Hello! It's so fun to write this!
JONATHAN POV:
Today has been like every other first day back to school. That girl, Jennifer, she looks exactly like my mom. It's creepy. I go to my usual table where I see Melissa, Katherine and Mark sitting. Katherine and Mark are our friends and they are dating but Melissa and I aren't that close to them. We are considered the popular group at school. But we aren't the bullies at school. I go over to them and sit down next to Mel. She gives me a kiss on the cheek.
"Should we invite the new girls to sit with us? They seem nice…" Melissa asks us. She's always so nice.
"I met one of them this morning, she looks like my mom did when she was 16." I tell my table. They look over to Jennifer and they all nod in agreement. Melissa stands up and I see her talking to Jennifer and her friend whose name I don't know. I see them come over and Jennifer sits next to Melissa and the other girl sits next to Katherine.
"Everyone, this is Jennifer" Melissa says signaling at Jennifer "And this is Lynn" she says pointing to the other girl.
"This is Mark and his girlfriend Katherine" signaling to them, "And this is my boyfriend John." She says with a smile. They all nod. We talk introduce ourselves. We talk for a bit and before we know it, lunch is over.
The rest of my classes are boring.
Finally, it's last block! Ugh, it's Spanish. I'm good at speaking Spanish but the class is sooo boring. At least Melissa has this class with me. I take the seat next to her and wait for the teacher, Mr. Molinar. Mr. Molinar comes in right when the bell rings and sets his things down. (A/N This next part is going to be in Spanish but I will traduce it to English after they say something in Spanish. The English part will be in italics after the Spanish part.)
"Buenas Tardes!" He starts the class saying Good Evening; we aren't allowed to speak English here. "Hoy tenemos a dos nuevas estudiantes. Jennifer y Lynn por favor introdúzcanse en español." We have two new students, Jennifer and Lynn. Please introduce yourselves, in Spanish.
"Hola, yo soy Jennifer y vengo de Chicago." Hi I'm Jennifer and I moved her from Chicago.
"Hola, yo soy Lynn y también vengo de Chicago." Hi, I'm Lynn and I also moved here from Chicago.
I zone out after they introduce themselves.
Then I hear Mr. Molinar say that we have to do a project in groups. I hope I get paired with Melissa. It's the most convenient way. Plus, I like working with her.
I hear a bunch of names that aren't mine,
"Jonathan y Jennifer" I wanted to work with Melissa. I guess maybe I could know more about this girl. I see Melissa glaring at her. She shouldn't be jealous. I would never look at another girl the way I look at her.
"Melissa y Lynn" At least she didn't get paired up with a guy. After the dreaded class I go over to Jennifer.
"Jennifer, where should we work on the project?"
"I just moved here and the house is a mess, so can we work at your place?"
"Sure. Come by at 4?" I grab a piece of paper and scribble my address. She takes the paper.
"See you there" And with that she walks away.
Melissa comes to my side.
"Where are you and Lynn working on the project?" I ask her.
"At home. At 4. You?" She asks back.
"Same."
I grab her hand and we walk to the parking lot. I unlock my car and I drive both of us home.
JENNIFER POV:
I'm going to be going to John's house today at 4. Maybe I'll figure out why he looks like a carbon copy of my dad. I see John get into a Black Porsche 918 Spyder with Melissa. He must be really rich if he can afford such a car. I check my watch and it's 3. I look at the address and I instantly know the location. I remember seeing a huge mansion there. That must be his house.
"OMG! Jennifer! Melissa lives in that humongous mansion we saw the other day." Lynn exclaims. They live together?
"Wait. John lives there too." I tell her.
"The live together? I wonder why…"
PAGE BREAK
I go into the building. I click on the 5th floor on the elevator. Lynn clicks on the 6th floor. I get out and tell Lynn to be downstairs at 3:45. She nods and the elevator closes.
"Hey dad!" I say as I walk in.
"Hey honey. How was the first day?"
"It was nice. Lynn and I made friends with these 4 kids but I think they are the popular kids and I'm not sure if it's a great idea to be friends with them. But they seem nice. I'll give them a chance." I ramble to my dad.
He chuckles.
"Oh and dad, I have to go to this guy's house for a project." He visibly tenses.
"Ok. But be back before dinner" Wow! That was surprising. I expected him to call John's parents and interrogate John himself. I nod and go change.
It's 3:45 right now and I'm waiting for Lynn. I'm wearing a Royal Blue Floral Lace Peplum Top and black jeans from Forever 21. Christina has definitely rubbed off on me. I see Lynn come out and she's wearing a White Embroidered Woven Tank and Black jeans. She looks pretty. We walk for about 10 minutes and we are there right on time. Their house is bigger than I remembered. It has about 5 floors and it's just WOW! I go up the steps leading to the door and I ring the doorbell. A lady, probably their maid, opens the door for us. I step inside and I am more amazed! I see Jonathan come down the stairs with Melissa.
"Follow us." Melissa says to Lynn and me. They lead is to a room on the first floor. It has a desk and books and everything you would need for school. This must be where they do their homework.
After 2 hours of working on our Spanish project we are finally done and it's worthy of at least a 90.
"I have to go home. I told my dad I would be home before dinner."
At that moment I hear someone enter the room. I turn around and I feel like I'm looking in a mirror. She looks just like me, just older and she has grey-blue eyes like John. She looks taken aback. Like me.
"Hi. I'm Jonathan's mom." She says extending her arm. I shake her hand and say,
"I'm Jennifer, we were working on our Spanish project." I say to the woman. "I have to go home. My dad's waiting for me." I explain to her.
"Why don't you and your friend stay over for dinner. You can call your parents if you'd like" I nod and take my phone out of my bag.
On the second ring my dad answers,
"Hey Jenny, is everything alright?"
"Yes. The thing is that Jonathan's mom invited Lynn and I for dinner and she asked if you and Lynn's parents wanted to come. So, do you?
"Sure. But can you ask her if we can bring a few friends?"
I put my hand over the phone.
"Mrs. Prior, my dad wants to know if he could bring a few friends." I ask Jonathan's mom.
"Sure, go ahead." She answers me. I put the phone back to my ear.
"She said it was okay." I tell my dad.
"Oh ok. We'll be there in 20 minutes."
"Okay, bye dad."
"Bye Jenny."
I end the call.
"They will be here in 20 minutes." I inform everyone. Every one nods.
20 minutes later…
TOBIAS:
The only reason I agreed to go to this dinner was to see what kind of people live here. I don't want my kid to be associated with the wrong kind of people. I drove Christina, Caleb, Cara, their kids, Zeke, Shauna, their kid, and myself in my van. Everyone thought the van was a bad idea but I knew better. It's helpful when you have to drive a handful of people everywhere together. It's 20 minutes after Jen called and we pull into their driveway. I park my van in an empty spot. I get out of the van and I look at the house. Wow. It's huge! They must be stuck up people. I sigh and think we shouldn't have come. Well it's too late now. Everyone gets out of the van and I lock it.
I go towards the door and ring the doorbell. A lady – presumably their maid – opens the door. We all file in and downstairs is a girl holding a boy who looks familiar's hand. In front of them are Lynn and Jenny.
"I'm coming." I hear someone yell from upstairs. She sounded like Tris. I push the thought away. Tris is dead and never coming back. I have come to terms with that. The next thing that happens shocks me. Coming down the stairs is the one and only person who I have ever opened up to, that I have ever been myself with, the only person I have ever loved. Coming down the stairs is…
Tris.
CLIFFY! Yes, I did that on purpose. I'm a very evil person put I had to end it here. Next chapter will be uploaded sometime this week. I am going to re write them all.
Also, when I put that Tris is the only person Tobias has ever loved, I meant romantically. Since he loves his daughter and he loves his friends too.
Until next time,
Rachel
