*TIME SKIP: ONE YEAR LATER*
Tris' POV
The blaring alarm is what wakes me in the morning. I feel strong arms wrapped around my body and cold hands on a piece of skin that shows on my waist. I slowly open my eyes and slam my hand down on the off button on the alarm clock.
"Morning beautiful." Tobias greets me like always.
"Morning handsome." I grin and turn towards him.
"Initiates today." Tobias states.
"Mmhm." I grin.
"I'm going for a shower," says Tobias as he stands up and walks towards our bathroom. "You're welcome to join me."
I consider his offer for a moment. I am officially Six now, so he has seen me on a number of times. I think "What the heck" and follow him into the bathroom. When I get into the bathroom he looks almost surprised I took him up on his offer, but quickly replaces it with a cute, boyish smirk. We both undress and get into the sizzling hot water.
After the shower we both wrap towels around ourselves, mine around my entire body and his hanging rather low on his waist. We both go back into the living room area to get back to the bedroom to change but there, in the middle of the living room is all of our friends.
"Ahh!" I scream. "What the heck are you guys doing here?" I say as I quickly try to tighten my towel.
"What the-"Tobias starts but is interrupted by the one and only…
"Bro! Nice! Looks like my man here was getting some!" yells Zeke.
"Wow…" is all Christina says.
"Well we just wanted to come see if you guys died in here, the first jumper will be here in less than 20 minutes!" exclaims Shauna
"Okay! We will be there in 10!" I shout before shooing everyone out.
Everyone stumbles out of the door and I can fairly catch a glimpse of Chris' face saying "you're telling me everything." I just roll my eyes at her face and run to the dresser to throw on some very tight and intimidating black clothes. This consists of a tight black tank top that has a very low neckline to expose all of my tattoos. In this past year of Dauntless I have added another raven on my opposite collarbone and closer to my heart to represent Tobias, I also have 4+6 tattooed on the inside of my right wrist, matching Tobias'. I also am wearing leather looking skinny jeans that are surprisingly comfortable, and my classic combat boots. I quickly line my eyes with black eyeliner and throw on a couple of coats of mascara. I run out to the living room and see Tobias has just finished getting ready himself. I look at the clock and see we have exactly 15 minutes until the initiates get here. I lace my fingers with Tobias' and we race out the door to the net to meet the first jumper.
We arrive at the net and meet everyone else. We are all a little awkward since our encounter this morning. I thought the awkward silence was going to kill me until I heard the loud screeching of the train and Max is giving his usual speech. In an instant everyone forgot everything that had happened this morning and we all drew our gazes to the net. Max finishes his speech and I take this as my cue to let go of Tobias' hand so we can keep this relationship of ours a secret for as long as possible. Tobias gives me a reassuring look with a slight smirk and wink. I just breathe deeply and remind myself to become "Six" not Tris.
A scream brings me out of my trance, but the scream was not of fear, more of excitement and adrenaline. I look at the net trying to see who the first jumper was and I see a bright red and yellow-Amity-and there wasn't just one jumper, there was two! Two girls to be exact, they looked almost identical, they both have the jet black hair, but one has it cut to her shoulders and was bone straight, while the other has it almost to her butt and it hangs in soft beachy waves. They one with the beach waves also has golden eyes while the other girls are such a dark brown they are almost black. I pull the short haired girl out while Tobias helps the other out.
"Names?" I huff out while trying to be intimidating.
"I'm Maria." Says the girl with short hair. "And I'm Jasmine, but call me Jazz." Says the girl with beachy waves.
"First jumpers, Maria and Jazz from Amity!" Tobias screams to the surrounding pack of members.
They both make their way over to stand behind me where all jumpers are supposed to stand. I go over to them and place a hand on both of their shoulders causing them to turn around with wide eyes. I smirk like a lion would their prey and say:
"Welcome to Dauntless."
I hear another scream and look at the blue falling from the hole; this is going to be the best year ever.
