"How to be a Heartbreaker" by Marina and the Diamonds,
"Radio" by Lana Del Rey, and

DISCLAIMER: Divergent and all of its characters belong to Veronica Roth.
I gaze into the morning rush in the Pit as Tobias and I sip our coffee. We are sitting in our favorite café. It Is a small place, and it's usually fairly empty because most people prefer a chain called Starbucks. The chain has been around for a long time, and there is at least one that is accessible to every faction, so it has grown upon a lot of people. I however, still would rather go to this coffee shop, Jett and Jenn's Java. The name is a bit of a mouthful, so most people just call it Java. Before we began training the initiates, It was a sort of morning routine. I guess It just faded away with the bustle of training.
Tobias sets his coffee down and reaches his arms across the table to grab my hands. I set my coffee down and let his warm hands envelope mine. "You always look so beautiful." I smile at his compliment. I suddenly feel the urge to wipe my hands on my shorts. I ignore the thought and focus on Four.
Finally I break our silence. "We should probably get to the training room. Knife throwing. Remember? This will be fun." A smirk finds a place on my face, lighting up my tired eyes. Tobias nods in agreement and we head off.
"I'm tired." I whine at Tobias, adding a puppy dog face for extra effect, "I need a back ride. I don't know if I'll make it otherwise." I smile and put my hand to my forehead, pretending dramatically to faint. Tobias snickers and I jump on his back, resting my head on his shoulder. I'm actually feeling quite relaxed, until Four starts tickling My feet. I start laughing and squealing and kicking my legs, and Tobias puts me down. We're only about halfway to the training room, so I walk to the front of him and put my hands on his shoulders, stopping him from continuing to walk. I look across the Pit, and as I'd hoped, his gaze followed mine. I then jump back onto him, the same as I was before, but from the front. He looks at me smiling and laughing. I smirk proudly and hook an elbow around his neck, pulling his lips to mine as we walk, just lightly, and then pulling away with my forehead still pressed to his. I pull my head away and just look at him smiling again. He slides his hands under the hem of my shirt, holding my hips firmly with his fingertips.
It's only now that I realize we're walking into the training room, but I really don't care. The initiates already have music playing, and one of my favorite songs comes on. There are no new songs, they are all from before the factions were formed, but there are so many that it doesn't matter. "Blue Jeans," by Lana Del Rey. (Look it up and listen to it for this part:D) I'm not so familiar with music because it wasn't allowed in Abnegation, but lately I've found It almost as necessary as breathing itself during everything that I do. Lana Del Rey has since been a favorite, along with a group called Marina and the Diamonds. The music is blasting and it make me feel like every part of my body has come alive.
The initiates have started to get used to Four and me, (A/N: you may not believe me, but yes, In this case it would be "Four and me." haha okayyy back to the story.) doing whatever we want, so most of them just continue chatting when we walk in. What catches my eye however, is that Alanna staring at us. I avoid eye contact with her and just attempt to push the thought away. I look over at the stereo and see that the music is playing off of my training playlist on my IPod. I must have left it here yesterday.
I turn back to Tobias and run my hands up his neck and through the hair on the back of his head, singing the words quietly to him. "You fit me better than my fav-or-ite sweater, and I know that love is mean, and love hurts, but I still remember, that day we met in December. Oh baby, I will love you 'till the end of time. I would wait a million years. Promise you'll remember that you're mine. Baby can you sleep through the tears? Love you more, than those bitches before. Say you'll remember, say you'll remember. Baby ohh, I will love you 'till the end of time."
"Damn Six. I didn't know you could sing," Four says. Now almost all of the initiates are watching. Four doesn't seen to notice; he just pulls me into him and kisses me. I pull away and glance at my watch. Training started 2 minutes ago.
"Ready to throw some knives at me?" I whisper against his ear, smiling.
