I wrap the towel tightly around my body and secure it. Being the genius I am, I forgot my change of clothes. On the bright side, no one will be able to see me because they're all probably still sleeping. The reason being that I decided I would make this a routine; getting up early enough so I'm the only one in the showers. It's probably because I'm not a big fan of undressing in front of people, let alone to take a shower.

Grabbing my things I scurry out doing my best not to trip and fall on the slippery floor and make my way back to my dorm. I reach room 104 in record time, digging into my bag to find my key. And just to my luck, I forgot it as well. My only option now is to knock, which means waking Four up in the process. But hey, I might as well have some fun with this.

Knock, Knock, Knock, "Four?" No answer.

Knock, Knock, Knock, "Four?" I'm standing in the hallway with only my towel, I'd be the joke of the school if anyone saw me.

I knock louder this time. Knock! Knock! Knock! "Four!"

Sure enough the door swings open with a half asleep boy standing before me.

He rubs his face mumbling, "What the hell Tris? Is this supposed to be some kind of joke?"

I side step around him and hastily run into the closet, I turn the flashlight on and grab my uniform for today. The skirt, black polo, and my black low top converse. When I exit I close the door as quietly as possible, assuming Four went back to bed. But to add-on to the already bad luck on the first day, Four stands against the wall with his arms crossed, eyebrows raised, and his hair an utter disaster.

"Care to explain?"

I sigh not in the mood to explain my already horrible morning, "I went to take a shower, but I forgot my change of clothes. Then I came back here, but I forgot my keys. So I woke you up and now here we are," I finish with a sarcastic smile.

He tilts his head and groans, "Well now that I'm up, I might as well get ready."

While he's changing I pull my hair up into a pony-tail and put on my black headband. Then I grab my big binder containing all my subjects, and my gym bag with my uniform and running shoes in it.

Four comes out of the closet still dazed with sleep. He's wearing the grey pants and the white dress shirt that has all the buttons in the wrong spots. He catches me staring, "Why are you looking at me like that?" I let out an exhausted huff and point to his shirt. "Your shirt is on all messed up."

He pinches his lips together and slowly nods but doesn't do anything. "Are you just going to go to school like that?" He shakes his head not speaking like this is a guessing game we're playing. "Do you want me to fix it?" He nods his head vigorously and smiles like a child who just received candy. "You're seriously a dork."

I start by unbuttoning the all the buttons, trying not to blush as his well-defined chest is right in front of my line of view. The only other time I've seen him like this was my first day here when he was laying on his bed shirtless and playing on his phone. I was to hooked on the fact that there was a mistake in the dorm arrangements that I really didn't take the time to admire his looks.

I finish re-buttoning them all in the right spots, and step back to grab my things. I slide my phone in my pencil-case because the stupid skirts don't have pockets.

"What are you doing?" He asks as I hug my binder to my chest.

"I'm ready to leave, what does it look like I'm doing?"

He rolls his eyes again, "We have to eat first, then we come back to get out stuff."

"But wouldn't we have more time to eat and chat with our friends if we brought out stuff to the cafeteria? Than we wouldn't have to make two trips." I say like it's the most obvious thing in the world.

"I never thought of that," He laughs. "Good thinking."


"So Tris, are you excited for your first day of school?" Zeke asks picking at his food.

"Who are you, my Mom?" He smirks at me and then glances over to Four beside me who is once again looking around the room.

"You're doing it again." I say nudging him in the shoulder.

"What?"

"Searching around like you're desperately trying to find something." I crease my eyebrows.

"I'm just trying to find her." Her. Her. Her. I look down and continue to eat, trying not to show the disappointment on my face.

Zeke's eyes go wide realizing what Four just said, and Four looks like he noticed too, because he almost looked scared for a second.

Then Four's phone beeps in the sound of a notification and I see Zeke also on his. They continue to send messages to each other without me seeing. Gee thanks guys.

When they're finished they both look up and nod to each other and Four turns to me.

"We're looking for Shauna," Four senses the confusion on my face because he continues, "Listen in your classes if you hear her name get called out on the attendance sheet. And if you see her, tell one of us."

I nod, not entirely sure why they're looking for this girl but I don't question it.

~.~.~.~

I wave goodbye to Four and walk into the science class. I take the seat on the far left side of the class by the window, in hopes not to draw attention to myself here. Students continue to pile in the classroom, but non of them have a familiar face. Well one thing's for sure: I'm not going to be looking forward to this class everyday.

To my surprise though, the class went by fairly fast. And the funny thing was I was actually paying attention. Who would've guessed.

I quickly make my way to the gym change rooms, in full excitement for this class. I pull out the big black cotton shirt that says "Elliot Phys. Ed" Across the front in white letters, and the red basketball shorts that have the word "Knights" written in white writing across on of the legs. I slip on my black and white running shoes and make my way into the gym.

I see the rest of my class standing around by the bleachers and notice they all either have their shorts rolled up and their shirts tucked in. I glance down at mine; the shirt looks two sizes to big on me and the shorts fall above my knee again. I shrug and jog over to the other girls.

The teacher - Mrs. Reyes. - blows her whistle and arranges us up in squads of five each. Our class having a total of 20 girls. I zone out as she calls the attendance until it reaches my name, except another name catches my attention before she reaches mine.

"... Shauna Eckert ..." Is she the Shauna the boys were looking for earlier?

After the attendance call, Mrs. Reyes starts to explain basic rules about how this semester is going to work. I listen at first, but then I notice a large group of boys walk into the gym all sweaty and gross from the door that leads to the track outside. It seems that I'm not the only one that notices, because all the girls have turned around to stare, whispering to their friends and what not.

Normally I would have turned around by now, if this were at my old school. But I catch sight of Four and Zeke standing side by side, in the same uniforms as us, just obviously larger. But I notice when they turn around they're not staring at me.

They're looking directly at the back of Shauna's head.
