I need more reviews please
Previously:
"It's okay Beatrice, I always admired the dauntless too, I love everything about them, their bravery and loyalty. One day, we will both be able to transfer to dauntless. I think we're going to be great friends Beatrice."
Beatrice POV
I looked at him shocked, I didn't think there was anyone else that felt that same way as me. "Maybe in a year when we're both older, we can start preparing for dauntless", I say, hoping he'll agree with me.
"Ya, that would be awesome. We could both train together and prepare for dauntless."
"Maybe we can walk together to school everyday and talk about how we'll train to become dauntless... I mean if it's okay with you", he says nervously.
I start laughing at his expression and he just turns even more red cause me to laugh even harder. When I finally stop laughing, I answer yes. And with that we both walk to our houses. Before I open door, I call his name and he turns around.
"Your my best friend from today Tobias", I tell him.
"Your my best friend too Beatrice".

10 months later...
Tobias POV
It's been ten months since Beatrice and I first met. We've walked to school and back every single day. She even told me we were best friends, but what I'm really excited to see her today. Yesterday Beatrice had left me a note that said she had a surprise for me today and that it was something to do with the dauntless! I'm taken out of my thoughts by the school bell ringing. I take my books and go wait outside for Beatrice.
Beatrice POV
I was walking to lunch when I bumped into something. stupid me. I looked up to see a dauntless reaching his hand out. I quickly grab it and apologize. I pick up my books and start walking but he stops me.
"Sorry, I wasn't watching where I was going. Would you like to sit with me and my friends at our lunch table?", He asks
"We're not suppose to sit with other faction members", I say quietly.
"I know, but they never said it wasn't allowed. By the way, I'm Uriah." He replies quickly.
A big smile grows on my face. " I'm Beatrice."
"Well then Beatrice, let's get going." He says grabbing my hand and pulling me with him.
When we reach his table, they all turn an look me. My cheeks turn red, it's not everyday you see an abnegation sit a dauntless. Uriah introduces me to everyone.
"This is Marlene, Lynn, Zeke (my ugly twin brother), and Shauna zeke's girlfriend." Uriah says.
"Hi, I'm Beatrice."
"Beatrice, that's too long...how about Tris", says the girl with short hair, Lynn, I think.
"Tris... I love it", says Uriah.
I sit down and start eating my peas and chicken breast, while Uriah is complaining that he forgot a butter knife to cut the cake.
"Uri, why don't you just use your throwing knives", says Marlene.
"Good idea, Marmar", he says and I see him take out a real knife and my eyes grow wide. He quickly cuts the cake and looks at me, but I'm still looking at the knife.
"Tris how about you keep this knife and practice throwing it, and maybe you can transfer to dauntless when you choose", Uriah says. I just nod my head and they all laugh.
Uriah tells me everything about dauntless Initiation, how you practice shooting guns, throwing knives, and that you have to fight people too. Best of all, he told me that the dauntless have an old gym between the faction less sector and the abnegation sector, that they haven't used in years. Uri told me that there a lot of knife targets and punching bags in there. I couldn't wait to tell Tobias and start practicing. I quickly say bye to everyone and head out.
Sadly, I couldn't see Tobias today because my brother offered to walk with me and I couldn't talk about dauntless with Caleb here, so I just wrote a note to Tobias and put it on his doormat, hoping he got it.
Please review more and I'll keep posting as much as I can
