"Try harder, son. You're not doing good enough," Marcus starts taking his belt off.

"I'm trying as hard as I can. Leave me alo-"

"Well your hardest obviously isn't good enough!" He yells.

"Leave me alone, father!" I wince anticipating a hit. I open my eyes and i'm laying in bed.

"It was just a nightmare," I mutter to myself. I wish Tris was with me. She went to bed early after a long day yesterday. We had to prepare the training room for the initiates coming on Tuesday. I'm excited to train initiates with Tris, but i'm still nervous for this year as I always am. I'm nervous for Tris because every year someone jumps the chasm. I know she's still sensitive about Al, so I don't want her to depress abut that. It's Saturday, so we don't have any work. Today is just a hang-out day.

Every week on Saturday at 10am, we play truth or dare. When I say, "we," I man Marlene, Uriah, Will, Zeke, Christiana, Tris, and me. Sometimes Peter or Eric play, but I prefer them not to play.

Our version of truth or dare has an extra rule. If you don't do the truth or the dare, you have to take off an article of clothing. I head to my closest and put on jeans, a t-shirt, a jacket, four pairs of socks, and my tennis shoes. That should be enough clothes. I notice is 9:48am, and it's my turn to use my apartment for the game, so people will be getting here soonish. Knowing Dauntless, everyone will be late. I start brushing my teeth, but am interrupted by a knock on my door.

"One second," I yell with toothpaste in my mouth. I hear the door open and immediately get annoyed.

"I said one second!" I scream again. I see a shadow around the corner and can immediately tell who it is. Tris.

"Tris? Sorry, I thought you were someone else." I tell her.

"It's fine. I thought you probably decided I was Eric or Peter or someone like that." She reply's

"You excited for the game?" I ask her.

"Yea. I never thought i'd wear two sweatshirts and seven pairs of socks when it's that hot outside." She chuckles. So do I. I look at my watch and it says 10:00am.

"It's 10, people will be here in about five minutes. You been thinking about any good dares or truths?" I ask.

"Actually, yes, but you;ll have to wait and see what it is." She then gets on her tiptoes and kisses my lips. Tris has always been shorter than most people. I'm 6"3', and she's 5"2', so she has to reach to kiss me. I don't mind though, I think it's cute. I snap out of my daydream because I hear a loud knock on the door.

"I have to go get that, Tris. Be right back." I tell her. I open the door and it's Christina, Will, and Eric. I really was hoping Eric wasn't going to come, but to make matters worse Peter walks out of his apartment next door to join the game.

"Hey, Four! Ready to play?" Christina asks.

"Yep, but we're still waiting for Uriah, Zeke, and Marlene." I say the second I see them rushing down the hall.

"Sorry we're late." Zeke says, out of breath.

"We need Tris, too." Will points out.

"She's already here." I say and I Peter in the corner of my eye winking, "Knock it off, Peter." I say, and he immediatley stops,"Everyone's here, Tris!" I yell,"Come in guys. Just sit in a circle on the floor and we'll start." I tell them.

"Who wants to start?" Zeke asks and as always Uriah screams, "Me, me, me!"

"Alright little bro, go ahead." Zeke laughs.

"Umm, Will! Truth or dare?" Uriah says. Tris hears us start and comes and sits between Christina and I.

"Truth." Will says.

"PANSYCAKE!" Uriah screams. Will blushes, but Uriah gives him a truth, "What do you see in Christina that makes you want to date her?" Uriah smirks.

"What do I not see? She's gorgeous, funny, smart, and so much more!" Will explains.

"Aww, Will! Thanks." Christina says giving Will a small kiss.

"Okay, Tris, truth or dare?!" Will asks.

She looks and me and then confidently states, "Dare. I transferred to Dauntless for a reason!"

"Great! I dare you to get a new tattoo." Will says, thinking it's the best dare ever.

"Easy. Who's coming?" Tris asks, while standing up.

"Wait-you're really doing it?" Will asks thinking he got her stumped.

"Obviously. So, are you guys coming or not?" She asks again. Everyone immediatley gets up and follows her to the tattoo parlor.

"Tori! We got a dared tattoo!" Will yells.

"Okay, anything specific? Or does the victim get to choose?" Tori asks.

"I get to choose." Tris steps out. She whispers something and Tori nods then starts tattooing her wrist. I can tell it's a small tattoo, and I quickly realize what she's getting. Its a roman numeral four, and i'm guessing it's because of me. Once I realize this I go to a different worker in the shop and get a roman numeral six on my wrist. I remember I called her six once during initiation because of her six fears. Tris realizes what i'm doing and smiles. Zeke walks over to me with a questioning look on his face.

"Uh, i thought this was Tris' dare?" He says.

"It is, but she's my girlfriend, remember?" I say with a smirk. He rolls his eyes and walks away. Once our tattoos are finished Tris explains them on the way back to my apartment.

"Okay, since you are all my friends, I want to let you know," She looks at me and grabs my hand, "that Four and I are now a couple." She finishes. People gasp, roll their eyes, and plenty more unnecessary things.

"What does that have to do with the tattoos?" Marlene asks.

"Well, mine is a roman numeral four. Because of Four's nickname. And if any of you remember, i had six fears, so he got a VI on his wrist." Tris says. We finally get back to my apartment and Tris starts to decide who to ask.

"Uh...Four! Truth or dare!" She excitedly asks me.

I chuckle,"truth I guess." I say.

"PANSYCAKEEEEE" Uriah screams. Everyone ignores him because he does that every time.

"Why did you kiss me at Al's funeral?" SHe looks me in the eyes, and I realize she genuinely wants to know the answer. I'm not really sure myself, so I start to take my shoe off, "Seriously, Four!" She jokingly rolls her eyes. It's my turn.

"Eric, truth or dare?" I don't know what i'm going to do to Eric, but I love messing with him.

"Dare, duh." He replies with a smile on his face. I immediately think of a good idea.

"Okay. I notice you've never had a girl friend in dauntless, so I dare you to turn the light off and kiss whoever you've always thought was right for you." I know he won't do Tris, so i'm just excited to see who he will. He walks over and turns the light off, and i scoot closer to Tris. I hear footsteps past me and I realize who he's going to. My eyes easily adjust to the dark, but i'm not sure who else could see. I can faintly see Eric bend down and close in to Christina. Their lips touch and, luckily Christina backs away. Will must've realized what was going on because he immediately slaps Eric. Those skills would've been useful in initiation. I get up and turn the light on. Eric is already back in his spot.

"What the heck?! Get your hands off my girlfriend!" Everyone then knows who Eric kissed. Christina majorly blushes and Tris goes to comfort her. Eric looks a little flustered, but no one cares.

"On with the game!" Uriah says, "Eric, go!"

"Okay, uh, Marlene." He asks.

"Truth." She throws a pillow at Uriah before he can scream at her.

"Hmm, what were your aptitude test results?" Eric asks. She immediately takes off her shoe, leaving her with only one black stiletto heel on.

"Pansycake." Uriah mumbles. I look at the time, 11pm. We'll probably end the game in thirty minutes because tommorow in Sunday, a major initiation day.

Marlene says, "Four, truth or dare." I sigh.

"Dare, I guess." I reply.

"I dare you to tell me the truth right now. Why'd you kiss Tris at Al's funeral?" She winks at Tris. I take my other shoe off, left with my socks only. Marlene sighs.

"My turn. Tris, truth or dare?"

"Truth." She says.

"Okay, why's you kiss me back at Al's funeral?" I knew that was a good one.

"Well," I didn't know she'd actually answer,"I liked you ever since I saw you. And I loved the feeling of your lips against mine." She blushes.

"Well then." I say. I kiss her, everyone gags and fake barfs.

"Okay, I think that game was long enough, guys." No one disagrees. They all leave, which leaves me and Tris alone.

"You really feel that way?" I ask her.

"Of course. Why wouldn't you answer me?" She asks.

"Because I thought you would think I was stupid, but i'll tell you now. It's because, ever since you called me 'approachable,' I knew you were amazing. Al's funeral-I decided-was the only time we'd really be alone. I thought i'd make my move. It was all I imagined it to be. And it still is." I lean in for a kiss, and she leans in too. Once that heaven ends. We go to sleep. The last think I hear before I fall asleep is Tris' hand on my cheek and Tris' smooth vice saying, "Thank you, Tobias."
