A/N:

Hola! So I read some REALLY spirit-lifting reviews, and they really made my day.

You guys are the best. Like legit.

Here's a chapter for you.

Disclaimer: I ain't own nothing.

Lunch. Amen.

I'm kind of scared to introduce Tobias to my friends. I mean, they already know who he is, they just don't know him. His personality. The one I've known for about ten years.

"You sure about this?" Tobias asks me, squeezing my hand. I know he means meeting my friends.

"Yeah, I guess so," I say back. I don't think I've ever been scared before. This is a new feeling for me. It feels...weird. Like I have no control about what's going to happen. I hate it.

He kisses me on the cheek lightly.

"Whatever happens, we'll be fine. I promise." That actually boosted my confidence about this. He puts his hands on my hips and draws his mouth towards mine, kissing me slowly. He pulls away too soon. "Always," he adds.

There's that 'Always.' again.

I lightly drag him towards our lockers, and we put our morning class' books away. I lead him to the cafeteria. He squeezes my hand again. We open the doors.

Instantly, everyone's eyes turn towards us. I'm used to the stars by now; always sticking out of the crowd. I can tell that Tobias is, too, even wearing his glasses. I almost forgot that no one has really seen him in them. I head us over to my normal table. The stares eventually drift away, or so I think they do.

"Uh, hey, guys," I say to them when we are in earshot of the table. They all throw glares our way.

"Hello, Tris," Lynn almost spits at me. "You too, Four."

"Well someone isn't in a good mood today," Tobias mumbles so only I can hear. I try to hold in a laugh. I know I shouldn't be laughing about my friends, but I just can't help it.

"Looks like someone's already whispering dirty things in the other's ear," Uriah says; low enough so no one else could hear, but loud enough so Tobias and I could hear. I resist the urge to roll my eyes. I tighten my grip on Tobias's hand.

I decide to introduce my friends to him.

"Well, anyways, Four, that's Lynn," I say, pointing towards the girl with the shaved head - Lynn. "I'm pretty sure you already know Uriah, because, you know, Zeke's brother and all." I point to Uriah with his bronze-colored skin and same color eyes. "You know Christina," I say, gesturing to Chris. "That's her boyfriend Will." I point to Will and his celery-green eyes. They aren't as bright and striking as Tobias's dark blue ones are. "And that's Uriah's girlfriend Marlene, in case you didn't know," I finish, pointing to Marlene. I was always jealous of her perfect hair. It's kind of like Christina's.

Tobias nods his head in acknowledgement to them, and they do the same.

"Be nice, guys," Christina says. I can tell she's trying to hide her anger. "Do you guys, uh, want to sit with us…?" Lynn and Will shoot her a look that says, 'Are-You-Freaking-Kidding-Me?!'

"I was actually thinking of sitting with T-Four's friends, if you don't mind," I say, not hiding my annoyance with them.

Marlene decides to speak up.

"You can do whatever you want with him, but you better damn right not forget about us. We helped you when he wasn't there. You better not forget that," she spits at me. I nod my head in understanding.

Tobias looks at me as if asking if I'm ready to meet his friends. I nod.

"See you guys…later?" I say.

"Definitely…and don't forget that I'm having a party tonight, and you and your boyfriend are more than welcome. You can bring his friends, too. If you want," Christina says. Judging by her tone, she's demanding us to go. This earns her another glare from the others.

"Wouldn't miss it," I reply with a smile.

"We should go," Tobias suggests. I nod at him as we walk towards his friends.

I can hear someone - probably Lynn - say something sarcastic that sounds like, "Nice glasses." I hear the rest of the table erupt into laughter.

"Ignore them," I whisper to Tobias. He nods, anger well written on his face.

"Four! My man!" Zeke yells when we approach. The anger slowly dissolves off of Tobias's face. "Whoa, dude, I haven't seen you wear those glasses in forever! And who is this fine lady you have brought with you?" he asks. I smirk at 'fine lady'.

"Lauren, Shauna, Zeke, this is my girlfriend Tris," Tobias says, emphasizing on the word 'girlfriend'. I smile and give them a little wave. They all smile at me. Well, at least Lauren and Shauna do.

Definitely more welcoming than how my friends were.

Zeke gawks at me.

"This is the girl you had to leave and cried over in my room for weeks?! Man, why'd you ever let her go? She's hot," he says. I can feel myself blush when he says 'hot'.

Wait.

Tobias cried over me?

I push the thought aside and look at Tobias. His face is flushed a deep red. I smirk at his embarrassment.

"Sit down, c'mon, tell us about yourself!" the girl, Shauna I think, says. She has blonde-brown hair, sort of the color of honey. Her face resembles Lynn. This must be the sister she is always complaining about.

Tobias and I sit down next to each other.

"Are you Lynn's sister?" I ask Shauna. She nods. "And you're Uriah's brother," I say, pointing to Zeke. He smirks and nods as well.

"And I'm no one's sister," Lauren comments smirking. I laugh.

For once, I actually feel kind of welcomed. Yes, Christina and all of them always comforted me, but they always had a comment about how my hair is too blue, or my clothes are too dark, or how I'm always a bitch to them.

Can't say that I wouldn't complain, either.

"By the way, girl, I love your hair," Zeke says, mocking a teenager girl's voice. I laugh again, and so does Tobias. "But seriously, I do. It's sick."

"He's right," Shauna comments. "For once." She kisses his cheek.

They must be dating.

"So how long have y'all been together? And why did you start wearing your glasses, Four?" Lauren asks. I look at Tobias and gesture for him to speak.

"Like, a day so far. And Tris said she liked my glasses on me, so I decided to make her happy," he says, adjusting his glasses.

Lauren smiles.

"It's nice to see that Four finally has a chick," Zeke says. "And a pretty cool one, too," he adds.

I smirk.

"I'm the best badass girlfriend he could ever be able to get," I say. Tobias laughs.

"She's right." He kisses my cheek. The girls chorus an, "Aw."

Yep, definitely more inviting than my friends.

I even forget to invite them to Christina's party.

Well, I didn't technically forget.

Oops..?

A/N:

AWWW SNAP *snaps*

Sorry for the sort of filler chapter, I needed this to get somewhere.

I'll definitely try to update tomorrow again.

Rate and Review ;)
