Tris POV
Today is the big kickoff to the football season here at school. At my old school football was the least anticipated sport, instead we would always throw parties and celebrate for our hockey teams. However here football is their 'God', as Christina told me. She dragged me out to the field along with Mar, Shauna, and Lynn. From what I have learned over this past week is that Four is the star quarterback on this team along with the Zeke, Uriah and Will as the recievers.
At the moment I am freezing my ass off standing out here waiting for the guys. Christina was kind enough to NOT tell me to bring a jacket, so I am standing here hopelessly shivering in my black skinny jeans, and a white tank top with a canadian flag on it as well as my maroon low tops. After what feels like an hour, and ages of frostbite the guys finally walk out in their jerseys and sweaters. Please someone give me one.
"Are you okay?" Four asks looking slightly confused at my shivering body.
"Yea I'm perfectly fine standing here on the verge of frostbite because somebody told me it was going to be warm" I say sarcastically.
"Here, wear this" Four says swiftly taking off his hoodie. He puts it over my head, and I wiggle my arms into the huge sleeves. It is a black string sweater with a hood that says 'Divergent Devils' On the front in red and white writing. On the back it has a big number 4 with the name 'Eaton' written across the butt.
"Thanks, at least someone is willing to not see me turn into a fricken frozen blueberry" I say rolling my eyes. The whole group starts to laugh at my comment, however it really wasn't that funny. "What?" I ask, they are still laughing, some even clutching their stomachs.
"I was kind of hoping to see that happen" Uriah says wiping a tear from his red face.
"Shut up" I playfully punch him
The boys than say goodbye as they head out to the field to warm up. The other girls start talking about shopping of some sort so I just end up tuning them out. I look down at Four's sweater I'm wearing and inhale the scent of him. I know I probably sound like a creep but somehow his smell makes me feel safe and loved, as well as being wrapped up in his arms. Tris what the hell! You don't even like him that way. Or do I? This mental war keeps going on inside my head until Christina breaks it up telling us the game is about to start.
We take our seats as they start the kickoff, everyone is standing up cheering and hollering so I join in as well. After the first quarter we are winning 10-4. The teams are on time out, as I feel a tap on my right shoulder. I look to see three girls that Christina warned me about, she called them the 'Dip Shits'. She explained how they had their 'Queen Bee' which was the girl who has long blonde straight hair with bright blue eyes, Mona McGee. Than they had the two followers who did everything Mona did. They were slightly less intimidating versions of Mona. The one Christina said was the 'Popular One' her mother is a famous fashion designer, so they are supposedly very rich. She has curly brown hair and brown eyes, Harper Fuerth. Last but not least the 'Idiotic One' who is the most stupid girl you will ever meet in your entire life. Her blonde hair really does suit her, and her green eyes are hopelessly lost. Tae Brinnley.
"So it's true, you're the girl Four gave his sweater to" Mona spits
"Is there a problem?" I ask annoyed already
"Of course there is a problem! Four is mine! Understand! Just because you walked in here from another country doesn't mean you can go and steal my boyfriend!" She yells
"Hold up plastic. One he is not your boyfriend, and Two I am not stealing him from anybody, he is just my friend! Now go paint your nails and go shopping or whatever else you do" They remind me to much of the plastics from 'Mean Girls' the movie Ethan and I would always watch even though he hated it.
"Plastic? Did you just call me a plastic! Listen here miss. If you do anything with Four, you will never see the daylight again!" She says storming off with her 'backup' following her.
"Plastics, Tris you are seriously the best." Christina laughs
"Well that is all what came in to my head when I saw them" I say
After that little episode we continued to watch the game. We won 34-22 in the end, I still don't understand how football is so exciting to them compared to hockey, I guess I'll never know.
Christina leads us all back to the locker rooms as we wait outside for the boys to join us. We stand there for a good ten minutes before they all come out with shower water glistening in their hair.
"Good job" I say to them
"Thanks" They all smile.
"So, what should we do to celebrate?" Christina asks.
"What do you guys normally do?" I say slightly confused
"Normally we just go to someones house and have a movie/sleepover because the games are always on Fridays" She says
"Well everyone can come to my house, my parents are both in Florida right now for work and my brother is at some nerd convention"
"Sounds good! Everyone meet at Tris' in an hour" She says, I send my address to everyone and remember I'm still wearing Four's sweater.
"Four do you need this back" I say tugging the strings.
"No, you can give it back tonight. I don't want to see you turn into a frozen blueberry" he laughs bringing up what I said earlier.
~XxX~
Once I'm back home, I quickly run downstairs into our 'Gaming room' and set up the couches and the two chairs that hand from the ceiling as well as some bean bag chairs. I bring down some chips and drinks, setting them up on the table. The room has no windows, since it needs to be dark for better quality as my dad said. I hear the doorbell ring and bolt upstairs to see all of them standing in the doorway. I greet them and lead them downstairs towards the gaming room.
"Wow Tris your house is amazing" Zeke says giving himself his own tour. They all decide to tour my house on their own, except Four who just stands there while the rest of them roam around.
"Can you give me a personal tour?" He asks smirking
"What is this cribs?" I ask. He laughs and shakes his head. I start by showing him the mini hockey area we have to the right of the stairs. It is the length from the bottom of the stairs to the other end of the wall. With two entrances on either side. It is pretty much just a rectangular room with two nets on either side and some special flooring so the puck slides like actual ice. Four seems amazed that this is in our basement, but than I realized I never told them I used to play hockey and well still do. Aside from that room we have an air hockey and pool table and to the left of that is a mini kitchen with a bar and stools. We have a dart board as well as multiple signed jerseys form various hockey players my dad and I met. And finally I show him the game room which is pretty much behind the stairs but is sound proof so people don't have to listen to what is going on in the movie or video game. When I open the door he just stands in the way wide eyed.
"Four?" I ask waving my hand in his face. "Anybody home?" I say hitting his head.
"Um.. Yea.. sorry. Just this is incredible!" He says jumping on the the hanging chair.
"It gets better. Watch" I say as I go over to the speaker in the wall and press the button that allows the whole house to hear what I'm saying. My dad hooked this up here so he wouldn't have to 'scream' to get out attention.
"Everybody, unless you want to miss the movie get your asses down here!" I say and turn to see a smiling Four.
A few seconds later they come bursting in the door as shocked as Four was.
"Tris, you can seriously not get any better" Zeke says out of breath.
"Agreed" They all chime in. I laugh as we all find seats. Christina and will take the couch, Shauna, Mar, and Lynn take the bean bags, Uriah sits on Zeke's lap in the hanging chair on the right, and Four allows me to sit on his lap on the other chair. We somehow all agreed on watching the classic 'Toy Story'.
Half way through the movie most of us are all asleep except Four and I.
"If you're tired you can just go to sleep" He says softly. I don't respond instead I just curl up leaning my head on his shoulder and fall asleep to his heart beat.
