Sorry I've taken a few days to update. I had to go to a funeral yesterday so you can't hate me ;). Thank you to Mintclaw for this idea, you really helped me out ~ FourandFred

Tris's POV

I wake with a start. It's the same nightmare, over and over again. Only, it's not a nightmare. It's real.

I was hoping my dreams would be filled with extraordinary blue eyes and laughs which make my heart flutter, but unfortunately they weren't.

I rub my eyes to wake myself up, but in the darkness, all I can see is the blood on the wall which haunts me. 'See what happens when forgiveness isn't given.'

I shake my head and shove the image to the back of my mind. I never want to think about it or relive it. It's why I don't want to get close to anyone. They'll tell me their secrets and I'll tell them mine, but they'll be disgusted in me. Everyone will hate me, and I can't bear going through what happened to me last time again.

I get up, out of bed, and pull on some clothes. I find myself making more of an effort today, and I know it's for Four. I pull on some skinny jeans, a black crop top and some combat boots. I straighten my fringe, which is slightly in my eyes, and curl my hair a little bit and brush it lightly so it's in loose waves.

'Christina will be happy with me' I think, after applying my makeup. She's been trying to get me to make an effort with my appearance for years, but I've never listened to her.

Looking at my watch, I see I need to go. I head out to my car and I remember it's at school. I groan inwardly. Looks like I'm going to have to walk.

"Tris" I hear a voice shout.

I turn and see it's Four. I raise my hand in greeting, but don't say anything. I'm too nervous and excited to talk.

"Do you want a ride?" he asks and I shrug.

"I can walk, it's not that far"

He rolls his eyes and opens the car door for me "Just get in"

I scowl at him for a second, but my heart leaps when I go over and sit down next to him. He starts driving and we sit in silence for a while. I can't take the silence anymore so I turn the radio on and look out the window. I feel his stare burning through my head but I don't look at him.

A new song comes on and I recognize it and apparently so does Four. He turns the radio up until its deafening and starts singing along to it in a surprisingly good voice.

I look at him in surprise and he grins and turns the music down.

"I've never seen so much emotion on your face" he says, laughing

I shove his arm, making sure it's the one that isn't on the steering wheel. "I just didn't expect you to like 'Kings of Leon'. That's all"

"Are you sure that's it?" he asks, in a teasing voice.

"Fine" I snap "You have a good voice"

He laughs again and says "Wow, I think I'm bringing out your nice side"

"Whatever" I mutter, looking back out of the window.

"So" he says, getting serious "Are you going on this trip to the lake?"

"Yeah, it's better than being stuck here. Are you?"

He grins "Yes, I am officially going"

"Was it not official before?"

"No, I asked last night. So, now you have one month of seeing my face everyday"

"Oh, joy" I say, sarcastically.

"Rude"

He gets to school and pulls into a space which is the furthest away from the building.

I roll my eyes "Could you get any further away?"

We get out the car and he comes and stands next to me. "Well, since there were no spaces, I could not do so"

"What about all these?" I say pointing to the empty spaces as we walk past them.

He's about to say something, when a girl jumps into his arms.

"Four" she calls and I recognize it to be one of the biggest sluts in the school- Molly Atwood.

"Erm, hello" he says

I stand there awkwardly, trying to figure this out. "I didn't know you have a girlfriend, Four" I look down at the floor so he can't see my jealousy.

"Yep" Molly says, and I still don't look up.

"Well, I'll leave you to it" I walk off quickly, feeling my heart break into a million pieces.

Four's POV

We step out of the car and Tris starts teasing me about not parking closer to school. I still can't believe she's talking to me, since she usually ignores everyone around her.

She asks me a question and I'm about to answer when someone jumps into my arms. It's Molly Atwood. She's tried to flirt with me a few times but I'm not really interested in her.

I'm not really sure why she's jumping into my arms but I don't want to drop her on the floor, either.

"Erm, hello" I say, and I'm about to put her down when she grips onto my neck so I can't. I see Tris look down at the ground, but I see a flash on something in her eye. Like hurt. Why would she be hurt? She doesn't even like me.

"I didn't know you have a girlfriend, Four" she says, not looking up at me.

I'm about to answer her when Molly presses her lips to mine, stopping me from speaking. She pulls away and says "Yep" over her shoulder.

Tris nods and walks away, quickly. I drop Molly, suddenly furious. "What the hell are you doing?" I ask

She shrugs "I thought you like me"

"Well no, I don't"

I shove her to the side and run in the direction Tris was heading in.

"Tris?!" I call out.

I spot her in the distance, talking to Christina. She sees me, and so does Christina- who mutters something to Tris and walks away leaving her stood there.

I walk up to her and she looks extremely awkward.

"Tris, I'm really sorry about that"

"About what?" she says looking confused

I pause for a second, looking at her carefully "About what happened next to the car"

She frowns at me and takes a step back "Why would you be sorry about that? It's got nothing to do with me"

"I… just…" I don't actually know what to say to her so I end up stuttering.

"Four" she says, sounding exasperated "I don't care what you do with your life"

And with that, she walks off, her voice echoing through my head. She doesn't care about me. I'm not sure why I thought she would anyway. She never opens up to anyone, never lets them get close. I thought I could change that but my chance is over.

I think she liked me too. But I guess she doesn't anymore.

What am I going to do?

Hey guys, sorry about this short filler chapter but in the next one, I'm going to skip ahead a little so they're going on the trip and it will be longer. Don't worry, I said there was going to be FourTris but it might take a while, so please don't kill me. And you'll find out Tris's back story soon as well. I have it all planned out, that's why I didn't want to give it all away this chapter. Please review ~FourandFred ;)
