(Tris POV:)

We hear the bell.

"Okay, guys! We need to get to class!" Christina tells us. Once we get in the halls, Christina asks me what my first class is.

"Say what? Oh, I still need to pick up my schedule. Crap, see you later Christina."

"Bye Tris!" She tells me, lost in the sea of lost freshmen that are trying to get to class.

"Hey, Tori," I say, walking up to the front desk.

She holds up her finger, clearly she's on the phone. "Wait one minute," she mouths. I nod.

"Okay. Thank you Mrs. Dephelps. I will tell her that. Bye."

"Sorry," I say blushing.

"There's nothing to be sorry for Tris. Now what can I do for you?"

"I never got my timetable for this semester."

"Really? I thought that those were all taken care of? Oh, right. There's a new senior, The mayor's son. He wanted the best classes for his son, so some rearrangements were made."

I nod, remembering Four.

Soon, Tori has it printed out for me. "Junior already? You're growing up fast girl."

I smile. "Thanks. Have a nice day Tori."

"You too. Here, have a mint."

"Thanks. Bye!"

I look at my schedule, and pop the mint into my mouth. Now, what's first? Oh, right. It's right here in front of you Tris. Real smart of you.

I walk to math, forgetting that I am late for class. By now, only a few stragglers and people lost or kicked out of class are still in the halls. I try sneaking into math class. Then the teacher, Mr. Adams sees me.

"A little late, are we, Miss Prior?"

I nod uneasily.

"Care to explain why?"

"Uh, I never got my schedule, so I had to go grab it from Tori."

He nods.

"I see. Well, let's not dwell on our flaws. Focus on our strengths!" He tells me.

I smile uneasily and find a place to sit. Susan is sitting next to Caleb, and all of the girls are sitting near Four. He tells them to back off.

"Want to sit here?" He asks me.

I shrug, "Sure."

One of the cheerleaders tries to get Four's attention, "Oh, come on! You could do so much better with me!"

"I don't want you! Or your stupid friends!" They all blush and look away.

Mr. Adams clears his throat, trying to calm down the class, "Alrighty! Listen here! This class will learn. About algebra and how to sit still and quiet. Now, shall we get started? Okay, then! Lesson 1 teaches us about the multiple powers of variables and their uses..."

Four just sits there, listening to Mr. Adams. He doesn't blink, or change his expression. I cannot take it any longer!

"Four! Four!" I whisper.

"What?"

"Smile why don't you? All those pretty girls are sneaking glances at you. And you want to sit by me?"

"I like what Zeke told me about you."

"Ha! You trust him?!"

"He's my only friend. Well, I only mostly trust him."

I nod and blush. He likes me?! Duh, he stood up to Peter for me...

"Beatrice!"

I whip my head around, "Yes, Susan?"

"I don't understand what Mr. Adams is explaining. Can you help me?"

"Why not ask Caleb? It's obvious he likes you, and he's paying attention."

She blushes, "Thanks anyways Beatrice."

"Anytime."

I stare at the clock for the rest of math, bored as hell.
