Fourtris: A new beginning

by crar

Divergent from a different point of view :) Tobias and Tris' relationship in high school with a new twist. No factions as such like in the book but there are groups in the school. I also ignored the fact that Tobias and Tris are different ages in the books in this. Enjoy :)

TRIS'S POV

It all started when I was 5. I came out of my house one day to go down to the park opposite my house. As I walked out of the house i noticed the door to the house next to me opened as well, I saw a little boy who looked about 5 aswell come out of the house. While looking at him I noticed his dark, blue eyes, being so young and care-free I shouted out

"You have really pretty eyes!" and then ran down the steps of my house across the road and in to the park.

I ran all the way down to my favourite spot, the sandpit. I started making 'castles' with the sand and adding 'glitter' that was actually just dirt. Suddenly I felt someone tap me on the shoulder. I spun around to see who it was and it was the little boy from next door!

"Why did you say that I have really pretty eyes?" he said with an eyebrow raised.

"Because" I replied "You do!" and with that I was off and running again towards the playing ground.

I was almost and the playing ground when I felt someone tap me on the shoulder and at the same time they yelled

"Your it!"

This was the start of mine and Tobias' friendship. Everyday we would go down to the park and play games of chasey, climb the playing ground, build sandcastles and occasionally, if it was raining we would 'paint' with the mud.

On my birthday I came out of my house with a big grin on my face to find Tobias waiting at the gate.

"What are you so happy about?" he asked smiling.

"It's my birthday!" I yelled in reply.

With that he burst into singing happy birthday to me and I burst into a fit of giggles.

That day we went down to the park and played all of the games we enjoyed but came back earlier to go to my house to celebrate my birthday.

"Where's my little 6 year old?" I hear my say with her baby voice on as I walk in the door.

"I'm here mummy!" I shout "Can Tobias stay for cake?" I ask.

"Absolutely honey, i'll just ring his parents to tell them"

Tobias and I walked into the living room and sat down, my mum then brought us in 2 slices of cake for us and her a Tobias started to sing happy birthday.

Happy Birthday to you

Happy Birthday to you

Happy Birthday dear Trissy

Happy Birthday to you!

HipHip Hooray!

HipHip Hooray!

One day when I went to wait at Tobias' house like usual and he came out looking really sad. I asked him what was wrong and he told me that it would be the last time I would see him. I didn't understand what this meant so I just ran down to the park as I did everyday and we played like normal. When it was time to go back we said our goodbyes.

That night I dreamt of all the things we could do tomorrow.

The next day I came out of my house and I noticed something new. A big 'FOR SALE' was up in Tobias' front yard. I didn't believe it. Tobias' must be playing a joke on me i thought. I marched up to the front door and started knocking on the door calling for Tobias.

"Tobias! I know this is just a joke! You can't trick me!"

When he didn't answer I started to get frustrated.

"TOBIAS! COME ON! I KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE"

I started punching the door as hard as I could to get his attention. Maybe he is in the shower or maybe he is doing something else which means he can't hear me.

Suddenly I had a thought. Maybe he's not home? Maybe he is out somewhere doing something with his family? Yes. Yes, that must be it.

I decide that instead of going back home I would wait for him to come back.

I sat there for at least 2 hours. I started to think that he might not be coming back. Then, I remember what he told me yesterday

"This will be the last time I'll see you". All of a sudden it dawned on me, I understood what he meant when he said that yesterday, I wasn't going to see him again because he was moving.

I start sobbing, trying to hold back the tears that I know I never will be able to hold back. My body starts shaking as I start crying more and more, it starts raining but I don't care.

I had just lost my only friend back then, and it turns out that he would be my only friend I ever had up to now.

But now, I have made a promise to myself that it would change this year. My first day at my new high school.

I used to live in a small town 2 hours drive from here but then my Dad got a job offer here so we all moved. My Dad, my Mum, my brother Caleb and me that is. So here we are, in Chicago.
