CHAPTER: 29 BAND (TRIS POV)

AN: Hey Ravens! I'm so sorry! I still haven't figured out how to update with school being back, but I promise I'll figure it out soon. So... Hope you like it! :)


"Tris wake up! I just had the best idea ever!" Christina says shaking my shoulder.

"What's your great idea, Christina?" I ask, rubbing the sleep from my eyes

"We should start a band!" She screeches, smiling

"Band?" I ask

"Yup! I already texted everyone told them to meet us in the cafeteria. Now get dressed!" She says throwing me my clothes and walking out the door.

"What just happened?" I ask myself, I shake it off get dressed and walk to the cafeteria.

"A band Christina?" Is the first thing I hear when I sit down.

"So it wasn't just a dream?" I ask to really nobody

"It's not a bad idea! I mean come on Tris writes her own songs!" Christina says, as I slap my hand over her mouth

"You what?" Alee asks me, I laugh nervously and start looking through my binder to avoid the question

"Tris..." Veronica says

"Yes?" I ask peeking out from behind my binder

"You write songs!" Uriah says, I nod "How did I not know this?" He asks me

"You never asked." I say shrugging

"Wait you guys didn't know that?" Tobias asks in disbelief

"Of course not! How did you know?" Zeke asks

"I'm her boyfriend you idiot." Tobias says

"Guys the band!" Christina says

"Let's meet again after school I have classes right now." Charlie says, I check the time and decide to get going too.

"So you write songs?" Charlie asks me

"Uggh! I thought I was safe around you." I complain

"You are! It's just... Tell this to anyone I will deny it and never tell you anything ever again." She threatens

"I promise." I say, crossing my heart she looks me over, I shift uncomfortably "What are you doing?" I ask

"Oh um the law teacher taught us how to tell if people are lying." She tells me,

"Oh!" I say nodding, as she takes a deep breath

"I write songs too." She blurts out, I look at her astonished

"Can I see?" I ask, she nods and nervously hands me a notebook

"Broken glass inside

Won't cut through me

Pain behind my eyes

I turn into strength

Oh I will fight

I will survive

I am invincible

I am unbreakable

I am a diamond cut to last

I am unstoppable

I am a hero

Like a phoenix from the ash

Invincible"

"I'm still working on that one." She says looking over my shoulder

"It's great." I say handing back the notebook

"Well I showed you mine now you are obligated to do the same." She says holding out her hand. I sigh and hand her my notebook

"Like a small boat

On the ocean

Sending big waves

Into motion

Like how a single word

Can make a heart open

I might only have one match

But I can make an explosion

And all those things I didn't say

Wrecking balls inside my brain

I will scream them loud tonight

Can you hear my voice this time?

This is my fight song

Take back my life song

Prove I'm alright song

My power's turned on

Starting right now I'll be strong

I'll play my fight song

And I don't really care if nobody else believes

'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me"

"I really like this one." She says pointing at my newest one

"Thanks I'm still working with that." I say, as I take back the notebook "See you after school." I say as we reach my class

"See you then." She says as she walks a little more to get to her class.

"Good morning Tris." Mr. Fernando says to me

"Morning." I say sitting at my assigned seat. I take out a book because I'm still early.

"Tris!" The entire class shouts. I jump in surprise and end up dropping my book

"Wha- oh here." I say, picking up my book. Crap, lost the page. I skim through the whole book and place my bookmark in the right spot.

"Welcome back to reality Ms. Prior." Mr. Fernando says as the class laughs.

"Define reality Mr. Fernando." I say laughing along with class. As I take my notebook out to take notes.

"Alright you have the rest of the time to start writing the first chapter of your book then tomorrow we'll see how far we get." Mr. Fernando says.

I start thinking of a good way to hook a reader and then I get one of 'light bulb moments' like don't we all have those moments?

"There is one mirror in my house. It is behind a sliding panel in the hallway upstairs. Our faction allows us to stand in front of it on the second day of every third month, the day my mother cuts my hair..." The bell goes off

"Alright class we'll start again tomorrow." Mr. Fernando calls as we all get up to leave. I spot Christina on my way out and try to hide.

"Oh no Trissy you are not getting out of this!" Christina shouts grabbing my arm and pulling me against my will.

"Great your all here!" Christina says pushing my down in a chair. I try to get up but I'm pushed back down.

"Are you like for reals on this whole band thing?" Lynn asks,

"Yeah! Listen I talked to Tori and Bud and they already opened up a studio." Christina says

"What about the tattoo parlor?" I ask kind of disappointed

"Oh don't worry that's open too. That's like her part time job now." Christina informs me

"But what would play what?" Alex asks

"Well we know that Tris and Charlie write songs and sing." Alee says

"I really hate you right now." Charlie says glaring at her

"Tell yourself that." Alee says

"Well then, Tris and Charlie will be our singer/song writers. Ooo I want to do wardrobe!" Christina says

"Me too." Shauna, Marlene, and Alee say

"Lynn and I shall be back up singers." Veronica says pointing at her and Lynn

"No I won't!" Lynn says

"Will too!" Veronica retorts, as Zeke and Uriah laugh "I also know that Zeke and Uriah are awesome at guitar." She adds challengingly

"Perfect! Any drummers?" Christina asks, we all turn to Tobias

"Seriously?" He asks, we all nod and go back to Christina

"Alright then you three backup dancers." Christina says pointing at Will, Alex, and Jacob "Got that Tori?" Christina asks pulling out her phone from behind her

"Yup! Meet me at my office tomorrow." Tori says on the other end before hanging up.

"Any one have a name?" Zeke asks

"Ravens!" I suggest excitedly, we all agree and decide that it's getting late.

"Night Ravens!" I call after everyone as we split up going to our dorms

"You see I told you it was great idea." Christina says poking my side

"Well you've had worst ideas." I say going to the bathroom

"I heard that!" Christina shouts

"Can't hear you!" I say as I turn up the radio and turn on the water. I quickly take a shower get dressed then go to bed careful not to wake Christina.

"Night Christina." I whisper

"Ni-" She mumbles before we both fall asleep.
