Divergent High

As I walk in the school building on my third day, I wonder what will happen. Will Tobias talk to me? Will Marlene, Uriah, or Zeke?

I see Christina by her locker and Will, a senior, is standing there talking to her. When one of his friends distracts him, Christina winks at me and gives me a thumbs up.

I laugh without being able to control it. Tobias is also at his locker. I start feeling nervous, like I always do.

I open my locker and start grabbing the books I'll need, then out of the corner of my eye, I see Tobias looking at me. Does he like me too?

Then Uriah walks up and is waving his hand in Tobias's face. Uriah walks over to me and says, "Hey Tris, you wanna come with me, Tobias, Marlene, and Zeke to a party tonight?"

"Sure. Can I bring Christina?"

"Yeah," he says, "And it's at The Pit." The Pit's a restaurant. They usually have parties there.

"Alright. I'll tell Christina. See you guys there."

"Okay."

I walk to my first class, math, where Tobias already sits in his seat. On the first day Max told us we would stay in the seats we sat in so that means I'm always going to be distracted.

A few seconds later, Christina walks in.

"Oh my God! I have to tell you something!" says Christina.

"What."

"Will asked me out! He invited me to come to a party with him at The Pit!"

"Oh yeah, Uriah invited me to come with him and a couple others. I was gonna ask you if you wanted to come."

"Well then I guess it works out." She says.

After the last bell rings, I ride home, and start getting ready for the party.

I hear my phone buzzing, so I go and answer it.

"Hey." Says Christina's muffled voice.

"Hi. Are you getting ready for the party to?"

"Yeah. Just thought I should call and ask which dress I should wear." She asks.

"The blue one." I reply.

"Mmk. See you there."

"Okay. Bye."

I quickly take a shower and dry my hair. Now all that's left is to pick out an outfit. God this is going to take long.

I pick out a black dress with sequins that goes to my knees, a pair of cute black shoes I got yesterday with Christina, and let my hair loose.

It always looks better that way.

I apply some eyeliner, and head out.

Once I enter The Pit I see tons of people and hear loud music.

Christina walks up to me and says, "Hey!" she has to scream because of the loud music playing.

"Hi!" I shout back.

"There's so many people here! Where do you think everyone is!"

"Dunno." I say so quiet she can't even hear me.

"Wait, there's Uriah. I'm gonna go talk to him for a second."

"Okay."

I sit at a table with Uriah, Marlene, Zeke, Tobias, Christina, and Will. Were all talking, and laughing. Tobias is sitting next to me.

Al, I think he's one grade above me, sits down in the empty chair next to me. He looks at me and says, "Hey Tris."

"Hey." I say.

I'm not sure why he's sitting here.

"Want to dance?" he asks me.

Tobias glares at him, almost jealously.

Could he be jealous?

I don't want to be rude, so I say, "Sure."

I get up and so does he and we start dancing.

The whole time, I'm pretty sure Tobias is staring at me and Al.
