I do not own Divergent!

Tris POV

I hurry up and unlock my door before Eric could see me. After I shut the door and lock it, I turn around.

My apartment is amazing! It has a big medium sized kitchen, a living room with a tv, couch, some chairs, and a coffee table in it. I walk around and find that there is a bathroom with a tub right outside a small bedroom. And there's a closet by the front door for coats and stuff.

I keep walking around and I find the master bedroom. Like the other bedroom, it already has a bed and nightstands in it. There is a master bathroom in the room as well.

I love this place!

I then realize that I have to go back to the dorms to get the rest of my stuff. So I walk out of the beautiful apartment and start heading to the dorms.

I am walking, minding my own business, then somebody pushes me into an abandoned hallway.

Eric POV

I am walking back to my apartment from the cafeteria when I spot Tris walking down the hallway.

I need to talk to her about what happened last night so I walk towards her. She doesn't seem to notice me so I push her into and abandoned hallway.

"Ahh!" She screams.

"Shh." I say.

"Eric? What are you doing?" She asks.

"Listen I need to talk to you about what happened last night."

"I can't talk right now, I need to go do something." She says.

I can tell she is lying. She just doesn't want to talk to me. And I get it. I just need to clear the air.

"Tris listen. I know you don't want to talk to me, but I need to know why you ran away last night."

She hesitates for a minute.

Then she says, "Eric. I like you too. I really do. It's just that I um. Um. I um."

"You what?" I ask.

"My fear. I have a fear." She says.

"Of what? Me? Tris I wouldn't hurt you." I say.

"No not of you. Of um. Um. Intimacy." She whispers.

I get it now. She thinks that's what I want. That's what I am going to want to do. But it isn't.

"It's just that if that's what you want I can't give it to you." She says.

"Tris. That's absolutely not what I want. If that's not what you want then that's not what I want." I say.

"Eric, if we do ever have a relationship, I don't want to make you unhappy." She says.

I don't say anything. All I do is grab her face in my hands and kiss her. The kiss is passionate and short. When I pull away we just stare into each other's eyes. Then she leans in and kisses me again. It's longer than the first.

When she pulls away, she says, "I need to go get my stuff from the dorms."

"I'll go with you." I say.

She doesn't say anything she just starts walking towards the dorms.

"So, why didn't you become a leader?"

"Because I don't think that I would be a very good one." She says.

"What are you talking about?! You would be an amazing leader!" I almost yell shocked.

"Yeah right." She says, but I can see that she's trying not to smile.

"I'm not lying. You would."

"Whatever."

We get to the dorms, and most of the initiates have come back and gotten their stuff. Tris walks to her bed and grabs a bag that was beside it. She puts it on the bed and opens up the drawer beside her bed and gets the clothes out of it and shoves them into the bag.

Once she is all done with that she zips the bag up and slings it over her shoulder.

She turns to me and says excitedly, "Alright! Let's go!"

I smile at how cute she is.

She starts walking to what is I am assuming is her apartment. But as we keep walking, I notice that we are heading towards my place. I started to think that that's where we were going.

"Are we going to my place?" I ask.

"In your dreams." She laughs.

We then stop in front of the apartment next to mine.

"This is your place?" I ask.

"Yup." She says, popping the p.

"Well, that's convenient. And coincidental." I say trying not to laugh.

But then she laughs so then I laugh.

"I'm going to get settled in." She says, in between laughs.

"Okay. Let me know if you need anything."

"I will. Bye Eric."

"Bye Tris."

I walk next door to my apartment and unlock the door and walk inside. When I shut the door, I lean against it.

Wow.
