(Flashback)

"Hey stiff!" A boy ran past, throwing out his hand he hit me first in the chest then my face, I can feel the burn of his hand on my cheek and the burn of my cheek for my nickname. Gathering my fallen books I feel another pair of hands brush my own, helping me. Straightening I saw Four, he was well know throughout the school as being perfect.

I bowed my head, "Four."

"Beatrice," He looked me in the eye, "Beatrice prior?"

"Yes."

"14 Maydondies Avenue?"

"Yes." Had he noticed me? Why did he know?

"Daughter of Andrew Prior, Education Minister?"

"Yes..." How did he know that? Did he like me?

"10 years old?"

"Yes," Now is was half between scared and thrilled.

"I live down your road." He grins, my stomach sinks. He only knows me through seeing me everyday not because I'm special.

"Oh yeah..."

"Finally Recognise me." He rolls his eyes and I laugh, the bell goes for the end of school and he shrugs, "Wanna walk home?"

(12 months later)

Click, click, click

I jolted up, banging my head on the wall, and sprinted to open the window. In fell a blonde boy, going brown, with deep, dark eyes. Before I could even say hi he looked me in the eye,

"Will you go out with me?" My face obviously showed my shock. We had been friends for months, and I had always liked him but he liked me was a dream. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..."

"Yes." I throw myself into his arms, we might be 12 and 14 but even so... "I thought this would never happen. I dreamed of course but..."

"I thought you would never say yes." He looked at me for a second then pressed his lips to mine.

The world vanished into nothing, my head stopped throbbing. Even the sound of a car outside sounded like nothing. I could only feel his hands on my waist and mine on his back. Then like it had began it was gone, and so was he. I opened my eyes and the window slid shut as he vanished.

(2 years of dating. 14 and 16.)

I stood in line, it was fear day. Every year at this time we did our fear landscapes.

The boys stood on one side, the girls on the other. One boy, one girl went in at a time. They would decide who's to see and would complete it. The boy would request a girl and if she had been through before pick another. The girl could refuse, I had done 5 times.

Since I became 14 and I grew up a bit and learnt Karate I became 'popular'. I didn't like the boys falling over my feet or the constant messages over facebook but I lived with it.

"Beatrice Prior, Four would like to go through with you I am guessing you answer is no." The teacher sounded bored,

"No, I will go through now. I don't mind." Stepping out of the line I walked confidently toward the door and though it. I only ever been through this alone, so entering into a feisty wind and open space shocked me a bit. Studying my surroundings I noticed we were on the top of a very high building, also there was a person crouched down head in hands about 2 meters away. Running over I realise its Four.

"Come on, stand up. We need to jump." He stands up notices me and hugs me tightly,

"I decided it's time you learn my name." He whispers, I close my eyes and breath deeply.

"Come on." I grab his hand and walk toward the edge, pulling him along. "3...2...1...Jump." I launch off the edge, pulling him after. He yells as we fall and the room changes, 3 walls slam into us and he cries out. "Put your arms around me, good. Now breath and feel my heart beat." I conentate, I can't because his face is buied in my neck.

"Four." He looks at me, and I kiss him. Within a second the walls vanish and a table appears with a gun on it, but we don't resurface for a few more seconds. "Whats this?"

"Okay." He dosen't answer but picks up the gun and loads it like he has done it 1000 times, he walks toward a faceless woman, she looks him in the eye and he breaths in aims and fires. Looking away as soon as he can he walks back to me. As he reaches me a circle of light engulfs us, a figure prowling the edge. As the man comes into light he smiles,

"Tobias, this is for your own good." He pulls his belt out from his jeans, suddenly multiple Marcus's appear around us all laughing. I look around for a boy they are going to hit and Four can't save. But Four is crouching on the floor scared. My mind goes so fast I can't see straight, Tobias, Four's name is Tobias. He is scared of his father, Marcus Eaton. Out of the corner of my eye I see Marcus lower the belt toward Tobias,

"No!" I scream and throw my arm infront of the belt, it wraps around my wrist and the pain makes my vision darken but I have to save Tobias. Marcus raises the belt again and Tobias pushes me out of the way and the marcus's vanish. The lights come on and tears run from my eyes,

"I'm so sorry." I whisper into his shirt, he just stokes my back and helps me out of the door into a corridor, "Look I don't care, do you want to tell everyone about us?"

"Okay." And he replaces his arm around me, walking into the cantine everyone looks our way but looks away again. They can tell yes we are together but it is for a reason past popularity, the tears on my cheeks and his face tell everyone what to think. We walk straight through the middle and into the hall. Ignoreing the stares and the cry of one of Four's admirer's.
