Tris' POV
Last night was crazy, however I am still not confident with my body even though Tobias keeps telling me I should be. We walk down to the training room after breakfast and find all the initiates standing in a circle.
"Grab three knives each" Tobias shouts. They do as he says.
Tobias and I give them a demonstration on how to throw and hit the target. Things seem to be going pretty well until Thomas speaks.
"I bet Six couldn't even hit the target" he smirks and Tobias leaps into actions, but before he can saying anything I put my hand up to stop him.
"And what makes you say that? Because I'm a girl? Because I was from Abnegation?" I say quietly.
I throw a knife and it hits the target in the very left hand corner. Thomas laughs.
"Stand in front of the target" I say in a calm voice.
"What?" Thomas says, he looks as me as if I am mad.
"You heard me, stand in front of the target!" My voice is raising.
He walks slowly to stand in front of the target and I put up three knives, this brings back memories. I throw one of the knives and it hit the target just above Thomas' head. "Sheer luck" he comments.
I laugh and throw the second knife and it skims the side of his face. He stops laughing. "What were you saying about me hitting the target?" I smile "Move!" I shout. I don't know why I shout, I never shout. I notice that Tobias is no longer in the room. "Take a break, and I suggest that when we start throwing you all keep your mouths shut. Either that or you can be factionless, your choice I don't care!"
I storm out the door and go to find Tobias. It doesn't take me long he is stood looking over the pit, leaning on the rails. "Hey," I say "why'd you leave?"
He looks me in the eye "I didn't like the way he spoke to you, I went to say slash do something about it but you stepped and and told him what you thought. I guessed that meant that you didn't need me to defend you do I left you to it before I did something to him." I but my head on his cheat and sigh. "I love you Tobias, and I know you will never let anyone hurt me. Ever."
Tobias' POV
We walk back into the training room and the initiates start to throw their knives again. When Tris isn't looking I pull Thomas away behind the targets. "Get off of me!" he says with a demanding voice. I lean my face in close to his. "If you ever speak to Six like that again I swear to go you will wish you hadn't" I say with a low piercing voice.
"Is that a threat?" Thomas asks "How would the Dauntless leaders like it if I told them you were threatening Initiates?"
I breath in "I think you'll find that Max would agree with me, he believes in people having respect for the instructors. With out the instructors how would we mold our faction to be how we want them to be?" I smile "So, Thomas, watch your mouth. Or watch or back." I let go of his wrist and push him back around the side of the targets.
When we finish up for the day I send all the Initiates for dinner and it's just me and Tris in the training room. She is sat on a table looking down at the ground. I walk up to her and I kiss her as I feel her legs wrap around my waist. I pick her up and walk out the training room. I walk her to our apartment and place her down on the bed and I rip off her clothes and she does to me. "I am confident with myself now, have me. I want you more than ever" she whispers in my ear.
