Here it is! Finally the next chapter. After spending days editing my old chapters, this one is now ready. Enjoy! :) I do not own the characters, all rights go to VeronicaRoth.
*Tris's POV*
The loud clanking coming from my suitcase as I drag it over cracks in the road, slowing starts to drive me crazy. I enter the old dauntless building, stopping dead in my tracts, as the old memories come back to haunt me.
"Are you okay?" Tobias whispers in my ear from behind. I nod my head, and while putting on a fake smile, I take a seat in a corner of the room. "Christina will be hear soon, as well as some of the other initiates. I'll be in the conference room along with some of the other leaders. See you soon." Tobias winks at me before heading off in the direction of the conference room. I sit in silence, messing with a small chain necklace Chris gave me. It has a small black pendant shaped like a gun, strung across a sliver chain. Tobias often compliments my necklace, saying if he were to ever wear a necklace that would be the one. I laugh in my head, letting a smile spread across my face. A few minutes later an initiate enters the room, a smirk growing on his face once he sees me. He has short dark hair, and a tall muscular build. I turn my head away from him, ignoring the taunting look on his face.
"Well hello there, I thought this was where the initiates meet for the military training camp. I must be in the wrong room though, you look a little small to be a top scoring soldier." The man mocks. I continue to ignore him, hoping he will get the hint and drop this conversation. "You look sad, did I hurt your feelings. If you can't take a little criticism, then how are you going to survive these next few weeks?" He snickers.
Something inside me snaps. I jump out of my seat, only to punch the jerk in the face. He falls on his butt, a surprised look stained across his face. Dark blood spills out of his nose, streaming down his cheeks.
"We'll see who will survive these next few weeks," I laugh coldly. He runs out of the room, probably to clean up his bloody face. I sit back down letting out a long sigh, as Chris finally finds me.
"Hey, what's up," Chris ask. I look down at my hands, and her gaze follows, noticing the blood smearing across my knuckles. "Tris what happened?" She exclaims.
"Nothing, I just lightly punched someone," I trail off.
"Lightly? It's only your first day back, and you're already punching people Tris!" She stares sharply at me, as I look everywhere except her face. Gradually more people fill the room, and after letting out a long sigh Chris sits next to me.
"So you're going by Beatrice until the end of this course," Chris confirms.
"Yep," I say popping the p. The room is soon fill with both people and luggage, when Tobias, Amar, and a few other people I don't recognize step in.
"Listen Up," Amar shouts, killing off the last of the talking. "You and another person will be sharing a dorm. You have the next five minutes to pick someone then come to us. We will be giving you your assigned dorm. Only the same genders sharing a dorm, no exceptions." A few groans break away from the crowd. Two girls walk up to Tobias and start flirting with him.
"Hey aren't you Four, the war hero that help take down the Bureau?" One of them asks while fluttering her eyelashes.
"You're really handsome," the other girl coos. I can see the lust in her eyes which makes me want to slap that look right off her face.
Chris grabs my hand, "Four likes you, you don't have to worry those two tramps." Her reassurance helps a little, but the urge to beat them up has a hard time leaving. I watch Tobias push the girls away, so Chris and I walk up to him to get our dorm number. Tobias hands me a paper before winking at me.
"It's the closest dorm to my room," He whispers in my ear. I step back giving him a smile, noticing the heat creep up my cheeks.
As Christina and I walk back to our seats, Chris says, "I practically have to whole dorm to myself. We both know you're going to spend nearly every night with Four. I saw the way you smiled at him." I start blushing, knowing it's true.
"Now that everyone has a dorm," Amar yells," We will leave you find your new home for the next few weeks, and unpack." Both Christina and I, already knowing the layout of the compound, leave the confused group of initiates behind us, and head towards our dorm. I start unpacking my clothes into a drawer. I've only have few articles of clothing since I didn't want Chris spending a lot of money on me. I step into the bathroom to take a quick shower. The warm water helps unwind my sore muscles, and I scrub the dried blood off my knuckles. After stepping out of the shower, I dry my hair and throw some clean clothes on.
"I'm heading towards Four's dorm," I yell out to Chris, who is still unpacking her giant pile of clothes."
"I knew you would spend most of your time there," she laughs, "If you don't come back tonight, I'll understand." I roll my eyes before existing our dorm. I head to the room Tobias's wrote down on my paper. It was really close! I knock on the door. Tobias slowly opens the door, spots me, before swinging it open.
"Couldn't even go an hour without me," he chuckles. I walk up to him, wrapping my arms around his waist. I bury my head into his chest, letting out a long sigh. Tobias leads me inside shutting the door behind us. He smells of aftershave and the body wash.
"Did you recently take a shower?" I ask.
"Yes, why?"
"You smell really good," I answer. We spend a few minutes in silence, just holding each other close.
"You hungry?" Tobias finally breaks the silence. I only nod my head in reply. "I can order up a meal for us." And I smile into his chest at the thought of food.
"That would be great, I'm starving," I tell him. He lets go of me only to grab his phone to call the kitchen. We order some hamburgers, and in no time our food was here. We sit on his couch, slowly chewing down on our food. I start to grow tired, and lay my head on Tobias's lap. He knots his figures in my hair, as I quickly fall asleep.
Hopefully I can get a new chapter up soon. Most likely Friday will be the day. Please review, I'd love to hear all your wonderful thoughts on the story so far. Updated!
