Forbidden Love

chapter twenty eight

The lyrics to Daylight by Maroon 5 go perfectly to this chapter.

"Tobias, no."

A devilish smirk took over his face as he walked towards me. I began walking backwards, my hands out in front of me in a surrender motion. I bumped into my coffee table and  into my TV stand, but that didn't stop me from getting away from him.

"I told you my weaknesses out of confidence, not so that you can use them against me," I calmly said, even though my heart was racing.

Tobias snorted and maneuvered his way against my couch. I quickly jumped over my foot rest, gaining me a good foot away from him.

"You should know me by now. I'm not like most people you know."

I let out a nervous chuckle and began walking slowly towards my room, never leaving my eyes off of his.

"Let's make a deal, duh? You don't tickle me and I won't kick your ass. Seems like a pretty decent deal to me."

Tobias's eyes glistened in amusement. That's when I knew I was in trouble. There was no way he was going to give up now, no matter what I said or did. He lunged after me and I let out a shriek. I began running down my hallway and turned left. At the end of my hallway I saw my bedrooms door slightly ajar.

I didn't dare look back as I pushed my door open before turning around so I could shut it again. Tobias was quick though, quick and strong. He easily pushed my door open as I used my body to shut it. Just as he was about to grab my arm I jumped over my bed and stood in my corner. I was trapped.

"Tobias, please no," I pleaded, putting my hands together in a praying position. "I'm literally begging you."

Tobias still had that annoying smirk on his face as he flopped on my bed. He got off and stood in front of me, not too close but close enough where he could easily grab me if I decided to escape.

"You really don't want me to tickle you, huh?" He asked, crossing his arms.

I gulped and shook my head. "When I told you I'm extremely ticklish I wasn't exaggerating. Once I even peed in my pants."

Tobias tilt his head back in laughter. He wiped his eye after he finished laughing. He sighed softly before smiling at me. "Okay fine, I won't tickle you."

Relief passed through me and I instantly felt a weight lift off of my chest. "Seriously?"

Still smiling, he nodded. "Seriously."

Satisfied, I smiled back. "Thank you for being so considerate. You stay here while I make popcorn. Find us a good movie to watch."

"Aye aye captain!" He replied, saluting me. I rolled my eyes at his dramatic behavior.

I slipped past him, keeping my eyes glued on him while I did in case he was going to come after me. I was surprised he didn't try to tickle me when I passed by him. However, it was naive of me to think that he would give up so easily.

I was pulled in his toned chest. His arms were wrapped around my waist tightly and I could feel his body vibrate from laughter as I yelled at him. I tried weaving my way out of his arms but my desperate attempts were useless. I was lifted and held firmly against his body.

"Tobias! Put me down!" I commanded, kicking my legs furiously. I felt like Fiona from Shrek, only I wasn't over Tobias's shoulder like Fiona was.

"Sure thing sweetheart," Tobias enthused.

For a second it felt like I was flying until my back hit my bed, making my body jump. I huffed out in annoyance, scowling at Tobias and his laughing face. He joined me on the bed and I tried to escape but he was much quicker than I was. Both of my hands were pinned down as Tobias looked at me with full interest.
