The after love story: TRIS & TOBIAS FOREVER!!!

Chapter 3

Tobias's pov.

Me, Tris and the others finally get back to Chicago. Zeke and Shauna are in the front seat and holding hands. Christina is sitting in Will's lap. Tris is right beside me with her head on my shoulder. I think she might have fallen asleep. Al is just sitting right beside Lynn. It's really tight in the truck.

When we get to the dauntless compound, I wake Tris up.

"Hay beautiful. It's time to get up. We're at the compound." I say as sweetly as I can. She shifts her head and just stars at me with those beautiful big brown eyes. She still looks exhausted, even though she was in a coma for a year and had all the sleep in the world.

We get out of the truck and walk to my apartment hand in hand and I keep her tight against my body to make sure she won't leave me ever again.

We have to go to Zekes apartment at 6:00pm for candor or dauntless. It's now 3:37. So we have a little bit to relax and talk.

"I'm gonna go for a shower. Since its been a while since I had one." yells Tris from our room. She hops in and while she's in there I make some dauntless cake. You can't leave the cake in the oven for to long cause then its not fluffy and moist. Tris comes out and she's has a big grin on he face from ear to ear.

"You made dauntless cake. And it smells wonderful." She says

All I do is give her a thankful smile and hug her. Then the timer goes off.

"Oh crap. I can't leave that in any longer." I run to the kitchen and pull it out and let it cool. When it's cooled down I cut some pieces and hand a plate to Tris.

When we're done we put our plates in the sink and "that was really go-"

I cut her off with a simple kiss. She kisses me back hard that it almost hurts, and I put my hands on the small of her back and she twist her fingers in my hair. She pushes me towards our room and kicks the door shut with her heel. And I know she loves me even though she doesn't say it as much as I say it to her but this feels right.

My fingers go up her back and curl into her hair. Her hands are shaking a little bit... but I don't think she really cares. She draws my shirt into her fists, tugging me closer.

I forget she's another person;instead it feels like she is part of me, just as an essential as a heart or an eye or an arm. She pulls my shirt up and over my head.

My hands clutch at her shirt and she is removing it, but then she pulls back.

I look at her, not like I'm waiting for an explanation, but like she is the only thing in the room that is worth looking at and valuing.

I smile, a shy smile. Then I put my hands on her waist and I draw her toward me. I bend down and kiss her between my fingers and whisper "beautiful" against her stomach.

I stand and press my lips to hers, my hands on her bare hips, my thumb slipping under the top of her jeans. She touches my chest, leans into me.

"I love you, you know," She says.

"I know," I reply

With a quirk of my eyebrows, I bend over and wrap my arm around her legs, throwing her over my shoulder. And a laugh burst from her mouth, half joy and half nerves I'm guessing. And I carry her across the room, dropping her on the bed. I lie down next to her and she runs her fingers over the flames wrapping around my rib cage. She is mine and I fit my mouth to hers.

--------------------Time passes-----------------

I try to get up but I realize I can't. Tris is holding my arms so tight it kind of hurts. I look at her sleep for a little while before she wakes up.
"Why are you staring at me Tobias???" she asks me

"Because your beautiful. And I can" I say back.

"We have to get ready to go to Zekes for candor or dauntless." I say and get up

She gets up and we both get dressed and get ready to go.
