Chapter 2
Four POV
::::
Fantastic Baby! By Big Bang blasts from Eight's Prep Pad. I take the pillow, and shove it over my head, trying to drown out the sound. The noise is only muffled, but still audible. I close my eyes, but I feel something hit my back. I shoot up, and see Eight smirking at me.
"Get up you lazy piece of crap." He says, while staring at me. I groan loudly and climb out of my bed, tossing the blankets to the ground. With my eyes still heavy from sleep, I open my dresser, and remove a uniform. I open the second hallway door and enter the small hall. I groggily walk into the bathroom, and set my uniform on the small shelf. I start to change, when a spot of red on the floor. I wipe the sleep out of my eyes, and on the ground, lies a spot of wet crimson blood on the ground.
::::
I walk to the main hall for breakfast, but that is not on my mind. All that filled my mind was the spot of blood. I see Eren, Eight, and Tris all sitting at a table with the rest of the people I met yesterday. There is one spot at the table left, between Eren and Eight. I make my way over to them, but stop when I see Eight whisper something into Eren's ear. Then, they look at me, devilish smiles on their faces. I glare at them, knowing that they have something planned. I walk up to the spot, but right before I sit down, Eren shifts, making the empty seat next to him, and…
Tris.
My eyes widen as I realize I have to sit next to Tris. Deep down, I am glad that I could sit next to her, but I am nervous to do so.
"Ehem." I snap out of my daze, to see Tris looking at me.
"What you don't want to sit next to me?" she asks. A small smile is on her face as she says it.
"Well, that- that's not- um-" I start, but stop talking, knowing that it wouldn't be worth it to talk anymore.
"So you don't want to sit next to me?" she asks, her tone teasing, but a little bit of hope in her grey eyes. I sigh, and sit next to her. I look at Eren and Eight, who are laughing uncontrollably. "I hate you guys so much." I say quietly, which causes them to laugh harder. "I really hate you guys." I growl. "WE LOVE YOU TOO FOURY POO!" they shout, causing Tris to laugh. I groan and put my head in my hands.
::::
I walk to my dorm, mentally cursing Eight and Eren. I open the door, and see Eight laughing, while watching something on his Prep Pad. "Eight." I growl. He looks up, and stops laughing, while shoving his Prep Pad under his pillow. He looks at me nervously. I glare at him. "Why would you do that?" I hiss at him. He shrugs while looking down. I walk over to his bed, and pull out his Prep Pad, where a video of me acting flustered talking to Tris. I throw the Prep Pad on the bed and look at him. He pulls his knees up, and shuffles to the wall.
"YOU RECOREDED THAT?" I scream at him. He doesn't respond. I grab his wrist.
"Aww crap" he hisses, pain lacing his voice. I release his wrist, and see blood on my palm.
"Eight…" I look at him. I shove his bracelets down, revealing, fresh scars on his wrist.
"Are you cutting?" I whisper. He remains silent. "Why on earth would you do that?" I whisper yell. He remains silent. "It's not worth it." I reason. He glares at me, gets of the bed, and runs out the door.
::::
Eight doesn't come back until curfew. But when he returns, he just goes straight to sleep. I did the same.
::::
Today is the first day of classes. I have Biology on the Erudite floor. Luckily, the ice between Eight and I has thawed, so he will help guide me through the classes. Eren has Justice first; and according to Eight, the lunch break is between classes six and seven.
::::
I walk to the Erudite floor, following Eight. In front of each class, a teacher in a black lab coat and a blue tie. They each hold a prep pad, displaying the class name. in the middle of the hall, the teacher that let us in the school stands, holding a prep pad that shows the word 'Biology' in bold letters.
We walk into the class, and I see about 6 rows of 10, entirely made of desks, two chairs to a desk.
"Eight, can I sit with your desk?" I ask, and he looks at me with a small smile on his face.
"Of course Four." He replies.
::::
I was right about the teacher, his name is Dr. Matthews. The professor is really funny, and the class went by really quickly. After the bell went off, Eight guides me to our next class, teaching, on the Abnegation floor. The Abnegation floor is much different than the Erudite floor. Unlike every other floor in the school, this floor is completely grey, and every teacher wears a grey tie.
Teaching is thought by Dr. Black, she is a kind woman, but really quiet. Yet she exerts control over the students. Unlike biology, there are 5 long tables, six to each table. Who do I sit next to? I sit next to Eight, and of course, Tris. It was hard to pay attention in class, with Tris sitting next to me, I found myself zoning out looking at her, but luckily Eight snapped me out of my daze before Tris could notice.
Yet, I found her staring at me a few times.
::::
The next classes were all interesting, with a few classes with Eren and Tris, and a lot with the other people we met. Right after the last class of the day, I was walking back to the dorm with Eight, when Eren runs through the opposite door.
"Hey! Guys!" he shouts. He stumbles across the carpeted floors, until he screeches to a stop in front of us. He bends over, places his hands on his knees, and takes a deep breath. He looks up at us, a extreme grin on his face.
"I just a set up a triple date with all three of us tonight!" he exclaims
"EXCUSE ME *****" Eight screams, and slaps Eren across the face.
"What the crap Eight?" he exclaims.
"WHY IN THE **** WOULD YOU SET ME UP WITH A FREAKIN GIRL?" Eight screams
"I never said girl" Eren mumbles. Then Eights foot is in his face.
"ARE YOU ******* SERIOUS YOU ********?"
"JK, You are going with some girl named Nita!" Eren laughs, clutching his cheek, where Eight kicked him. Eight walks up to Eren, grabs his neck,
"I will kill you." He growls, and then walks out the door.
"Oh yeah, Four, you are going with Tris." He says with a wink. I stare at him, and slap him.
::::
The triple date is outside the school, on a picnic table, that Eren decked out with a white table cloth and candles.
Eight, Eren, and I are on one side, while Mikasa, Nita, and Tris are on the other.
"Tris, I apologize for my brothers crazy actions, and springing this date on you." I apologize. Tris laughs it off, "Oh its fine. I don't really mind." She laughs, and I feel warmth from my chest when I hear she doesn't mind.
The conservation with Tris is going well, and from the looks of it, Eren and Mikasa have hit it off. But, Steph and Eight don't seem to click. Eight has resorted to read on his phone, as Steph wont make any eye contact, and keeps on staring at me. its creepy.
Then Eight snaps.
"You know what? Can I just leave?" all heads snap to him. "If Nita is just going to stare at Four, can I just go?" he says.
"It's not my fault Four's hot." Nita cries. "Just focus on your own date!" Tris exclaims. Nita looks at me, rapidly blinking her eyes, trying to be seductive. "Four, you want me to stay, don't you?" she says.
"Nah." I reply, and with that she's gone.
"And, the date is gone." Eren says.
"Not Necessarily." Mikasa says quietly. "We could just turn this into some time to get to know each other." She concludes. I shrug, and Tris nods.
::::
So after some basic talk, I figured out that Mikasa's family adopted Tris after they found her on the street. Tris didn't go into detail however. Eren went on to talk about how he was kicked out by his dad, and how he lived by himself for a while. We keep on talking, when Tris looks at Eight, who looks uncomfortable.
"What about you?" she asks. Eight closes his eyes.
"When I was younger, about 3rd grade, my sister and I were walking home from school, we were twins. This woman, she had a hoodie on, so we didn't see her face, and she cried some weird word when she saw us, something that ended with 'gent'; and she started to follow us. We ran home, and right before I got inside, she grabbed my sister. My parents ran out to get her, but I heard two shots, and my sister scream. When I went outside, my parents were dead, lying on the road and my sister, was gone." He finishes.
Tris stares in shock at Eight.
"Eight, what's your last name?" she inquires. Eight sighs. "My name is Eight Prior." A tear slips out of Tris' eye.
"My name is Beatrice Prior." She whispers. Eights eyes widen. "Beatrice Grace Prior?" Eight whispers tentatively. Tris nods, more tears sliding down her face. She runs around the table, and leaps into Eights open arms. "I thought you were dead." Eight whispers, putting his cheek on the top of her head.
"I thought you were killed." Tris sobs into his chest. A tear slips from Eights eye, and I hear him whisper the word 'finally'.
::::
Eight and Tris went to the Main Hall to talk, so Eren, Mikasa and I decided to just spend the last two hours before curfew together.
"Four. Do you have a crush on my sister?" Mikasa suddenly asks. My eyes widen in shock. "Well. Uh- yes? No. I don't know." I stutter. Mikasa smiles, "I am not supposed to tell you this, but she likes you." She laughs, "Just don't tell her I told you." She says, and I smile.
::::
After a failed date, Eight finding a lost sibling, and finding out my crush likes me back, I head back to my dorm room. Inside, I see Eight looking at an old photo. I close the door, and he looks up, he smiles at me.
"Hey Eight." I say, "Hey, I'm sorry for stealing your date." He says. Shock surges through me. He finds his sister after years of thinking she was dead, and he's sorry for taking her away. "Eight, its fine, I don't blame you." I tell him seriously. He laughs, "Get ready for bed!" He shouts as I try to take a seat.
I groan, and grab a change of clothes, "Okay MOM." I say sarcastically. I walk into the adjacent hall, and say hi to Armin, who is grabbing a drink from the fridge. I lock the door, but as I'm changing, I see something glint in the trash. I throw on my clothes, and look in the bin.
Inside the bin, a razor, covered with dried blood lies on a pile of tissues and other crap. I feel a grin on my lips, knowing that Eight threw that stupid razor away.
I unlock the bathroom door, and enter the room, and find Eight hanging the picture he was looking at above him bed. "What's the picture show?" I ask. Eight jumps, and turns around.
"God Four, you scared me." he cries. I laugh, and he rolls his eyes. "if you really must know, it's a picture of me and Tris in the third grade." He says. I look at the picture, it's a picture of a young boy with short hair, and thick glasses, presumably Eight, with his arm around a girl, with blonde hair that goes halfway down her back, the girl has the same glasses as Eight. I'm guessing the girl is Tris.
"Nice glasses." I laugh, at their extremely nerdy glasses (Pic in profile). But instead of a laugh, he returns my statement with an intense glare. "Dude. Not cool."
I hold up my arms is defense. "What, I'm just saying, those are some nice glasses."
Eight sighs, and runs a hand through his hair. "I'm sorry, my older brother gave them to me."
"Oh, did something happen to him?" I ask, Eight just nods, "He died in a car accident when Tris and I were 5." I just nod.
"Caleb was 19 when he died." He finishes. I place a hand on his shoulder.
"If it helps in any way, My little sister died when she was 3." I tell him. I normally don't bring that up, but I felt like it was the only way to console him. Eight nods, "I've come to terms with it."
::::
The intercom just told us to be in our rooms, and Eight and I have decided to call it a night. I climb into bed, and close my eyes. But I open them again, when I hear Eight's voice.
"Four, do you want to date my sister?"
Now that question catches me off guard.
"Eight honestly, I'm not sure." I tell him truthfully. He remains silent before saying,
"If you end up with her, you have my approval." He tells me. I laugh quietly.
"Thanks Eight."
"No problem Cuatro."
I get out of bed, and slap him.
