Thanks guys again for reading. I really love writing and I will try to make the chapter longer.
CHAPTER 2- Tris
I step out of my car and look around. The Dauntless house is painted black and has a sign above the main entrance. It says, 'DAUNTLESS HOUSE' and on the bottom of the banner, it says, 'THE LAND OF THE BRAVE'. Huh, this sounds more patriotic if you ask me. But hey no one is.
I snap out of my gaze when I see a girl approaching me. She has brown hair and tan skin and wears a sunset orange Hollister crop top with skinny jeans and a pair of Vans.
"Hi," she says, "You must be new. I'm Christina."
"Nice to meet you Christina. I'm Tris" I reply.
"OMG! I love that name. Is it short for something?"
"Um yeah, Beatrice."
"I like that name too! Sounds like an Abnegation name."
"Umm yeah it is. Are you from Candor?"
"HOW DID YA GUESS?" Christina says.
"Well you are very honest and always speak your mind."
"Why thank you." Christina says in a somewhat British accent.
I laugh. "That is the most hilarious accent I ever heard!"
Christina snorts. "Well, now look at the one who is being Candor."
At this we both laugh. I feel like Christina is going to be a lasting friend. "Hey Christina, do you mind helping me find my schedule and stuff?" "Sure thing!"
We walk out of the parking lot and I seem to notice the guy on the motorbike staring at me. I'm not special. Maybe he is staring at Christina.
"Hey Chris, do you know anything about that guy with the Harley?"
"Umm, let me think. Oh, Four! Yeah I do. He sits with us during lunch. Captain of the Football team, daredevil, best friends with Zeke. Oh you haven't met Zeke, right. And oh yeah! Girls literally throw themselves on him but he never listens. Dad died and mom works for the United Nations so she is never around."
"Thanks Chris. I think he was staring at you."
"Me? Nah, I'm dating Will and trust me, we are not each other's type. He was probably staring at, I don't know, maybe, you."
"WHAT?"
"You're totally his type but just saying, if you two end up getting together, you will have to go through a lot of jealous girls."
"We are not getting together…he doesn't even know me! Thanks anyway Chris."
"No problem. So let's go get those schedules!"
I groan, but follow her anyway. She leads us to a room marked, 'OFFICE' and leads me to the front desk. "Hey Tori, do you the schedules for me and my friend Tris?" Tori looks through her files for a minute and stops at letter H. "Here you go," She hands Christina a piece of paper marked 'Christina Holsky'. "And you Tris, what is your last name?" "Prior" I say. Tori looks again and stops at P. She then gives me my schedule and after that, Christina and I walk to our lockers. On the way I glance at my schedule-
Tris Prior
Grade 11
Period 1- AP Math
Period 2- Science
Period 3- P.E.
Period 4- Second Lunch
Period 5- Free Period
Period 6- English
I look at Christina's schedule. We have the same classes except I have AP Math while Christina has biology.
"Oh well, at least I get to see you 2 period Tris."
I smile and me and Christina reach our lockers. Christina excuses herself for one minute and runs up to a guy and kisses him. I assume he is Will. I turn back to my locker and try the lock.
"Why won't this freakin open?" I grumble. Then I hear a low voice, "Here let me."
I turn around and see I tall tan guy with brown hair and I can see a pair of abs forming through his shirt. I look up at him and see the same blue eyes. So this is Four.
"Thanks," I say and step aside and let him open my locker. "No problem. You must be new. I'm Four. This is Uriah, and Zeke." I look past Four and never really noticed the people standing behind him.
"I'm Tris, nice to meet you."
"Wait," Uriah says, "you're Tris?"
"Uh, if you don't believe me, check my birth certificate." Four and Zeke laugh.
"Guys, it's not funny. She was the one with the Ferrari parked up near Four's Harley." Their mouths drop.
"1, close your mouths you are going to catch flies," after I say that, Four and Zeke get pulled back into reality and then I add, "2- how exactly did you know that was my car?"
"Your licence plate said 'PRIOR 6' and I actually read the new student list for once and I remembered you last name." Uriah finishes.
"Well that explains a lot." We all say in unison. There is moment of silence before we all laugh. Before we have time to say anything, it's almost time for first period.
Thanks guys again for your support. I am a new writer so I am trying and all type of feedback is welcome!
