Chapter 3

Disclaimer- I don't own Divergent

Tris P.O.V.

The bell rings and I run out of World History to my locker. I pack my stuff into my Vera-Bradley bag and I throw it over my shoulder and close my locker and lean against is, then Tobias shows up at his locker, followed by Uriah and Zeke. They pack their book bags and talk about tryouts.

I turn over and look at Chrissy who is looking in her mirror hung on her locked door, under the mirror is a little metal holster that has eyeliner, finger nail polish, and a hairbrush handing from the side on a hook. I grab the hairbrush and take my hair band and pull my hair into a high, tight, ponytail. She pulls out another brush and brushes her hair too. We both laugh.

"I'm so excited yet nervous for tryouts." I say.

"Tris, you have nothing to worry about, you're probably going to end up as the cheer team's captain." She says giving me a hug.

"Chrissy, I would definitely make you co-captain if I am captain!" I say with a giggle.

"OMG TRISSY ARE YOU SERIOUS!" She squeals, I nod my head. and she wraps me in another hug.

Four comes up from behind and wraps his arms around me and I giggle, I turn a kiss him on the cheek. I turn to see the girls squealing and shipping me and Four. I laugh, I pull out my phone and take a few pictures of us.

One of him kissing me on the cheek while I'm smiling and another of him with his arm around me. I set the picture from earlier as my wallpaper, I post the kissing one on instagram and I save the last one for my profile picture. I tag Tobias to the picture and he laughs. Tobias re-post's the picture and we take a few pictures for his phone. I update my instagram bio and so does Tobias. Tobias took my phone and added a touch to mine. So I decided to add to his.

We look at the time, time to head to tryouts. Tobias hands me my back, wishes me good luck and makes his way to the football field. Tryouts are on the track while football is on the field. I text him and update his contact to 'tobias(:'.

Good luck bby, also I edited you instagram bio- tris

I see, and thanks, I love you, I know you will do great, I will be watching! I gtg coach is talking, bye! -tobias

I walk into the locker room with Chrissy, Marlene, and Shauna. We change into nike pro's and white t-shirts and put in white bow's. We get to the coaches, sign in and there is probably about 46 girls here, and the team only takes 24. This will be tough.

"HELLO GIRLS! MY NAME IS TORI, I AM THE HEAD COACH! TODAY'S TRYOUTS WILL BE TOUGH. WE WILL START OFF WITH TUMBLING PASSES." Tori says.

"HELLO EVERYONE, I AM THE ASSISTANT COACH, MY NAME IS MYRA! GOOD LUCK GIRLS!" Myra says.

"Okay girls, line up along the sideline of the field, in case any of you fall, the grass won't be as hard as the track!" Tori says.

"Okay let's get started! Who wants to go first?" Tori asks. No one volunteers. I stretch my legs and arms a little. "IF YOU WANT TO BE ON THIS TEAM, HURRY UP AND GO!" Tori yells!

"I WILL GO!" I say loudly, showing I can cheer loud.

"Extra points for Tris, loudness and going first!" Tori says. "GO TRIS!" Chrissy, Marlene, and Shauna yell. I turn and see the whole football team looking at me. Myra turns on the music, the song is Lose Control by Missy Elliot, my favorite tumbling music! The music starts, and I do a hand motion I always do before tumbling. I run as the music picks up.

I do a round off, back handspring, handspring, layout, layout, whip back, and do a full! But I'm not done yet. I do a front tuck into a round off back handspring, layout, Arabian, and then land with a full.

All the boys trying out clap and scream and chant my name, half the girls are clapping and chanting my name and the other half are standing there stunned.

"Tris, that was amazing! Do you have any other passes?" Tori asks.

"Yes I do, I will do it if you want me to!" I say with a peppy tune in my voice. I see Tobias and the other boys still watching me, time to impress with my favorite tumbling pass!

"Whenever you're ready, Tris!" Tori says holding up her iPhone 5c to record me. I nod in her direction and she starts recording. I go all out on this tumbling pass. I see the guys clapping while I flip and I hear Chrissy, Mar, and Shauna chanting my name! I keep going until I have no idea what to do next so I stop. Everyone goes wild! I smile and wink at Tobias.

Cheer tryouts ended 30 minutes ago. Tori and Myra and choosing the girls. I'm sitting in the bleachers with Chrissy, Shauna, and Marlene. Zeke, Will, and Uriah are all trying so we figured we would watch them and cheer them on.

"Hey Tris, can I talk to you for a moment?" Tori asks me from the track, I acknowledge her and meet her there. "So Tris, I was wondering if you would be interested in being the team captain?" She asks me. I stand there, shocked that she asked me. "Tris, you okay?" she asks.

"Yes, I'm okay, I'm just shocked you chose me, thank you. I would be honored to be team captain!" I say. "How many co captains can I have?"

"You can have 3 co captains. We usually do drills so it would be nice to have a captain helping at each drill." I shriek in happiness!

"Thank you so much Tori! I choose Christina, Marlene, and Shauna as the co-captains." I say happily, a little too happily.

"Alright, I will inform the members of the team during lunch tomorrow!" I smile as she says this. "Also, your mom is very proud of you, she was on the cheer team too, captain actually. She chose me as the co-captain. Thats how we became friends, I sent her the video of you tumbling. She is very happy for you! She also said that she will be home in two days from Milan." I hug Tori for a few seconds then let go.

"Thank you, Tori, sooooo much!" I say. She congratulates me and I run back up to the bleachers to sit with the girls. I sit down on the end, but I try to hide my excitement for them tomorrow. Christina notices, because her parents went to this school, they were Candor and they taught her how tell when people are lying.

"Trissy, what happened." She asks, crap, I think of ways not to spill the info. She gives me the look and I blush. I casually pull out my phone and see a BUNCH of instagram notifications. I go to look through my notifications and I see a lot of "aww's" and "you guys are so cute together" comments. I smile at them. I look up to the field to see the guys walking to the benched along the track facing the field, taking a water break.

"Girls, I have an idea." I say this and they all look up from their phones in unison. "Okay, I say we go show the boys some tumbling?" I give them the puppy dog eyes and they all say yes.

We make our way down to the end of the field by the goal and we start tumbling. I hear clapping and cheers as we go. A few other girls that stayed a little later come out and join us on the field. Soon we end up having me and Christina having a tumbling competition.

The guys will decide who wins next with the most applause. The boys are told to hold the judging at the end. Christina goes first, doing an amazing pass, but I know I can beat it. I look over at Tobias smiling at me, I wink at him and we hear a few catcalls. I start running and I start my pass.

I finish my pass and the guys jump up on the bench cheering, I think I won. I walk over to Chrissy and hug her. We go to the benches where the guys are sitting and they get up for us. We deny the offer and they sit back down. They're so sweet. I walk over to Tobias and sit in his lap. I lean my head back and turn my head to the left and kiss him on the cheek.

I hop up and breeze blows it feels sooo good. I realize that it is almost 5:30, they boys are probably wanting something cool because it is hot. I step out in front the boys trying out.

"Its 5:30, do you guys want a milkshake or ice cream from Chick-Fil-A?" I ask. There are 64 boys trying out. They all said yes to vanilla milkshakes so I call Chick-Fil-A and order 72 milkshakes. In about 30 minutes they show up, Christina, Marlene, Shauna, and I carry as many trays as we can while 4 Chick-Fil-A staff members are setting them up on the table.

Coach Amar calls for a 20 minute break before the 2 hour scrimmage and then try outs are over. I grab two milkshakes and straws. I walk over to Coach Amar and Coach George.

"Thank yall for giving the boys this wonderful opportunity so I ordered the team and you two some milkshakes." I hand it to them.

"Thanks Tris!" They both say, in unison. I tell them 'you're welcome' and I walk off. I walk over to Tobias and hit on his lap. He is talking and laughing with Zeke. While he isn't paying attention I stick my straw in his cup and drink his milkshake. Once he notices he laughs at my and takes mine. I fake give him a peck on the cheek.

I whisper into his ear, "Finish strong baby." He kisses me on the lips, a quick peck and then he joins back up in his conversation. I'm really tired after tryouts so I position my head on his side and I drift off into sleep when I feel the bench rumbling from the guys getting up. I shiver as a cold breeze blows through the stadium. The sun has set and the lights are already on. Tobias pulls me into a hug and I shiver again to the breeze.

Tobias takes off his football hoodie that says: "Millennium Prep Football" on the front in the shape of a football and on the big it says 'EATON' in all caps a large number 4. He hands it to me and I slide it on, smelling his scent. I kiss him on the lips and Coach Amar tells the boys to put their gear back on.

"Finish Strong Toby!" I say as he walks on to the field. I pick up his phone off the bench and play on it. I go on his instagram, he now has 68k because of me tagging him in my photo. I laugh. I read some of the comments on the picture of us. I love my fans, they're so sweet.

I walk over to the girls on the end of the bench. They all giggle and squeal because of me wearing Tobias' hoodie.

"Marlene and Shauna, do I follow you two on instagram?" They both shake their heads no. I follow them both and they smile.

"Girls I'm going to go change, we're still wearing tryout clothes." They decide to change also. We go into the locker room and I put on another pair of clothes I have. A gray shirt, dark blue skinny jeans, and a pair of tan Ugg's. I put on Tobias' navy blue hoodie and walk out with the girls.

"I'm going to go put my clothes in my car, you guys coming. Marlene decides to stay here and Shauna will Marlene's clothes with her. We walk to the parking lot, I open my trunk and put my clothes in, I hear Christina talking in the distance. I walk towards the sound when a hand clamps over my mouth. I bite the hand until I feel the skin ripping.

"CHRISTINA HELP" I Scream. "I'm by my ca-" the hand clamps over me again. I press the alarm key and Christina finds me. She screams to Shauna to get help. Another figure grabs Christina from behind and she screams loud enough that you could hear it in the stadium.

I do what my dad taught me, elbow in the nose. I break my arm loose and I elbow my attacker in the nose. I see a tall figure round the corner, I think they are saying something but I can't hear over the car alarm.

All of a sudden my attacker lets go. I hear a groan and see Tobias punching the shit out of someone. He seems me and wraps an arm over me. Then I remember, Christina.

"CHRISTINA, WHERE ARE YOU?" I Scream. I hear Will, he says he has her. Phew. I hug Tobias and I cry. Tobias picks me up and I cling to him like earlier. I kiss him on the cheek and soon his cheek is wet with my salty tears. He lightly pats me on my back.

"Tris, it's okay. I'm here. I'm not going to let anyone get you anymore." I keep crying starting to calm myself. "Tris look at me." He takes his and a takes my chin, still with one hand has a firm, strong hold on me. I look at him, and our lips collide. I kiss him more passionate than I have today. I begin to place kisses down his neck and a low moan escapes him.

I pull away and giggle. I look at him in his dark, deep, beautiful eyes. "Tris, I promise I will protect you from anyone or anything that tries to hurt you. I promise." A smile creeps its way onto my face. Even in bad times Tobias makes me smile.

"I love you, Tobias, a lot. I missed you for so long and now we're back with each other. The day I found out you left I laid in your yard and cried for you, constantly calling your name, hoping you would come back. I also watched Toy Story 3, part of my present from you. That night, I promised myself I would come back for you, and I did. Tobias, I love you more than words can describe." I say, tears filling my eyes.

"Tris, you don't understand how much I missed you. My mom got cancer and we moved to a place where she could get better treatment, and it saved her. We moved back here into a neighborhood, I wanted to go back to our old school to surprise you, but my parents refused and they sent me here. Tris, I love you to the moon and back, I love you, Tris and never forget." Tobias says. He kisses me, I'm still in his arms. Gosh, he is strong, then I remember he has to get back to tryouts.

I cry about what my attacker tried doing to me. Tears flow out of me like a river of sorrow.

"To.. To.. Toby.. You need to… get back to.. tryouts…"

"Not until you tell me what happened." He says running his fingers through my blonde hair. "Tris, talk to me, what did this person do?" He runs his thumb over my knuckles making circles with his free hand.

"They… they.. they touched me.." I finally get it out. He tenses as I say this. I cry more.

"They touched you?" He asks me, his tone cold. I nod

"Not like that, they laid their hands on me, they tried to strangle me." I cry out. He takes his other hand and gently presses my head down into the crook in his neck. I obey and he starts walking towards the stadium. When we get to field level, they boys crowd around us. Tears still flowing down my cheeks.

Chrissy runs up with Marlene and Shauna. Tobias tells everyone what happened, how we were ambushed in the parking lot. Everyone tries to comfort me, but it doesn't work. I just want to go home.

"I want to go home." I mutter. Tobias pats my back lightly. I dry my tears off his face and mine. I kiss his cheek. He turns to me and kisses me on the cheek, it really calms me.

I hear someone say something about me, "Why is she such an emotional wreck, is she on her period, Alex?" They both laugh. "I don't know Thomas. But you're right, she is acting like an attention whore." They both laugh.

"Let me down, now." I whisper into Tobias' ear. He does so and I closer crowd moves out of the way. I walk up the two.

"I'M SORRY IF I'M UPSETTING YOU. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME TODAY SOMEONE HAS TRIED TO KILL ME. HOW ABOUT YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP AND DON'T TALK ABOUT MY PERSONAL THINGS!" I scream in their faces. Alex laughs. I clench my fist and pack a punch into his nose. I hear a crack and blood pours out of his nose. Alex starts crying drastically.

"Hey Alex, stop being such an emotional wreck and an attention whore. It looks as if your nose is on its period. How do you like them apples, beotch." I say and walk away. All I hear is "oh dude burrrnnn." and "Oh shit dude she told you."

I walk up to the bleachers and sit down, cooling off. The girls come over to me along with Coach Amar.

"Tris, are you okay? I know you've been through a lot today. Alex and Thomas have been dicks to everyone trying out so far, they're not being team players. They are not getting on the team now, what they did was rude and not the type of behavior we encourage here." Coach Amar says.

"No, Coach, that's not fair, just let Tobias get on them during the rest of the scrimmage, then follow through with your plan." I laugh he laughs too. We both high-five and then he gets up to finish tryouts.

Football tryouts and the boys find out who made it. With no surprise, Tobias made the team. He actually did so well, and now that this is Tobias' third year playing for Millennium, Coach Amar made Tobias team captain. I am very proud of my little Toby!

Tobias walks up to me at the bleachers and I jump up at him. I wrap him a hug with my legs and arms wrapped around him. I plant a kiss on his lips. He deserves it. He sets me down and we lace our fingers together. We walk to my car and he gives me one last kiss.

He turns to walk away when I ask, "Tobias, will.. you come home with me?" We walks back up to me and he kisses my forehead. I grin. "So, Toby, will you?"

"Of course I will, anything for you princess." We walks over to his car. He has a silver BMW that is a convertible. I pull out of the school and drive to my house and he follows me. We are there in about 10 minutes. I open the garage and I park my car in it, leaving Tobias some room for his car. He pulls in and I close the garage door.

"Tris, I didn't know you lived in this neighborhood, I live down the street from here! You moved in a few years ago, right?"

"Yes I did and Tobias, that is awesome, now we can hang out more!" I say with a squeal. I run up to him and wrap myself in his warm embrace. I grab his hand and pull him with me upstairs into my room.

"The bathroom is down the hall on the right, take a shower if you want." I say walking over to the closet pulling out pajamas.

"That sounds really good about now." he says with a smirk. I show him where the bathroom is, he goes in and I hear the water turn on, I walk into Caleb's old room and get Tobias some dark blue pajama pants with a black tank-top; I also grab some deodorant and some boxers for him.

I open the bathroom and set the clothes on the counter. I open the cabinet and pull out a new toothbrush and a large towel. I close the door and go to my room. I take a very quick shower, and put on my pajamas. I blow-dry my hair and brush it, then walk around looking for Tobias.

I walk to the bathroom door and knock on it," Tobias, do you need anything in there?" He opens the door and walks out in the clothes, he looks cute. I smile up at him.

"Do you have a razor and shaving cream?" he asks me, as he rubs his chin. I nod and walk to Caleb's room and grab a new razor and a bottle of cream. I hand it to him and he smiles. "Thank you, Tris."

He goes into the bathroom and I follow him in. I wrap my arms around him from behind. I grab the shaving cream bottle off the counter and put some in my hands and he looks at me. I take my hands and rub his face slowly putting the cream on. I then wet the razor and begin to make slow strokes down the side of his face. I really love my Tobias.

I finish his face and he rinses to get any leftover hair off. "All done, are we." I say with a giggle. I pull his close to me; I stand on my tiptoes and place a kiss on his lips. I pull away and lower myself and grab his hand and pull him towards my room. I get in the bed and lay down. He stands there confused. I pat a spot on the bed and he comes and lays down next to me.

"Okay, Toby checklist, shower, shaving and deodorant. Did you do all that?" I giggle waiting for a response. Tobias gets up and goes to the bathroom and comes back. He gets back in the bed. "Much better" I say as I drastically inhale.

"I had fun today, Tris. You are good at shaving, I guess." he says with a chuckle. I laugh as I bury my face into his chest. I look up at him and kiss his cheek, nice and smooth. "Tris, I have to say, you're an amazing cheerleader! I was very impressed with your.. whats the word.. flipping. Yea, and so was the rest of the boys trying out." He says with chuckle.

"The word is tumbling, and thank you. I have quite the football player, here." I say as I tap his chest. He takes the tank top off and sets it on my chair.

"Tobias, it's okay if you don't want to wear the pajamas, make yourself comfortable. Just make sure you have boxers on. Also I must say you're really hot, like damnn. I love your muscles and abs." I giggle a little. He takes the pajama pants off and sets the pants with the shirt. I press myself closer to him, burying my head in his chest. I love him. He puts his arms around me, tightly, but not too tight. I feel safe.

"I love you, Tris. I love you, more than words can describe. He says kissing my forehead. I grin.

"I love you too, Tobias, we need to get a lot of sleep, you have football tomorrow. Also I'm very proud of you for making the team, captain." I say, while he gently rubs my arm. I fall asleep in his arms, I know I'm safe.
