Tris' POV:
It's finally the end of initiation and time to see who made it and who didn't make it into dauntless. "Okay, we are going to make this short since eloquence is for Erudite. It's a new year, which means New dauntless members. We believe in ordinary asks of bravery, in the courage that drives one person to stand for another. We welcome you to dauntless, do us proud", Max, one of the leaders said before Eric took his place. "Your rankings will appear on the screen behind me, in one week you will choose your job based on your rank", Eric says before our rankings are posted behind him.
We all look at the screen and what I see surprises me. I'm ranked first. Once all the ranks are up we congratulate each other. The ranks where
1. Me
2. Peter
3. Uriah
4. Lynn
5. Chris
6. Marlene
7. Will
8. Molly
9. Matt
10. Ava
Someone taps me on the shoulder and I turn around to see Tobias. "Do you think a hug will give it away", he asks me and I reply, "I really don't care right now". Before he can say anything else I lean up and kiss him, around us everything goes quiet and I pull away. I look at Chris and Will, who have shocked expressions like everyone else in the room. "What, when, why didn't you tell me Tris', Chris shouted at me and stormed out. I look at Tobias before following Chris out so I can talk to her. Once I find Tris I say, "Chris, I'm sorry I didn't tell you, but I couldn't tell anyone because they would think I was dating him for my ranks". She doesn't reply, but she just storms off. I walk back into the dinner hall and am instantly surround by my other friends.
TIME SKIP PEOPLE!
After the dinning hall is empty I make my way to the dorms so I can change before going to Eric's office. Once I'm done changing I make my way to the leaders building, where Eric's office will be. 'I wonder what jobs I can pick since I'm ranked first', I thought, 'Maybe I will chose to work with Tobias in the control room...'. I'm brought back to reality when I bump into someone, so I look up and see Eric standing there. "Watch it sti-Tris", he growled at me. "Sorry", I said before he started walking the other way. then I realize I need to talk to him. "Hey, Eric wait up", I yell before running to catch up to him.
"What do you want Tris", he asks me, still keeping his pace as he walks. "I was hoping to talk to you about the jobs I can have here in Dauntless", I say. "Finally someone who tells me what they want", ha says after we stop in front of a door, which I'm guessing is his office. He unlocks the door and lets me in to his office, before following me in and sitting at his desk. "Alright, so you can be Leader, you can work in the control room, train initiates...", he starts saying, but I tune out and start thinking of what it would be like being a leader with Max and Eric.
"You could also be head of the fence guards", I heard him say as I tuned back in. "Alright I'll think about my options"I say before getting up to leave. "Wait Tris, can I tell you something private", Eric asks me before I reach the door. I turn around and say, "Sure Eric". He pulls out his phone and presses a button before telling me.
"Please, don't tell anyone, not even Four, what I'm about to say", he says and I just nod. "It happened when I was still in Erudite. I was walking home with my little sister, when we were attacked by the factionless. I tried to protect her, but in the end she died and I was sent to the hospital. My father blames me for her death", he says whispering the last part. "It might be a good time to share something that only my family knows", I say and he looks at me confused.
"This happened after school when my brother stayed after. I was walking past the factionless sector when some guys came begging for food, so I gave them some food. What I didn't expect was that after I gave them food they dragged me into a building. They gagged and blindfolded me using peices of my jacket. I don't know how long I was missing ,but when my mom found me she was saying it would be all right. Then I found out that the men touched and raped me", I said while shaking. Suddenly Eric pulls me up and wraps his arms around me. "Tris, calm down. Focus on my breathing or heart beat", he says and I do as I was told.
Once I finally was calm, I was suddenly ripped out of Eric's embrace. "Don't touch her Eric", I heard someone say from behind me, so I turn around and see an angry looking Tobias. Four pushes me behind him and punches Eric before slamming him into the wall. "Four stop, Eric was just comforting me because I told him about what Peter, Drew, and Al did to me", I say.
"I overreacted, huh", he says before leaving me and Eric in his office. "Here want me to walk with you to the infirmary", I ask Eric. "No it's okay. Go hang out with your friends", he replies and so I leave to find my friends.
Eric's POV
After Tris left Max came in and asked, "What just happened between you, Four, and Tris?". I just explain what had happened before saying, "I'm gonna go get my head checked out and head home". Max just nods and walks out before I walk out and lock the door behind me. Once I'm checked out at the infirmary I head home so I can do some paperwork.
The next day
Once I woke up I did the usually routine before going to the training room. I surprisingly found Tris in the training room when I got there. "What are you doing here this early", I ask her. "What does it look like", she snaps back before going back to pounding the punching bag. "What happened Tris", I ask her as I grab a punching bag to put up. "Fine, if you really want to know. It's Four, Christina, and Will", she answers.
