Chapter 50
Last time: That just seems a little too... Cliché.
Present:

- Flashback -

It's Christmas morning! I wake up to Caleb slamming his door close, running to my room, opening my door and screaming "MERRY CHRISTMAS!" at the top of his lungs. I laugh. When we were kids, Caleb and I used to try and wake up before the other on Christmas Day and scream, waking the person who was asleep. I would always lose because Caleb has an internal alarm clock that goes off before I wake up.

"Someone's excited." I say in between laughs. Caleb laughs too.
"Come downstairs. There are presents!" Caleb says, his face lighting up like a child's. He than sprints down the stairs. I laugh and follow him down.

I walk into the living room and see everyone seated around the tree with an empty spot in between Caleb and Tori. I sit down.
"This one is for Caleb." My mom says while handing him my present. He opens it and finds some nerdy book that he has been talking about since the first day of winter break. He hugs me.

We proceed with this process until there is only one present left. Nobody knows who it's from. My mom reads the card. She looks at me.
"This one's yours, Tris." She says. Who is it from?

It's a small box with green wrapping paper and a red bow on it. I open it and find a small black box. If this is a prank where I just open a bunch of boxes I will be mad. That's a lie. If this is a prank I will be extremely relieved. I open the black box and see and necklace sitting in it.

The necklace is silver all except for a dark blue jewel. Dark blue. I gasp. I know who it's from. I shoot Tori a look. She smiles at me. That's how it got under the tree.
"Tori?"
"Yes. It is." She responds confirming my fear.

Four got me this necklace.

"It really is quite pretty. I say you give it a chance." My mom says. I know to my dad and Caleb this seems like an innocent phrase but my mom, Tori and I can see the real meaning.
"Really?" I ask. Tori and Mom look at each other.
"Really." They say together.

I put the necklace on.

- Flashback Over -

Winter break is over and I'm back at school. I took my moms advice and gave the necklace a chance. I chose to ignore the true meaning of her words.

It's the middle of science and I'm so bored. I truthfully hate science and Jason staring at me is freaking me out. The bell rings and I get my stuff together and head towards the door. I am blocked by Jason.

"Tris. I need your help with something." He says to me. I roll my eyes.
"What?" I ask with a lot of attitude. He grimaces.
"Tris, I'm sorry. I messed up. I'm not asking to have you back but I am asking for your forgiveness." He says sounding sincere.
"If I forgive you, can I slap you at any time for no reason?" I ask.
"Sure." I slap him.
"Okay. Now what do you want?" I ask. He takes a deep breath.
"I like a girl." I laugh. "No. For real. I like really really like this girl. Her names Lindsey and she's a year above us. I've seen you talking with her best friend and I was wondering if you could set us up?" He asks. I consider it: he sounded like he liked her more than me (which doesn't really offend me) and I sort of know her. Why not?
"Okay. On one condition: you cannot break this girls heart intO a million pieces like you did with mine. Or else I will punch you in the nose again." I say with a threatening look. He nods.
"Thanks, Tris." He says before walking away.


Tris and Jason have made up! We are getting to the end! Note that you are supposed to be singing this bit! I just posted a sucky one-shot! I did yard work this morning!

Okay, you can stop singing now! I've decided since the last chapter that I will do a SYOC for Dauntless initiation! I've only made one SYOC before and it was a Hunger Games one! It was the first thing I ever posted on Fanfiction! I took it down though because nobody submited anything :(! I really don't want to relive that experience so if you see I posted a SYOC please submit one!

460 reviews please! When I first started this story I was hoping for 50, maybe 60, reviews on it. Total. Thank you so much for exceeding my hopes! You guys are so awesome! Sorry that this chapter sucks so much!

QOTD: If it was mandatory for you to participate in a talent show, what would your talent be?

My answer: Since I seriously lack talent, I'd probably play a song on the piano.
