Hi everyone, I can post the second chapter because I stole my cousins 3G. Thanks for all the reviews, they inspire me to post more. Hope you enjoy this chapter.
Ever so slowly the school begins to fill up with students. Some of the students are tall and muscly year twelves, whilst others are short and scrawny year sevens. Though I was about to start year ten I probably fitted into the short and scrawny category. I was slim and short with no curves or softness to my body. I had sharp features that I thought made me look like a walking and talking scarecrow, but Christina had already complimented me on my intriguing features, which surprised me a lot. Christina on the other hand was average size with a very pretty face. She obviously had a great sense of fashion judging from what she was wearing and was great with makeup. I was honestly jealous of all the girls I had seen so far. They all had nice round body frames and pretty facial features, nothing at all like me. I sighed.
"What's up?" Christina asks as we enter the hallway.
"Do you think I'll fit in here, all the other girls are so, pretty compared to me." I say embarrassed.
Christina scowls and shakes her head.
"Of course you won't fit in." She starts.
I frown.
"All of the girls around here wear skirts that are too short and flirt with every boy within their reach, I wouldn't really want to fit in with them." She finishes, glancing at me for confirmation.
"Alright." I say.
We continue to walk through the busy hallways for a bit before we reach the year ten locker bay.
"What's your locker number?" Christina asks me.
I quickly fumble with my first day package before grabbing out my locker number and code.
"Locker 54." I say.
"You are over there." She says pointing towards a row of lockers. "I'm locker 72 so I guess I'll meet you in our fist class." Christina says before walking off.
I wave goodbye and begin to make my way towards my apparent locker.
"Locker 49,50,51,52,53 and 54." I say out loud as I find my locker.
I quickly studied my locker code before imputing it into my lock. I realised that after a few attempts of trying to open my locker it was jammed. Scowling I used all my strength to open the locker's door.
"Ouch!" I hear someone yell out from the other side of the locker.
I winced, knowing that I was probably the one that hit the person on the other side.
"I'm so sorry." I say whilst closing my locker to see the person I hit.
Suddenly I found myself looking into a pair of ocean blue eyes.
"Uh, um, it's alright. It didn't hurt much anyway." A guy said rubbing the back of his neck nervously.
The guy standing before me was quite tall and had very well defined muscles that showed through his shirt. He had short black-brown hair and as I noticed earlier, deep blue eyes. 'I wonder what he doing in the year ten area, he looks like a year twelve.' I think to myself before noticing that we were staring at each other.
"I'm Tris." I blurt out, my words quite uncoordinated.
'Great first impression Beatrice.' I think to myself.
"I'm Four." He says whilst taking his hand off the back of his neck.
"Four, are you a year twelve?" I ask suddenly.
"Haha, no I am not. I'm only I'm year ten." He says with a nervous laugh.
I nod and open my locker once again.
"Sorry again for hitting you in the head with my locker." I say as I put some books in my locker.
"It's alright, I hit myself in the head with my locker door sometimes too." He says while opening the locker next to me.
'Locker buddies, I can deal with that.' I think to myself once I had gotten all my books out and put my bag in my locker.
I quickly close my locker and lock it shut.
"Um nice meeting you Four." I say with a wave as I walk off.
"Bye Tris." I hear him say.
I open my schedule and find out what my first class is. 'Science, my favourite.' I think to myself sarcastically as I walk down towards the science rooms. As I walk in the door I spot Christina at a table with another guy. The guy she was with had tanned skin and brown hair. He had a really white smile, dark eyes and a loud laugh. I make my way over towards them and set my books down.
"Oh hey Tris, this is Uriah." Christina says, gesturing towards the guy next to her.
"Hi Tris nice to meet you." The guy, Uriah, says, standing up to shake my hand.
"Nice to meet you too." I say smiling in return.
Our teacher, Mr Lyins as Christina told me, comes into the classroom as soon as the first bell had gone to begin our lesson. The class went by slowly with us all learning about the history of science. Christina seemed quite interested in the lesson while Uriah and I kept on getting distracted.
"Psssst, Tris." Uriah whispers, poking me in my side.
"Yes?" I whisper back.
He passes me a note and leans back in his chair, obviously interested to see what the note says. I open the note cautiously and my eyes scan the paper.
'Hey Tris,' It reads. 'There's a party at my friends house on Wednesday night. Just wondering would you like to attend? You can bring your friend. Uriah is the hosts brother. -Four.'
I smile and quickly flip the note over. I grab out my pen and begin writing a reply.
'Hey Four, of course I would like to come. It would be a good opportunity to get to know everyone. I didn't know you were in this class. -Tris.'
I scrunch up the note and pass it over to Uriah.
"Tell everyone to pass it back." I whisper.
Uriah nods and passes it down the rows of students. I scan the room full of students and finally see the back of Four's head. Smiling I grab a rubber and throw it at the back of his head. He turns around suddenly with a look of anger on his face.
"Four." I whisper, waving my hand slightly.
His eyes dart towards me and soften.
"Hey." He mouths.
I smile and look down at my textbook. Looking back at him I realise he has got the note. He reads it quickly and writes something down. I wait until Uriah passes another note back to me and I open it quickly.
'Cool, yeah obviously I'm in this class. Can I walk with you after class?' The note says.
I look up and see Four watching me and smile. Nodding I turn gaze back to the board. Class goes on for a bit more before the bell goes.
"Only three more classes left." Christina says as she gets up out if her seat.
I smile and gather my books up.
"Hey Chris, I'll meet you in the cafeteria for break in a sec, I promised Four I would speak to him." I say just as I was going to walk out the door.
"Oh my god, Four! He is the cutest guy in year ten!" Christina squeals, grabbing me by my arms.
"It's only Four." I say slowly.
Christina gasps.
"So is he the one who you were passing notes to?" She says with a sniffled laugh.
My cheeks suddenly heat up and I look away from Christina. She laughs and lets go of my arms.
"Have fun with Four." She says as she stalks out of the room, laughing the whole way.
I frown slightly before making my way towards the door. As I walk out the door I feel a hand grab my arm. 'Why is everybody grabbing my arms?' I think as the hand pulls me around.
"Four." I squeak out as I see the face of the person that grabbed me.
He laughs and lets go of my arm.
"You promised you would walk with me." He says pouting.
I smile and begin to walk ahead of him.
"Hurry up then slow poke." I call out to him as I walk ahead.
I hear him scramble up beside me and then slow his pace.
"So." He says.
"So." I reply looking up at him.
"You've got really pretty eyes." He says suddenly.
My cheeks heat up very quickly and I look away from him.
"They're alright." I say, still looking away.
He laughs and bumps his shoulder into mine. I smirk and look up at him.
"Getting a bit friendly there Four, we only met maybe two hours ago." I say smiling up at him.
"I guess it's because you're just so approachable." He says with a straight face.
We continue to walk slowly until we reach the locker bay. Trying to remember my code I put the numbers into the lock.
"Score!" I say out loud.
"What?" Four says loudly.
"Oh nothing." I say once I realised I had said 'score' out loud.
I open my locker and quickly thrust my books inside. Grabbing some money I shut my locker and begin to walk away.
"Tris wait up." I hear someone yell out.
I turn on my heels and see Four running towards me.
"Sorry Four, do you want to come to the cafeteria with me?" I ask feeling guilty.
"It's alright, I wanted you to meet Uriah's brother and my friend Zeke. He is the one hosting the party on Wednesday." Four replies once he caught up with me.
I nod and smile as we continue to walk towards the cafeteria, Four and I, together.
