Tris P.O.V.
Math was pretty much uneventful. Then I go to music class and see Christina, Marlene, and Shauna with four boys one of them being Four. The girls wave me over. "Okay so this is Tris Prior. Caleb's sister. Tris, this is Zeke, Uriah, Will, and Four." I give them a small smile. Immediately I knew that Zeke and Uriah are brothers. Will is staring at Christina intently and Marlene is ruffling Uriah's hair. Then, Four walks up to me and smiles. "So I was wondering if-" He's cut of by someone walking through the door.
My brother.
He fistbumps one of his football friends and comes toward me. Oh my god. Oh my god. He's going to hurt me. He comes over and gives me a hug making sure he puts pressure on my back. I let out an involuntary whimper of pain. He lets go and smirks at me. He walks toward his friend and sits with him. "Hey. Do you need to go to the nurse? You look as if you've seen a ghost." Uriah says. I shake my head and sit in between Four and Christina. Tori Wu, our teacher, comes in.
"Okay so I need a volunteer to come here and sing or play an instrument." When none of us answer, her eyes set on me. She beckons me up to the front to the classroom. Seeing there's no way out of this, I walk to the front and introduce myself. "I'm Tris and I'll be singing a song I wrote." I take a deep breath and walk up to the piano.
Skyscraper
Skies are crying, I am watching
Catching tear drops in my hands
Only silence as it's ending
Like we never had a chance
Do you have to make me feel like
There's nothing left of me?
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper
As the smoke clears, I awaken
And untangle you from me
Would it make you feel better
To watch me while I bleed?
All my windows still are broken
But I'm standing on my feet
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper
Go run, run, run
I'm gonna stay right here,
Watch you disappear
Yeah, oh
Go run, run, run
Yeah, it's a long way down
But I am closer to the clouds up here
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Oh Oh
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper
(Like a skyscraper)
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper
One single tear escaped my eyes. This was for me and to tell my brother what a monster he is. Everyone has looks of shock on their faces. Well everyone but Caleb. He's just picking at his cuticles. When I get back to my seat, everyone is applauding me. I just blush and look down. The rest of the period I find amusement in watching Zeke stuffing a piece of paper in a sleeping Uriah's nose. Christina drags me out of the class with the rest of the gang and yanks on my wrist. I cry out. Everyone stops.
"Tris! What's wrong?" says Shauna
"It's nothing." Marlene grabs my wrist.
"Stop! Let go!" I don't want them see my scars from beatings or sessions with my knife. I yank my wrist back. They look at me in shock. "Well if you all have a free period then lets go!" I say changing the subject. They nod and we head out to the football field. My cell dings and I check it. Caleb
Caleb: You took a risk singing that song. You're going to pay for it.
I start to have the urge to throw up. I'm so dead. Four starts to notice and walks over. He tries to take my phone to check what was on it but I twist so he can't get it.
"Didn't know Dauntless were nosy." I state. He shrugs.
"um… Do you think you could drive me to your house? My bro- I mean Caleb drove me to school." I refuse to call Caleb my brother. He's not as far as I'm concerned. Four nods and we go to lunch.
On the way back to the school, Caleb shows up beside me. He smiles at everyone and they return it. I go stiff. He beckons for me to follow. I go waving reluctantly at my friends. Caleb drags me by my collar to behind the school. He immediately throws a kick to my side. I fall over and he takes the opportunity to step on my wrist. I scream then everything goes black.
