A/N: Sorry that this chapter is so late! My uncle is here from Wisconsin and I had a church play to do every night. I've also been building a 3D city for AP. I even have a research paper to write and a biology packet to do. And I'm supposed to be on Spring Break ugh. I just want to let you guys know that I've also been really upset these past few days. My dog got hit my car and she's alive but whe has all these burns and it's just really bad but I can't afford a vet and I feel so helpless… Anyway, I'm sorry for the late chapter. Thank you guys for 150 reviews! It made me so happy. Please continue to leave amazing reviews! I'm typing this chapter on my surface because I don't have my laptop with me so excuse any errors. I'll try to make sure there isn't any but I can't guarantee it. Enjoy this chapter and please review!

I wrote this short story for English that I also had to perform for the class and I kind of based it mostly off of TMI characters but my group wouldn't let me name them Clary and Jace… But if you want to read it, feel free to PM and I'll send it to you! I'd love feedback on it! Let me know!

Tris' POV

The week passed by fairly quickly with no other abnormal activities. It is now Saturday morning and I rise slowly from my bed. I yawn, stretching my arms above my head as I stand up. I walk downstairs in my pajamas and head quietly to the kitchen. I notice Tobias standing in front of the oven, cooking blueberry pancakes while mindlessly humming some random tune. I smirk to myself as I quietly run back upstairs.

I quickly sprint to the bathroom and grab a water gun from under the sink. I grab a container of mayonnaise that I keep under the bathroom sink (for prank purposes) and pour it all into the large water gun. I grin to myself, knowing that Tobias hates mayonnaise more than anything.

I run back downstairs quietly and peek my head around the wall into the kitchen. Tobias is still doing the same thing he was five minutes ago. I quietly creep out from behind the wall and aim the gun at him.

"Toby," I sing mockingly.

He spins around just as I pull the trigger and the mayo goes all over his chest. He yells and looks down at his chest, then back up at me.

He shakes his head slowly, smirking, "You shouldn't have done that, Trissy."

I screech as he runs at me full speed. Before, I have time to run, he wraps his muscular arms around my small body tightly, making escape impossibly. I yell and giggle as he gets the mayonnaise all over me.

"Tobias, stop!" I yell, giggling and hitting his chest playfully.

He releases me but keeps his hands placed on my shoulders. He smiles down at me lovingly. He leans down and places a slow, soft kiss to my lips and I return his smile.

"Now go take a shower, you smell horrible," I exclaim.

He rolls his eyes and says sarcastically, "I wonder whose fault that is."

I shrug and laugh as he reluctantly makes his way upstairs for a shower.

xXx

After we eat the blueberry pancakes that Tobias made, we take refuge on the couch. Tobias is sitting on the couch like a normal person while I am laying down with my head in his lap as he runs his fingers through my hair.

My phone chimes, signaling a text message which completely ruins my relaxed phase. I pick it up, only to see that it is a text from Christina.

Get dressed, you're going with me to the mall for a little while. Don't bother complaining. Be over in 15. –Christina

I groan loudly and throw my phone towards the end of the couch. There goes my day of relaxing with Tobias.

"What's wrong, Trissy?" Tobias asks with a playful smirk.

I sit up and turn to face him. I eye him suspiciously as I say, "You know why she's dragging me out today, don't you?"

He smiles innocently and bats his eyelashes, "I have no idea what you're talking about."

I roll my eyes and smack his chest, muttering, "Whatever."

I reluctantly get off the couch and go upstairs, putting on dark jeans and a black v-neck shirt. I head back downstairs just as there is a knock at the door. I groan as I throw open the door. I glare at my best friend to let it be known that I'm doing this against my will.

She rolls her eyes and says, "Bye Four! We'll be back later!"

Christina grabs a hold of my arm, dragging me out of the house and to her car. I climb in the passenger side and cross my arms over my chest, pouting dramatically. Christina climbs in the driver's seat and gives me a look.

"Just go with it, Tris," She begs.

I sigh and put my arms down. I may not want to be here doing this but there is no need to make Christina miserable. I can survive for a few hours.

xXx

When we got to the mall, Christina dragged me into several stores, making me try on practically the whole store. We wasted hours in the stupid stores and now I'm starving. It's about 3:40 and all I want is to return home.

"Christina, can we please leave now? I am definitely not having fun," I complain.

"I guess we can go ahead and leave. I'll just have to drive home slow," She responds.

"What?" I ask, narrowing my eyes suspiciously at her.

"Oh, nothing," She says, jumping up from her seat and practically running towards the exit. I sigh as I get up and follow her out to her car.

xXx

We pull up in my driveway five minutes before 4 o'clock.

"Let's just sit here for a couple minutes," Christina suggests.

I look at her like she's crazy, "We're in my driveway. We could just go sit in the house."

I begin to open the car door but Christina yells, "No, wait!"

"What is your problem today?" I sigh. I get out of the car anyway and begin to walk to the door.

Before I reach the door however, Christina steps in my way, blocking the entrance. "You can enter in about one minute," She demands.

I throw my hands in the air, "Have you lost your mind today?"

She just counts down from ten and then says, "Alright, come on."

My brain hurts from her strange activity but when she moves out of my way, I swing the door open to a dark house. Suddenly, the light switches on, I notice my friends jump out from various hiding places, and there is a loud chorus of, "Happy birthday!"

I stand there in shock, my arms falling limp to my sides. My jaw drops and I just gape at everyone in the room. My eyes find Tobias leaning against the back wall and I stare at him. He smiles warmly at me and my eyes begin to water. A sob tears its way through my chest.

Tobias walks up to me, deep concern overtaking his features, "Trissy, what's wrong?"

He grabs my cheek with his hand and I lean into him. I smile at him as I say, "I forgot it was my birthday." Everyone in the room laughs and I join in, wiping the joyful tears from my face.

I then smack Tobias in the chest. He looks at me, shocked. "What was that for?" He demands.

"I thought you were cheating on me!" I yell, throwing my arms around him. He hugs me back and whispers in my ear, "Never, Trissy. I love you and only you."

I slowly look at everyone else in the room and say, "You guys are great. Thank you all, really." I smile at each of them.

"Wait, there's something else," Uriah says, walking to the kitchen for a moment. He returns with two people whom I've missed dearly.

"Caleb! Mom!" I screech as I sprint to them, throwing myself into their arms for a group hug. They hug me back fiercely.

"I missed you guys so much!" I yell happily.

"I missed you too, Tris," Caleb says, smiling at me.

I look to my mom as she says, "You know I missed you, sweetheart."

I release them and go around hugging each of my friends, murmuring several thank you's in the process. When I reach Tobias, I stand on the tips of my toes and my lips meet his for a chaste but loving kiss. I wrap my arms around his neck and whisper in his ear, "Thank you, you're so amazing. I love you."

I pull away when I realize something. I look at all my friends in confusion, "How did you guys even know when my birthday was? I never said anything."

"Guilty," My mom exclaims, raising her hand.

I laugh and say, "You guys are more than I could have ever asked for."

"Let's get this party started!" Zeke yells. And with that, the best birthday party I've ever had begins.
