New Beginnings (Hunger Games/Divergent fan fiction)

Chapter 10

Tris' POV

Early the next morning, a loud knocking can be heard from our front door, and we tried to ignore it for as long as we could, but that only lasted for alittle while before the unkown stranger at our door found the doorbell.

After only a few rings of it, I feel the bed lift slihgtly, and a coldness creeps over. I roll over, and see that Tobias is no longer laying beside me, and groan slightly. I look at the clock beside me, and see that it is about 8:30 in the morning.

Another groan escapes my lips, and swing my feet over the side of the bed. I quickly run a brush thought my tangles, and pull it back into a sleek ponytail. I scrub my teeth with the toothbrush I brought, and bound down the stairs to join Tobias.

I don't see him at the front entrance, and soon I hear voices from around the corner. I can tell they are coming from the kitchen, and decide to stay around the corner and listen.

"So you finally found us jobs?" Tobais' questioning voice rings through the quiet morning air. I step a little closer, only to step in the wrong place on the floor boards, and a loud creak comes from beneath me.

Tobias and Logan both look in my direction, and I slowly walk towards them. I join Tobias at one end of the table, and face Logan. He nods his head towards me

"Good Morning, Tris. I guess you heard us talking. And to answer your question Tobias, yes I did find jobs for you all. For Tris and Peeta, we have a bakery that coulduse some help, and I heard from a little bird that there was some magnificent smells emmited from this house yesterday thans to those two."

A small smile creeps onto my face at the thought of being able to learn something new alongside Peeta, who seems to be quite a nice guy.

"And as for you, Tobias, you and Katniss will be going into the woods surrounding us, helping to scout out new land and clear more land for new housing."

I immediatly want to protest against this, many scenarios running through my head. First off, he would be out there alone with that.. that girl. Second off, we came here for our own personal space and to be together, and now they want us to be apart from each other for an uncertain amount of time each day. And last but not least, I really don't trust this Logan guy to much. He's to happy all the time to not be hiding something.

"Is that alright with you, Tris?" Tobias gives me that look that says 'if you have something to say, don't say it'. I sigh, and nod my head.

"I guess I don't have much a choice." I mumble to myself, just loud enough for Tobias to hear. He gives me a look, and I immediatly look down.

I hear light footsteps coming from around the corner, and turn to see Peeta and Katniss coming down from the stairs. Peeta catches sight of Logan, and smiles warmly.

"Oh, it's a pleasant surprise to see you here this morning, Logan. We weren't expecting you." His words glide over his lips effortless. Note to self: Peeta is very good with words.

"Yes, sorry to drop in on you like this. I just thought I would let you know about the jobs that have been assigned to you all."

He then gives the same speech to them that Tobias and I got moments ago, and continues on to tell us that we will be starting first thing in the morning.

"Okay, well I think that will be all from me today. I will leave you four to yourselves." He says a small goodbye before exiting through the front door.

"Well, this won't be much different for me." Peeta grins. "I did this back in 12, but you Tris, you're going to love working in a bakery." He grins again before walking all the way into the kitchen.
