Tris POV

Tobias jostles me awake and I immediately react, hitting him on the shoulder. He laughs a little then says, "Tris, we have work today."

I groan. "Come on, Tris," he urges.

"How early is it?" I ask in a groan, keeping my eyes closed.

"5:00."

"What the fuck, Tobias. We went to bed at two and now I'm supposed to be up at 5!"

"Tris..." He sighed. The next thing I knew cold water was splashed in my face, sending a chill running up and down my spine.

"Tobias!" I yell. With a groan, I sit up it the bed and unconsciously run my fingers through my hair.

"I'm going to change." He says, picking up clothes and heading towards the bathroom.

"I'll get you back." I say after him.

He smiles at me before he closes the door and I quickly gather my clothes and jump into them.

He comes out and I grab his hand. We walk out the door, and as we do I say jokingly, "But for now I'll just hold your hand and pretend I'm not mad at you."

He walks us to the control room and immediately starts teaching me the basics of computers. Luckily, I grasp on quickly enough.

"What's this thing called again?" I ask pointing to a piece of electronics.

"It a mouse." He replies, in his serious attitude.

He teaches me how to monitor the computers, control the cameras- all the basics of working in the control room.

After what feels like an hour, he says, "Let's go take a lunch."

I nod and stand up, looking at the time on the computer; 1:32.

I entwine my hand with his and shiver as he runs his thumb along the palm of my hand. He seems to notice because he looks down at me and smiles as I turn pink.

When we walk into the cafeteria, I sit down with Tobias at the table, greeting Christina. He taps me on the shoulder, points to the cafe line and says, "Be right back."

I smile as he walks away and Christina asks me how my job is going.

I reply and we begin talking about her job, then Tobias returns with two hamburgers.

H warts down the tray and says, "That lady working the line thinks I'm going to get fat. I got two meals and she started worrying over me."

Christina laughs and says, "Well, you're not going to be 18 forever."

Zeke, who was sitting next to Tobias, lifts up Tobias's shirt revealing a six-pack.

"I think he's good!" Zeke says with a laugh. "And I'm sure what Tris has seen is even better," he adds with a suggestive look.

I hastily look away; he assumes I have... Yeah well he's wrong... Zeke and his stupid, big mouth- always trying to crack a joke even when it embarrasses someone.

Tobias hastily puts down his shirt and glares at Zeke, who just smiles.

After lunch, we return to work where I actually work this time and after what seems two hours, we are heading home.

I don't hold his hand; here is where revenge starts...

Please tell me what you think!
