CHRISTINA
This was more than nerve-wracking. I can't believe I just chose to become dauntless! Part of me is celebrating and the other part is worried. I mean this was the most intimidating faction. On the other hand I am so excited to meet all the other transfers. I think I'll get along with them because honestly I can't stand the transfers coming with me from my faction. I can't wait till the train gets there ahhh I'm so nervous.
45 minutes later-
Oh my gosh I'm here. Oh God. Ok stay calm stay calm.
I repeat this mantra in my head it was honestly the only way I could hold myself together. I get off the bus and see a group of teenagers gathering near a cliff. I walk over. I see a guy in all black who's obviously dauntless he introduces himself as Four. Personally I think he is more of an eight. Ha-ha knee slapper I'm so punny.
''Hello Transfers and welcome to the first part of Dauntless initiation,'' Four says. '' Being part of this Faction is an honor and you must prove you belong here. Now our initiation is different from other factions. It is obviously more physically demanding as well as mentally. Now there are two different types of initiates. Those who persevere through the pressure and those who crumble under it. Now you may be wondering why exactly we are standing next to this cliff and the answer is simple. In order to get into the faction you must jump. Now you may think this is the worst of it but this isn't even close. Now who wants to go first" he says with a calm grin. Then he jumps.
Everyone backs up and no one is willing to go. The air is still for a moment all the transfers are looking around trying to size each other up wondering whose going to make the first move. Then the Abnegation girl walks up. A strange turn of events this is to say the least. She takes off her huge sweater and throws it back at Peter who looks frozen in shock. Internally I'm laughing because the jerk probably deserved that. Then she runs and jumps. Then she's gone.
When she's gone everyone starts talking in disbelief. I stand there quietly for a second pondering. I mean I know I'm strong. You know what YOLO. I back up then run and jump I close my eyes. In some way the feeling is euphoric and frightening then I'm on a plushy trampoline. I open my eyes slightly disoriented. I see Four and then I see the Abnegation girl. I stand and walk towards them.
''What would you wish for your name to be'', he asks.
I think for a second and I think of my family. I really do love them so much. What's the point of changing my name?
''Christina,'' I say
He nods. He walks over to the trampoline people have finally started coming down. Jeez it took them long enough.
I look over to the Abnegation girl and decide to talk to her she really is more than she looks. We talk throughout the whole day and I really do like her. I think we are going to become good friends. She balances out my spontaneous energetic attitude with her calm witty one. Her name is Tris; she has one older brother, and is nervous about joining the dauntless. I also tell her all about Candor. We are taking a tour of the faction and it actually seems like a nice place, other than the fact that there's a huge chasm, it's pretty nice.
''So Tris,'' I say '' Fours kinda cute isn't he '' and I elbow her in a conspiring manner. Tris blushes slightly and I grin. "I guess'' she says and shrugs. She then bites the inside of her cheek and looks away. Damn this girl is difficult.
"Uhuh sure! You've been totally checking him out. Why don't you go talk to him" I say. She shrugs and I leave the matter alone for now because Four is explaining something about the chasm and how not to be stupid around it. I slightly chuckle in my head knowing that that was not a problem for me. He looks down at his watch and announces it is dinner time. The fat kid inside me gets super excited. I tell Tris this and we laugh together…. huh maybe Dauntless won't be so bad after all. We all walk to the Dining hall and me, Tris, and Four all talk to each other. Mostly just me asking him questions and Tris' random input. To be honest I'm just happy they're interacting and I can't keep that smile off my face. We all get hamburgers and sit down together. I notice she is looking at the hamburger weird and I ask her why.
''I've never had a hamburger before' 'she says. My mouth drops in shock I can't believe this! Oh the poor girl I feel so bad for her and I give her a sympathetic pat on the shoulder tell her 'its ok' and 'I'm here for you'. She laughs loudly and states that it's not the end of the world so I can calm down. I laugh with her and even Four laughs to our surprise.
''In Abnegation they only eat Kosher food'' he says. I nod in understanding. Then I notice the hall gets slightly quieter and I see a guy probably around eighteen. He has some tattoos and piercings. But is still really cute whoa he must get all the girls. You can tell he has muscular arms and some abs. He has pearly white teeth and a dangerous glint in his green eyes. My breath is taken away for a second. He looks around and sees us then come straight towards us! He has a confident smirk I wonder for a split second why he is coming to us then turn my attention to Tris and give her the ' OMG he is hot ' look. She doesn't seem to really agree but I don't mind I start babbling nonsense to her about getting a tattoo. I just need to do something to stop myself from staring at him. He comes and sits down at our table right next to me so close I can feel the heat radiating off him. Goddamn if I was standing I would probably faint!
Hey Four'' he says. He then turns to us and says '' Hey I'm Eric" and looks me directly in the eye and smirks. I decide to play it cool and act super calm.
''Hey I'm Christina'' I say and give him just a slight smile. Tris introduces herself to him too but she doesn't seem to really like him. I continue talking to her and try to give none of my attention. Eric talks to Four about some Dauntless leader business and I'm not that interested in ease dropping so I give my attention to Tris. We start talking about what type of tattoos we want to get today.
I kinda want a butterfly" I say unsure.
Oh yeah that would be so pretty if you get it on the back or the side of your neck!" she says.
I was thinking of having it somewhere sexier like my hip bone or something'' I say moving my eyebrows suggestively.
I note that Eric glances over at me. Tris rolls her eyes at me when she sees my huge smile.
Are you a transfer" he asks. I nod
I'm from Candor" I say
He smiles. "Well then you must be a good girl since you've probably never told a lie in your life. But that's ok I like good girls" he says suggestively.
I decide to play his game. Since he seems a little too cocky for his own good.
I lick my lips sensually. He eyes get a little darker.
I lean in towards him even though I was already super close in the first place.
"Mhmm you got my attention since I saw you walk through the door. You are so sexy and muscular I just want to fuck you so bad right now" I whisper in his ear
He smirks. I stand up and give the sweetest most innocent smile as if I didn't just say the dirtiest things in his ear.
Hey Tris you wanna walk around for a little bit" I say. She seems surprised by my random but shrugs and gets up to throw away her trash.
We start walking away and I know Eric is watching.
I then turn around abruptly before we get out of earshot of the table and I say" Oh by the way Eric " my voice raised slightly. " That was lie number one"
I give a flirty smile. He glares.
When me and Tris get outside we laugh so hard.
"Oh my gosh Christina that was so mean!" she says. "But so funny!"
Now Tris don't get me wrong I still think he is hot but I don't want him to think that I'm easy" I say "he has got to want it bad before I give him anything!"
Then we continue on laughing and walk towards the shops. Oh only if I had known who I just messed especially I had known it was a Dauntless Leader for Initiates. But then again I was never known for thinking things through.
