City of Chicago High (Divergent)

Chapter 2

Tobias P.O.V.

FYI, everyone is seniors.

Christina just stopped the video chat and I lean back on the couch. I cover my face with a pillow but it doesn't stop the sound of Zeke and Uriah laughing like little school girls.

"Four likes Tris! Four likes Tris! Four likes Tris!" they both chant over and over. I moan into the pillow and throw it at them.

"I don't like Tris!" I say.

"I'm sure you don't. I saw you staring at her this morning at school. When she walked over you lit up and you've acted different all Summer," Zeke says.

"I don't like Tris! You can't change that," I say. They don't say anything. They just raise their eyebrows as if to say 'Okay, now, tell us the truth.' "Fine. I wouldn't call it a crush. I think Tris is kind of hot but that doesn't mean everything. She's my friend and I don't think things need to be changed between us."

"Okay. So, you think Tris is hot. And you like her but you're too scared to ask her out," Zeke says with his eyebrows raised. I know this answer will come back to bite me in the butt. If I say yes, than they will find a way to set us up. If I say no, than they will expect me to ask her out.

Yes! Of course I want to ask her out!

Wait, what?

"Dude, just ask her. The worse that can happen is she says no. And I know seven people who are willing to try to set you two up. You know, like, Friday night at Christina's house," Uriah says.

"Wait. Did I just say that out loud?" I ask.

"Uh, yeah," Zeke says like I'm stupid.

"No. I guess you two get the hard way," I say.

Tris P.O.V.

"What are you two doing?" Christina asks as she walks over next to the door.

"Well, we heard you two talking about boys and we heard Four's name a lot so we decided to listen in," Will says.

"Why are you here, Will?" I ask.

"Well, it isn't for a two person book club. Because that would be just crazy," Will says. Caleb bites his bottom lip and Will blsuhes and looks down at the floor. Christina and I are both trying to hold in laughter. We contain it until we look at each and then we both hunch over laughing.

"He isn't here for book club. He is here for a study group," Caleb says.

"About books?" Christina asks.

"You know what? Forget y'all!" Will says as he walks away. "Oh but do you like Four or not?"

"Um, why do you care?" I ask.

"Because I'm your friend!" he says.

"I mean he's handsome but I don't know that I see him as my boyfriend," I say.

"Yes, I'm sure," he says as he goes into Caleb's room.

Please tell me where you see errors. Also please give me ideas for some truths and dares.
