Oh my Gosh! I am sorry I have not updated in a while kind of!
I tell you, I don't like to take that long at all!
canadianbanana: Fall Out Boy is pretty amazing, huh?! They're my favorite band, too! What's your favorite song of theirs? I really like Fourth of July, Thanks For the Memories, The Kids Aren't Alright, Immortals, and Favorite Record! They're some of my favorites! Sorry the last chapter was short; I'll work on making them longer. Thank you for the review and all of your support; you've been super supportive since the beginning of the story!
foreveramused: First if all, I'd like to say: I really like your name on here! It sounds very bright, if that makes any sense. I'm glad that you like this story, and I bet you are a great writer! Do you have any stories? Let me know; I'd love to read them!
JodiCatherine: I just don't know what to say. I can't say anything, because if you do happen to be correct, I don't want anyone else to know what's going to happen, and if you do happen to be incorrect, I don't want everyone who thinks the same thing as you do to know that they could be wrong and start trying to think up other theories . . . Sorry I can't say much about it! Thank you so much for your review and your support in this story; it means a lot to me!

Soccerdog17: I know: Fall out Boy rocks, right?! They're my favorite band, too! No, I haven't seen the videos, but I'll be sure to check them out! Those songs are great! I love all their music, too. I haven't listened to Panic! at the Disco before, but now I definitely will! The other bands you mentioned are great, too. Thank you for the review, support, and music ideas; I'm so excited to listen to Panic! at the Disco!
Here's the next chapter; I hope you all enjoy it lots!

Wearing His Jersey
Chapter Five
Tris' P.O.V.
When "Favorite Record" finished, I scrolled down through the suggested songs. I didn't see any I wanted to listen to. I typed in: Fall Out Boy: "Centuries" and waited for my phone to load. When it did, the music filled my ears. I closed my eyes, sat back, and listened.
Du du du du-du du du
Du du du du du-du du du
Some legends are told
Some turns to dust or to gold
But you will remember me
Remember me for centuries
"Beatrice!" I heard. I pulled my earplugs out and held them in my hand.
"Yes?"
"How long do you plan on staying awake?" my mother asked.
"Um . . . I don't know. Why?"
"I just don't want you to be up for too long; you need to sleep. Go to sleep soon, okay?"
"Okay."
"All right, I'm going to bed."
"Goodnight! I love you!"
"I love you, too." I put my earphones back in my ears and immediately recognized where the song was now at; it wasn't far from where I had left it.
Come on, come on and let me in
The bruises on your thighs like my fingerprints
And this is supposed to match
The darkness that you felt
I never meant for you to fix yourself
I pressed the 'Pause' button on my screen. That part got to me every time; I want to know what had happened with these people, what had happened to make someone have to write those lyrics. I want to know, but I doubt that I'll understand soon. I've thought about it a few times before, and I want to understand these lyrics. I believe the lyrics are the heart of any song, they tell the whole story, but the real story has a hidden meaning, beneath all the fame of a song.
I pressed 'Play'.
And I can't stop 'til the whole world knows my name
'Cause I was only born inside my dreams
One of my earplugs fell out; I quickly put it back in.
And you're a cherry blossom
You're about to bloom
You look so pretty, but you're gone so soon
We've been here forever
And here's the frozen proof
My phone vibrated in my hands.
I could scream forever
We are the poisoned youth
We'll go down in history
Remember me for centuries
As the song finished, I clicked on my text messages, and saw one from an unknown number.
Hey, Tris! it said.
Um . . . who the heck are you? I sent the stranger. A few seconds later, there was a response.
It's me: Four! Who did you think it was?
I don't know . . .
Well, when you figure it out, let me know. I laughed.
'Kay. I will.
All right. Well, I just wanted to make sure I had the right number. It is you, right, Tris? I laughed again.
Yeah. It's me. Don't worry.
I wasn't worried.
How did you even get my number, anyway? I asked, curious.
Uriah gave it to me.
Where'd he get my number?
I'm not sure. Don't ask him, though! He'll be mad that you asked him about it; he'll be embarrassed.
Okay. But quite honestly, I'd like to see uriah embarrassed! It'd be interesting . . .
Probably. Just ask him how many times he and Marlene have kissed. He will definitely blush, every time.
Wait, why would he be embarrassed if I asked him how he got my number? I sent.
I don't know. He just told me he would. came a couple minutes later.
Oh. Okay.
What are you doing, Tris?
What do you mean? I'm just at my house.
Do you want to meet up?
Now?
Yeah, when else?
Oh, well, no, thanks though. It's just too late at night. What about tomorrow?
Works for me. came a few seconds later.
Okay. Where do you want to meet up?
That's up to you.
What about the ice cream shop downtown? The new one. I sent. It took a few minutes for the reply.
Actually, why don't we meet up behind the school after school tomorrow? By the big tree. Then, we can go to the ice cream shop.
Works for me.
Alright, see you tomorrow.
Okay. Bye.
Bye. he sent. I set my phone down on my nightstand and finished getting ready for bed. When I lied back down, my phone vibrated. I checked it and saw another message from Four.
Just please don't mention it tomorrow. I don't want anybody else to come with us.
Okay. I returned my phone to its place beside my bed and turned out my light that was on my nightstand next to me.
