If it means a lot to you : a divergent high story

Chapter 2: changes

TRIS

I wake up tired I never feel like I ever get my 8 hours. I get up and I'm the one first up so I go straight to the bathroom. I take a shower dry off and dry and straitened my hair. I put on a dark red off the shoulder sweater, blue ripped jeans, a black beanie and black combat boot. I go down stairs and see my mom cooking breakfast.

"Hi mom"

"Hi sweetie, did you sleep well"

"Yeah I guess" I say when Caleb walks in

"You're father says he'll me home soon and he loves you" my father's been out of town since Sunday he works along side Marcus the possible mayor of Chicago. That guy has always creeped me out, just something about him rubs me the wrong way. My father can be a good guy but a lot of time he's over protective he thinks he knows what's best for me but I'm 17 I'm not a little girl anymore.

After talking at breakfast I grabbed my keys and messenger bad and drove to school. Once I got school I went to my locker. Then I herd feet thumping against the floor getting closer to me.

"Oh my god tris guess what?" Christina said a little out of breath

"You're a lesbian and you've been in love with me for years"

"What? No are you trying to tell me something tris "

"Ha no I just thought the sarcasm might be a good change of pace " I giggled

"Ha very funny but will finally asked me out after like a month of flirting"

I gave her a smile and a congrats and Marlene joined us. We started walking to homeroom when Uriah walked up to us which was kinda weird cause we never talked. "Um hi Uriah"

"Hi tris" then I saw his hand interlaced with Marlene. I looked at Christian wide eyes but we just kept walking

Once we get to homeroom I turn my attention to Marlene "so mar what's with you and Uriah"

"Oh nothing" she said trying to smile innocently

"Come on mar!" Christina pleaded

"Ok, ok I guess where kinda a thing we've flirting with each other since this summer and yesterday he kissed me" she has huge grin on her face. Wow Christina has a boyfriend Marlene has one, I'm starting to feel like a loser, eh it's only boys.

TOBIAS

once I get into music theory I see the only seat left is next to tris. I didn't always hate her, actually in middle school I just made fun of because I liked her and wanted to get her attention,but I guess I took it to far so she started hating me and I just did the same. I sit next to her and Ms.Wu starts talking. "So today we will start are project which consist composing a 30 measure song" I look at the bored and see who I'm partners with the one and only 'tris'

She looks at me and rolls her eyes "I'm not happy as much as you are"

"Well it's not like we have to talk that much just let my fingers speak through the piano" she gave a small smile that was so cute No! Stop it Tobias!

"Well I can't do it today I have work" I say trying to cover the expression on my face

"Yeah I do to so I'll just tell you when it can"

"Yeah here's my number" I hand her a piece a paper with my number and the bell rings.

TRIS

Another end of school another beginning of work. I drive to work ready to get this day over with. I park my car and walk into Bob's

"Hey Alex is Hank here today" Hank is the person that actually owns the store so there isn't a bob, well kinda it was Hank's uncle so he named the store after him.

"Yeah he's in his office, by the way we have new kid coming so you have to train him I have to go and get a few supplies"

"Ok I guess I could show the newbie around" getting a slight chuckle out of her

"Bye I'll be back soon" she gave me a hug and left. I started tuning drums on the show floor when the door opened.

"Hello?" A deep voice called, sounded kind of familiar. I turned the corner where a speaker was the only thing in between me in the person. In standing in front of me was out of every person person that could have been the new employee was four.

"Tris?" He said with I shocked expression

"Um...hi I'm guessing you're the newbie" I said while pulling the sleeves past my hands trying to hide my sweaty hands, I don't know why but when I'm around him I get nervous.

"Uh yeah but it's only for a semester I just need the credit to graduate" he said rubbing the back of his neck was he nervous?

"Oh ok well I'm suppose to show you around I'm guessing you know what drums, guitars, keyboards and basses are so that covers a good part" that gets a chuckle out of him making me smile. We continue going around store and me explaining where everything is and how we run things and introducing him to Hank.

"So there is no Bob?" Four asked

"No he just named the store after his uncle but I thought the same thing when I first started working here too" we kept talking but not really about the store but like about school our friends and me, for some reason he doesn't really talk about himself. I always thought four was a jerk but now I get to see his more human side.

"Ok so any questions?" I ask finally finished after 20 minutes

"Um no seems pretty simple"

"Good, so you can get started on inventory just some drums sticks guitar picks small stuff like that" I show him to the back room

"And just check all the items on the clip board" I try reach for it on the top shelf, then I step one of the shelfs to reach higher. I finally grab it but along with a box of drum sticks that come poring down on me causing me to fall. Someone tries to catch me but fall and I land on top of them. I pick up my head I realize I'm face to face with four.

"Sorry..." I mumble. I we just stare at each other then soon I feel myself leaning in and so is he were only 3 inches away.

"Tris I'm back!" I pull away and start to scramble to my feet

"So um yeah just inventory" I give a small smile. The rest of the day was pretty much awkward, I couldn't look four in the eye and when Alex would talk to me I would give 'uh huh' and 'yeah'. I didn't think it would ever happen but I think I actually have feelings for four.
