~TRIS' POV~
I hop on the train to head to school and am immediately confronted by Uriah. I really don't want to talk about what just happened. I need time to think. And thankfully he doesn't say anything, just sits there and stares off into space. And that's all he does for the rest of the day. In every class, and even at lunch. When its time for us to get back on the train I have had enough time to think and I can't take Uriah not talking to me anymore!
"Uriah?" It wasn't exactly a question, more like a statement. He looks up at me then drops his head again without saying anything. Really Uriah! Just talk to me!
"Please Uriah! Why are you mad?" At this he looks up but with a sense of hurt in his face.
"What are you talking about? I am not mad."
"Then why won't you talk to me?"
He sighs and pauses before responding, "Tris, are you sure about him?"
"What do you mean?"
"Do you know what his intentions are? Are you sure he doesn't just want… you know… se-"
"Of course not! Out of any guy that I have ever talked to, he seems least likely to be like that. Especially because he's a STIFF!"
He stands up and I can sense the anger in his eyes, but there is something else. Jealousy? No, that can't be possible. Uriah is like my brother! But I get pulled out of my daze by him yelling at me.
"Not any more Tris! He's in Dauntless now!"
"He's been in Dauntless for what? A week? If even that! People don't change that fast! Trust me I would know!" I immediately regret saying this, and I hope he doesn't catch on.
"What do you mean you would know? Coming from the factionless can't be that different from Dauntless. They are both extreme survival living situations, right?"
"Yeah of course, I don't know what I was talking about I really wouldn't know would I?" I hope he can't tell I'm lying, but how lucky can one person get?
"Tris, I have known you for a while now and I know that you're lying. What are you hiding from me?" Crap! What do I do know? But before I know it I see the compound come into view and I quickly jump off the train without looking back. But I also know Uriah and he is not giving up that easily.
