Tris pov
I sit on the couch with a slice of pizza and a can of coke in my hand talking with Christina as she eats her pizza and drinks her coke.
"I never thought in a million years that I would be seeing you eat a box of pizza with me and drinking coke. You were always water, water, water and never eating eating eating" she says
"Yeah I was really bad back then. I'm glad I got help" I say
"So this baby?" She ask
"Are you excited to be a mommy" she adds and I laugh
"Very excited. Tobias and I are almost a year together which is not a long time but we just love each other so much to have a baby. Our relationship is weird but it's full of love" I say
"All of the loving" she says and we laugh
"So you know Tobias's friend Will" she says
"Yeah he's so nice isn't he" I say
"Yeah um. We slept together and he hasn't called me back so I'm starting to think it was bad sex but in my opinion I thought it was great sex but yeah he hasn't called, texted, nothing. I'm starting to get worried" she says and I choke on my coke.
"Christina when did you sleep with him" I say surprised
"It was last week" she says
"And you're telling me this now" I say
"Because I didn't think it was a big deal but now that he's not calling me, I'm getting nervous" she says
"Well was it a one night stand or was it like a serious hook up" I say
"I thought it was serious" she says
"Call him" I say
"I can't. I don't want to seem needy" she says and I laugh
"Well if you want him, call him" I say
"You're right, I should just call him" she says
"Yeah" I agree
We sit there on the couch silent until I lay my head back and sigh.
"I miss my boyfriend" I say
"But you see him everyday" she says confused
"I know but I miss 'him'. He's always so doctor like with me because of my eating disorder and now that I'm pregnant he's going to be even more doctor like. I just want him to be my boyfriend not my doctor" I say
"Have you talked to him about it" she ask
"No, I brought it up once today but we were in the middle of making out so it didn't really become a conversation" I say
"Well talk to him about it when you're not making out" she says laughing
"Let him know how you feel" she adds and I nod.
"Thanks Chris, you're the best" I say reaching for the cheese fries
"Want some" I ask her
"Nah I'm stuffed" she says

I lay in bed asleep. Then I hear Tobias get home.
He walks in the room, kicks off his shoes and comes to lay next to me. His arm wraps around me and I snuggle closer to him.
"How was work" I mumble
"Not good. We lost her. She flatlined a few times. She just wasn't recovering good." He says and I turn my body to face him
"I'm sorry. Are you okay? Want to talk" I say running my fingers through his hair
"I'm fine. It happens. This isn't the first time I lost a patient" he says and I sigh hugging him and he hugs me back
"Is that why you're always on top of me to get better because you don't want to see me get bad" I say
"Well yeah but I'm not always on top of you about it" he says
"I feel like you are just a tiny bit" I say back
"I just don't want you to get bad" he says
"So you agree you're always on top of me about it" I say removing my hands from his hair
"Okay maybe I am but I'm a doctor that specializes in eating disorders I know what can happen, I just don't want to see that happen to you " he says and I cover my face with my hands
"Here we go again with the doctor stuff" I say annoyed
"Tris I'm not trying to be you're doctor. I'm just a doctor letting you know" he says
"That sounds like trying to be my doctor" I say
"But I'm not" he says
"So what do you want me to do, not help you while you recover from a 2 year eating disorder. That doesn't get cured over night. I may not be your doctor but I'm here to help you because I love you" he says
"I know what could happen if you don't recover right" he says
"I do too. I'm the one with the eating disorder. I've been through it all, I've tried recovering once and ended up falling back to my eating disorder, so trust me I know. But I'm in a happy place right now. I'm not planning on getting sick again." I say
"I'm just trying to look out for you. Being a doctor and your boyfriend doesn't that make it double the support for you." He says
"But I have a doctor, I just want my boyfriend" I say
"I want you to be there for me and hold me when I feel sad not always hover over my shoulder making sure I don't fall back into bad habits like my doctor does" I say
"When I told you I was pregnant you seemed more interested in my eating disorder then our baby" I add
"Tris now stop you knew how excited I was about you being pregnant. It was the best news ever" he says
"I have no idea what you want anymore Tris. You want me to be there for you but then you don't. What do you want because I'm confused" he says annoyed
Quick question who's side are you on. Tris or Tobias's? Honestly I'm on tobias's, tris is acting a little cray cray. Comment you're thoughts.
"I'm trying to be there for you the best that I can and all you do is keep pushing me away because you feel like I'm being to doctory. Is that even a thing" he adds
"Yes" I spit back
"It's exactly how you act, all the time" I add
"Well Tris if you don't like it why are we even together" he says and that hits me. It hits me hard.
What have I done. I caused a fight for nothing. Tobias is my everything, he's the best boyfriend ever and I'm being such a bitch. What's wrong with me?
"I'm going to sleep on the couch tonight. We can talk more tomorrow" he says
"No you had a long day, take the bed. I'll go to the couch." I say
"Tris just stay in bed. You're pregnant it's best if you have a nice bed to sleep on" he says
"There you go with the doctor talk" I say
"It's not doctor talk. It's me caring about you. Doctor or not any guy should do that for his girlfriend" he says grabbing his pillow and walking out.
I put my hands on my face and sigh. What have I done?
