Moving to Chicago

Chapter 3

Today I woke up early so I could walk to go to school. I seriously need help with Dauntless Training. Since I have to wear black for school, I put on my black vans, a black sweatshirt and black skinny jeans. I go downstairs, take a muffin and start walking. Why am I bad at Dauntless Training? Muffins is the answer.

I arrive at school 10 minutes early. A lovely couple is making out in front of my locker (note the sarcasm).

I cough. They are not moving. I cough louder.

"Got a problem, stiff?" Number guy asks.

"Actually I do. The locker behind you is mine" I say.

They hesitate then leave. A smirk forms on my face.

I take my books and start walking to my first period.

"Tris!" I hear someone shout behind me. I turn around to see Christina, Lynn, Marlene and Shauna walking towards me.

"So me and the girls are going shopping after class. Wanna come?" Christina asks me.

"Uh... I don't think shopping is my thing" I say.

"Hey, if Christina can make me go shopping then there is no problem with you coming" Lynn says. I laugh.

"Okay I'll come" I say.

"Yay! Meet us at the mall after school!" Christina says. They smile at me then leave.

I press my glasses to my nose and continue my way to my class.

End of school has finally arrived. Well now I don't have a car. I start walking. Few minutes later a car stops behind me.

"Stiff! I knew someone like you couldn't have such a beautiful car. Want a ride?" Four asks me.

I hesitate. If I don't take a ride I'll be late.

"Okay. But no talking."

"As you wish" he says.

I hop in the car. It is silent for few seconds but he can't let his mouth shut.

"Hey could you help me with-" I stop him.

"I said no talking."

The ride was silent.

"I still don't like you" I say getting out of the car.

"Don't worry, me neither. Oh and you're welcome" he says. I don't respond.

"Hey" the girls shouts.

"Hey" I respond.

"Okay we better start right now considerind your... choice of clothing" Christina says looking at me from head to toe.

"Okay" I say more as a question. I feel weird, but I guess a little change won't hurt.
