Hey guys! Iris here and this is my first fan fiction which tells about my favorite shipping, "FourTris". I think in that way, we share something in common. Also, that we both love the Divergent trilogy and of course, Ms. Roth. I'd like to inform you, before reading, that I will divide this story into 3 to 4 POVs (I'm not sure) but to avoid confusing you, of course, I'd put at the top whose POV is being told. Tris will be the one narrating at the beginning where she tells about her life after the initiation. There will be a twist in this story and that twist includes Four and that is what you're going to find out sooner.

So, enjoy reading! :D

Chapter 1: It Began at the End

Tris' POV

I cannot actually believe that few months have already passed since I chose Dauntless and left Abnegation. It just feels unreal and I don't know why although I can feel in my senses that a lot of things have happened during those last few months. One of those events was that the initiation was finally over yet we all remain here in the Dauntless compound. The only difference, I guess, is that there are no more trainings, well of course it's all done, no more simulation tests, and the other things that occur during an initiation. Perhaps this is the segment they call as "do everything you want now you're free" and I can't tell if I'm happy about that. Don't get me wrong. During initiation, a lot was going on. There was this "tension" that you call and there's always a scene, a happening that makes it all intriguing. However, as it came to an end, I figured out that there's nothing much thrilling except when I hang-out with my friends around the Pit, talk and laugh at them on breakfasts, and get adventurous as we go zip-lining. Also, I work on the tattoo parlor along with Tori and as we work, we exchange stories so we can avoid the boredom while waiting for a customer to come in. But most of the time, I only have four hours of shift then someone will replace me with the part. I will go back to my dormitory after the shift and lay on bed, and if I get really brain-dead, I'd walk over to the Chasm and be-friend the railing because I really just don't know what to do when I can feel my body eager to move.

Right now, I am feeling that way. My shift has just finished about fifteen minutes ago and my friends are nowhere to be found. I think Christina is at the clinic right now and I don't like the idea of coming over for I might disturb her. Besides, we'd see each other later. I've heard that Zeke, along with Uriah, Lynn, Marlene, and Shauna has gone to the zip line. They haven't waited for me anymore since they thought my shift will take more time. But that's fine. I'm not even that interested to come with them since we've went there just four days ago. I'm not missing it yet. Will, on the other hand, is probably at the clinic too, offering Christina some help. They've been dating for three months now and I honestly feel happy for the two of them. They look so good together and they appear to be lovey-dovey most of the time, not caring about what others may say. I guess that's what you call love. You won't give a damn about people think because you belong to each other and nobody can change that. I wonder when I can have that kind of thing that they possess. But why do I question it anyway? Will any guy like or love me? A short girl who isn't pretty at all? That's nearly impossible.

As I over think those kinds of daydreams, I decided that I might well go to the Chasm rather than just strolling around the Pit alone. It doesn't make sense, I realized. To stand by the Chasm might even hand me some company although I know, really, that I have nobody with me.

As I walk there, I hear a pair of voices that kind of sound familiar. I stepped more closely and the voices got clearer in my ears. A male and a female voice, talking, laughing, and giggling. I almost find it romantic. I don't know why. Then as I walked more, I finally discovered to whom the voices are coming from and what is currently happening.

"How about we stay in your apartment tonight? You know…we can…"

Eliza.

"I know. That sounds like a good idea."

Tobias.

And without allowing me to guess of what may happen next, he frames her face in both hands and kisses her. At first, it was tender. But as seconds go, it becomes deeper, making Eliza wrap her arms around Tobias' waist. The kiss goes more passionate. I narrowed my eyes, feeling a pang of pain which I cannot understand. Why do I care anyway? Who am I to feel this way, this jealousy? I am nothing but an initiate to him. Nothing else.

And it makes my stomach churn.

I'm about to turn away, leaving no sign that I've come and caught them flirting along the Chasm, but just as I'm about to do that, I tripped over a rock and it made a sound, assuring me that they've heard and now I'm dead.

"Who's that?" I hear Eliza asks.

I wasn't facing them. They can only see my back. So if ever they figure out who I am, I could just run and pretend that I didn't see anything and feel anything.

But just when I thought that I've gone nameless and that they couldn't guess who I am, I was wrong. Tobias might have considered my height and he must have memorized my back figure that he knows who I am even though I'm undisclosed.

"Tris?" he says.

"Who?" Eliza asks in a who-the-hell-is-that-girl-tone.

"Hey, Tris. Is that you?" I noticed that he ignored her question.

Panic covered me up. I want to run. Just run fast as I could but I feel like it wouldn't be a good choice. He has discovered me and I don't know how he did that but that isn't the point now. Should I turn around and face them or better escape?

I have no time to decide. So I just turn around.

I felt a twinge of pain again. And I really hate this feeling. I can't afford it. Tobias is holding her in the waist and they're both staring at me.

"Uh…I…" I begin to speak so I don't have to wait for him or her to ask me to explain what the hell am I doing here.

"I just came from my shift…at the tattoo parlor and I'm… I'm walking around, thinking maybe it can entertain me then suddenly… it happened that I walked the path here and saw the two of you… and I don't want to bother you but unfortunately, I tripped over a rock and… you guys were destructed."

Eliza raised her brows on me. What is her problem? Does she think I did that on purpose to stop them from their kissing ritual? Or does she suspect me to having feelings for her boyfriend? Which is… I think… is true and I hate it!

Four's lips formed into a straight line. It seems like he doesn't care at all, doesn't care about me. And why would he? He has a girlfriend and they sure love each other. I'm just an initiate, a Stiff, a small girl, a background. It's like we're in a movie, they're the couple, and I'm the annoying antagonist. Hmp. As it always turn to be.

"I see." That's all what he says.

Eliza still looks at me as if she's going to kill me. I didn't return the look. And I won't. Tobias will see, and it may just get worse. But if I only have the chance, I'd slap into her face that I'm not what she's thinking of and she doesn't know me, my life.

But rather than doing that, I just turned around, forcing a small fake smile, leaving them alone.

I would like to share that writing this first chapter went off naturally. I didn't have so much difficulty on finding the words to say so I enjoyed writing it. And yep, Eliza is Tobias's girlfriend. But it doesn't mean that I'm taking Tobias and Tris away. There's a lot more to happen. :D So now I'd like to know what you think about my story. I'd highly appreciate any positive or negative reviews. Please let them come. I will post the next chapter, then. :D

Thank you!
