You And Me Against The World | ✅

Chapter 27

When I wake up it's dark outside. Tobias is sleeping. I try to get out of his embrace to go to the bathroom. I almost manage to get up without waking him, but the moment I sit up he wakes with a start. He looks around confused and I feel like punching myself.

"Tris?" he asks, sleep thick in his voice.

"Yeah, baby?"

"What's going on?"

"Nothing. I just need to use the bathroom. I'll be right back. Go back to sleep," I say and hurry to the bathroom. I'm in and out in less than two minutes and decide to take my bathrobe off. It's so warm in here that I can barely breathe. I let the thick robe fall down and climb into bed. I snuggle close to Tobias and let him wrap me into his arms.

"Are you naked?" he asks surprised.

"Yeah. It's so hot in here," I say yawning.

"It is," he says. "Maybe I should take off my robe as well," he says and I can hear him grinning. He lets go of me and quickly discards his own robe sliding back next to me completely naked. He wraps his arms around me and starts kissing my temple, my cheek, my nose, my lips. When I open my mouth he sticks his tongue inside and starts dancing with mine. We kiss leisurely but when I can't breathe anymore I pull back.

"What's wrong?" he asks alerted.

"I couldn't breathe anymore," I say taking in a lungful of air.

"Are you okay, honey? You seem a little warm to me," he says sitting up.

"Yeah, I'm fine. The robe just warmed me up," I say snaking my arm around his neck and pulling him down for another kiss. After a while he gives in and we resume our little mid-night making out session.

Tobias lets his right hand glide over my body, touching it lightly and eliciting moans from me. He kisses my throat and sucks lightly at my pulse point and I feel a warmth between my legs. I let my arms travel up and down his back pulling him closer to me. We end up making love twice before we fall back to sleep happy in each other's arms.

When I wake up again I am alone in our bed. I sit up, pulling the sheets around me and rub my eyes to fully wake me up. I wonder where Tobias is when I see him enter our bedroom with a tray full of food in his hands.

"You are up," he says smiling.

"Just woke up," I say. "Did you make me breakfast in bed?" I ask smiling at him and holding out my hands to grab the tray, allowing him to slide in next to me.

"For the both of us," he answers and takes the tray from me. I look over it and see pancakes with strawberry sauce and whipped cream, two mugs of steamy coffee and some fresh orange juice. And one single red rose. Tobias picks it up and hands it to me. I take it smiling and kiss his cheek. He's such a softy when it's just the two of us. I think if I would ever tell people that fearless and sometimes scary Four is such a romantic they would never believe me. Heck, they would think I've lost my mind. I chuckle at that thought. "What is it?" he asks.

"I just thought of what people would say if I told them what a romantic you are. They would probably think I've lost my mind," I say and laugh a little. "Don't worry. This stays between us," I assure him.

"Thought so. Here, try this," he says holding out a forkful of pancakes with sauce. I take it in my mouth and moan loudly.

"This is delicious," I say with my mouth half full. I grab a mug and sip a little coffee to wake me up. We continue eating and having small talk enjoying each other's company. "What made you do this?" I ask.
