Imagine: Being a new, badass, Dauntless leader, and Eric develops a crush on you. 

*************************************

"As the newest leader of Dauntless, you will go through four phases of training Y/N," Max tells you, today you have been selected to become the newest leader of Dauntless, and Max has held a meeting for you, "The first will be learning all of Dauntless' rules, Jared, will take you through that right after this meeting."

Max points to a man who is covered in tattoos and piercing and has bright blue hair, he waves at you, smiling, "Welcome to the team Y/N."

"The next phase will be learning how to interact with other factions, for this you will receive help from Victoria, our leader and faction ambassador," Max continues, pointing towards a tan girl with jet-black hair, which fades into a lavender-ish colour at the tips. Her ears are covered in piercings and she has a tattoo, which snakes up her neck. You've hung out with her before during your initiation, and you get an older sister-like vibe from her, she smirks at you and winks, you smile back.

"The third phase will be with me," Max pauses to give you a quick smile, "In this phase we will test and train you on your decision-making skills."

"Finally, the fourth phase will last for a few weeks. It is physical training, initiation was just the beginning of it, in order to be a leader you will need a lot more training than that. Eric will under see this portion of training." Max gestures towards the handsome asshole who sits across from you, you smile at him but he just gives you a curt nod. Ugh you could at least smile back Eric! The next few weeks will be hell.

"Your physical training will take place in the evenings, so once the first three phases are over, you will act as Eric's assistant." In other words, Eric's slave. Fuck you Max!

"Thank you Max, I will try my hardest to be the best Dauntless that I can be!" You say with false excitement.

"Alright, the meeting is over, everyone is dismissed. Y/N, you will follow Jared to begin phase one." You nod and follow Jared out of the room.

After three brutal hours of learning Dauntless rules, Jared lets you go to have dinner. You eat at the leaders' table for the first time, and you sit next to Eric. You reach over to grab a piece of bread from a tray in the middle of the table, just as Eric does, and you both unintentionally go for the same piece and he ends up grabbing your hand, you quickly turn your head towards him, locking eyes. The two of you sit there staring into each other's eyes for a few seconds, until Victoria coughs loudly, Eric's head snaps towards her and he quickly drops your hand.

"So Y/N, how was training today?" Victoria asks trying to stifle a giggle.

"Jared's bright hair was the only thing keeping me from falling asleep," I roll my eyes, Max and Victoria let out a laugh while Jared mocks hurt. Eric just stares down at his food not looking amused. Whatever.

You spend the next morning with Victoria, learning about how to behave with different factions. In all honesty, you learn less and laugh more with her. You love this girl. However, your fun ends after lunch when you join Max who goes over different scenarios that you may face as a leader, as well as different decision-making techniques.

You go to sleep that night worrying about your first day of being Eric's personal fucking assistant.

That morning you walk into Eric's office, "Didn't anyone teach you how knock?"

"Oh my God! It speaks!" You gasp, referring to how Eric hasn't said a single word to you since you were offered this leadership position.

"Don't forget who I am Y/N," Eric growls.
