Divergent Dance Academy

Chapter 3

Tris P.O.V

After homeroom, maths and English the girls and I split from the boys and head to ballet. The bell rings, signalling we're late.
Once we get to the rehearsal room, we see everyone's already there including Ms Mathews.
"You're late girls." She says when we walk in. Lynn and I roll our eyes.
"What are you going to do? Put your best dancers in detention?" I emphasise on best as she knows it's true.
"Just go get changed." She grumbles. We go into the changing room, I change into my black leotard, black sweater, skin tights, black sparky leg warmers and my point shoes.
Everyone's at the bar when we come back in. I go to my assigned spot (yes Ms Mathew assigned us spots at the bar), my spots at the front so she can keep an eye on me and so the rest of the class can watch me (not stuck up, she told the whole class).
"40 front leg extensions." Ms Mathews calls out our workout.
"20 arabesque poncho."
"10 plié in first position." We do this at the start of every class and she hasn't bothered to change it.
"20 ronde jambe"
"10 plié in second position."
"20 ballet jumps." The whole class finishes and we start doing our jumps.
We do jetés, grand jetés, sissones, pas de chats and entrechats. Ms Mathews praises and critiques each of us about our jumps and then tells us it's time for turns.
Ms Mathews tells us to do pirouettes, pirouette en dedans, pirouette en dehors, fouettés, grand fouettés, piqué tours en dedans and piqué tours en dehors.
Once we're done Ms Mathews excuses us to go change into our normal clothes.
The girls and I start walking towards the cafeteria when we see the boys up ahead. I put my finger to my lips and point to the boys. They smirk as they know what I'm gonna do.
I start running and jump onto Uriah's back. Uriah screams a high pitched scream as the gang starts laughing.
"Trissy!!" He groans. I slap him as he should know not to call me that.
"I'm hungry." I complain, "To the cafeteria peasant!" 
Uriah starts running to the cafeteria we the gang not far behind. I hop off his back and give him a kiss on the cheek, "Thanks Twinny!"
For lunch I grab a chicken salad, dauntless cake and a water bottle. When I'm at our table I sit down in my usual seat and wait for the rest of the gang. Lynn and Uriah come and sit next to me as usual and then Four's across from me. He smirks as he sees me looking at him and I smirk back.

How do you know Four? Uriah and I start talking through our minds.
What makes you think I know him?
Oh please
Fine we met last night
I cut him off and realise everyone's at the table now.
"Holy shit Tris, are you on a diet or something." Zeke exclaims as his plate is piled.
"Gotta get these abs somewhere, right?" I lift up my shirt and Four's eyes widen.
"And Zekey, I have no idea how you have abs." I shake my head a little.
"So it's time to interrogate Four." Uriah smirks evilly.
"Ooh me first!!" Shauna shoots up.
"Where did you move from?"
"LA." Four answers.
"What dance styles do you do?" Marlene questions.
"All." 
"Are you a virgin?" Uriah jumps in.
"Uriah?!" We all yell at him, he just shrugs.
The bell goes and we all head off to the Jazz rehearsal room. The girls and I split from the boys, going into the change rooms and changing in our jazz clothes. Mine consist of a Nike sports bra, Nike pro shorts and my black jazz shoes.
I head into the room and see that Four is the only one of the gang out.
"Hey." I say walking over to him.
"Hi, dancing partner." He winks as I roll my eyes.
"Oh please, I was going easy on you last night. You couldn't keep up with this." I move my hands down my body and can see that he's checking me out.
"God, could you get any hotter?" Before I can answer, the rest of the gang come and join us.
"What you guys talking bout?" Will asks.
"Just that he couldn't beat this." I move my hands down my body again and the gang laugh.
"Hello class! Please call me Tanya as Mrs Bay sounds way too old." Oh yes Tanya was my second favourite teacher. She does amazing choreography and treats me as a friend not student.
"I couldn't help over hear that Tris was saying that Four couldn't beat her. So let's go." She smirks at us and the class makes a circle around us.

We do everything style of dance, finishing with hip hop. In the end Four's holding me by the waist, just like last night.
"Wow. I think we can call this a tie." Tanya's eyes are wide. No one says or moves and I realise Four and I are really close. I push him away and glare but he just smirks. 
The bell goes and I run to the change room, changing into my hip hop clothes which is a short crop top, white and black hip hop tights and black adidas.
"What just happened?" Lynn comes over to me as I'm not walking with the gang.
"We met last night at a bar. I'm just a flustered alright?" I say likes it's nothing. Lynn gasps.
"Trissy has a crush!!" Her eyes widen.
"I do not. Okay leave it." I scoff at the idea. She puts her hands up in surrender and walks away back to the gang. I glare at the floor as I keep walking. Lynn might be right, I just don't want to admit it. I've been closed off for so long and for this guy to come in and break my wall is NOT GONNA HAPPEN.
"Hey Tori." I sit against a wall and take a few sips of water, waiting for the rest of class to show up. 
"You okay?" Tori asks as she sits down next to me.
"Yeah just confused," I knew I could trust Tori. "I've built a wall and had it up for ages, I don't want to let this guy come and break it."
"You talking about Four?" I nod, "I heard what happened in jazz."
"Already?!" My eyes widen. She nods.
"Thanks for the advice." I give Tori a hug and then the gang come in.

You alright sis?
I nod towards Uriah and run up to hug him.
Does this have to do partly with dad?
I've put up all these walls since him I just can't
I sniff.
Maybe it's time it let someone break those walls.
Maybe...

I kiss Uri in the cheek and go sit next to Lynn. As I pass Zeke he gives me a concerned look and I nod to tell him I'm fine.
"Hi class. Please call me Tori, I hope you all had a great summer break and I hope you've been watching and learning from the videos I've been sending you." The class starts nodding towards Tori which makes her smile.
"Zeke, Four and Tris, you're up. Four I'll show you the video quickly." Four goes over to Tori as Zeke and I get ready for Anaconda. Four comes over and gets in position
"5 6 7 8!!" Tori yells and the music starts.

Four is on the left and Zeke is on the right. It's the first dance!

Applauds fill the air as I sassily walk off.
"Wow Four you picked that up real quick!" Zeke says to him and gives him a high five.
"Okay I want you, Four, to get used to our dances so you will be doing a few today. Oh and Tris I want you to show him the way." I give Tori a quick glare but she just chuckles at me.
"Which one next?" I ask sipping my drink bottle.
"Work From Home." She answers without looking at me. I drop my water bottle as the gang try not to laugh.
"You've gotta be kidding me!" I yell.
"You do it with Uriah and it's not awkward." Christina comments.
"That's because he's my twin and I know he won't actually look but this guy," I point to Four. "Will."
"What are we talking about?" Four asks dumbfounded.
"Come look at the video." Tori calls out to Four.
When he comes back he's smirking but I just focus on the dance.

They are the first dance!

After a few more dances the bell goes and I quickly change into my contemporary clothes.
"Well I certainly enjoyed that class." Four walks up to me but I just walk faster.
