Tobias and Tris - Dauntless Life Oneshots

by imnopansycake

These are some one shots of what I think Tris and Tobias' life would be like if the war had never happened. A common topic, I know, but as it is my first piece of fanfiction I wanted to start with a story in my comfort zone. Who knows, if i become more confident maybe I'll adapt these one shots into a full story. :)

1. Chapter 1 - OFFICIALLY DAUNTLESS

AN: So this is my very first piece of fanfiction. To be honest I only made this account to follow my favourite stories and authors but after reading their work I got a bit of inspiration of my own. Hope you enjoy.

"You think giving you a hug would give away too much?" he says

"You know", I say, "I really don't care"

I stand on my tiptoes and press my lips to his.

It is the best moment of my life.

I feel Tobias' strong arms wrap around my waist and my feet leave the ground for a moment. We break apart and he bows his forehead to mine, I meet his eyes smiling. "I've done it", I think, "I've passed dauntless initiation, I'm officially a member!" the thought makes the butterflies in my stomach crazy. I finally pull away from him long enough to notice the gaping stares from my friends. I spot Christina amongst the crowd and she is scowling.

"Christina, I –"

"Save it," she snaps but then her face breaks into a wide grin, "You know I'd be mad at you if I weren't so God damn happy for you."

I blush and Tobias squeezes my waist and I feel his lips on my hair. The gesture makes me feel safe and, I realise with a shock, loved.

"I want details." Christina points mock accusingly at Tobias then at me. I smile, grateful that she isn't demanding them now.

"Anyway," Christina continues, "Uriah's having a party tonight at Zeke's and naturally the first ranked initiate is expected to attend."

I freeze, In Abnegation we never had parties and a part of me was always glad. The thought of being trapped in a room full of rowdy intoxicated teenagers makes my stomach churn. It's a thought that has always brought a sense of insecurity to my mind.

My eyes drift to the board that displays our final ranking and I want to kick myself. I am no longer Beatrice the Abnegation, the stiff. I am Tris – first ranked dauntless member, dauntless prodigy with only seven fears, with another dauntless prodigy standing right by my side.

Christina, notices my silence – "So, are you coming?"

"Sure", I say, barely audible, then more certain, "I'll see you there."

AN: Well that's my very first chapter guys! Just to let you know, because I'm a newbie at all of this lots of feedback and constructive criticism is appreciated but comments that are just down right rude will be ignored and maybe even named and shamed in my next AN. Everyone starts somewhere and I want to enjoy my first writing experience :)
