Time Skip
Lynn's POV (Oooh exciting!)
Today, this year's batch of naive little bitches (initiates) are coming! I hope they have potential. I'm training the dauntless born with some other random dude. You're probably like: WHAT?! Lynn training initiates? Max forced me to, because they don't have any more options. Why did I agree? Because I get 10 000 points!
I trudge out of bed and decide to look presentable today. I shaved my head a few weeks earlier, but left a strand at the nape of my neck and dyed it blue. Not much I can do with hair. I move on to my outfit. I go with a ripped black tank top that shows off the tattoos on my arms and on my back, and black ripped leggings. I place in a crystal ring into my nose piercing, a golden stud in my left eyebrow, and three green spiky earrings (in my ears, duh). I also add a silver chain. For makeup, I cover up my blemishes and go for a thick cat eye with purple lipstick.
I walk down to the cafeteria, and see Tris and Four laughing, while secretly holding hands under the table. Then, they feed each other cake. Tris gets it on Four's nose and Four gets it on Tris's forehead. I get my own breakfast and join their table while sighing. I wish someone would care for me like Four does to Tris. I want someone to love me just as much. They would sacrifice anything for me. They would make me laugh, hold me when I cry. I want to love that person with all my heart. Before you ask, no, I am not lesbian, I've heard many rumours. (I know in the books she loved Marlene, but I changed it. Go with it? :)
The golden couple quickly finish and scurry off to presumably the net. I follow their lead. Right before they leave the doors, right before I catch up to them, Max shouts to get everyone's attention.
"HEY DAUNTLESS! SHUT UP AND LISTEN!" he roars. Everyone silences and chairs squeak and screech as people turn to face him. Tris and Four freeze as well, and turn around.
"This is Ethan, Ethan Corell. He has just come back from staying in the other four factions for 4 months each, as a faction ambassador. There was some conflict between the factions, but all has been resolved. Ethan will be the other to train the dauntless born initiates. NOW GIVE ETHAN A WARM AND MOST IMPORTANTLY DAUNTLESS WELCOME BACK!" He points to a tall buff guy, looking about Four's age. And whoa, he is smoking hot! What the hell, Lynn?! You don't even know him for chocolate cake's sake!
He has messy tousled black hair, with a green stripe down the middle. Ethan seems to have hazel eyes, with obvious flecks of green. 1 of his ears are pierced, with a diamond stud earring. He's wearing a leather jacket over a tight fitting black shirt, with a pair of ripped jeans. Everyone whoops and cheers. He smiles and flexes his biceps, and runs down the podium toward me. When he's right in front of me, he smirks.
"Hey, it's Lynn right? Well I guess you're my partner for instructing the new kids, race you to the net!'" He takes off and I snap out of my trance and quickly bolt after him.
Tris' POV
I walk to the net, holding Tobias's hand. I feel a bit nervous. What if I'm a crap instructor?
Tobias, Lynn, the Ethan guy and I wait around the net. We hear a male shriek. Then we see a flash of white and black. A boy Candor.
"What's your name? You only get to choose once," Four barks in his instructor voice while reaching his hand in to pull the boy out. The boy replies immediately.
"Alex," he says while winking at me. I roll my eyes and snort. Very un-Tris like. But it works, he blushes and turns away to face the steely glare of Four. His eyes widen. I burst out laughing in my head.
"First jumper, Alex!'" I yell, and the dauntless at the net cheer. Alex smirks and walks to lean against a wall. He purposely brushes his arm against my exposed one, because of my tank top. I hold back a groan at his flirting attempts.
This continues on until we have ten transfers and 9 dauntless born.
The transfers:
Candor: Boys: Luke, Alex, Michael Girls: Alaska, Skye
Erudite: Boys: Jackson, Scott Girls: Jasmine, Avery
Amity: Girl: Eli
Jasmine and Jackson are twins, other than that there are no siblings. Ethan waves over the dauntless born.
"I hope you don't need a tour-" he starts, but gets interrupted.
"What if we do?" a dauntless born, Laura, challenges with a smirk. Lynn responds.
"Well, then you're factionless. So leave," Lynn says with a smug tone. Laura immediately shuts up. They all follow Lynn and Ethan to their sleeping arrangements.
Tobias and I walk away. I stop, sensing that they're not following us. I whip around.
"Who are you waiting for? Get your butts moving!" I command. They all scramble quickly after us. Tobias sends me a secretive smile at this. I smile back.
"I'm Four, this is Tris, and before you do, don't ask about our names or else you're gone," Four says in a sharp tone. Thankfully, no one questions that.
"We'll show you where the Pit is," I start, but I get interrupted.
"Such a great name, the Pit," mumbles Skye, and everyone snickers. I let Tobias handle this one.
"The first lesson you learn here is that if you don't shut up, you're factionless," Tobias says in his Four voice. Most initiates looked away. But not Skye. She bats her eyelashes.
"Come on, you know you can't resist this," she says, gesturing up and down her body while smirking. Tobias gets a glint in his eye.
"Actually, you're right; there is something I can't resist to do," he says in a flirty tone. My heart shatters and my stomach flips. I'm going to barf. How could he? If we were alone, I would be crying, but I do my best to keep my emotionless mask in place. Everyone else is staring intently at this exchange in shock. Skye smiles, apparently her plan is working.
"And what would that be?" she asks, her tone suggestive. Four smirks.
"I cannot resist the urge... to report you to our leader, Max for violating two rules. 1. Flirting with the instructor. 2. Questioning the instructor, especially about the Pit. So, maybe you should be factionless," Tobias says. Relief washes over me. Skye looks shocked.
"Honey, don't leave your jaw hanging, you'll catch flies," I say in a sickly sweet voice. She glares at me, but she and everyone else snap their mouths shut. I smirk in satisfaction. I release a small giggle. Tobias gives me a genuine smile. I smile in return.
After we finished the tour (with no more questions, thankfully), we lead them to the cafeteria. Everyone looks at us. Then, all of the dauntless compound start whooping. All the initiates look shocked, but then they are shove inside and carried over everyone, just like on my first day. I smile at the memory.
When everything has somewhat calmed down, Tobias takes a seat next to me at our table. Today, instead of it only being Uri, Marlene, Will, Christina, Shauna, Zeke and Lynn, Ethan is with us as well, next to Lynn might I add. I have a hunch they might hit it off. We quickly finish dinner.
When Tobias and I get back to our apartment, I collapse on the couch. Tobias laughs, and carries me off the couch and throws me onto the bed. I giggle, and rush into the bathroom to change into my pyjamas. It consists of one of Tobias's shirts and a pair of boy shorts. Tobias's shirt comes all the way to my knees.
I fling myself onto the bed, and bounce on it bit before settling down. Tobias comes out from the other bathroom and smiles when he sees me already there.
"I like the stunt you pulled with Skye, though you worried me for a second," I said jokingly. He laughs, but becomes serious again.
"Tris, I'll always love you no matter what. The only thing that could keep me away from you is death itself," Tobias says. He wraps me tightly in his arms and buries his face in my hair. I smile.
"I love you too," I reply and snuggle closer into him and press my cheek against his chest, hearing his steady heartbeat. Thump thump. Thump thump. Thump thump. In his arms, I feel safe, and loved. No matter where we are, how we are, we'll always be together. I'm his home and he is mine.
A/N Yay! Newbies! I used a name suggestion from each of you who requested :)
