Chapter 2:

Tris' POV:

Breakfast seemed to go by fast – before I knew it, we were on our way to get our room assignments.

As Will, Christina, Tobias, and I are on our way to get our keys, Christina keeps rambling about how we should go shopping later.

"We need to decorate our rooms," she says. "We need to."

After what feels like forever of this, I tune out, and I think Tobias has done the same. Will, however, is intent on listening to whatever Christina says.

Finally, we reach a desk in the… main office or whatever it is. There is a woman behind the desk, tapping away at the computer screen; she doesn't to notice we are here.

"Excuse me," I say politely.

Before I could say more, she holds up a finger, signaling me to wait. What's so important anyway?

"Excuse me, ma'am," I say much louder, with a hint of irritation. I bang my hand on the desk as I say it, which seems to get her attention, and some others. I smile. "My friends and I would like to get our keys, please."

Once I get to my apartment, I notice it is just across the hall from Tobias'. Thank goodness. Christina and Will are right down the hall. And I don't even have to see Peter again…

"You see that, Tobias?" I say once we're inside.

"Mhmm…" he replies, holding my waist and leaning me against the wall. Apparently he's been keeping up with my thoughts. "We should move in together some day."

"Nice… that would be nice."

He kisses me, and it's not hungry or possessive, it's gentle and sweet, and right now, it's all I could ask for – to be alone with Tobias.
