"Final day! Everyone get up!" Four shouted and banged on the wall with a pipe.

"Oh I'm gonna miss you waking us up every morning." I said sarcastically.

"Oh I'm going to miss your sarcasm." He replied and I shook my head.

"I'm gonna be around for a long time honey." I said and he laughed before walking out.

"It's our last day!" I shouted and hugged Liv and Jack together.

"I bet he's sitting up there saying 'They're my bestfriends! I'm so proud of them!'" I said and they laughed.

"Yeah, let's make him proud." Liv said and grabbed my hand. We all walked to breakfast together and chatted about the day ahead.

"Uhm Brayden can I talk to you?" Someone said behind me. I turned around to see Eric and I nodded.

"I will get you both at the place?" I said and they nodded.

"Bye." I said and followed Eric out of the hall. We walked for a bit until we stopped in an abandoned hallway.

"I wanna say good luck." He said and I smiled.

"Thank you." I said.

"And that I hope that promise is still in place?" He said and pulled me close to him. I rested my hands on his chest and his slid down my back.

"Yeah of course." I breathed out and he smirked. He leaned down and placed a light kiss on my jaw then worked his way over to my lips. He pushed me up against the wall and slammed his lips on to mine. His hands gripped my bum and his tongue fought its way into my mouth. I pulled away reluctantly.

"Save it for later." I breathed and he laughed lightly.

"Will do babe." He said and let me go.

"Let's go be Dauntless and face my fears!" I said sarcastically and grabbed his hand. We walked together to the place we were being tested when he said he had to go.

"I gotta go meet the leaders. We will be watching your test." He said and I nodded.

"I'll see you tonight," I said.

"Oh, there's a party the day after tomorrow to celebrate the end of initiation and stuff, we will both be going." He said and I groaned.

"Of course we will." I said and kissed his cheek lightly.

"Good luck Bray. Be brave." He said and I smiled then walked away to the seating area and waited on the others.

"Hey Bray!" Liv said from behind me and I smiled.

"Hey guys. You nervous?" I asks and Jack shook his head.

"No but Liv is shitting balls." He said and laughed. She hit his arm lightly but still laughed.

"No I am not Jack. I'm fine." She said and I nodded. We sat in silence until Max started speaking.

"Okay the names will be picked at random, not in order of ranking. They are completely random. I wish you all good luck. First up is Pete." He said and I sighed in relief.

"Uri! Come sit!" I said when I saw Uriah and Lynn sitting at the other side of the room.

"Hey guys." Lynn said and I smiled.

"You nervous?" I asked her and she shook her head.

"No I'm chill, you?" She asked and I shook my head.

"I'm alright just now." I said and she nodded. We all talked about random things until their names started being called. First Uriah, then Lynn, then Liv and Jack. As usual, I was the last person in the room.
