Tris POV
When I get to the dinning Hall I see Christina, Will, and Al. There is an open spot next to Christina and as I start towards her my breath hitched in my throat. Four sits on the other side. Across from where I was supposed to sit.

I walk over to them and as I sit Will, Al, and four watch me. I gulp and sit. I start to make conversation with them but it was hard when I felt like I was beginning watched. But it wasn't four, so I just brush it off.

I start getting my food because I'm starving. I see cuts of meat in the shape of circles in between round pieces of bread. I arch my eye brow and look at everyone with confusion. Christina chuckles and says, "What have you never seen a hamburger before?"

I shake my head no. When I was in the Abnegation pack, since I was the Omega I didn't get much to eat, but we still only ate plain foods.

"What? Why?" She asked.

"Stiff's eat plain food." I hear his gentle voice speak. I have to focus on Christina so I don't have the urge to collapse right there. I finally grasp enough courage and turn to look at him.

He has jet black hair that is cut short. He has two dark brown bushy eye browns. His eyes are a beautiful deep blue with a hint of dark blue in the right eye. He has a hooked nose. And his lips are thin with a hint of pink that look totally kissable. I sigh internally. Then I snap out it.

"Why do Stiff's eat plain food?" Christina asked I wait for four to answer but he turns to his food and ignores Christina all together. I turn to Christina and say, "We believe that flavor is a sign of selfishness."

"Wow, now I know why you left." Christina said while shaking her head and smirking.

I nodded and look back at my food and say, "Yeah, I left all because of the food."

I see four's lips twitch at my comment. That made my insides do a summer salt. Right when he did that the main doors slam open and everything goes quiet.

Everyone turns towards the commotion and there stood a young man about 18 standing in the doorway. He had two piercings in his bottom lip and an two in his left eye brow. He had dark brown hair and wore all dark clothing.

Everyone was still silent until he glanced around the room and landed on our table. After he started forward everyone went back to what they were doing. I turned away and kept on eating.

The man walked straight towards our table and I just ignored him. He sat next to four and put a hand on his shoulder. He acts like they are friends but from how four is acting the aren't.

"So... You going to introduce me." The man says to four. I watch as four clenches his jaw then he glances at Will and introduces us in order.

"This is Will, Al, Christina, and Tris." He says my name quick and quiet. Like I am supposed to be a secret. The man looks at us and smirks and evil smirk then says to us, "Well. Nice to meet you all." When he smiles the hole where he has his piercings open and make me cringe.

I smile a welcoming smile and turn to my food.

"So Four. How have you been. Alpha has been searching for you." The man says.

"Well Eric, if Alpha Max wants an answer. Then the answer is still no. It always has been." He tells the man, which I guess is named Eric.

Eric grins and turns to look at everyone else's then nods his head.

"Okay four, so I will leave you to your dinner." Eric says as he gets up and leaves​. For scowls silently and glares at his food. I feel curiosity take over as I say, "Are you two friends, or something?"
