Chapter 9

Tris POV

Tobias and I make it home and change back into our pajamas, I have Tobias lay down on a few towels so I don't get massage oils on the sheets. As soon as I put my hands on his back, I can feel a few of the muscles that are tight and tense.

"Honey. Relax please." I tell him as I climb on his back. I start by kissing each of the symbols, and tracing my fingers down his flames. He un-tenses immediately. I silently cry as I pour a quarter size amount of massage oil in my hands. I move my hands up and down his back, and rub lightly but firmly on the knot, while he lets out sighs of relief. After all the knots are gone, I get up and wash my hands. I feel two strong arms wrap around my waist, and his eyes meet mine in the mirror.

"What's wrong?" He asks.

"It.. It kills me." I say, tears running down my cheek.

"What kills you?" Tobias asks me.

"Seeing you hurt." I say, and I wiggle out of his arms and walk over to my cabinet, and grab my acne wash, toner, and moisturizer. He leaves silently. I grab a washcloth from the drawer, and then wash my face, apply toner, and moisturizer. I walk out, and Tobias is not in the bedroom.

"Tobias?" I say.

"In here." He replies. I walk towards his voice, and find him on the couch, with two plates of Dauntless famous Chocolate cake. "Here." he says, handing me a plate. I take it, and sit on his lap. He leans down and captures my lips with his.

"I love you." I say, putting my forehead against his.

"I don't know what I would do without you." He says, a tear escaping.

"Me either." I say, and I get a piece of my cake, and grab it with my hands, and go to feed it to Tobias. He opens his mouth, but I smear it on his nose.

"You are paying for that." He says, and smears cake on my cheek. I laugh, and I decide to use my fork this time, and feed Tobias. He does the same, and I forget all my worries in the world, with the man of my life, on the couch.

THREE MONTHS LATER…..

Tris's POV

What has gone on for the past three months.

Nicole turned Four April 15th, eighteen days ago.

Both Pedrad brothers are planning Weddings. Lynn is still the same.

Four, Christina, Zeke, and I are ready for the new initiates coming today, and my 5 month old baby is kicking butt inside.

Tris's POV

I wake up, and Tobias is not in bed. I crawl out of the bed and walk out of the bedroom. The bathroom door is shut and I take the time to make coffee. I want coffee so bad, but Tobias won't let me near the hot, refreshing liquid. A pot is already made, and I take this as my chance to get a cup of the heavenly drink. I grab a cup, and then the handle of the pot, and pour the coffee in the cup. I go to take a sip of the coffee when his voice stops me.

"You're mom is so Dauntless." he says, placing a hand on my stomach. I feel the baby kick, and roll my eyes.

"You're kid wouldn't stop moving and kicking last night." I mumble as I take a sip of the coffee.

"So when it does something wrong or bad it's my kid?" He asks me.

"For now, yes." I say, and he takes the coffee away from me.

"Are your ready?" He asks me.

"Excited." I say as I head towards the bathroom to get a shower.

DIVERGENT

I wear a black tank top, a black t shirt, black yoga pants, my boots, and my black leather jacket. I pull my hair back into a ponytail, and skip the makeup. I'm lucky that I won't be zipping up my jacket, because I can't. We've decided that we are going to keep our relationship quiet and see how long it takes for the initiates to find out that we are a thing. We grab breakfast at the cafeteria, then we walk down to the net and wait for the initiates to come. Zeke and Four are messing around, while I watch.

"You think that you two would be mature enough. Zeke, do you know where Chris is?" I say in my instructor voice. They stop, for a split second, and stare at us like little boys caught in an act. Suddenly, all three of us burst out laughing.

"She's in the training room." Zeke replies.

We hear Lauren giving a speech, and we know that the initiates are here.

Suddenly, a blur of gray comes down. I look over at Tobias and smile. It's very rare that an Abnegation transfers, it's only happened 2 times, and it was when Tobias and I transfered. It's a girl, and as soon as she hits the net, she lets out a sigh of what. I'm assuming is relief. She is probably at least half a foot taller than me, her brown hair in bun, fuller than I was when I jumped 6 years ago, and I feel jealous. We offer her our hands, and she grabs for Four's. I already want to punch her, but I keep a straight face. I hate to admit, but she already belongs in Dauntless.

"Name?" He asks her.

"Erin." She says in a shy voice. I realize that I'm not going to have to worry about her.

"First jumper, Erin!" He yells. "Welcome to Dauntless." He says, and I smirk.

"Dauntless born you're with Zeke and Christina. Transfers, with us." I yell. The Dauntless born file out with Zeke, and then Four starts talking.

"I'm Four and this is Six, and we will be your instructors for the next 3 and a half weeks. We will be showing you the compound today, then training you the remainder of your time here." He says walking backwards. Suddenly, laughter breaks out. Four stops, and I know exactly where this is going.

"What's so funny, Amberlyn, is it?" He says, his instructor voice becoming lower than usual.

"Nothing." She says. "I was just laughing because of your names. I mean, seriously why are your names numbers?" Amberlyn asks. She instantly reminds me of Christina. He walks towards her, and is mere inches away from her face."

"You two are Dauntless now. If I wanted to listen to Candor smart mouths I would've joined their faction." He spits out.

"I find him fun." Gina remarks sarcastically.

"Do you want to become factionless?" Four turns around and asks her harshly. She shakes her head no. "Then I suggest you two shut your mouth and keep your thoughts to yourself. As I was saying," He says, backing away from the girls and walks backwards. "Inside these doors, is the Chasm. Beyond that, is the Pit." No one laughs, and a sixth sense tells me that this amuses him. Four opens the door, and lets me go in, then the rest of the initiates.

"This is the chasm." Four says, leading us to the ledge. "A daredevil jump off this cliff will end in death. It has happened before and will happen again." Four says, and pauses, letting everyone look at the chasm.

"The chasm reminds us that there is a fine line between bravery and idiocy." I say. "Remember that." We lead them to the pit next.

"This is the center of life here at Dauntless. This is where you will get your supplies, shop, eat, and sleep." I tell them. We walk through the pit, and walk towards the hallway that leads us to the training room and Dormitory. We take them to the Dormitory first.

"You will sleep and keep your things in here while you grace us with your presence." Four says.

"Pick bunks! You have three minutes to pick a bed and meet us outside." I yell. While everyone enters the Dormitory and picks beds, Four and I wait outside.

"Right here is where we will start training tomorrow." I say after everyone is out, pointing to the door a few feet down. We lead them there, then step into the training room. They herd in, and observe the room.

"After lunch, you are given the rest of the day to adapt to your new faction, get to know it." Tobias tells them. "Be back at the dorms by 8 tonight to get your some basics, or be factionless!" He yells. All of the transfers wait for us to get out of the door.

"I see potential in this group." He says, his hand grazing my lower back as he reaches across the back of me to hold the door open. That contact alone makes me want to attack him. We lead them to the cafeteria, and we hope they aren't stupid enough to not know what to do as we leave them and go to the line. I grab two burgers, fries, a fruit cup, and a piece of cake, and head for the table. I see a few initiates looking at me and Tobias. Tanner reminds me of Al, and I have to swallow hard to keep the tears back. I sure hope history doesn't repeat itself.
