I wake up and Tris is curled against my chest, my arms wrapped around her. We haven't moved much since we went to sleep.
I stand up, gently sliding my arms from her, and go to shave.
I'm just finishing up when I feel small arms wrap around my torso. She puts her forehead on the nape of my neck, and I put my hands over hers. We stay like that, until she breaks the comfortable silence.
"I need to go to work." She had no idea how much I hated that line.
"I do too." I sighed. "Meet you for lunch?"
"Is it okay if we eat in the cafeteria?" She asks
"Of course." I turn and kiss her forehead, before she moves away. When she does pull away, She does the same move as before, running her hand through her hair, then walking out.
I smile and shake my head a little. I don't even know why. I guess it's just her. She makes me happy.

I'm working in the gym today, just cleaning the equipment, when Will comes in.
"Hey. Four right?" He asks, sticking out his hand.
What? I haven't used Four since the.. Oh. Duh.
"Not really. Tobias actually." I answer, taking his hand and shaking it twice. I never got why people shake hands. I mean what's it gonna do? Not make you know that person automatically that's for sure.
"Ok." He doesn't press any further, and I'm glad.
"What do you wanna sign up for?" I ask, changing the subject.
"Um I dunno. Lifting weights I guess." He says.
"Ok." I turn, sign his name on the list, and set up the weights.
He starts, and I go back to cleaning. After about 15 minutes, he speaks again.
"So you, uh, hang out with Tris a lot?"
What? Does Tris talk about me that much? It's sweet and all, she just never was the kind who talks about her relationships.
"Yea..." After a second I ask "Why?"
"I was just, you know, wondering."
Hmm. Okay. That happened. Then he opens his mouth and says the last thing I expected him to.
"Does Tris ever talk about me?"
WHAT!? Does Will have a thing for Tris? But isn't he supposed to like, go out with Christina? No no no no no no no. I really want to turn and slug him, but I keep my cool.
"Not really." After a moment I add, "Why?"
He looks over at me like I'm little kid who doesn't get something. "Dude, she's hot. I'm thinking about asking her out, and I wanna know if she like, you know, likes me or not."
Oh. No. Not on his life. Not in a million years. Not while I'm here. Not. Happening.
Before I can say anything though, my replacement walks in, and I am out the door in about 10 seconds. I didn't want to do something to Will I'd regret.
Does he not remember that she and I together? He was still alive when we kissed for the first time in front of her friends, and according to the simulation, he supposed to like Christina. Maybe he had a different simulation. God. I don't know. All I knew is that he was NOT about to take Tris away from me. She's the best thing that ever happened to me and I'm not just going to give her up. I walk swiftly to the cafeteria, both anticipating and dreading seeing Tris.
Should I tell her? Should I just say that 'someone told me he has a thing for you?' What should I say? Should I say anything?
I was still mulling over this when I reach the cafeteria. Tris is in line with Christina, and when she sees me, she points towards a table that consists of Uriah, Lynn, and Marlene. I nod my head and get in line.
About 15 minutes later I'm sitting with Tris, Christina, Uriah, Lynn, Marlene, Zeke, and Shauna. I'm sitting in between Zeke and Tris, with Shauna next to Zeke, an empty chair besides Tris, and the other four are across from us.
We all grabbed pizza and ate it in under 10 minutes, and are now just talking. I'm in the process of stealing bits of Tris's cake without her noticing, when Will walks in.
I glare at him while he gets in line, and feel white hot jealousy course through me. Even though I know really shouldn't be jealous. Tris is mine, and she wouldn't cheat. I know she wouldn't. This entire thing is all on Will.
But if I felt pure jealousy when he was in line, I felt absolute fury when he sat down in the seat next to Tris.
"Hey, guys." He says to the table.
"Hey, Tris." He says to her. Which is not acceptable.
I slide an arm around her waist and pull her closer to me, hoping he'll get the message.
But with my luck, he doesn't.
The rest of the table goes back to their conversation about which faction would win in a race, and Tris and Will start their own little conversation. I act like I'm paying attention to the race conversation, but I'm on high alert, listening to Will and Tris's conversation.
Tris: "Where have you been? Your usually not late to anything with food." Here she pokes his stomach.
Will: Grabs her hand and sets it on the table, but keeps his hand on top of hers. I'm about to say something when she slips her hand out from under his. "Usually. I was working out and lost track of time."
Tris: "Oh, you work out?"
Will: "Not really. I'm trying to get into the habit."
Tris: Laughs. "At least your honest."
Will: "Always." And he winks at her. Which is another not acceptable thing. At least she didn't blush like she did with me. Just rolls her eyes a bit.
Will: "So I was wondering if you wanted to go grab dinner tomorrow night?"
Tris: "Yeah. That'd be great. What time?"
Did she seriously just say yes to this Erudite jack-ass?
Will: "Ahh around 6?"
Tris: "Yeah that works."
Will: "Great. I'll see you then, but I gotta go to work now."
Tris: "Alright. See you tomorrow."
I can't believe it. My girlfriend has a date with Will.

Awwe poor Four. What's he gonna do? Haha I'll let you wonder. Anyway, so I decide to call off the voting on 'Fluff or Smut?' Because I think I'm going to end this book with a smut scene, and I want it to be Tris's 'first time' so yea. And for those who are confused, I'm gonna do a fluff scene. Just to clarify. Oh and don't worry I'm not ending it anytime soon. So yea. Again :P k bye!
