43.4. Transfers

Transfers (part 4)

(Eric x Reader)

********************************

You woke up feeling like shit. The room was dark and you had no idea what had happened or where you were. You looked around taking in the unfamiliar surroundings, trying to make sense of what was happening.

"Finally awake I see." The voice brought you out of your trance and you snapped your head in the direction it came from.

"Eric...?" You say quietly, slowly remembering what had happened, "You asshole shot me!"

"You're welcome princess, I saved your life." He smacks you over the head.

"Ouch!"

"That was for calling me an asshole."

"Well you are. How am I not dead?"

"I shot a sort of stun gun. Looks like a real one if you don't know it."

"You could have warned me!"

"Sure that would have worked great." He says annoyed, "He Y/N, I'm gonna shoot you now because Jeannine says so but not really so don't worry. That would have worked out freaking well you genius."

You sit up in bed and try to stand up but the moment you're up you feel dizzy, everything beginning to spin around you. Eric takes you by the arm and pushes you back down onto the mattress.

"You should lie down for a few more hours, these guns leave an impact."

"I can see that. Honestly I think you just enjoy torturing me, first you throw me off a building, then ram a needle into my arm and now you've shot me. I begin to see a pattern."

Eric chuckles a bit, looking at you, "You're welcome. I saved your sorry ass again. I see a pattern there too."

"Maybe you could work on the way you do it. You know, a bit more gentle."

"That's not really my style." He smirks, looking exactly like the little shit he is. You sigh, resting your head against the pillow and looking up to the ceiling. You still felt confused and weird but that was probably normal when someone tasered you.

"Why did you safe me anyway? I know you're not a friend of divergents, so why didn't you just kill me? It would have been easier."

"I just felt like it."

"That's not an answer."

He walks over, sitting down on the edge of the back and leaning down close to you, "Maybe I actually do like you, thought about that?"

"Not really..." You say, blushing. Being so close to Eric made you nervous somehow. He brings his face closer to yours, leaning in and placing a kiss on your lips.

"Well I do. You should rest now."

"Hey wait." You blurt out without thinking, "Uh..will you stay here a bit?"

Eric raises an eyebrow but walks over to you again, throwing himself on the bed beside you, a smirk on his face.

"If you insist."
