Chapter 2
No it can't really I have to be in a nightmare. Something! He can't be there.
I look up from the floor and see the striking and devious green eyes of my nightmare. It possible a different person can just look like him right?
"Tris! Are you alright? What happened?" Uriah pulls me up.
"I'm fine Uri. Just stumbled and tripped. Sorry for tripping you too."
"Oh no problem I know you just wanted me on you anyway." He gives that suggestive look, I just shake my head and walk on.
Zeke thwacks his ear and mumbles, "Idiot"
I check the seating chart, there lies the name I hoped to never hear, see, or say ever again. Peter... Peter Hayes. And I was placed next to him. Zeke, Uriah, and Christina were all placed on the opposite side. I won't let anyone know what happen, I'll just keep my straight face and push through.
When I go to set my bag down Peter turns, he looks like he's eating me with his eyes.
"Bea," with a sly smile. "Never thought I'd see you again"
"I w-was hoping for that"
Grabbing my hand, "now why would you want that?"
"Y-y-" I clear my throat, "you know why"
"But I thought that was just fun and games. Don't you want your best friend back?"
I sprint out past Ms. Matthews, straight to my car. I slump into the steering wheel; I can't see or hear anything, my sobs surround everything. I hug knees and try to calm down.
I can't let him do this to me. He's taken away so much I won't let him mess with me. I allow one more tear to fall.
And it's been awhile
Since I could hold my head up high
And it's been awhile
Since I first saw you
And it's been awhile
Since I could stand on my own two feet again
And it's been awhile
Since I could call you
And everything I can't remember
As fucked up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've stretched myself beyond my means
And it's been awhile
Since I can say that I wasn't addicted
And it's been awhile
Since I can say I love myself as well
And it's been awhile
Since I've gone and fucked things up just like I always do
And it's been awhile
But all that shit seems to disappear when I'm with you
And everything I can't remember
As fucked up as it all may seem
The consequences that I've rendered
I've gone and fucked things up again
Why must I feel this way?
Just make this go away
Just one more peaceful day!
And it's been awhile
Since I could look at myself straight
And it's b-
I slam my hand down to turn off my iPod. The world is not allowed to play the song that describes my life right now. I check my hair and eyes to make sure no one knows I cried. With another huff I get up.
I slam the door shut, turn to go throughout the day. I noticed that I scared this guy as I was getting out. I admit he was really hot, with dark brown hair and deep blue eyes. He mouth is stuck in fish spasm trying to figure how a small girl like me made that much noise.
As he continues staring I blush, until I realize he's probably shocked by the random fight between some other dauntless. I scoff, new kid.

I made it lunch only to realize Peter is also in my math class. At least I'm not forced to sit by him, Will and Marlene catch me up on their summers since we only had to listen to the syllabus.
We get to our usual table, where everyone already is. But there's a new guy dark short brown hair, similar to the guy in the parking lot. He is tan, has a hooked nose, spare upper lip and full bottom. Zeke says something to him; he turns to look at us. I feel as if all the air left me, those blue eyes can kill.
"Will, Mar, Tris this is Four. Four, I royally introduce you to William, Marlene, and Bea-" Zeke starts.
"Tris. Don't believe anything Zeke says" I whisper "He still believes in Santa and aliens"
"I do NOT!" Zeke exclaims.
"Don't deny it Zeke. Last week you ran away from a prairie field while hiking because you claimed, and I quote, 'There are crop circles! The aliens are going to eats us!'" Shauna supplied.
"Hey I thought you were supposed to be on my side!" Zeke bopped her nose.
"So is Four a nickname?" I asked ignoring the rest.
"Yeah what of it?"
"Nothing sorry" I looked down. Yet I still felt his gaze, I keep a straight face and eat quietly.
"Tris are you ready for soccer tryouts. We need our keeper"
"Why do you need me if Mar and Shauna do all the work on defense to keep me safe and the ball away from me. Then there's you scoring every goal from every angle possible." I tease
"Tris! Don't you ever say that! We would die without you, when we get intimidated by a team, you have our backs to inspire us by stopping every goal possible" Mar looks like she's ready to slap me just for joking that I won't tryout.
"Fine I will, just keep those forwards away you two" I pointedly look at Mar and Shauna.
"Four do you play any sport?" I ask, getting the attention off me.
"Football and soccer"
"Oh cool man what positions? Our keeper just broke his leg and running back got a concussion." Will inputs
Four smiles cockily, "I just happen to play both those"
"Sweet then we're bringing you to tryouts!" the Pedrad brothers exclaim.
"I doubt you better than Tris she's an all star" Shauna comments.
"I don't know abo-" I'm cut off by some squish thing hitting my head followed by a tray hitting my head.
"What's your problem!" I shriek, turning around and shrink back, "Peter"
