A/N
I still don't own anything other than my OC's. I hope everyone is still enjoying this. I never thought that I would have so many favorites, follows, and reviews. They mean the world to me so I thank you all.
Giving the trainers a dirty look I take off running. This is something Wes and I used to do everyday when we had a free moment away from my monster. Looking over I see Wes easily keeping my pace even though I know that he can run so much faster with his longer legs. Doing this brings back the old joy of secretly defying Jeanine. Audi quickly takes up the spot next to Wes.
"I was missing this. Racing with my siblings was the only thing I miss about Amity. Besides my family that is." Audi laughs.
"You two go ahead. You don't have to keep up with my shorter legs." Wes looks hesitant before he and Audi run ahead. I soon get into a grove and zone out to the grunts and curses of my fellow initiates until I feel someone next to me. I know it is him before he even speaks. "All alone, Bright eyes."
"What do you want?" I asked.
"I was wondering how Jeanine's precious daughter knows how to run so well without being the least bit tired." He smirks.
"I was never her daughter not truly." I huff speeding up.
"Trying to get away from me," he asks easily keeping up. He turns and starts jogging backward in front of me. "The only way you can get away from me is if you become factionless. But even then I will find you."
"Are you threatening me?" My jaw tensing.
"I don't have to." He comes in close, running beside me once again. "I'm the least of your worries. Your last lap was three laps ago." With that he sprints away.
By the time I get off the track everyone was just finishing up getting ready for lunch. I easily find Wes and Audi waiting by the doorway. "What was that about?" Wes asks nodding toward Eric.
"Nothing. You know you could have let me know that I did three extra laps." Elbowing him.
"You never listen when you are running. I know to just let you run. How is your knee? I forgot to ask this morning when I saw that you still had a bandage on it." He slips his arm around me. "Did you bang it up that bad on the roof?"
"It is fine. I was going to take it off this morning but didn't have time." Leaning into him. "Marlene wanted me to keep it on a few days. Something about help to not scar. Its new so I was the test dummy. Her words not mine." Audi barks out a laugh. "Sorry." She snickers.
Marco comes barreling past knocking into me as we walk over the chasm bridge. I catch myself at the railing looking down into the churning waters below. "You dick you could have made her fall!" Audi screams at him.
"I tripped." He scuffs without stopping until Eric steps in front of him. He grabs him by the front of his shirt and pushes him against the railing. "If I ever see you so much as brush pass someone on this bridge you will find yourself hanging by your finger tips from the very railing you pushed her into." Eric leans Marco farther over the rail. "Don't think that you were not seen pushing her. Do I make myself clear? We do not tolerate initiates killing each other. You are warriors not rebels."
He lets go of him and walks away without another word. Marco slides down to the floor of the bridge before jumping up like nothing happened sneering at me.
"You know just how to make friends don't you." Audi shakes her head. "Shut up, Audi. I don't want to hear it." Wes just laughs walking with us to the cafeteria.
After being in Dauntless for the past few days it still hasn't dimmed my addiction to the hamburgers but its not all I eat now. Filling my plate with fruit as well as a large hamburger. "I still don't see where you put all that food." Audi mutters as she picks at her hamburger still not over her aversion to meat.
"She has a hollow leg." Wes jokes. "Ouch. No need to resort to violence." He rubs his leg from where I kicked him.
"This is Dauntless, baby." I chuckle before snapping my head up to look into stormy grey eyes as a plate is slammed down.
