After School
I walk out of Divergent High for the first time, with my head held high and my new friends behind me; Christina, Uriah, Zeke, Marlene, Shauna, Will and Four. Before my private lacrosse tryout tonight, I have decided I would take up the offer of going out after school to 'Dauntless Bakery', to what they describe the 'home of the best chocolate cake' and 'Heaven on Earth'.
Before, I decide to drop my car at home, and get my lacrosse bag. Christina offered to drive me to the feildhouse. I quickly open the garage, pull in my car, then run up to my bedroom and grab my lacrosse backpack, with contents of my cleats, turf shoes, shorts, sweatpants, helmet, goggles, mouthguards, jerseys, tournament shirts, socks, hairties, my waterbottle, and both of my lacrosse sticks. I have learned 'the more is better' and I would rather be prepared for what I have no idea what I am walking into.
Just as I am exiting my room, I hear a horn honking. From only knowing Christina for one day, I already laugh as if I have known her for my whole life.
I exit through my front door and am shocked to see a completley different car, instead of Christina's jeep. I am greeted by a truck with Four in the Driver's Seat.
"Christina took up an offer from Will to go mess around and now our bakery plans are dust. I figured you would still expect a ride." He laughs, and so do I, feeling happy, that I have him as my friend.
"Well, you are right. So what do we do? My tryout isn't until five-thirty, Its only four-thirty now." I ask, while clibing into his huge truck.
"I was thinking maybe we could go get Starbucks? And I also need to go to the feild house and use the gym anyways, so maybe we could get there early or something? You dont seem like one who messes around wit this sort of stuff, considering all the stuff in your backpack. And two lacrosse sticks? Really?" He laughs, again.
"Well, you never know. I like both of them, and sometimes, I can't stand using the same stick for defense and offense."
"Hey, I get it. I'll tell you something you probably don't know about me. I play lacrosse too. I have a couple of tricks under my sleeve." He winks and smiles.
"Oh shut up."
"Haha, now you dont feel so special, do you?" He winks again. I want to shove his face but I know I shouldn't, he is driving me to the most important tryout ever after all. My family and I are planning on staying in Chicago for a while, I am excited to make friends and have a normal life. After Starbucks has been aquired, for the second time today(Four didn't let me but my own drink!) we approach Hopkins Feildhouse, what looks like a decently sized facility, we both get out, and enter the building.
"Bye Tris. Good luck!!"
"Don't need it!" I yell, only half serious.
"Hey there, you must be Tris Prior. My name is Mike, I am the coach for Chicago Elite Lacrosse, and after you get changed, I will meet you in the North Feild, the one to your right, and we will get started." I proceed to the locker rooms and quickly throw on an 'Opening Weekend' Tournament shirt from when I played on a team in New York, a red and white pinny, under armour shorts, and socks, shoeless.
"Hey there, I was wondering, woud you prefer me to wear cleats or turf shoes?"
"Wow. I wasn't expecting that. Turf shoes would be fine, thank you!" I quickly slip on and tie my under armour highstrung turf sneakers.
After that, we get started with some conditioning, two man passing drills, shooting, wallball, defensive work, and some agility. While I am taking a water break, I see none other than Four, watching. To let him know, I make a dumb face. He just smiles and looks away, as if he was innocent.
Nearly an hour later, I am done with my tyout. Mike just looks me in the eye and says, "If it wasn't obvious enough already, you made the team. Practices are every night 6:30-8 and games are TBD. We have a tournament next weekend in Indianopolis. Thank you, and welcome to Chicago Elite! What would you like your number to be?"
"If it is possible, I would love number Six. And also, thank you! I can't wait!"
"Of course, Tris. Your uni will be ready by practice tomorrow. Have a good night!"
I walk off the feild, sweaty. Happy, but very sweaty. I am greeted by Four.
"Stalker."
"Stalker's Stalker. Did you make it?" I just smile.
"Im taking you out for a burger, and besides, my season is already over, so now I have nothing to do!"
We get in his truck. I have changed out of my clothes from tryouts, into ripped jeans, my airforce ones, and my flannel and shirt from this morning. We drive through a place called 'Duffy's Dine and Dash'. I get a hamburger, and he gets a cheeseburger. I insist to pay and he once again cuts me off before I can finish.
FOUR POV
This is like a dream man, after one day I have a major crush for this girl and am taking her out in my truck to eat. I hope she likes me back, but I feel like she only sees me as a friend. After we finish our burgers, I lean in, better take a chance or never find out...
TRIS POV
Four is leaning in. I think he wants to kiss me. OH MY GOD!!
I obviously kiss him and we stay like that for what feels like an hour. We both realease from our kiss and he is smiling like an Idiot. I think I am too.
"Tris, I know I may be taking things too fast, but I really like you, and I know its only been one day, but will you be my girlfriend?" I stop for a minute, which is dumb, I know the answer already.
"Of course. I would really like that." We both smile.
"Also, my real name is Tobias. You can call me that when others arent around. It would be nice to hear my name again." We pull up to my house.
"Goodnight, Tobias." I say, while kissing him on the cheek.
"Goodnight Tris!" He yells as he pulls out the driveway.
