I changed the 6th chapter a little because "Sourluck" said it might have been to soon for them to say that they like each other. I agree with that.
I wake up with an amazing feeling. I feel so happy that I don't even notice that I am tired. I look to the person next to me. He's still asleep so I poke him in his side.
'Chris wake up.' He doesn't even notice. He just turns around. 'Chris! Wake up!' Still no answer. I give him a kiss on his cheek and that alerts him; He smiles.
'Hmm I want more.' He mumbles with his eyes closed. So I give him some other tiny kisses over his whole face but avoid his mouth. He puts his hands around my face to hold me still and kisses me on my mouth.
'Now we are officially together,' he says.
'We were already officially together before we got married,' I tip his nose 'Silly you.'
'Yeah silly me.' I crawl closer to him and hold his hand.
'So Mrs. McGarret how does it feel to be married with the most awesome guy in the world?'
'Pretty good. He's handsome unlike you.'
'Auch,' he says with a painful face 'That hurts Mrs. McGarret. '
'You want a kiss on it?' I give him a daring look.
'Yeah better do that.' So I give him a kiss on his chest on the place where his heart is.
I get out of bed and stand in front of the mirror. This is just normal me, no make-up or fancy hair. It almost looks strange in comparison to yesterday. I look at my dress that is carefully hanging on its hanger. Milly did an amazing job.
I dress up in my running shorts and also a jacket just because it is still a little cold outside.
'Hey, I'm going for a run. '
'Are you sure you don't want to come back to bed? '
'Nope' I say making a blob sound at the p. I walk away.
'Please?' I laugh as I am closing the door.
'Bye Chris!'
The running clears my head. I run around the fence two times without stopping, forcing myself to give all of myself. I don't know why but I like going over the edge, tiring myself until I can't go any further. At first it was mostly to hurt myself so I could forget about the other pains I was having but later it just became a bad habit. I have a pretty good condition so it takes a while before I actually get tired.
As I stop I look around. Everyone in the city is already back to work even though our party last night lasted until late. Everyone must be tired for sure. I see Tobias walking by, he carries a bag to his car. He must be going home. I take a little sprint to him.
'Hey,' I say.
'Oh hey,' Tobias says.
'Are you going home?'
'Yes I am. I need to go back to work tomorrow.' He says slightly irritated now.
'Ugh work. I wish I could be free every day.' I laugh. Actually I like working. After I started reading Chris's books I started to develop a love for old books and stories so I now run the library and collect new books once in a while. I love doing it and people appreciate it. The library was abandoned when I first came here because it wasn't something necessary and no one really had time for it but I did so I decided I would take the job.
'Thank you for coming,' I smile 'It was nice to meet you.' I zip open my jacket because the sun is getting out and I was already warm. Tobias stares at the tattoo at my collar bone. It makes me feel uncomfortable .
'I can't do this anymore,' he says suddenly.
'You can't do what?'
'pretend like I don't know you. Like there is nothing going on.'
'What are you saying?'
'You know when I asked you if you wanted to know about the past?'
'Yes,' I say hesitating.
'Now here's the story: I knew you pretty damn good. ' My mouth falls open. It feels like there is no ground under my feet. How could this now happen when I closed that book almost two years ago.
'You did? How?'
'Let's just leave it. You said you didn't want to know.' he gets into his car. He's furious.
'I do! What was my name?!' But he just ignores me and drives away.
'Tobias!' I yell.
I see the dark tanned boy that I immediately recognize as Kieran.
He makes signs to Kieran to open the gate and he does.
'Fuck.' I whisper. Kieran looks at me questioning why Tobias drove away that quick. But In turn around not answering his question.
Instead I walk away. The happy feeling I had just a little hour ago is gone.
The rest of the day I am in doubt whether I want to know the truth or to just leave it like I did before.
I realize that I never had a more difficult decision to make. I don't even notice it when Chris walks in because I am thinking so deep.
'Hey,' he says. I make a little jump because I didn't notice it when he came in.
'Hey!'
'How was your day?'
'Oh it was okay.' I lie. I am a good liar luckily. The one talent I never thought was useful. I don't like lying.
''Good to hear.' He kisses me on my forehead. I decide to ask him.
'Chris, imagine if I had a lead on where I came from, who I was before this, would I have to follow that lead? '
'Yes you should. I mean you left that behind you but I know that deep inside you are still eager to know that. Have you found one?'
'I think so. I want to follow it.' I am talking about an it. If I said him I am sure Chris would ask more questions.
'Do you want me to go with you?'
'No, I think I need to this myself.' He nods.
'Okay I understand. When are you going?'
'Tomorrow morning.' I say without hesitation.
Easy as that, I just made that decision. I'm going to Chicago.
Okay so I gonna rant now.
Have you read the news about Marlene and Uriah in Insurgent? I am going to be real pissed if they cast a white person to play Uriah. That's all for today. Toodles.
