Chapter 2
Tris POV
The girl pushes me out of the office, squealing.
"Omg, this is gonna be great! I'm Christina by the way. And it looks like we have the same schedule so I can help you to all your classes!" Christina said. Well, more like shrieked. I have already gathered that she is an overeager person.
"Um..right. So I'm Tris."
"I love your name! Here, let me show you to your locker." Christina said rushing off in one direction.
She wasn't bad. I think we could become friends. I started following her when I ran into someone and fell on my ass. Oh great...
"I'm so sorry, I wasn't looking where I was going." A deep voice apologized.
"No, I'm sorry, I-" I started to reply when I looked up and saw the person I ran into. It was the guy by the flagpole I saw earlier, with the striking blue eyes. He was holding out a hand for me to take. I grabbed his hand, and instantly a jolt of energy raced through me. He helped me to a standing position and I dusted myself off.
"Thanks." I said.
"No problem. I'm Four, by the way. I haven't seen you around here are you new?" Four asked me.
"Yeah, I'm Tris. I'm actually in the middle of a tour and-" I was saying until Christina ran up to us and jumped on Four's back. For some reason, a weird feeling went through me when she did. Was I...jealous?
"Four! I see you've met our new student, Tris." Christina said.
"Yeah, I have. And would you get off me? You're choking me." He said motioning to her arms around his neck.
"Oh, yeah. Sorry bout that." she said as she jumped down.
"Ugh, finally." Foure said, rubbing his neck, smiling. He pulled her into a hug. "I missed you over the summer too, but that's no reason to try and kill me."
"Haha. Whatever you say, I know you love me. Come on, Tris, I'll show you how to open your locker." Christina sad as she pulled me towards the lockers, with Four following behind us.
"So...um, are you and Four...?" I let my voice trail off, hoping she'd get the point.
Her eyes widened at my question and she started giggling. Actually, she was full out laughing, and she was laughing so hard she apparently couldn't answer my question. She eventually did though when she caught her breath, occasionally letting out a giggle.
"Me...and...Four? DATING?" she exclaimed.
At that moment, Four had caught up to us and was glaring at Christina. "What did you tell her?"
"No, no, no. Whew. Omg, I think I might die right now." She caught her breath and started to talk. "Okay, so to answer your question, NO. Four and I aren't dating, never have been, never will be. We're just good friends."
"Although, Chris here had a crush on a certain someone in the 4th grade." Four said, smirking.
"Oh, shut up. I was young and naive and obviously my brain wasn't fully developed." She retorted. Christina turned to me. "Four and I have been friends since I was in kindergarten and he was in 1st...for the second time."
"Would you stop telling people that? I was not held back."
"Whatever. Let's get to class. You have homeroom with Matt, right?" she asked Four. "The teachers here like to be called by the first names." she said to me.
"Yeah, let's go." Four said. And the three of us walked to the classroom together.
Christina and Four walked over to a group in the back of the room, but the teacher stopped me.
"You're our new student, right?" Matt said.
"Yeah, Beatrice Prior. I prefer Tris, though." I replied.
"Alright everyone settle down!" Matt called out to the class and they hurried to find their seats. "We have a new student this year. Class, this is Tris Prior. Tris, why don't you tell us about yourself?"
I turned to the class and started. "Um, I'm Tris. I just moved here over the summer from California with my parents and brother. I like to read and dance and...yeah."
"Okay! So Tris there's an empty seat next to Four or Lauren, you can take your pick." He said, gesturing to each of them.
I looked to where he was pointing when he said Lauren. When I looked over at her she gave me a death glare. I have no idea what that was about, but I just ignored her and went over to where Four was sitting with Christina and a few other people. Four motioned to the desk beside him, so I gave him a small smile and sat down.
"Alright class! It's the first day, so you can use these 15 minutes to talk among yourselves. I'll be at my desk if you need anything." With that, Matt went over to his desk and started reading a book. Christina turned to me.
"So, Tris. These are our friends Marlene, Uriah, and Zeke. Zeke and Uriah are brothers." She said pointing to each one in turn.
I recognized them as the people by the flagpole. The younger brother was Uriah and the older one was Zeke. The blonde was Marlene.
"Hi! It's nice to know there's another blonde in the group." Marlene said, motioning to our hair. We all laughed at that.
I saw an open sketchbook on a desk where the Dauntless symbol was drawn, really well actually.
"Whoa! Who drew this? Its incredible!" I said holding up the sketchbook.
"Um, that's mine." Four spoke up. "I draw a little."
"A little? You're really talented! You're amazing!" I said, without thinking. Four gave me a little half smile. "I meant, at drawing. Cause of the...yeah."
Christina nudged me a little and giggled. I looked around at my new friends and could already tell this was going to be an interesting school year.
