Android : android - contact picker in fragment

I have a viewpager/sliding tabs. I want to be able to get 4 contacts from the address book that is already on the phone and save them in the app for later use. I have the code to do contact picker with an activity but my contact page is a fragment and I have yet to get it to work.

Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

code for contact fragment

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v4.app.Fragment;
import android.view.LayoutInflater;
import android.view.View;
import android.view.ViewGroup;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class MainMenu_Contacts extends Fragment {
View rootView;
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,     Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.activity_main_menu__contacts,     container, false);
    TextView text = (TextView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.text_message);
    text.setText("Contacts");
    return rootView;
}
    }

xml for contact

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent">

<TextView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:text="New Text"
    android:id="@+id/text_message"
    />
</LinearLayout>
