Divergent High

Chapter 19

Tris POV:
Tobias had left my house, telling me he would call after talking to his dad. I told him he could stay another day, but he refused and just wanted to get the beatings over with. I want to do something, I crave to help him, but he doesn't want me getting involved.

I wasn't sure what I was going to do for the rest of the night. I was home alone now, so I didn't have Caleb to give me company. Sigh.

I pace around the living room, thinking on what I could do. There was always tomorrow's English assignment, but I'll pass on that. I walk upstairs to my bedroom, grab a clean pair of underwear, a new bra, and pajamas and walk to the shower. God knows I needed one.

I turn the faucet to hot water, then take off my clothes to jump in. I was my body slowly, making sure to clean all the dirt and smell away. I put shampoo and conditioner in my hair and massage my scalp. When done, I rinse out all the soap, turn off the water, grab my towel and dry off.

Before I could even try to get my undies on, a knock was at the door. Who could that be at this time? I quickly throw on the underwear then wrap my towel tight against my body and walk down to open the door.

At the door, a beaten up Tobias stands, holding two suit cases with another one behind him.
"Tris I know it late and I literally was just here about three hours ago but do you mine if I can stay in on of your guest rooms, or even in your room until Marcus calms down?"

I nod, helping him carry his stuff in while holding my towel with one hand.

"Just get out of the shower?" He asks, and I nod.

He kisses the tip of my forehead. "Why don't you get dressed and I'll make us some dinner."

I smile, then run up the stairs. I change into my grey sweat pants and purple tank top, adding on a black and purple pair of socks.

I couldn't believe it- Tobias was going to be living with me. It was like a dream come true! I could see my handsome boyfriend every morning and every night.

I trail my way downstairs to have my nose tingle with a sweat scent.

"Mmm Tobias," I say entering the kitchen, "what is this deveined smell?"

I see him fixing up two plates. "Nothing big. Just Chicken Alfredo with bread and butter."

I smile and kiss him in the lips. "How did you know this was my favorite dinner?" He laughs then pulls me closely to him. "Because I love you that much."

I sit acrossed from him from the dining table. This food was delicious! Something I could really get used to with him living here...

"So have you started your English assignment?" He speaks up. I shake my head, and he nods slowly. "Who are you writing about."

That was a good question. A very good question, a question I didn't know an answer to. I could write about him, or my parents, or my friends. I admire a lot of people.

"Who are you writing about?" I try to change the subject off me. He gives me a big smile.

"It's a surprise."

I laugh, then collect our empty plates. "Want to watch a movie in bed? Or play the XBox?"

He nods, and we walk upstairs, lay in bed, and play Call if Duty. This, was defiantly something I could get used to.

A/N:
Quick question,
Do you guys think my chapters are too short? Should I try putting two chapters into one, or keep it how it is. I've noticed how small my chapters are compared to other greater stories, and I wanted to know if you guys liked this or no? Please comment!
Also, Tobias and Tris living together now? Whoo :)
