Tobias P.O.V

*The Day Before They Come Home*

I'm sitting on the couch waiting for Tris to get out of the shower.

Right when I turn the T.V on I hear a loud bang from upstairs and Tris yells,

"Tobias!!!!!" I bolt up the stairs and open the bathroom door to find Tris wearing shorts and a bra and she is halfway in the tub with her foot twisted the wrong way, her hair is in her face and she looks adorable.

I just look at her for a decongestant before smirking,

"You okay there?" I can't help myself but let a little laugh out.

"No. I fell and twisted my ankle." she says glaring at me. I laugh and pick her up, I take to her room and set her on the bed, I get her a shirt and go downstairs to get the first aid kit.

I grab the wrap from the kit and rush back upstairs to Tris. When I get back in her room she is laying on the floor.

"TODAY IS NOT MY DAY!" she says, crossing her arms. I roll my eyes and set her back on her bed.

"How did you do that?"I ask, starting to put the wrap on her ankle.

"I was reaching to the nightstand to get my watch and just rolled off."

"Wow, Tris. Your something else aren't you?" I say, sitting on the bed.

"I guess so. Thanks for helping me." she says with a smile. I smile back and lean in. But to tease her I stay an inch away from her lips. She pouts her lip and gives me puppy dog eyes, I roll my eyes and give her a kiss. She smiles and puts her hand behind my neck, I smile and put my hand on her cheek. I pull away and kiss her forehead.

"I love you sooooo much." she says wrapping her arms around me.

"I love you too!" I return the gesture and i just sit there for a long while, holding the person that means so much to me.

The girl that makes me the man I've always wanted to be. I love her so much more than she can imagine.

I thank God each day for giving me the perfect gift.

"Im making dinner!!!" Tris sings, running into the kitchen. I follow her and sit on the bar stool. I watch her for a minute before asking,

"Whatcha makin?"

"Suprise!!!!" She says, getting a package out of the fridge.

"Want something to drink?" she asks after turning the stove on.

"Like drink, drink?" she asks winking. I laugh.

"Sure. Do we even have any alcohol?" I ask.

"I dunno.-"she looks throught the cabnites and pulls out a bottle of brown liquid."- Yup! ill make you something special." she says. Oh gosh.

"Can I help with anything?" I ask, admiring her craziness.

"Nope. Go chillax I got dis." she says sniping me out of the kitchen, pushing me torwards the door.

"Okay, Okay. I'm going!" I say shaking my head and sitting on the couch.

Tris calls me into the kitchen later on and I go in excited that the foods finally ready. And I'm shocked at what I see, there are two plates at the breakfast bar with a hamburger on each plate and a slice of cake. With two dark brown drinks which I'm guessing is Tris' concoction.

I glance at Tris and she's smiling like an idiot.

"Bring back any memories?" she asks. I think a second then it hits me, her first day in dauntless, I nod and slowly walk towards her. Wrapping her in a hug.

"Thank you Tris." I say. She nods and leads me to the table.

"Lets eat!"

I watch as Tris casually takes a drink of the stuff she made and she looks fine. So I take a drink of it too. Its actually.....good. But I'm surprised shes drinking alcohol. I mean she is 21 but she just doesn't seem like the drinking type.

"I did pretty good on the drink, yeah?" she asks. I nod and take another sip.

After we finish our dinner we wash the dishes together, and when were done Tris just stands there looking at me before bursting into tears. I immediately start to worry but she runs up to me and hugs me.

"I missed you! So much, Tobias. And I love you so so much." she says burying her head in my chest. I close my eyes and feel my eyes sting. I hold her tighter to me and let the tears flow down my face. I missed her more than she thinks.

She pulls back to look at me, when she notices the tears on my face she wipes them away with her thumb and I pull her into another hug, burying my face in her neck.

"I love you." I sniff and take a deep breath. I pull away and she grabs my hand,

"Lets go to bed, hon." she says, I follow her up the stairs and when we get to my room she lays down and I rest my head on her chest.

Feeling week and fragile I slowly fall asleep.
