If I had met you in grey

Chapter 75

Tris POV
I wake up the next morning and I heard that they needed to fix something in one of the rooms today so we have another day off. I get up, shower and get ready for the day. I'm brushing out my hair when tobias comes into the dorms. "Morning." I say. He gives a very small smile, so small that if you blinked you would miss it. "Morning." He says with a loud sigh. "What's wrong with you?" I ask pulling my hair into a ponytail.

"Nothing." He says. Obviously I don't believe him but I'm letting it slide for now. "You ready for breakfast?" He asks. I nod and slip my hand in his. We walk down and find out seat at the table. "Hey four!" Zeke says. He's sitting diagonal from tobias. "What?" "Where did you go this morning? You were out at like 2:00am!" Zeke says. Tobias chokes on his water. "Yeah. Where'd you go four?" I say. "Had to do something." He answers. Zeke seems satisfied but I'm not. I just roll my eyes and talk to Christina who's sitting beside me.

We walk back to the dorms, half of us went down to the pit and the other half are getting ready to go zip lining. "Tris hold up." Tobias says grabbing my arm and pulling me from the group. The group going zip lining. "What?" "Can I talk to you?" He asks. His face serious but his eyes pleading. "Oh! You're ready to talk are you?" I say. He sighs. "It's fine. Let's talk." I say and we go to the chasm.

We sit side by side, shoulders touching. I look over at him, he's fiddling with his fingers, he's nervous. "So." I say to start it off. "My mother wants to meet you." He blurts out. "Your... Your mother?" I ask making sure I heard right. "Yeah. She contacted me again. This morning." He said. That's why he was out early. "How does she know about me?" I ask. He shrugs. "She's got eyes everywhere." He says. I can't tell if he's really serious or just joking. "Oh." "You don't have to, I wasn't actually going to have you-" I cut him off. "I'll go." I say.

The words beat my mind to it. "You what?" He asks looking a bit stunned. "I'll go." I say again. "Are you sure?" He asks. "Yes." I say. "Well.. Okay. Tonight at 9:00. She said to meet them at the train tracks." He says. I nod and take a deep breathe. "You'll be fine. But if you ever want to back out tell me. I won't care." He says. I smile and kiss him lightly. "Thanks." I say and lean my head on his shoulder. "Sure thing." He says.
