CHAPTER SEVEN - TRIS

I awoke to shuffling in the dormitory. It's been a week since our capture the flag win, and a week since all these mysteries unraveled. I needed answers.

My eyes slowly flutter open readjusting to the light. There is movement on the other side of the room, I assume it's Molly or Peter. I roll over onto my stomach and burry my head into my pillow trying to hide the fact on what today is. Visiting Day.

The door on the other side of the room creeks open and I crain my neck to see who it is. Will enters the room holding two muffins in each hand, and kicks the door shit with his left foot. I grin and prop myself up onto my elbows extending a hand towards him.

I try to picture him in blue sometimes but I just a can't, I remember meeting him on the day of the choosing ceremony but the image is just so out of place. His hair that ruffles in a perfect way, and his black clothes that look perfect on him, he is handsome. I pinch my lips into a small smile as he hands me the muffin.

I take a bite of and thank him. He nods and sits down on my bed. I roll back onto my butt and look at him as we both eat in silence. He catches my eye and smirks.

"What are you starring at stiff?" He asks as he takes his last mouthful. I pry my eyes away from him and look at my hands. I've chewed my nails to their beds. Some mornings I would wake with blood on my fingers from chewing them while I'm asleep.

"I know that there is something going on between you and Christina," his cheeks turn a flush colour and this time he breaks the eye contact. A giggle rises in my throats and I just let it out. "You like her," I teased, "you like her!" I poked him in the arm and leaned back. I look at him in awe as I ate the rest of my muffin.

He shook his head and stood up, "don't tell her." He said. I nodded and climbed out of bed myself. As he left the room I pull out a change of clothes and went to the bathroom.

I thought about showering but I just decided to later. I quickly dressed and threw my hair up into a messy ponytail. I pulled out my baby hairs and sighed. I walked to my bed and pulled on a fresh pair of socks and tied the laces on my shoes. I picked up my jacket and slipped each oth my arms through it, hulling it over my shoulders.

I walked out of dormitory and were ever my feet take me.

......

I found myself on my way to with pit without even thinking. Once I enter I see crowds of transfers that stand alone and Dauntless borns and a few other transfers that stand with their families. The Dauntless borns are supposed to stay away from their families throughout initiation, although sometimes I catch Zeke and Uriah talking.

Christina stands with her sister and her mother, Will stands with his sister and I stand alone.

"Hey Tris!" Christina gestures for me to come over to her, without even thinking I find myself by her side. "Tris, this is my little sister Rose, and this is my mother." I smile and greet them. We make small talk for a few minutes about the weather (which is pointless because we live a cave under ground), and how we are ranked in initiation.

Four walks past and waves at me, I give him a small smile and continue on talking with Christina and her family. Not long after Will is by my side introducing his sister Cara to the rest of us. Cara is dressed in blue from head to toe, she has brown hair and looks exactly like Will. She is pretty and if she didn't wear the fake glasses, she'd be even prettier.
