Ferris Wheels

Chapter nine

Tris pov

I wake up in one of Tobias' shirts with my face buried in his bare chest. I put my hands on his stomach and look up at him. I see him looking down at me and I feel his hands on my butt. I smile and he smiles back. Last night was fun. Sure we didn't have sex but I had fun pleasuring him.

"Good morning beautiful." Tobias speaks first I put my finger on his mouth and sigh.

"If you don't acknowledge it. It will go away and I can lay in bed with you longer." I say kissing his chest and rubbing my hands up and down his abs.

"No Tris, we have to get up. Plus I am taking you on a date tonight." he says and rolls out of bed. I shiver at the sudden coldness. I get out and grab clothes for today. I see him grab some as well. I grab his arm and pull him to the bathroom. He looks at me and I pull off the shirt. I kiss Tobias after turning the shower on. He drops his boxers and we step in the shower. I giggle and grab some of his soap. I rub my hands together and start to wash his body. He rises off and grabs my brown sugar and peach soap. He starts to wash me. When he rubs my boobs I moan and he laughs. He kisses me and I rises off. I grab his shampoo and wash his hair while kissing him. He pulls away and rinses off. He washes my hair and we step out. Tobias grabs a towel and wraps it around me. I wrap one around his waist. We dry ourselves off and dress. We walk out of the apartment and to the cafeteria smiling. We walk in and grab our food. We sit down and everyone stares at us.

"Wow, I've never seen Tris smile this much in about six months." Christina says and I look at her.

"Well I never had a reason to for the past six months. Of course no one would understand what I was going through. You all had your loved ones here safe with you while mine was off killing my brother and his friends." I say and I start to tear up. My parents will never talk to me once they realize that Tobias killed Caleb. I wipe the tears away and push my food around with my fork.

"Tris, what's wrong?" Tobias asks and I shake my head.

"Tris, you need to tell us what's wrong so we can help." Christina says and I just stand up and walk away. I walk to the tattoo parlor and I start to sketch while Tori fills the ink. Someone walks in and I walk to the front to start. I see Tobias. I sigh and cross my arms.

"Let me guess. You aren't here to get a tattoo?" I say and he shakes his head. I follow him out and look at him.

"What was wrong earlier?" He asks and I hear someone call my birth name. I look up and see my mom. I look at her and I start to cry. I back away from my mother and she looks at me.

"Beatrice? Honey, what's wrong?" she asks and Tori walks out. Tori hugs my mom and Tobias look at me. I shake my head and turn. I run. I run out of the compound and jump onto a train. I sit in the corner and close my eyes. I hide my face in my knees and pull my hood over my head. My black clothes blend in with the wall.

Tobias pov

Tris ran away. Her mother looks at me and I sigh.

"Mrs. Prior, I am so sorry. I have some things to explain." I say and she nods. We walk to my apartment I share with Tris. She sits on the couch and I get us some tea.

"Well, it's quite a couple of things I need to tell you. First, Caleb had given serum to two of our friends to for them to try and kill Tris. Twice. Tris and I had a fight because I wasn't going to sit here waiting for it to happen again. I left to Erudite after changing my appearance. The only way to stop Caleb from hurting Tris again was killing him and his friends." I explain and she hugs me. I look at her and she pulls back.

"I heard Caleb had been trying to harm her. I also heard about that. I am glad you did. He was an awful child. I am just glad Tris is okay. I came here to make sure you two were okay. Thank you for keeping my daughter safe. I must go now." She says and stands up we walk to the door and she looks at me. "When you two have children come visit me. I want to see my grandkids when they get here."

"I don't know. We haven't even gotten married yet." I say and the door opens. I see Tris and I pull her into a hug.

"Well I will leave you two. Keep that promise Tobias." Tris' mom says and I nod. She walks out and I pull Tris to the couch.

"Tobias, I'm sure she told you she never wanted to see me again." She says and I shake my head. I pull Tris onto my lap and kiss her head.

"She told me she knew what Caleb was doing. She thanked me for keeping you safe. Also she said when we have children we have to visit her." I explain and she sighs. She closes her eyes and leans against my chest.

"Why can't we have a normal life?" She asks and I shake my head.

"Go get dressed into a dress. We are going on a date." I say and she gets up. She groans and sulks into the bedroom and I follow her. I grab a nice dark blue shirt and black jeans. I dress in the bedroom as she dresses and gets ready in the bathroom. She comes out and I see her in a dark blue sequence dress that ends at the mid-thigh. She has her hair curled and in a half and half do. I walk up to her and wrap my arms around her waist and pull her towards me. Her high heels make her taller so she reached my chin. I laugh and kiss her nose.

"I love you." She says kissing my throat. I laugh again and pull her closer.

"I love you too." I say and we walk out of the compound. I blind fold her and grab the picnic basket from Zeke at the Hancock building. We continue to walk until we reach the ferris wheel. I set the picnic basket down and spread out the blanket then pull her down. I unwrap the blindfold and she gasps.

"You didn't have to do this you know." She says and puts her hand on my arm. "I would have been perfectly fine with staying inside and watching a movie. In sweatpants."

"You deserve a break." I say and we feed each other and we end up laying on the ground looking at the night sky. I feel Tris' breaths even and I look down. I see my angel sleeping on my chest. Just smile and then frown. I don't want to sleep on the ground, but I don't want to wake Tris up. I lay Tris on the ground and pack the picnic up. I put the basket's strap on my shoulder and pick Tris up. I walk all the way back to our apartment with her in my arms. I open the door without ease. I finally get in and drop the basket on the coffee table. I walk to our room and peel off her dress and pull her hair out of the half and half do. I put one on my T-shirts on her and change into my boxers. I climb into the bed and pull her into chest. I kiss her head and close my eyes.
