IT WAS ALWAYS YOU
Chapter One: Just Another Day

Boston, 2001

I thought about my so called 'perfect' girlfriend; Shelby Cummings. The perfect society wife anyone would want at an early age. It was definitely not the life that I desired to live for the rest of my life.

My parents had traded Hartford Society for the Boston Elites; even more snobby and competitive that my home town had been.

I knew that I didn't want to have a long engagement with the perfect cheerleader girlfriend, and graduate in the honour role of my class, maybe even become dux if I pushed myself even harder [okay that bit I DID want to do]. Enter Harvard University and eventually become a married lawyer at the tender age of twenty-something.

NO that life was not the one I desired. Well the part where I will be married to the cheerleader/ born to be a society wife bit anyway.

I didn't care anymore if my father and mother threw a fit that I had ruined the 'perfect take out oven' in creating little tiny perfect grandchildren for them.

No. To be honest, I still had the image of beautiful brown hair and even more gorgeous blue eyes that I had burned into my skull, the moment I had seen her for the last time at the Shakespeare play night.

The night that had change me into a more different person than the one I already didn't want to be. The one that I had become after I had left military school, I had become the perfect and obedient son; student; host; and society brat around.

A soulless robot; is what I called myself now, and I hated that robot with a passion.

I sighed as I slowly walked down the grand stair case and towards the family garage to retrieve my Ashton Martin V12 Zagato; a present I had been given for being the perfect seventeen year old on my birthday.

I sighed again as I quietly sat in my dream car, putting on my favourite mix cd that Rory had given me all those years ago.

Yes, I had kept it; it made me feel closer to her, than I had ever hoped I would be again. I sighed as I turned the ignition on, pressing the garage remote button, waiting patiently for it to open, before slowly backing down the long ass drive way.

I arrived at my best friend's house; arriving at seven thirty on the dot. I beeped my horn two times, and waited patiently for him to open his front door and make the ten steps that would have him walking towards my car. I had expertly changed the CD before he had even opened the car door, and popping in any mix CD I had touched.

"Hey Tris" my brown haired best friend greeted me as he sat beside me in the passenger seat.

"Hey Ry" I greeted him back with a small smile, and drove towards our other best friend's house.

"You going to Maxie's party tonight?" he asked me excitedly, I raised an eye brow in his direction with amusement.

"Not sure yet" I said non-committal, as we arrived at Dave's house. I beeped two times, and we both pretended to be playing the drums as he walked down his steps and Ry steps out of the car, and slides the front seat forward to let Dave sit at the back.

"Hey guys" he greeted us as Ry closes the car door.

"Hey Dave" we both say in unison and head towards our school, having only ten minutes left till the warning bell rang for us to attend homeroom.

"You going to Maxie's party tonight?" Dave asks the both of us, and I smirk because Ry had just asked me that question not more than ten minutes prior.

"I'm going, but apparently, Du Grey here isn't sure of his attendance yet" Ry says in the best voice he could mimic me as. I snort at them, and they grin back at me, and we all crack up laughing because it was just not right.

"You serz Tris?" he looks at me curiously, already knowing that Shelby would be twisting my arm, or more like it; annoying me all day until just before the party to come with them.

I sighed; my countless sigh, as we arrived at the school parking lot. Already, Shelby has seen us, and was making her way towards us, a big smile on her face.

She waited patiently as we got out of the car and was met by her body being pushed into mine for a hug and a kiss. Like my soulless robot instructed for me to do; I leaned down and gave her a peck on her cheek. Not exactly where she wanted it, but a kiss she accepted graciously none the less.

My best friends eyed me carefully, wondering why I hadn't kissed her on the lips even for but a second. I shrugged my shoulders and my soulless robot put a careless arm around her and follow everyone towards the school entry way.

Homeroom was boring as always; thirty minutes of total F.U.N. Which consisted of thirty names being called out in alphabetical order from D till G, and then having 'quite' time; while we had the chance to either read, get an assignment or homework done, or had a power nap. Since I had the best sleep in a long time last night, and I was very up to date with my assignments and homework, I chose to read my new book.

I knew thought entered my mind: maybe today would be the best day ever?

Only time would tell if THAT was going to-j* happen. I prayed that I will, though I am not religious, and definitely wasn't raised that way; I had faith in something, but I just didn't know what it was yet.

Wow? My thoughts were kinds weird this morning. I thought to myself in amusement.

The bell for first period finally rang, and we were dismissed to our respected classes. I was relieved to finally be getting out of there, and filling my mind with something other than my mindless thoughts.

Wow! cynical much? Something was definitely up with me! I sighed again and walked to my next class.

"Hey babe" I heard my girlfriend greeted me softly, tilting her head up for the kiss I hadn't landed this morning in the right place. I knew she wouldn't stop offering her mouth till she got that kiss.

I leant down and kissed her cheek softly, whispering the same greeting into her ear huskily. That would satisfy her for now right?

"See you at break Shel" she smiled at me and I could feel her eyes still on me, as I kept walking towards my first class.

One thirty minutes of history class with Mister Jonathan Majors; always made it a great start to classes. He always kept classes exciting and left me wanting to learn more. I loved all the little pieces of things he would teach us and make us think about, and the home work was just a pleasure to research for. The assessments I passed with flying colours, and had always been vied for as a group leader, which I breathed in with delight.

I groaned softly as the bell rang for our twenty minute break.

Shelby would want to spend those twenty minutes with me, and I really didn't feel like it at the moment. I took my time, making sure the minutes ticked away with every single thing that I did.

"Trist, you missed seeing the hottest girl ever in homeroom" Dave told me excitedly into my ear. I groaned loudly as I didn't want to be hearing about more girls, when I wished I wasn't stuck to the one I had now.

I definitely had to remedy the situation before the days end.

"She has the most beautiful blue orbs I have ever seen"

Did Dave just say orbs? He's definitely been playing Devil's May Cry again I bet!

"Yeah I bet" I drawled dryly at him, bored of the topic already, I decided that walking slowly to my locker would kill some time and took my history text books out of my back pack and pushed them into my locker.

He continued to rabbit on about her as we walked into math class together. I groaned again as I knew this conversation was going to go on all day long.
