"One look, and I'm mesmerized by your eyes.

You're coming like a hurricane, blowing down on me"


TRIS

I sat our usually cafeteria table, looking at the distant wall not thinking about the wall at all, but about something different. I feel, as this past days, that I actually made the right decision. I smile at myself, thinking how long it took for Four and I to actually be together. It took one whole story.

The thing is, I never expected it would be this unpredictable. I thought it'll be the usual boy meets girl. You know, flowers and chocolates but for the past days, it wasn't like that, it was never like that. It was a different kind of scenery and it's my love story.


I felt a pair of hands cover my eyes and just feeling his masculine fingers, I already know who it was.

"Four," I said, with a are you serious tone. He laughed and sat beside me, kissing me slightly.

Marlene and Uriah were smiling in front of us and I mouth a "what?" but they just shake their heads and excuse themselves from the table.

Will was elbowing Christina and Christina seemed annoy. You actually heard her whisper a "Don't be so stubborn. Look at them, they're so cute." Will roll his eyes and yank Christina away the table after whispering something to her, something that was definitely a whisper because none of us made the words out.

Now, only Four and I were left at the table.

He stares at me then places a big slice of Dauntless cake in front of me.

I can't but smile. I know, why smile? It's just Dauntless cake. But do you know those moments when a guy doesn't do anything, he just does all of things as normally as he could, yet he still looked cute. And that was Four. He wasn't trying hard to make me happy, he just does. As if he was bound to do it to me that it was too easy to even try.

"Is this mine?" I asked pointing at the cake. He rolled his eyes and yanks the cake away from me.

"No, it's mine" I sigh and he laughs, putting the cake back to it's normal place as we eat it together.

"Busy day today, huh?" I said. He nods.

"New initiates. What can we do?" He clarifies as if I don't know about that anymore. I don't say anything. He looks at me, takes my chin and lifts my head upwards so that I can look straight into his eyes. Those eyes, those dazzling eyes of his. Those that make my heart melt and my lips curve into a smile. Those eyes that I can't get enough of.

"Don't worry. As soon as the training is over, I'll be with you. Alright. I promise." I nod and then he kisses me on the cheeks before we were called to go to Abnegation to see the all the 16 year olds picking a Faction for themselves.


It was different watching it from this side, where you can see all of those 16 year olds, slicing up their arms to pick over different factions. I look over at the Erudite stand to see if I can see my brother but I can hardly recognize him, I don't know if he is even there. At the Abnegation stand, it wasn't that hard to find my parents. Both of them were staring at me, I stare back but just for a couple of seconds as if I was just passing my gaze through them. But I saw them, and I bet they saw me. As the last name from the list was called, and all Dauntless transfers and those who decided to stay at Dauntless follow after us. The feeling of running out of Abnegation, towards the train, was overwhelming. This wasn't me. I was once a part of this crowd, so scared and curious of what will become of me, of what Dauntless will bring to me.

The trains were almost to where we were.

Christina and I shout over the loud noise that is coming from the train.

"When the train comes, it won't stop" Christina says. Curiosity was then obvious in most of the faces of the Dauntless transfers. The Dauntless born-initiates looks so confident. I roll my eyes at how proud they were. What they don't know is that half of them will be Factionless by the end of the month.

The train comes closer and closer, and the noise gets louder and louder.

"The only thing you have to do..." I look behind me, waiting for the train to pass me. As soon as I can see the first train opening, I shout, "is jump!" then I jump.


FOUR

"Will you please stop pacing, Four? It's making me dizzy" Lauren says and I stop. Not only was she dizzy, but I felt lightheaded myself.

"Why are you so worried, anyways?" Lauren asks.

"It's just, it's Tris. Gosh, I shouldn't have let her go. She's so stubborn" Lauren shushed me. I didn't realize I was talking to fast. She rolls her eyes and says, "Tris is Dauntless. She'll be fine. Don't be such an overprotective boyfriend" Lauren says as she waits for anyone to jump, even though we haven't seen the train pass by.

I sigh, knowing that it wouldn't help if I worried, so I sat beside Lauren waiting for the trains to pass above us.


Sooner or later, the trains' deafening cry pierced through our ears. We look above, seeing if anyone was wanting to jump, if anyone was already on the edge.

"Remember last year?" Lauren said as she nudged me with an elbow. Why would I even forget about last year? Last year was when Tris jumped, last year was when I actually fell in love. When I touched her hand for the first time and feeling an electric feeling pass by me right through the spine. It was in that moment that I knew, Tris would be something meaningful in my life and now, she is.


TRIS

Most of the Dauntless initiates made it, impressive. Compared to last year, their numbers were larger than ours. More or less, only 7 didn't make it. One of which, was a Dauntless born.

The initiates stand in a big crowd in front of Christina and I. They're looking around, looking to see where to go next, and what to do.

"So, you might be wondering where we are?" Christina says. Half of our company nodded.

"Do you want know how to get to Dauntless? Well, it's simple" I say standing at the edge of the building. "You just have to jump" I said. A girl in front of me, grunted.

"Jump, again. My feet are aching" she said. Christina stands in front of her. "Well, if you don't want to jump little missy then go back home. Oh wait, you can't" Christina says. Another girl was leaning onto the edge checking to see what was down below.

"If we wanted to have our death wish, we could have just slipped off the train. How are you sure it'll be fine if we just jump?" The girl said. Christina stands beside me. "We're living proofs" The girl who asked the latest question positioned herself at the edge, taking a last look below then jumped. You could hear her screaming, her screams echoing through the walls. Then just as expected, her screaming stops.

I turn back to the crowd who was practically awe-struck and said, "Next!"


FOUR

Lauren and I were just talking when we suddenly heard screaming from above. We look up as we saw a girl falling down. By the look of her clothes, it was easy to say that she was from Amity. You can hear her grunt just as her body hit the net a little below us. Once Lauren and I checked that she was 'fine' I extended my arm to her. She grabbed it instantly.

Lauren walked beside me and whispered, "Watch out. She might fall in love with you" I rolled my eyes and introduced myself.

"Four!" I extended my arm for her to shake. She dusted the dirt from her clothes and shook my hand saying her name, "Kat" and then she smiled, at me. Lauren snickered at the back. I stare at her and she raises her hands in surrender.


Once Christina was back down, and all the other initiates was with us, I just waited for Tris. Most of the initiates were looking at me, as if asking me what to do. Can't they wait for a couple of minutes, I still have to check if Tris is alright.

"Four, let's go" Lauren said. Having no choice, I lead the new initiates inside, passing by Christina and whispering for her to wait for Tris. She smiles and nods.


As soon as the day was over, I went to my room to rest. This day was so hectic and tiring. I went to the bathroom to change and take a bath. As soon as I started the shower, I heard a knock on the door. Sighing, I went to check it out.

It was Tris.

"Hey." she said, standing at the door.

"Hi." I answer back. "So, want to catch dinner with us?" she asked.

"I'll just take a bath." I said. She nods, putting her hands on her back pocket and swaying on her tracks.

"Alright, I'll wait for you here" she said. I insisted that she wait inside but then she said she liked the view, especially now that new people were lurking around.


TRIS

I lean onto the glass railing, watching over the Pit. It was, still, a sensational view. It was like Banquet night, everything from the Initiate rooms to the club, teeming with lights of all colour. I stare at the bottom and see new initiates but then I saw something that stroke me as odd. An initiate, Kat I think was her name, was looking here, looking right at this floor. I don't know if she was looking over at me, or right through me, through Four's door. I look back. His door was still closed. When I stared back at her, she was gone.

The door behind me opened and Four was shaking his wet hair and just wearing a black leather jacket.

"Ready?" he asked. I nod.

He puts his hand over my shoulder, and we walk towards the cafeteria. I look back.

As we got to the cafeteria, I felt stares burning the back of my head. I didn't dare look back. It wasn't that I was frightened but I really didn't want to expect anything. We spotted Christina and Will at one of the tables, just at the middle.

"Change of table?" I ask as we sat down.

"No! Apparently, someone got to our table first." I look back and saw that a bunch of Dauntless-transfer from Candor was sitting on our table, acting wild, maybe because they got to Dauntless. Good luck to them for the next days. I then scan the crowd. Uriah and Marlene was on the line. I can't see the others. They might be here somewhere, trying to pry their ways to the crowd of people. This was more people than I expected. More initiates to let down. I sigh.

"I'll get us some dinner" Four says. As soon as he left, he was swallowed up by the crowd.

I nod. Again, I scan the crowd just so I can have something to do. Then I spot her, looking at the dinner line. I don't take my eyes away from her, as she doesn't take her eyes away from the dinner line. Will nudged me and asks, "Who is she?" I look at Will and she looked at the direction I was staring. Seeing us, Christina turned and try to see the direction we were looking at.

"Is that not Kat? The girl from Amity" Christina says.

"I guess so" Four walks back to us, holding Four plates. She passed the two to Christina and Will then one to me. I look back at Kat's table and she was staring right towards us. It's as if Four was a magnet and she was a piece of metal. She can't stay away, and her gaze always following after him, always sticking around.

"She's looking at you." I say, the moment Lauren sat beside me. She looked back and saw Kat.

"Yeah, she's been looking at you since a while ago." Lauren says. Four just shrugs and ignores the topic but I can't.

Kat raised a brow at me, smirking. She then removed her gaze and looked back at her friends.
