Tris woke up in the morning and felt warm arms encasing her body. She inhaled deeply and sighed with relief at how relaxed she was. Her gaze fell on the sleeping body next her. Eric looked so much younger while he slept. All the hard persona was wiped clear and he actually looked his age. She thought back to when she was an initiate and remembered thinking that he was the coldest man she had ever met. It had only been after working together she was able to see his real personality. She had realized that he was extremely hard on the initiates so they would end up being strong, fearless soldiers.

Tris shifted her position and draped her leg over his high, and lightly lifted his arm off of her so she could partially free herself. She lifted the sheet off of them and started to lower herself down his body until she was next to his already firm morning wood. She looked up at him and he was still sleeping. She kissed her way up his length and licked his tip and he twitched lightly beneath her. She took his tip into her mouth and swirled her tongue as he became harder and he let out a heavy breath. She worked her way farther down his length and closed her mouth around him. She felt a hand lightly at the back of her neck and she looked up to meet his still sleep hazy eyes.

"Fuck Tris…I've dreamed of you doing this…" Eric gasped out.

She started to move her mouth up and down stopping at the tip each time to swirl her tongue. Eric was moaning and had his head thrown back and eyes closed. When he started to tighten his hand in her hair she started to make her way back up his body, kissing her way up to his chest, along his neck and to his mouth. He took her lips roughly while she straddled his lap and slowing started to lower herself on to him. She sat up and slowly started to move her hips as his hands worked their way to her breasts and down to hips. Tris had never taken control and she loved every second of it. She loved that she was in charge of the pace and whenever she lifted almost off him he whimpered. She was teasing him with her slow and leisurely pace. He sat up and wrapped his arms around her waist and gripped her shoulders from behind with his hands. He pulled her down harder on to him and she moaned loudly. She quickened her pace and soon her climax came as she bit down on his neck. He moaned at the pain and came deep into her. He laid them back down and he kissed her slowly.

"I've never been woken up that way," Eric said to her.

"Well I've never woken anybody up like that," she giggled. "Are you hungry?"

"Starving."

"I'll make you something," she said getting out of the bed and throwing on his t-shirt from the night before. She made her way to her dresser and pulled out a pair of tiny shorts. "Do you think I should make enough for Jason and whoever he had in there with him?"

"She probably isn't even here anymore," the both laughed.

She made a quick fruit salad, sausage patties and eggs and called Eric to the kitchen. She poured him a coffee and set his plate down. Before he sat down he grabbed her face in both hands and kissed her.

"Looks great Stiff," he smirked at her.

"Are you always gonna call me that?" she asked.

"Probably," she chuckled at his response. "I think after we eat we should go through all the weapons one time before tomorrow."

"Okay. What time do I need to be up and ready by tomorrow?"

"We need to make our way to the Pit at 11am. The entire faction will be there and from there we will head to the course that's been set up for you. I can't tell you where it will take place or what the course actually consists of. I do have a surprise for you though," he told her with a mischievous grin.

"A surprise?" she asked with raised eyebrows.

"Yep, more like a fact I withheld so that it can be a surprise. You will see at the end of the course. Don't ask me because I will not tell you," he grinned as she made a pouty face at him.

After they had both showered they made their way down to the training room. Eric took out an array of weapons while Tris set up multiple targets throughout the room. He made her shoot each target ten times dead center, and the knives that she threw had to hit every major artery on a body. After they had gone through every weapon, they decided that they should go for a run. They ran around the outside of the complex a couple of times until it was time for dinner. They made their way to the Pit and grabbed some food and sat at their normal table.

"Tris I am so excited to see your course tomorrow," Christina squealed.

"I can't wait either. I'm a little nervous though. I still don't really know anything about it beside the weapons I know I will be using. Are we still all going to get together for dinner tomorrow after?" Tris asked.

"Yeah, Zeke and Uriah said we can do it at their place. We have everything taken care of so all you need to do is show up looking cute," Christina winked at her.

"Chris please tell me this will not be huge thing," Tris pleaded. Christina gave her an evil smile.

"Stiff let's get going. You need a good night rest," Eric said winking at her.

As they were making their way around the table Eric shocked her by taking her hand in his. She looked at him with wide eyes and he gave her hand a squeeze. She smiled at him and blushed. She hadn't noticed everyone around them had gone silent and were staring at them until Christina broke the silence.

"Pay up Lynn. I fucking told you so," Christina yelled down the table, which made Tris blush even more.

"Oh God," she groaned while Eric chuckled at her and they continued walking. There were more eyes on them as they made their way through the corridors.

"Well I had to," he defended himself. "After all these men see you tomorrow, they would have been lining up to have a chance. I'm sure this," he holds their entwined hands up, "will make it all the way around by tomorrow, and they will all know that you're taken."

"Is that what I am huh, taken?" she smiled at him.

"Unless that's not what you want," he told her looking her in the eyes. She smiled at him and stopped walking. She stood on her tip toes and pressed her lips to his.

"That is exactly what I want," she whispered and kissed him again. She pulled back and he bent his head down to rest their foreheads together. "Let's go home."
