jab as he slips out of the door ahead of her.
Why could he push her buttons like this still? She couldn't lie to herself she had just enjoyed every last second of their encounter together. She adjusts her dress to make sure she looks put together and waits another few minutes before going out.
Christina eyed Tris for the rest of the night, noticing how she kept tugging at her dress, especially when they went to climb into the SUV to go back to the hotel.
"You and Uriah not going at it again tonight?" Lynn asks when they walk through the door after hitting up Waffle House again after the club.
"Ha, no...I wanted to spend some more time with you and Tris before you leave" Christina shakes her head as she takes off her shoes and throws her legs over one of the armchairs.
"This has been so fun," Marlene says mournfully as she flops on the couch next to Lynn. She and Christina were able to see each other all the time but they both missed all four of them being together.
"I'm going to take a shower right quick," Tris announces and scurries to her bathroom.
She washes off the smell of sex. Her mind wanders as she dries off. Had that been a mistake? Tobias just made her brain short circuit. She can't believe she actually had sex in the bathroom of a club. She throws on a pair of sleep shorts and a t-shirt and heads out to the living room where Christina, Marlene, and Lynn are all looking at her.
"What? Why are y'all staring at me?"
"Don't play innocent," Marlene says with a playful attitude as Lynn falls over laughing as Tris stops and looks like a kid who got caught stealing from the cookie jar.
"You ain't slick, not one bit" Chris announces as she crosses her feet hanging over the arm of the chair she was sitting in.
"You and T. totally fucked in the bathroom," Lynn says matter of factly.
Tris groans and goes to sit in the other chair opposite Christina as her friends giggle. All of their friends had predicted this would happen after the first night noticing how Tris and Tobias were both seemed to feed off the other's energy.
"Was it still good?" Marlene asks, taking a swig of her water.
Tris had gotten used to over the years that they would press her for details in college. She would get so flustered that sometimes they would wear her down. Marlene was more reserved in her comments respecting that she was with Tris's brother.
"So fucking good" Tris whines and flops back into the chair. There was no use in denying it.
"I knew it, I knew it!" Christina exclaims sitting up in the chair bouncing.
"I can't believe I did that," Tris sighs, covering her face with her hands. After everything she had gone through with Tobias, she let him fuck her in a public bathroom.
"So does this mean…." Marlene asks hesitantly.
"It didn't mean anything," Tris shrugs.
"Keep telling yourself that," Lynn says as she gets up to get ready for bed.
Tris closes her eyes, tonight with Tobias didn't mean anything. It was a good time, that was it but the problem was she wanted it to mean something.
