Divergent

Chapter Two

We start training. We don't really touch each other, just practice the stance and general motion of it all.

"That's enough of that! Everyone get to a punching bag and start working!" Four shouts. I was working with Chris so we walk away to the punching bags but still end up next to each other. After about 15 minutes my knuckles are hurting. I bring my hands from the punching bag to my chest. They're red and split. I ignore it and keep working. Out of the corner of my eye I can see Four standing to my right. I eye him. Finally it starts to feel awkward so I stop and look at him. He grins. Yup. I was right. He's gorgeous.

"You should use your whole body but keep tension here," He says. And the next thing I know his hands are on my stomach. I swallow. He looks away and slides his hand off. Christina is eyeing me. I glance down.

"Keep working. You're weak so you'll need time," He says harshly.

"Well. Good to know," I reply. He grins then walks away. I turn back to the bag and punch. My knuckles sting but I push through it.

Hey! Hope you're all enjoying it so far!😘
