Chapter 18

Tris' POV

I slowly opened my eyes to a blinding light. Groaning in annoyance I tried to put an arm up to cover my face, only to find that someone was holding it. "Tris?" I looked over at the person.

"Tris!" Luke exclaimed and jumped onto the bed, straddling me and immediately cupping my face.

"What the fuck are you doing?" I asked with a hint of amusement. "First off, you can't just like, bite me in the neck and then expect everything to be okay afterwards!"

His smile turned into an arrogant smirk, "I didn't bite you, babe. I marked you."

Humourlessly laughing, I said, "Dude, you can't just go around biting people and then try to make it sound less bad by calling it marking. Okay? I can't just bite your finger and then say I marked it. It's absurd, and it's quite stupid. And please get off of me!"

Luke's only reply was the shake of his head and a light chuckle. He sort of flung his body to the side a bit so that he landed lying next to me. "Well, I'm not here to explain it."

My annoyance turned to confusion. Why was he being a dick all of a sudden? I decided to go along with it seeing as how I barely had a choice.

We laid there for about an hour or so, simply enjoying each other's presence.

"I missed you, you know." Luke murmured as he suddenly rolled over, peppering kisses along my jawline. "Of course you did." I shamelessly snorted.

"Did you miss me?" Luke began to work his way down to my neck, eventually finding a spot and sucking harshly.

My breath caught in my throat as I tried to suppress a moan, "I guess I did."

"Mhmm." He blew onto the hickey that now set it's place onto my neck.

Luke brought his head back up and looked me in the eye, "I love you, you know."

I couldn't speak. We barely knew each other for a month and he's already claiming he loves me. Now how does that work? I titled my head to the left.

"How so?"

"You know that we're..." He drifted off suggesting to the word that he knew I felt uncomfortable with, "Right?"

"Of course I know, but it's still quite too soon for me."

"You don't have to say the words back until you're ready. But I just wanted you to know that I love you. Now wait right here, I'm gonna get you a muffin."

Luke pecked my nose before falling off of the bed, and running out the door to get me a muffin.

Would it be that hard to love him?

A/N

Hey guys sorry for the late update! I didn't really know what to write so I've been putting this off for a while. But I promise I'm trying to get better!

Anyways, I love you guys!
