Tris POV

*SKIP TO THE SCORING FOR THE DAY*

Today has been tough for both instructor and initiate. Tanya won her fight against Ethan, Adam won his against Carrie and Brianna won against Fran. Which, to be honest, was quite predictable. Apart from the fact that Adam and Carrie are so equal, it could have gone either way.

After the fights, we were free for lunch. And after lunch, back to work. Tobias and I have agreed that we will alternate on which stations we coach at. Today, I worked at the shooting and combat stations whilst Tobias monitored the arena and knife stations. Like I said, we switch each day seeing as they get more out of it with 2 different views on their skills than just 1.

So today Fran, Alias and Jackie are below the line so it is pretty certain that, if they don't get their act together soon, Jackie and Fran will be out.

Tobias and I walk hand in hand to the canteen and get the usual, sit at our table and exchange gossip. After we finish our food, I grab Tobias' hand and drag him to my apartment. He looks thoroughly confused and slightly worried, an expression that is rarely present on his gorgeous face. I have nothing special planned, I just haven't had enough time with him of late.

I sit him down on the couch and we press our foreheads together, looking down at our joined hands, smiling. Tobias closes the gap, bringing us both into a tight embrace, safe in each other's arms. I close the distance between us even more so that our lips touch and we kiss, gently at first, then full of love and passion. He licks my bottom lip, begging for an entry.

But I am scared. I don't want to go too fast or get too far so I don't let him in. Although I desperately want to. His touch still ignites the flame inside me, tingling through my bones, spreading through my veins, begging me to go further let him in. And that's why I'm divergent: because I don't let him in.

I glance at my watch and it reads 10:54. Once again, I drag Tobias away but this time to the chasm. The rushing water rages and spits a fine spray of salty water at us. I want to soar over it, occasionally skimming the surface and plunge into it's mysterious depths.

I now lead Tobias up and out of the chasm, to the great glass roof displaying the diamond-like stars. I so badly want to be up there and amongst the unknown, the other planets and stars so bright, higher than the clouds and the birds and the sun and the moon. I sigh. The world is so beautiful and I am here to share it with the one I love most in the world.

Nothing could be more perfect than this.

We have not spoken the whole time but it just seems right. No one can match the beauty of nature - it is breathtaking and leaves you speechless. I lead the way back to my appartment, powered by a flame burning so strong. When we reach my door, Tobias turns to leave but I grab his arm and twist him round. I run my hand through his hair and his hands find my waist.

And we kiss, the moonlight illuminating our faces and our figures blended as one. He pulls away and whispers, "thank you" in my ear and I whisper, "I love you Tobias Eaton. More than the moon and the stars and the beauty of the whole world. And nothing will ever change that.

-----*Time lapse to end of stage 1 because otherwise this story will take forever and will be all the same*-----

Fran POV

My hands are drenched in sweat and are trembling like never before.

I was wrong to choose dauntless. I mean I knew I never stood a chance and that I belong in Candor with my little sister, Georgiana. She meant and still means everything to me and she was only 8 when I left. And now I will never see her again - I will become a factionless beggar with nothing happy in their lives, being a life not worth living.

Or was I right? My aptitude test told me neither - I was both Dauntless and Candor. I am divergent. Maybe the will never find me in the factionless, maybe I will be left alone in a life of peace. Because I feel an uprising coming - a stirring in the peace. And I know that the divergent are not safe.

Reluctantly, I pull my eyes up to the scoreboard, awaiting my long foretold fate.  I look at the names below the red line. Jackie, Caitly, Alias. But no Fran! Oh my goodness does that mean I am through? Through to the next stage? I let out a deeo sigh and tears of relief and happiness flood to my eyes, spilling down my cheeks and onto my neck. I HAVE DONE IT.

Yes I may be safer factionless. But I can prove that's not where I belong.
