Divergent High

Chapter 64~ Trainer

Tris POV
I wake up to the beeping of the alarm, normally Tobias turns it off since it's on his side, but this morning it just keeps running. "Tobias." I mumble. No response. I open my eyes and turn onto my side and reach to shut the damn thing off, Tobias isn't in bed. I sit up and hear the water running, the door is cracked slightly and steam is seeping out.

I get up and grab my clothes for the day, it's Monday. School, I decide to change into a orange sundress, brown sandals, simple makeup, and I'll put my hair into a messy bun with a headband, that has an orange flower attached that matches my dress. I bring all of that to the bathroom which is still being occupied by Tobias but I don't care. I strip and open the shower curtain, Tobias is shampooing so he must not have been in here long.

"Morning." He says smiling at me. "Morning." I say grabbing my own shampoo. The water is a nice balance of warm and cool, we both hate cold showers. "How'd you sleep?" He asks picking up the bar of soap. "Good." I answer. Tobias starts to clean/massage my back with the soap he had grabbed. It was mine that smells like lilac, he has some "manly" one.

"Ready to go back to school?" I ask. "Not really. We have football practice, and then after that I have to head to the gym. Coach says its homework." He says with a light chuckle. "Is Uriah and zeke joining you?" I ask while shutting off the water. "I don't know. I know Zeke and shauna.. um last night.. Yeah." He says uncomfortably. "How would you know that?" I ask grabbing a dark purple towel and wrapping around my bare and wet body.

"The guy texts the most disturbing things." Tobias answers with a face of disgust. I laugh and start on my makeup.

"Can you believe that prom is next week?!?" The girls squeal about while we sit at lunch. Well all girls except me and lynn. "Are we seriously on this topic again?" I ask. There hasn't been a day this week that they haven't brought it up. Zeke asked me." Shauna says. Her grin is so big that her face looks like it will snap in half.

"Oh my gosh!" All us girls say at once, and this time it's all of us. "I know, it was so unexpected." She says. "What was unexpected?" Zeke asks as him and the other guys come to the table. "Hey." Tobias whispers into my ear as he takes a seat next to me. "I was telling the girls that you asked me to prom." Shauna says. They begin to kiss, until lynn throws French fries at them. We all laugh but they scowl, "No PDA." Uriah says.

"Why are you acting like you're training me, if you're the one who has the big game?" I ask tobias out of breath, while running. He's already pushed me into running 2 miles. He doesn't answer, I turn the machine off and step down, my legs sore. I grab a towel and wipe my forehead. Tobias is over in a corner lifting weights, his shirts off and sweat runs down it. I shake my head to get my mind on track again and walk over to him.

He sits up and grabs his water bottle. "Did you hear my question?" I ask snatching it from his hand. "Yeah, give me my water and I'll answer you." He says with a smirk. "Fine." I say handing it to him. "Because we're each other's trainers. If I'm allowing you to 'train' me, then I get to train you." He explains. I roll my eyes and walk over to the incline bike. I start it up and watch tobias go on the treadmill I was just on.

I watch for a while, the determination in his eyes and the tiredness too, he won't admit that he's running down but he is.

It's about an hour later that we decide to go home, shower, get a big dinner and head to bed. I just changed into my pajamas, drying my hair with a towel. Tobias is on the bed, laptop on his lap. I toss the towel into the basket and sit next to him. I kiss his cheek and he looks over smiling. "Hey." "Hi. Whatcha looking at?" I ask fixing my pillows.

"I am looking at something." He shares with me. "Really? I had no idea!" I exclaim, my voice dripping with sarcasm. "Haha, it's just a secret." He says. He puts the laptop away and turns on his side to face me. "I had a nice time with you, it might actually be better working out with you than the guys." He admits. "Hmm, why's that?" I ask. "I get to stare at things the guys don't have." He says and I slap him. "And I like having you around." He tells me.

I smile and kiss him. He turns to shut the lights off and we snuggle together, soon falling asleep.
