Secretly Famous

The Café

Tris's POV:

The next day Four came and picked me up at noon, and we drove to the café to meet our friends. I texted him my address the night before.

"Hey beautiful!" Four shouts out the car window when I am walking over to the car.

"Hey handsome!" I yell back making him chuckle.

"Hop in!" he says.

I open the door and hop into the passenger seat.

"I get why you haven't invited any of our friends to your house yet," he says while gaping at my gigantic house. "It would definitely give away the fact that your mom is a famous superstar."

He starts backing out of the driveway.

"Can I ask you something?" I say to him.

He nods so I continue. "Why is your nickname Four? Why don't you want anyone to call you by your real name?"

"Four is the number on my soccer jersey. Always has been always will be."

"Oh," I say.

"I don't want people to know my real name because it associates me with my family."

I am silent as I wait for him to continue. After a long pause he says,"Call me Tobias."

"What?" I ask.

"My name. It's Tobias." he repeats. "But only call me that when we're alone."

"OK Tobias," I say testing out the name. I like it.

We pull into the parking lot of the café. Tobias quickly jumps out of the car and as I am looking through my purse to double check that I have money he opens the car door for me to get out.

"I'm your girlfriend not a princess," I say stepping out of the car.

"You're my princess," he replies.

"Yeah, a princess of disaster," I scoff.

"Tris! Four!" shouts Christina from across the parking lot with Will. Always the subtle one of the group.

I wonder if Will and Christina are dating yet. Christina told me she liked Will at track tryouts, but I'm not sure about Will. I think he likes her though because of the way he looks at her like she is the only girl in the world. Also, yesterday in candor or dauntless he rated Christina a nine out of ten. He said I was a nine too, but I'm pretty sure that was to cover up the fact that he liked Christina.

Tobias takes my hand and we walk over to where they are standing waiting for us at the front door.

"Hey!" I greet them.

They say hello back and we all walk together in the café. We see that Zeke, Shauna, Uriah, Marlene and Lynn are already there and go join them at their table. I order a coffee and we start talking about the upcoming sports events. Everyone here made it on all of the teams we tried out for. The first girls soccer game is this Friday at three and the boys soccer game is after that. The first track meets aren't until next Tuesday.

We all just talk for the next 45 minutes and I feel my phone vibrate. I open it to read my text message. To my surprise it's from my mom.

(Tris is regular and her mom is italics)

Hey honey! How's everything going? Just wanted to let you know we will be having a barbeque next Saturday at our house.

A barbeque? Who is coming?

Your brothers are coming to visit for the weekend and I have Saturday off of work. Invite your friends.

OK. See you Saturday. Love you. 3

I love you too.

"Hey guys? Do you want to come to my house next Saturday for a barbeque?" I ask.

"Sure! Sounds great! " everyone says.

Tobias gives me a questioning look.

"I should get going," Tobias announces.

We both stand up to leave and say bye to our friends.

When we get in the car Tobias looks at me and says, "so you're going to tell them who your mom is then?"

"Yup," I say. "They were going to find out eventually anyway. I only kept it a secret for this long because it felt nice to be a normal teenager."

"I get it," he says.

"So are you coming to the barbeque?" I ask. "My mother can meet you. "

"Why not?" says Tobias. "It'll be fun."

"Great!" I say.

Then we arrive at my house. Tobias gives me a peck on the lips and I climb out of the car. I hope finding out about my mom won't change the way they think of me. Instead of the quiet, athletic, singer girl I'll be seen as the rich, popular, spoiled brat. But my friends wouldn't think of me that way. Would they?

A/N how was it???? Ik it's a bit short, hopefully the next chapter will be longer,  I haven't up dated in so long because I've been writing the other chapters and fixing them, and school just ended two days ago so I am juggling a few things at once, along with some family problems. I hope you enjoyed it!! Review :)
