Chapter 1

Erin Tris' POV

As I stepped into the place that I like to call The Dungeon of Dementedness - also known as school - I noticed that there were several groups of girls whispering in the hallways. Whatevah. I made my way to my locker only to find a girl being pressed against it by a tall brown haired boy who's face I cannot see. For a minute or so I just stood there waiting for them to notice me but, as you have probably guessed... They didn't! I was kinda pissed so I shrieked "PDA!!!" Startled, the couple quickly apologized and scurried off somewhere. They didn't really need to apologize but who cares right? Usually most people would be glaring at me and muttering profanities but I'm happy they didn't.

I quickly put put my things in my locker, took some stuff out, ya know the drill. As I turned around to head to class I bumped into my BFFAFLWES Kenzie. I mean that very literally. Like, as I was turning my body around to face the other direction she just appeared out of nowhere like a ninja, might I add and, made me bump into her. "Tris!" She screeched "Have you heard that there is a new dude coming today? Well there is. Actually four new dudes. I suppose they're friends. Maybe they're cute. I hope they are!" Kenzie rambled on. Oh god.

Have I mentioned that I kind of dislike new kids? I find that they always use the fact that they are new as an excuse...For like they're first month. Hey, you can't blame me, it's happened before. Like bish what? I also find that they could jeopardize your spot on any teams, or in any clubs. I know that sounds kind of selfish but you may not even make it on a team that you have been in for the past how many years?!?! Ya just never know. But I suppose that wasn't a worry since they were dudes.

Anywhore, after Kenzie's little rant fest we went to first period's English. Now I don't really have anything against English except for the fact that it bores the hair right outta my head! Like we can read... We can write... What more do we need?! As I got into my usual seat at the back of the class, I noticed a presence sit down in the desk beside mine. I looked over only to find a hot dude staring holes into the side of my skull. Now let me just say... I thought hot dudes had gone extinct. But then here one is sitting right beside me. It's an annoying miracle! When the blue eyed blonde noticed me looking at him staring, he seemed to immediately perk up and put a small smile on his incredibly attractive face. "May I help you?" I asked kind of annoyed. He ran a hand through his quiffed hair, making it messy. But the dude thought it was funny to give me the silent treatment so he decided to just laugh and shake his head. Jerk.

Just 10 minutes before the bell dismisses us a crumpled piece of paper landed on my desk. I uncrumpled it and read the note that was inside. 'My name is Luke.' I looked over to the boy beside me to confirm that the note was from him. He nodded so I wrote back 'Cool.' And I threw the opened paper back at him only to make it drift to the floor. I must shrugged and motioned for him to pick it up. I'm not gonna give him the HONOUR of knowing my name! TMI.

The hot dude who I now know as Luke, threw back the once again crumpled piece of paper. 'Aren't you going to tell me your name?' But as I just finished reading the note the bell rang. I looked back at him and shook my head answering no. The frown that replaced his smile made him look pretty freakin cute. I felt kinda bad so I wrote 'Tris' on an eraser I found and threw it at him, earning me a growl. It hit him in the head but like, who growls?!?

~~~~TIME TRAVEL~~~~

The day had FINALLY ended with me walking home with Kenzie. Did I mention we live together? No? Okay well we do. "I saw you passing notes with that new Luke dude!" She squealed. I just shrugged knowing she was going to try and pry every single piece of info out of my brain. "What did you gu-" I cut her off "He told me his name and I ended up throwing an eraser with my name on it at him." I quickly said signalling that this conversation was over and luckily Kenzie got the message.

After a few more minutes of awkward silence she spoke up. "Did you hear about the party that's going on tonight? Maybe the new guys will be there." She said softly. "And you want us to go." I said knowing where this conversation was heading. She just nodded her head in response grateful that I caught on. "Then we will." I said grabbing her hand in mine, slightly swinging to back and forth and smiles creeped onto both of our faces.
