Look, so nobody seems to like this story. I don't know if I want to continue it after this. Please review if you want me to continue. 5 reviews and I won't discontinue. Actually I'll still post the few chapters I have written then I'll stop. Thanks to the one person who reviewed. :/

Leslie POV (sorry if this is bad I know nothing about Abnegation initiation)

After the ceremony finishes up, I stand up to leave. Then looking around and remembering my choice, I sit down, my cheeks growing hot. The Dauntless leave first, Becca among them. Then the Candor, with Kellen, Then Erudite, with Jake leaves. And last Amity leaves with Lacey; when she walks by she smiles at me. Once all the Amity is out, the Abnegation stand quietly and file out. I turn to talk to the person next to me, but remember. I'm gonna need to learn to forget myself before I fail initiation.

As we get on the bus, I see Jake getting into an Erudite car. I give a small wave, and he waves back. Then I climb onto the bus. There are not enough seats so I offer my seat to an Abnegation man. He nods in approval. There ends up not being enough space in the bus so I get off wanting to show off my good Abnegation side. There are about twenty others that didn't get on. The bus makes a sputter and off it goes.

"You guys could walk," an Abnegation-born guy with blonde hair and light green eyes offers.

"And you can come too," I insist.

"No, no I'm fine," he protests.

The others start to walk. "Come on," I grab his hand and tug him along. It isn't until the Abnegation houses are in sight that I realize I'm still holding his hand.

"Oops, I'm sorry," I stutter letting go of his hand immediately.

He flashes a smile, "it's okay. I enjoyed holding your hand." I blush a deep crimson, more than when I realized I was still holding his hand.

I follow the rest of the initiates to the government building. Marcus Eaton, the leader, stands on the steps. "Welcome to Abnegation," he begins, "Tonight in your honor the best cooks we have prepared a meal. After dinner, I will show you the dorms. Now, if you could follow me to the dining room reserved for special occasions. Like this."

I walk beside the guy I met earlier. I don't know if it's impolite to ask his name or not, so I don't. Mr. Eaton holds one door open and the guy holds the other. They both nod at me when I pass. I give a small smile, lingering at the guy longer. I try to let everyone be seated first, but it's kind of hard. Everyone is trying to be selfless. How do they survive? I mean they would have an argument for hours insisting the other person go first.

I finally just sit at an empty table close to the wall. The guy sits next to me. Other initiates follow. We sit there awkwardly until some Abnegation brings out plates. They look heavy so I offer to help, but they wave away my offer.

"Trying to kiss up already," the guy whispers in my ear making me jump.

"I am not," I protest.

He just smiles at me. An Abnegation woman leans in between us to set some dishes on the table. We wait until all the other tables have food too. The woman leans in between and pulls the top off the dishes plain chicken in one dish, bread in another, and peas in the last. I let everyone serve themselves before I lean forward and reach for the tongs, but the guy is one step ahead of me. He gets a chicken and puts it on my plate. I lean back. He gets me a piece of bread and some peas too.

"Thank you," I tell him.

"My pleasure," he says.

I give him a small smile and start on my peas. I'm about to put a spoonful of peas in my mouth when his elbow bumps mine and I spill them on myself. I start laughing. He gives me a warning look, and I stop when I realize everyone is staring. My face heats up and I pick my peas up. Then I take a bite of my bread, eventually everyone turns away. When I take a bite of chicken I want to reach for some barbeque or something, but I can't. I make a face but I hide it and hope no one saw.

Once the initiates and I are finished, Mr. Eaton motions for us to follow him. We all stand and put our dishes on a counter that looks into the kitchen. Mr. Eaton leads us to a pair of double doors. He opens one and lets us all file inside. Bunk beds line the walls. He informs us that we have to be up at eight o'clock so we can do something that he kept a secret. I see that one side has girl clothes on the beds the other has boy clothes. I select the bed closest to the doors on the girl side.

I change into a loose grey shirt and loose grey pants that I have to fold over a couple times. I put my boots under my bed. I meet the guy's eyes, and he motions to the hall. I nod slightly. He walks out first and I follow shortly after. He leans against the wall and I stand in front of him.

"Okay, I've been wanting to know your name all day, I just didn't want to ask in front of everybody else," he says and I smile.

"My name is Leslie," I say.

"Leslie," he tests it, "I'm Matt."

I stick my hand out, and he just looks at it weirdly. "Oh right, I forgot Abnegation ways," I say feeling stupid. I start to retract my hand but he grabs it with a firm grip. He gives it a shake and drops it.

I think I'm looking weird at him because he says, "I've watched others do it."

I nod and we head back into the rooms. Two girls stand talking by one of their beds. When I get back to my claimed bed, the first one offers to do my hair in a bun. I let her. She brushes my hair, and then twists it up into a bun.

"Thank you," I say politely. She nods and retreats to her bed.

I crawl into my bed and fall asleep thinking about the life I left behind.

Jake POV

After watching all my friends part ways, I stand up with the rest of the Erudite and head outside. Leslie, getting on to the bus, catches my eye and gives me a small wave. I wave back. Right before I get into the car, I see Lacey. She's with the rest of the Amity. Her face is tears streaked and her eyes are red, but she's never looked more beautiful. I want to run over to her and embrace her. I can't though, all because of my decision. I mentally curse myself. Lacey gives me a sad smile and I smile back. One of the Erudite pushes me lightly toward a car. I get shoved in beside a girl with almost white hair, that not natural it has to be bleached it doesn't even look good.

She's babbling in my left ear in an annoying high pitched voice, but I don't pay attention. I glance over and she's looking at me like I was supposed to answer a question.

"Sorry, what?" I say stupidly.

"I said," she says in her annoying voice, "what's your name?"

"Jake," I answer shortly not wanting to continue this conversation. She seems like one of those girls that's fake all over. Fake smile. Fake hair. Fake personality. Fake face. It all looks fake.

"I'm Britney," she trills.

"Nice to meet you," I say flatly trying to not roll my eyes.

I continue to block her out. She is probably gonna be one of those girls that are all over me. Lacey always looked annoyed when girls did this. I know I'm way more annoyed than she is when it happens. I always complained to her afterwards, what am I gonna do now? Who am I gonna rant to?

The Erudite building comes into view after about fifteen minutes. I've always loved the outdoors, I'm glad the building is mostly glass. We load out of the cars and a lady with blonde-natural-hair stands waiting for us. She introduces herself as Cara and tells us that she is our instructor for now and other times she invents new things. She leads us to a dormitory I'm assuming and tells us to change.

Changing out of my nice red shirt and jeans, I select a blue shirt exactly like the red one I was wearing with a collar and cuffs. I also select a pair of dark blue dress pants. After everyone has changed Cara leads us to a cafeteria. I walk down the line where you get food. When you stick your plate under a sensor it spits a 'perfect' amount of that food. I find it really cool. I hope I can be an inventor, if I make it into Erudite.

I select an empty table and slowly eat my food. When I look up I am surprised by about five sets of eyes. I jump back. All owners of the sets of eyes giggle. Every single one is a girl. Oh great. I catch the eye of a guy with dark skin and dark hair a table over. He mouths Sorry. And I mouth back Help Me. He turns takes another bite and then walks over to my table.

"Hey bro!" he says, "I've been looking everywhere for you!" He squeezes in between me and a girl. He whispers in my ear, "Do you want completely away from them?" I nod fiercely.

"I need to speak with you," he says out loud all the girls wait for me to respond. "Privately," he adds. All the girls shoulders slump. He stands and I follow him out the door.

"Oh my gosh, thank you so much!" I exclaim once we get out the door, "I thought I was a goner!"

"Hey, no problem," he claps my shoulder, "I've had it happen, I know what it's like."

"It happens all the time to me," I groan.

"Your name?" he questions.

"Jake," I respond, "Jake Bythe."

"I'm Ricardo," he tells me, "Ricardo Mayer."

"Thank you again for saving me!"

"Really, no problem, you'd do the same for me right?" He looks at me.

"Of course, after that," I grin.

He grins too. He suggests we go to the boy dorm, and I agree wholeheartedly. I change into blue athletic shorts and a darker blue plain t-shirt. Ricardo walks over to my bed.

"Hey, want to go check out the labs?" he questions and smiles mischievously.

I return the smile and reply, "Sure thing."

We sneak past the rest of the initiates and head down the hall, quietly, towards the labs I assume. I assume a lot. We arrive at a glass door that looks into a lab with metal tables with a lab set on each-beakers, burner, and chemicals, stuff like that. He opens the door, and of course it has to squeak. I cringe.

"Wanna make a table explode?" he asks.

"Who wouldn't?" I answer with a question and I grin.

He leads me over to a lab table towards the back. He grabs all the ingredients off a shelf in the back corner and off the table. I start to put one in, but he blocks me and informs me that is the last ingredient to put it. He puts most of the ingredients in and stops then looks at me.

"Wanna do the honors?" he asks and grins at me.

I smile wide and take it from him. "We'll have ten seconds to get away right?"

"Yes, we better hurry though," he answers.

I pour it in and we run for the door. Crouching down, we watch the beaker explode the table and itself. I hear someone coming and we throw the door open and run down the halls laughing like maniacs.

"That was awesome!" I exclaim.

"You bet it was," he says, "I don't do anything less than awesome."

Still laughing, we walk into the dorm room. All the other boys look at us. Quieting my laughs I walk over to my bed. I get into my bed and pull the covers up to my chin. I'd like to think Lacey is doing the same thing right now. I really shouldn't have left her. I was starting to feel more than just a friendship. I did what I said I would. Oh no. I rush to the pile of discarded clothes.

I dig through until I find my pants, which hold an important item. I pull the picture of me and Lacey about a week before the ceremony; Lacey just randomly said she wanted a picture. So I put my arm around her shoulders and she put her arm around my middle. She was wearing a yellow peasant shirt with ruffles in the front and a pair of red skinny jeans; I was wearing a collared yellow shirt and some jeans.

I also have the picture Becca took of her on my back, both of us laughing. The last picture I brought was all five of us covered in paint after a water balloon fight with balloons filled with paint. Lacey has a big pink splotch of pink in her hair; I had a neon green spot on my chest. All of us have our arms around one another. I miss them.

With my pictures, I head back to my bed. I shove the pictures under my pillow before climbing in and pulling the covers back up to my chin. I fall asleep quick, as I always have
