Tris POV:
I wake up and look at the clock. 9:45. We had half an hour before we get to pick our jobs. I wake Tobias up with a kiss.
"Morning." I say.
"Morning." He replies sleepily.
"I'm picking my job today." I tell him.
"Any in mind?" He asks. I smile.
"That's for me to know, and you to find out." I give him a quick kiss, before dashing out of Zeke's apartment and back to Tobias's. I got dressed and looked around. This apartment was now mine too. Tobias comes in, his hair still messy.
"I have to leave now. See you after?" I say, grabbing a muffin from the cabinet. Tobias rips half of the muffin and puts it in his mouth.
"I'll be waiting." He kisses my forehead. I go to The Pit. Eric and Max are trying to organize everyone.
"Tris. Care to join us?" Eric growls. I glare at him.
"Everyone line up in order of your ranking!" Max shouts. All the initiates line up. Most of the Dauntless start filing in. I look around for Tobias, he was in the front line. I smiles at him and he winks at me.
"Congratulations Initiates. You have survived Dauntless Initiation and now will choose your jobs. We will start with Tris Prior, who ranked first." Max starts. The Dauntless cheer.
"Tris, what job do you want?" Eric asks.
"Initiate trainer for transfers and Faction ambassador." I say. Once again the Dauntless cheer. I find Tobias and he's smiling at me.
Uriah picks initiate trainer for Dauntless Born and chef.
Marlene picks nurse.
Peter, thank god, picks fence guard. That means we won't have to see him much.
Will picks control room.
Chris picks initiate trainer for Dauntless Borns and shop clerk. The last two ranked initiates automatically get fence guard.
"Initiates! Please go to the Dauntless real estate coordinator and get your apartments. We expect you to be at work by tomorrow." Eric says loudly. We all jump down from the stage. Since I'm living Tobias, I get to skip the apartment chaos.
"Good choices, Tris." Tobias says when I reach him.
"Thanks. And we get to work together once a year!" I say.
"That's the best part." Tobias whispers. "This calls for a celebration. Want to get cake?"
"Is that even a question?" I reply. Tobias laughs his deep laugh I love so much. And as he grabs my hand I don't have a single doubt that I am Dauntless.

AUTHORS NOTE:
How was that? Do you like Tris's jobs? Thanks for reading! I'm really excited for this story. I'm thinking about bringing Caleb into the picture. Maybe for a Candor or Dauntless game. Not sure about it though. Comment what you think of it!
