The Past (Chapter 8)
Recap~
" Wonderful singing Tobias! Your voice is smooth and beautiful as well!~ Good job! Now please take a seat and the next person up is..." I went back to my seat and listen to the next person singing. I didn't pay attention and kept glancing at Tris. I finally stopped and put my usual personality back on. I wonder what is the announcement sir has to make later.
End of Recap~
Normal P.O.V
-Time Skip-
" Okay~ so I've heard everyone sing right? Therefore it means it's time for the announcement. The school principal had decided to hold a singing competition within the school and the first four winners will get to have $100 vouchers to any store they want and a trip to behind the fence for a week." The teacher announced. The mention of the trip to go inside the fence got Tris's attention and she leaned forward to listen keenly to get as much info about it.
"Each class will have to have 2 students picked by their teachers to join in the competition and once the teacher chose the students, it is compulsory for them to participate. Anyone who wasn't chosen can also sign up to be part of it." The teacher had continued, " This class representative for the competition is Tris and Tobias. You will be getting more information about the themes and rounds later on. Also I will be more than happy if anyone of you are also signing up~ Please tell if you do."
Everyone started mumbling about the competition and the leader of the Tobias's fan club, Nina started to complain to the teacher about how it wasn't fair because nobody was prepared and that Tris shouldn't be chosen because she is a new student. But the teacher casted off all her comments and said that the whole is to see how well people could sing without preparation and pick best ones out of that because than they will be even better in the competition with preparation.
End of Normal P.O.V
Tris's P.O.V
I have to join that frigging competition now just because I sang well or something? Sigh- I really don't want to and I probably wouldn't have kept quiet about it except the prize interest me. The first four winners get the prize eh? I guess I do have to put a little effort in this... just so I can go back inside in the fence for a week to meet with mum and dad. I need to win this even if it's by barely winning. I can't believe that Tobias got in as well... Well his voice is nice and when he sings you can feel all the emotions behind them but I really didn't expect him to be the other representative though, like I wasn't expecting me to be one either, whatever...
-Time Skip, 2 days later-
Two days had past and all Tobias did was annoy the hell out of me. Sigh. Anyway it's finally time to battle this out with them, I've been waiting for it ever since like forever. I just wish that they came prepared because nevertheless I don't want to hurt them too badly. I started walking to the quad in my casual clothes, not bringing any weapons. The first thing I was expecting to see was just a bunch of girls getting ready but nope, I see Tobias staring straight at me and smirking like I'm doing this to 'have him' from the fangirls.
" Tobias, what the hell are you doing here?"
" Why can't I be here? This is a challenge between my fan club and the girl I'm interested in."
" Did you just? Nevermind I don't care anymore."
"You heard it right Tris, I'm interested in you. And did you call me Tobias before?"
Oh shit, I just notice I've been calling him Tobias. Why am I doing that? I should hate him and saying random insults at him, not call him by his name. Urgh.
I raised my eyebrow and replied calmly, " No I didn't call you by your name you idiot."
"Oh~ really?~"
" Tsk."
I ignored him and walk up to the quad to face the daring fangirls. Now that I notice, there are a lot of people gathering around here, either as audience or as a challenger. Nina came up to me and asked if I remember the deal of this challenge, of course I remember, I will free precious quiet alone time, why wouldn't I remember? I nodded as a reply and asked if we can start the fight soon, I am getting impatient.
" Alright girls! Get ready~ we are starting the challenge... NOW!" As soon as she shouted the word 'now' everyone dashed towards me.
I dodged some hits and sweep someone's feet and they fell down. I caught someone's hand holding a bat and twisted it, not so much it would break but enough to loosen the hold on the bat. Picking up the bat, I started hitting them in different parts of the body that will only cause bruises. This continued for a while until everyone was worn out form the fight. I had won the battle of course since I had trainings since young but that doesn't means that I'm invisible. I still got a lot of bruises all around my body and I know that I will have sore muscles for a while...
"Nina, thanks for the battle, it's been ages since I had this much fun. Take care I guess..?"
I began to walk back home and right now I'm shocked that I said something totally unexpected to Nina. I kinda had fun though, it's been a long time. I can heard someone jogging behind me to catch up and without turning I could tell it's Tobias... I don't why but he has this distinctive feature that makes him easy to be identify... only him though, which is weird.
" And you're running up to me because?" I hollered to him.
"How do you that I'm running behind you?"
" ... I just do."
"Awww that make me feel so special~" He sang mockingly.
"Tch."
"Anyway, your fight is breathtaking Tris! I've never since a girl fought like that before."
"Was that supposed to be sexist?"
"Umm no... It means what it means?"
"K"
" K? Is that all after I complimented you?"
" Yup, now go away!" I exclaimed a little to quickly, wanting him to hurry up and leave because I'm feeling light headed and I know I'm going to faint.
He didn't listen to me and left me alone; instead he kept walking and talking to me. By the seconds, my vision is getting more blurred and my brain isn't processing anything at all... and I don't know what happened next.
End Of Tris P.O.V
Tobias's P.O.V
Even though she told me to go away I just kept walking and talking to her. After all I need to get her to open up to me so that I can make her fall in love with me. But Tris had been acting weird since the minute pass and I'm getting worried for her health as she just fought so many other people. I asked her if she's alright but instead of a reply she fainted and her head almost got bash into the ground. I barely caught her and checked her temperature with my hand and I can say that she is having a really high temperature. I took out her phone and look through her contacts to find her guardian's number.
"Hello? Is this David? Tris's Guardian?" I said calmly.
"Yes, I'm David, Tris's guardian. Did something happened to her or did she get in trouble again?" He asked worriedly.
"Oh no she didn't got in trouble, it's just that she fainted and seem to have a high temperature. I am one of her friends, Tobias and I would like to bring her back to your house for her to get some rest but I don't know where she lives. So do you mind telling me the address so I can bring her back to you?"
" Oh sure~ No problem! Address: xxxxxx. And thank you Tobias for being so kind and being Tris's friend. Also I wouldn't be home so do you mind staying and help me take care of her? I promise I will be back soon and I would explain the situations to your parents."
" Yea that wouldn't be a problem, and no it's ok I live by myself so there will be no need to alert my parents."
" Oh I see, ok than I'll leave Tris in your care. Thank you and I'll be back ASAP."
I carried Tris on my back while holding our bags in one hand. When I got to her house, I used her keys to open the door and brought her into one of the room, which seems like it's her room. I lay her down in her bed and put the covers over her body to keep her warm. I than went out and prepare some dinner, cold towels and medicines for her. It took a while for me to locate everything since it's my first time in her house. I hope she gets better soon because I can't stand seeing her sick like this. It gives my heart a stabbing pain like it's breaking. I guess I really love her a lot, please get better soon Tris.
"Get better soon..." I whispered to no one in particularly but it was meant for Tris, not that she can heard it though.
