[ The next morning; in the bus ]
"May I ?" a soft-voice speaking to Rebecca.
Rebecca look up and noticed Tris, standing, and waiting for an answer.
"Tris ? What are you doing here in this bus?" asked Rebecca.
"Let me sit first then we'll go on from there", said Tris as he slowly sit next to Rebecca.
"Are you ... are you stalking me?" asked Rebecca, with an unsure tone voice.
Tris coughed. "No. Why would I? I lived around the neighborhood here. What a coincidence that we're always meeting up with each other, like we're fated to be together, don't you think so?"
Rebecca was unsure about his answered but remain silence afterwards while just looking at the window.
"So ... my text. Have you read it yet?" asked Tris.
"I have...", said Rebecca to Tris.
"So? What is it gonna be?" Asked Tris.
Rebecca feeling unsure and answered back with a small sigh.
[ Lincoln Heights; Physical Class ]
*BELL RING*
"Everyone have 10 seconds to choose a partner for our next activity here. Starting... NOW!" Mr. Rock shouted, with a whistle blower.
Rebecca was looking around for Lucy since Lucy is also in the same physical class with her but before she even do so, Tris grabbed Rebecca. "You're my partner from now on".
Rebecca shocked, "Huh. Why me?".
Tris smirked with a smile.

"Rebecca, about my question from earlier..?", asked Tris, holding onto the ball.
"I told you so, give me times to fully think about it first", said Rebecca.

Rebecca look at Tris and then back at the opponent again, "Focus on the game and not on me, will you?"
Tris shines a smiled on his face, "If we win, let's go on a date together."
"A date?! Are you kidding me right now?" asked Rebecca, still focusing on the game.
"Wanna bet?" said Tris.
"And if we lose?" asked Rebecca.
"No dates." said Tris.
"Fair enough to be a bet", said Rebecca,
