Chapter 9
~Tris POV~

I set off the alarm and get out of bed. I quicly get ready putting on my new black clothes Chris made me buy and I get out of my dorm with my bag placed on my shoulder. I grab a muffin from the kitchen and look for Caleb who I find on the hall reading the newspaper.

"Morning..." I say frowning.

He looks away from the newspaper to me and smiles, "Morning Beatrice."

"What are you doing?" I ask

"Read the newspaper. What do you think i'm doing?" He asks like I was an idiot.

"Since when do you read the newspaper?" I raise an eyebrow. I mean, really! Since when?!

"Oh... Well... Nevermind! Let's go to school!"

I guess he took Erudite pills this morning...

"Ok..." I say and walk out of the house and he follows me.

We get in the car and drive. Meanwhile, I keep munching my chocolate chip muffin. 10 minutes later, we arrive and I hope out of the car.

"I'll see you later!" He yells and runs to the Erudite sector.

I roll my eyes and chuckle. I can't believe that only one day has gone by and he loves studying and reading and do whatever the nerds like.

I walk to the Dauntless sector and right to my locker. Unluckly, I can't make it there because Four is standing right in front of my locker making out with a girl. I sigh exasperately and I was about to walk away when I bump accidentally onto Lynn.

"Damn! Careful!" She says.

"Sorry... So how are you?" I say.

"Meh... I could be better...but I'm in school so.... What's up?" She asks.

"Oh, nothing... I just can't get to my locker." I say moving my head slightly pointing to Four and that girl.

She looks at them and inmediately walks towards them. "HEY!" She yells and they break apart. "WHAT DO YOU THINK THIS IS? A MAKE OUT SHOW? MOVE YOUR ASSES OUT OF THE WAY!" She pushes them away and they walk away really annoyed. I stare for a while shocked and then I laugh. "That was amazing, Lynn!" I say opening my locker. "Thanks!"

"No problem!" She says nodding. "Hey, I have to go to Literature class... I'll see ya around!"

"See ya!" I say as I close my locker. I walk to art class and the bell rungs just in time.
I see Four on the back talking to the same girl and I sit down next to Chris who was making some sketches.

Tori comes in a few moments later and starts teaching us some drawing techniques. The class goes by very fast and the bell rings again.

I walk out with Chris and head to gym when I stop of my tracks.

"Damn... I forgot my bag" i say "Go...i'll be right there"

"Okay!" Chris says and walks away.

I turn and head to the art class again. I grab my bag and walk out when someone grabs me by the shoulders and pushes me to the locker. 

"Hello Stiff"

Peter

"What do you want?" I ask a bit shocked. 1. because my head terribly hurts because of the stupid lockers. 2. because I was alone with Peter's group looking like they were to beat me up.

"To back off!"

"huh?"

"You heard me. You are good at Gym and you may be also good at the dauntless subject. And guess what? A stiff won't be better than me. So you better not mess up and not do better than me" he warns. We hear a cough and he corrects himself. "Like us, I mean.... Of course... I don't think you will do better at punching... you're just a short girl from-"
