"Okay, class! We have a new student with us today!" Mrs. Reyes, the music teacher, says. "Can you tell us a little bit about yourself? Stand up so that everyone can see you!" She smiles at me as I slowly stand up. I look around all the students that are looking at me. I blush at the attention and take a deep breath before I start.
"My name is Tris Prior" I begin. "I moved here to Chicago some weeks ago because of my dad's job. Um...I sing, play the guitar and the piano" I sit down again and look down at my lap to hide my blush.
"Wonderful!" Mrs. Reyes claps her hands and laughs a light laugh. "Would you like to sing something for us?" she asks and smiles at me.
I look to my left where Christina sits and she smiles at meencouragingly. Then I look to my right side and I'm met by Four's dark blue eyes. He doesn't smile or say anything but I see something in his eyes. He thinks that I will do it and I don't want to dissapiont him for some reason.
I look back at Mrs. Reyes and nod slowly before I make my way to the front of the class.
I sit down on the chair infront of the piano and then my fingers starts to dance on the keys. I take a deep breath before I start to sing.
I can almost see it
The dream I'm dreaming
But, there's a voice inside my head saying
"You'll never reach it"
Every step I'm taking
Every move I'm make feel lost with no directions
My faith is shaiking
But I gotta keep trying
Gotta keep my head held high
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb
The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down, but
No I'm not breaking
I may not know it
But these are thoese moments that
I'm gonna remember most, yeah
Just gotta keep going
And I, I got to be strong
Just keep pushing on
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb
I finish halfway through the song so that I don't need to have all the attention on me anymore.
Around me I hear claps and cheers and I slowly breath out as I make my way back to my chair.
"That was really good, Tris!" Christina says, still clapping her hands.
"Thanks" I say and smile. Someone claps my back and I realize it's Uriah and Marlene behind me.
"Nice job, Tris!" Uriah says and I smile back to him before I turn my attention back to Mrs. Reyes,
"That was really beautiful" someone on my right side says and it takes me some time to realize it's Four.
I turn to look at him and see that he is already looking at me. That's the first thing I have ever heard him say and I can now hear that he has a deep voice.
"Thank you" I say and blush because he is still looking into my eyes and because I'm still looking into his.
"Thank you, Tris, for that wonderful performance!" Mrs. Reyes says and makes me come back to the classroom. "So the following four to five weeks you will practice to a concert that the school will have. You can choose if you want to sing solo or in small groups!" As soon as she finishes the whole class erupts in talking and I just sit there a little bit confused.
Someone taps my shoulder and I see it's Four.
"I thought that you maybe, uhm, you know, work with me?" he asks and a smallblush creeps to his face. I'm a little surprised that he asked me but I smile a little at his embarrassment. It's kind of cute.
"Sure" I say and he looks into my eyes with a smile on his lips.
"Good" he says and relaxes a little bit. But the blush is still there. "So what should we sing then?" he asks me.
"I don't know..." I begin to go throgh some songs in my head and when one suddenly pops up. "Can you rap?" I ask him.
He looks a little bit confused but nods anyways.
"Good, so I thoght that we could maybe sing ´the Monster´ with Eminem?" I really love that song and to my happines he smiles and nods.
"That sounds awesome!" he says and I laugh at his cuteness. Did I really just think that?
The bell rings and tells us that the school day is over.
"I'll see you tomorrow, right?" Four asks as he stands up. I nod for answer and he smiles at me.
"See you then" And with that he walks out of the classroom leaving me there thinking of a dark blue colour.
