<Eric pov>
All the initiate walk in to the training room, some limping, some tripping over them selves. The only two that hold them selves up is Loki and Ace. Ace has a nice bruise around her eye. Loki has a bruise on his jaw from Will. Who barely even tried, well thats how it looked. It seemed really sloppy. So Loki had no strategy.
When all the initiates file in i announce who fights who. The stronger ones go last so Ace and Loki are last. They will be fighting each other. Yesterday's fight when Ace broke Greg's hip was impressive. I felt pride swell in my chest.
I notice Greg is not here so i walk over to Four.
"Where is Greg," i ask.
"He broke his hip so he will be back in two days," he says.
I smile, Ace has one strong kick. The fights pass by in a blur. Rina was sent to the infirmary she lost yesterdays and todays fight. She will most likely be cut.
Finally Loki and Ace step up to the mat. Ace gets into her stance and so does Loki. When they start i notice Loki steps before he hits and i guess Ace notices it too cause she jabs him in the throat. He falls to one knee and Ace takes the opportunity to kick him, knocking him out cold. That was the shortest fight today. Four grabs Loki and takes him to the infirmary.
"Nice job," i say to Ace as she walks pass me.
"Thanks," she says.
"Everyone is free to go," i yell.
Ace is walking towards the punching bags and i follow her. Everyone left but her.
"What are you doing," i ask.
She jumps," um, practicing," she says.
I smirk and stand in front of her. Between her and the bag.
"Why don't you fight me then," i say.
She looks at me confused.
"You? Sure," she says.
"Yeah, im pretty sure you can not get me," i say.
"Don't be so sure," she says before walking over to that mat.
I take off my shoes and leave them to the side and she does the same. We get in our stance. She throws the first punch i grab her hand.

<Ace pov>
How the hell did he just do that?

My hand is covered by his. I see a gleam in his eye. Before i can take another swing he takes my legs from under me and i am on my back. I get back up quickly and try to kick his side. He grabs my leg and flips me again. I end up on the floor once more. I get up again and get in my stance. This time i wait for him to swing, and when he does i try to swipe his legs from under him. Except i miss because he jumps up. He smirks and i get up again and try to kick his side again. I hit his side but it has no effect on him. It hurts my leg. He grabs my leg and flips me again. This time when i get up i charge at him.

I guess he did not expect that cause he falls to the floor and i am on top of him. My legs on both sides of him. I try to hit his face but he grabs my hands and flips me on my back so he is on top. He stares down at me. His eyes soft with the beautiful light colors i saw when we were walking down the stairs.
His smell engulfs me, his face is just centimeters away from my face. His breath hits my face, before i can stop him, his lips touch mine. He kisses me softly, i find myself returning the kiss instead of trying to push him off.
When we break a part are breaths are heavy he gets off of me.
"Shit, sorry," he says.
"For what," i ask.
"I Should not have kissed you. Why would you want to kiss me," he says.
"I did not reject you did i," a smile crawling its way on my lips.
He looks at me confused, then he smiles and walks over to me. His hand go on my cheeks and he kisses me again. This time when we pull a part he keeps his face close to mine.
He helps me up, i can feel a smile on my face. I have no clue what emotion i am feeling but i like it.
"Ace," he says.
Stopping at the door before exiting the training room. He rubs the back of his neck. He is thinking i can tell.
"I won't tell anyone what happened," i say.
He looks at me and smiles.
"Ace, i... I... Can i talk to you later," he asks.
"Sure," i say.
"Do you remember where my apartment is," he asks.
I nod and we walk to the mess hall. When we get close he stops and lets me walk in first. Four is sitting at the far end so i join him. After i sit down i notice Eric come in.
"Where were you," he asks.
"Training," i say.
He nods and starts eating his food again. After we are done eating i head over to Eric's apartment. I knock on the door and he opens it. I notice that he is shirtless and his hair is wet.
He lets me come in while he heads to his bed room. When he comes out he is wearing a shirt. I kind of wish he stayed shirtless. I laugh at my thought.
"Whats so funny," he says with an raised eyebrow.
"Nothing," i say rolling my eyes.
He then sits next to me. I have a weird feeling in my stomach. Like something is fluttering around. He sits closer to me so that his scent is all i smell.
"So um, about that kiss," he says.
Before he says anything else i just kiss him. I have no clue what came over me. But it felt so right. Eric is kissing me back hungrily. I slip my arms around his neck and he puts me on his lap so i can straddle him. His hands travel up my back into my hair.
He tugs my hairs and i lean back. He then trails kisses down my neck. I whimper, as his lips glide down my neck. He tugs my hair a little harder so he can have more access to my neck. Fire is spreading all over my body. Coursing through my veins. I never felt so alive. When he lets go of my hair his lips come back on to mine.
I bit his lower lip and he lets out a deep groan. I smile as i continue to kiss him.
Then all of a sudden i hear a knock at the door. Eric groans and gets up. I look at him and he looks towards the bedroom. So i quietly make my way there and hide.
"Hey, Max says we have a meeting tonight. He wanted me to remind you," the voice says.
It sounds like a female.
"Okay tell him i will be there," says Eric.
"Kay, you coming to my party next week," the voice asks.
"Maybe."
"Kay, see you later."
I hear the door close and i wait a few second before walking out the door.as soon as i step out the door i bump into something hard. I look up to see Eric. He picks me up and wraps my legs around his hips and walks over to the couch.
"Who was that," i ask.
"Lydia, a dauntless leader. Annoying little baby," he says.
"Oh," i know Lydia.
She was in a initiation class about four years before Eric came. She seemed pretty young, but i knew she was older then Eric.
Eric sits down on the couch and i sit in his lap.
"So what are we," i ask curiously.
"What do you want us to be," he says.
The truth is i have no clue. He can be more then a friend. But is he willing. I do not know if i can trust him just yet. I know Four and him hate each other, but come on. I always had this weird feeling around him. I felt safe and at peace.
"I don't know. I mean i want it to be more than a friendship," i say.
He smiles at the answer.
"Do you want to be my girlfriend then," he says with a smirk.
I put my face close to his so we are just centimeters apart.
"Maybe," i say and pull back.
He almost looks frustrated. I laugh and he laughs with me. We sit there for a little bit and i get off his lap and lean my head on his shoulder.
I guess i feel asleep cause when i wake up an arm is around my waist and im lying on my side. I know who's arm is around me because the tattoos and the smell that engulfs me. I let out a sigh. And i feel the body behind me move.
"You awake," i hear deep sleepy voice ask.
"Yeah," i say.
I check the time it is 7:00. I remember over hearing about Eric's meeting i wonder if he went yet or was it later.
"Eric whens your meeting," i ask.
"7:15. Why," he asks.
"Cause its 7:00."
"Shit," he says before he climbs over me.
I notice that he is shirtless again and i watch as he grabs his shirt.
"You like what you see," he says and flexes.
I laugh and nod.
"Well we better both get going. I will see you later okay," he says.
"Alrighty," i say.
I get up and walk out his apartment.
