So I'm new at this. This is my first fanfiction ever. This is Tris and Four in high school (I know original, right?). For a twist, neither of them are new kids. They have known each other for years. They just weren't really friends. Acquaintances if you will. I appreciate any reviews. Good or bad. Thanks for reading and enjoy! I own nothing. Veronica Roth does.
~Tris~
Ugh… school. Why do my parents insist on sending me to this torturous place? I'll never understand.
Sadly summer has come to an end. Today is my first day back. I drag myself out of bed and get dressed. I choose black pants and a black tank-top with black sneakers. Yes, I'm going for the ninja look.
My school has an unofficial way of classifying kids. Abnegation are all extremely selfless. They tend to wear gray because color is too self-indulgent. Amity are peaceful and always happy. It's kind of scary how happy they are. They wear red and yellow. Candor are brutally honest. They wear black and white. Why you ask? I have no clue. Erudite are the smartypants of the school. They usually have their nose in a book while solely wearing blue. Then there's Dauntless. That's me. We dress in all black and are the brave ones. And usually the rowdiest ones.
I run downstairs and grab a muffin. Mmm… muffins. My addiction isn't healthy.
My brother Caleb comes down stairs blinding me with his blueness. Yes, my brother is a nerd, and I am forced to ride to school with him. This year will be great…
We jump in his car and head to school. It's a short ride there, and we soon part ways acting like we don't know each other. Feeling the love, Caleb. Feeling the love.
I head to my locker finding my best friend Christina. AKA Chris.
"Tris!" she squeals.
"Ahh! It's too early to be that loud," I say rubbing my ears.
"You'll be fine."
"Sure, whatever you say Chris."
"So, I saw this really cute guy, and he smiled back at me. He has blonde hair and green eyes which I think is adorable." Yay, more squealing. "His name is Will."
"That's great, but I don't see why you need a guy to be happy."
"Tsk tsk. You see, boys are amazing and adorable."
"Yeah, okay."
Chris goes to the bathroom while I try to find my homeroom class. I look down at my schedule, and I don't see the guy in front of me. I bump into him and we both fall to the floor. Of course since we are in high school everybody laughs. This day just keeps on getting better and better.
"I'm soooo sorry. I was looking at my schedule and didn't see you." I tell this mystery man.
"No, you're fine. Let me help me with your books." He leans down to help me. I still haven't seen his face.
"Don't worry about it. I got it." I guess he doesn't hear me because he continues to help me.
We finally get up and look at each other. He smiles.
"Hey, Tris. I haven't seen you in ages."
"You either, Tobias."
"Well, we better get to class. What do you have homeroom?"
"Uhh," I look at my schedule, "science."
"Great, so do I."
We head to science catching up with each other. Has it really been that long? Tobias has changed quite a bit. He towers above me. Gosh I'm short. His smile could drive a girl crazy. Stop it Tris. This is Tobias. He's just another kid. Nothing unusual. But he is very handsome… Stop it. Think of the dorky kid with braces and glasses a few years ago. That was him. Not this attractive man. Ugh…
*PAGE BREAK*
Science, like all other classes, is boring. I find my eyes drifting over to Tobias. He catches my glance once and smiles. I could melt. Darn it. Stop it Tris. I mean it. You do not like him.
Ugh… why is school so boring. Lunch can't come soon enough.
*PAGE BREAK*
Tobias invites me to eat lunch with him and his friends. When I sit down I see Christina sitting next to who I assume is Will.
"Guys this is Tris." Tobias introduces me. They all nod. "Tris this is Zeke, Shauna, Uriah, Marlene, Will, Lynn, and you already know Christina."
Chris's smile is huge. How does her mouth not hurt?
"So Tris," I think Uriah is his name, "what's your story?"
How am I supposed to answer that?
"Excuse my brother. He likes to get to the point. I'm Zeke by the way. AKA the superior brother." Uriah glares back at him. We all laugh.
Lunch ends and soon after that so does school. Tobias walks me to my brother's car.
"It was good to get to talk to you again. It's truly been quite some time since we have. I'm glad you're back now." He smiles and then hugs me goodbye. He leaves on his motorcycle. Gosh, why did that hug feel amazing? I ponder this until Caleb arrives. I'm glad he didn't see that.
"So Beatrice, how was your day?"
"Pretty good." I smile. Maybe this year won't be terrible after all.
Remember I'm new. It will get better. The next chapter will probably be from Tobias's point of view. Review! I appreciate them good or bad! Thanks for reading. Until next time.
