helluur. Do any of my reader listen to luke bryan? well lets hope so. theres going to be 2 songs in this chapter and on of them is by luke byran and its SUPER DUPER  important to the story. it ties into the flashback from last chapter and to a lot of parts to come.

anyway last chapter we had a flashback of tri and four meeting ( adorbs)

uri jokingly telling tris four was in love with her

and now they are going tback to tris' for the last sleepover before school.

heres chapter 9 in TRIS POV

____________________________________________________________________________

Somehow by the time Tobias and I reach my house, everyone else is already there. theyve all changed into more ccomfortable clothes, made food, and are currently sitting in a cirlce- probably waiting to play T or D- and throwing popcorn at each other.

" Thank god you guys are here, now we can play!" Uriah yells overdramatically. "Zeke, truth or dare?"

" Dare"

" I dare you to let Will make you a smoothie of anything in the kitchen and drink the whole glass."

he looks nervous but agrees, not wanting to chicken out on something so simple. they come back in a few minutes later, Will carryinga glass of a discolored looking "smoothie" and zeke looking at in with disgust

" Ew what the hell did you put into that thing? It smells disgusting." shauna asks

" milk, strrawberries, chocolate sauce," He started and it sounded normal until he continued with," sour cream, expired cheese, sardines, ketchup, pickles, and onions."

Zeke chugs in as quickly as possible and went into the bathroom immeadiatly throwing up. He came back out looking pale, and said " Ill get you back Will." then evily smiled before saying

" Chris T or D?"

Christina looks skeptical, expecting this has to do with his 'revenge'. she responds with truth.

" have you and Will, done it yet?"

Chrissy looks like a deer caught in the headlights. Its basically a trick question. If she refused to answer and took off her shirt, everyone would assume they had. and if she dose answer then obviously we know the truth. She nods her head just barely.

"maybe"

But before anyone can say anything she perks back up and squeals " Trissy  I have the perfect couple dare for you and Four! You guys each have to preform a song to each other that describes the first time you met." 

I look to Tobias to see if hes okay with it and he just shrugs.

" okay," I say already knowing what song ill sing," But Chris you're going to have to help me out with it."

_________________________________FOUR POV__________________________________

Tris drags Christina into the other room, probably to discuss her song. and a minute later we hear Chris yell "OHEMGEE THAT ONES PERFECT!" Tris shushes her but it dosent help much only slightly quieter we hear we say "Its like our favorite song I shouldve known youd choose it."

They come out of the other room and Tris tosses her phone to Mar, Who smiles and shows it to shauna who also chuckles at the song theyve chosen. Marlene plugs it in and They take their spot on stage. The song starts playing and I gasp slightly, I guess it was louder than I thought Because Tris turned her head and me and winked.I recognize the music from the song Tris and I danced to when we first met last year. (A/Nin the flashback last ch.)

Christina starts with the intro
Something about
Something about the boy
Something about
Something about the boy
Something about
Something about the boy
Just something about the boy

It's the verse in my head
The words that make me stutter
The swag in my step
The change from gray to color
A guaranteed bet
Oh, I found my lucky number
The feeling that you get
Can't help but make me wonder

  Tris:
No need to try
He's just right
He's got that something
I can't let nobody tell me no
No I don't mind
Takes me high
I won't stop until the boy is mine


He got me good
I've got it bad
He got me feeling like a girl gone mad
Got me running around like I'm a lovefool
Taking me down I can't stop
He got me up
I can't come down
He got me locked and I don't want out
I know he's playing my heart and I ain't got no choice
There's just something about the boy
Something about
Something about the boy
Something about
Something about the boy
Something about
Something about the boy
There's just something about the boy

This time Tris continues with the verse:
It's the first time we met
The lightening to my thunder
The green light on red
The kiss that pulls me under
It's only for me
If you're the test I got the answer
And I'm all that you need
Now you finally get the chance to

And Christina sings here:
No need to try
He's just right
He's got that something
I can't let nobody tell me no
No I don't mind
Takes me high
I won't stop until the boy is mine


He got me good
I've got it bad
He got me feeling like a girl gone mad
Got me running around like I'm a lovefool
Taking me down I can't stop
He got me up
I can't come down
He got me locked and I don't want out
I know he's playing my heart and I ain't got no choice
There's just something about the boy
Something about
Something about the boy
Something about
Something about the boy
Something about
Something about the boy
There's just something about the boy

The music slows and Tris sings this next part absolutly perfectly:
I know you like to play it slow
But I'm running out of time
It's like I lost my self control
'Cause you are the one
And you know what you've done
My poor heart's come undone
Baby please She hits a high note I didnt even know was possible, and lets out a small laugh that drives me crazy beofre continuing.

They sing the chorus together, but exit from the stage and tris walks straight to me, and chris goes over to Will, who looks justs as surprised.
He got me good
I've got it bad
He got me feeling like a girl gone mad

She reaches out and playfully ruffles my hair. I dont know how much more I can take before at least kissing her.


Got me running around like I'm a lovefool
Taking me down I can't stop
He got me up
I can't come down

She does a sexy dance move right in front of me, where she drops low balancing on her toes and quickly stands again. Now shes doing it on purpose.


He got me locked and I don't want out
I know he's playing my heart and I ain't got no choice

she leans forward with her hand on her heart, close enought where i think she'll kiss me but turns at the last second.


There's just something about the boy
Something about
Something about the boy
Something about
Something about the boy
Something about
Something about the boy
There's just something about the boy

They both finish strongly and walk back and meet in the middle of the song while singing the  end

Something about
Something about the boy
Something about
Something about the boy
Something about
Something about the boy
Just something about the boy

_______________TRIS POV____________________________________________

As I pass Tobias  when he goes to take the stage and I goes to sit down he kisses me and whispers "Nice song choice, and dancing. you know you were driving me crazy right?"

The low voice he uses sends chills up and down my back. "I cant believe you remeber it was that song" I told him. 

" Trust me, I remeber everything about that night, You'll see." he says nodding to the stage. I dont understand why but I go sit down anyway. The msuic starts and It sounds kind of country. Tobias starts singing and I realize he has an amazing voice. ( A/N If you dont know this song please please please read the lyrics or look up the song its really important to the story!)

She was sittin' all alone over on the tailgate
Tan legs swingin' by a Georgia plate
I was lookin' for her boyfriend
Thinkin', no way she ain't got one
Soon as I sat down I was fallin' in love
Tryin' to pour a little sugar in her Dixie cup
Talkin' over the speakers in the back of that truck
She jumped up and cut me off

She was like, oh my God, this is my song
I've been listenin' to the radio all night long
Sittin' 'round waitin' for it to come on and here it is
She was like, come here boy, I wanna dance
'Fore I said a word, she was takin' my hand
Spinnin' me around 'til it faded out
And she gave me a kiss
And she said, play it again, play it again, play it again
And I said, play it again, play it again, play it again


Wait did I hear that part right? Are those actually the lyrics?

I'd gave that DJ my last dime
If he would have played it just one more time
But a little while later
We were sittin' in the drive in my truck
Before I walked her to the door
I was scannin' like a fool AM, FM, XM too
But I stopped real quick when I heard that groove
Man, you should have seen her light up

She was like, oh my God, this is my song
We've been listenin' to the radio all night long
I can't believe that it came back on, but here it is
She was like, come here boy, I wanna dance
'Fore I said a word, she was takin' my hand

Yup those are definatly the words. I cant believe it.


Spinnin' in the headlights she gave me a goodnight kiss
And I said, play it again, play it again, play it again
And she said, play it again, play it again, play it again

The next Friday night we were sittin' out under the stars
You should have seen her smile when I broke out my guitar

Tobias' voice is incredible. I never knew he could sing.. I cant take my eyes off him.
She was like, oh my God, this is my song
I've been listenin' to the radio all night long
Sittin' 'round waitin' for it to come on and here it is
She was like, come here boy, I wanna dance
'Fore I said a word, she was takin' my hand
Spinnin' in the headlights she gave me a goodnight kiss
And she said, play it again, play it again, play it again
And I said, play it again, play it again, play it again

Yeah, play it again, play it again, play it again
Somebody, play it again, play it again, play it again

The song ends and my mouth is just hanging open.

" wait wait, did you like write that or something?" I ask him. 

"Nope, I heard it on the radio a while ago and it made me think of-" he started, but I cut him off

" Well yeah! thats like almost exactly what happened!"

we both looked around at our friends who were just watching us with looks of confusion and amusement.

" last year you guys remeber the freshman homecoming dance? And Chris remember you were trying to get me to come dance? After you disapeared back onto the floor, Four walked up-" I start to tell the story and Tobias interrupts me this time

" and before this girl gives me her damn name, she jumps up and says ' oh my god, this is my song, ive been waiting all night for it to come on!' Literally just like in the song. She jumped up and starting dancing, but looked back at me and asked if I was going to make her dance alone-

" which of course he didn't." I finshed with a smile.

Shauna speaks up" Well honestly I didnt even understand half that story, but you guys are actually super adorable."

All our friends agree and Zeke brings us back To the game.

" Tris truth or dare?"

Even though my last dare took forever, i was feeling brave so I answered dare.

He smiles extra evily. " I dare you to play 7 minutes with... Marlene."

I cover my look of shock before anyone notices and I stand up and lead Mar to the next room, turn and close the door behind us.

"umm Tris, look i dont want to jusge or anything," she whisers " but im not really into this sort of thing, plus were both in relationships-"

" oh my god mar im not gay!: I say laughing. " were not really gping to to anything... But they dont know that" I grin

She looks like she is starting to catch on and smiles. " Just like start by making really loud kissing noises and stuff." I whisper

we both do, and marlene goes over to the bed and starts pushes down so the springs start squeaking. Genius, I think. Just to add to it I moan really loudly. Thats when the door burts open with Tobias and Uriah at the front, and everyone else following them.

"Omg" Mar and I scream at the same time. " You should see your faces!"

Were both rolling on the ground with laughter and I think my eyes start to water. We finally control ourselves and walk out high fiving.

After a while we all slpit into separte rooms, but this sleepover Tobias comes to my room right away. As were laying in bed, he wraps his arms around me and kisses my forehead, as I think about all todays events.

" so toby, did I hear Uri say you loved me?" I ask teasingly. I notice his face dosent look amused or seem to know I was kidding.

" Hey, Tobias I was just kidding, Its still really early-"

He cuts me off " Thats the problem. I might be in love with you." he smiles a little. " I'm waiting until im sure to tell you, though.'

' Thats sensible of you." I say smiling too. " we should find some paper so you can make a list or chart or something"

I feel his laughter against my side, his nose sliding along my jaw,his lips pressing to my ear.

" Maybe I'm already sure," he says, '  and I just dont want to frighten you."

I laugh a little. " Then you should know better."

"Fine," He says. " Then I love you."

"I love you too, Tobias eaton."

"Say that again."

I kiss his collarbone " I love you"

then kiss his neck " i love you"

his cheek " I,"

corner of his mouth "love"

He kisses my lips " you" he finishes for me.
