Chapter one

Initiation was over... I made it, I was the top initiate even out of the dauntless born. The underdog abnegation girl is number one.

"Tris you did it" Christina ran and wrapped her hands around my neck. Will patted me on my back "ha you did it! You bet Peter and his goons." The noise and cheers were overwhelming but they didn't cover his voice soft in my ear.

"You did it" wrapping his arm around my waist. I turned around and started to put my hands around his neck but I stopped. "Go a head" he smiled "I've been waiting to do this" he leaned in and kissed me. At that moment I forgot everyone in the room and got lost in his kiss... A sharp squeal tore me from the kiss it was Christina looking at us jaw dropped to the floor, Will and Uriah exchanging money. No doubt there was a bet that I wasn't aware of going on about me and Tobias.

"Well well stiff, you definitely put me in my place!" A deep voice came from behind Tobias. It was Eric smirking with his hands across his chest. Now that I was in he was a little less intimidating but still intimidating. "Thanks Eric, I told you I was going to make it" I said smugly

"That you did Tris, oh Four I forgot to tell you... Poppy is back." Tobias went pail and removed his hand from my waist.

"When?" He asked

"Hours ago, she's been debriefing I'm Max's office... Ah speaking of the devil" we all look up to the top of the pit. A tall slender woman with tan skin stood at the top of the stairs. Her hair was copper colored and hung far past her breast... Which were overly exposed. The left side of her head was shaved and covered with odd tattoos. The moment she saw Tobias her face lit up. And her pace down the stairs quickened. "Four" she cheered running with her arms out. I prepared myself for a Hug but that didn't happen. Her long finger placed themselves on the sides of Tobias's face and she kissed him. My heart stopped beating waiting for him to remove her. He didn't... He didn't even move.

Running through the walkways I couldn't get far enough away.

"Tris wait" I stopped hoping it was Tobias but it wasn't, it was Eric.

"What do you want?" I snapped.

"You don't need to be alone right now" he said grabbing my arm.

"Since when have you been so concern about my emotional wellbeing?" He laughed

" I'm not, I'm more focused on having my top initiate being hurt or killed right after the ranks were posted." I gave him a confused look and he rolled his eyes.

"Peter, Molly, and Drew were watching you and as soon as you left they vanished as well, so will you please come with me?" He tugged my arm harder and started pulling me toward the east wing of the headquarters where the housing was.

We stood in silence as we headed down hallways and up the elevator to the 5th floor. We stopped at 554 and he pulled out a set of keys and let himself it. He moved to the side to let me in first and I hesitated.

"You aren't bringing me here to kill me are you Eric?"

"No stiff, if I wanted to kill you it would not be in my own home" I slowly walked in. His apartment didn't match his personality at all it was colorful and not dark and daunting like I pictured it to be. His living room was brown and crimson with some highlights of blue.

"Well this is definitely not what I pictured your place to look like" I hear the door lock and I jump.

"What stiff... I mean tris did you think I would have human sacrifices hanging around my home" he laughed

" no more like a coffin" I grinned

He gestured to his dining room table. "Sit, do you like tea?" I nodded and looked down at my hands.

"Eric who is she?"

"Who poppy? I thought you would of figured that out. That's fours girlfriend... Well ex. She works on the outside, she two years older then him and they started dating after we got in. She left a week before you got here and four ended it through a letter so I hear... Apparently she didn't agree" I felt a tear slide down my cheek

"Uhhh don't start crying on me now, I just stopped calling you stiff. We can revert back to that if you would like" I shook my head.

"Did he love her"

Eric laughed

"How In the hell would i know that? It's not like me and four are besties!" Another tear fell. He slapped his forehead.

"My god I'm not equipped for this" anger boiled inside of me.

"THEN I'LL LEAVE" he smiled at me and it was actually a soft smile

"No you won't" he handed me a cup of tea. "You will sit here until we get a call about your own place and drink tea." I opened my mouth to protest. "Yes that's an order stiff"

Loud banging startled me and Eric jumped up. He looked out the peep hole and mouthed (it's four) and I shook my head vigorously. I didn't want to see him not right now, nor did I want him to see me in Eric's apartment.

He pointed to the closet and I ran over to it but not before I put my glass up.

Banging sounded on the door again.j

"IM COMING" Eric shouted

"I know you spoke to Tris, I can't find her anywhere" he banged again. There were small air vents in the closet so I could see what was going on.

Eric swung the door open

"Geez for can a guy now masterbate in peace" Tobias's fist were clinched

"I know you spoke to her Eric, what did you do what did you say" Eric smiled

"First what makes you think I spoke to her u and secondly if any damage was done it was because you didn't stop Poppy" he paused "You can't blame this one on me four" Tobias growled

"If I find out that you-"

"If I what four, took her to a safe place because you were too busy with your tongue in Poppy's mouth? You made the perfect distraction that put Tris by herself and her enemies the perfect chance to go after her again. So please tell me what I did wrong" Tobias frowned and then turned on his heels and left.

"Coast is clear" Eric chimed And I walked out of the closet. I didn't realize it but I had been crying. Eric's hand on my face made me jump.

"Cheer up stiff, everything will be fine"
