Tris P.O.V

I wake up to my alarm clock and groan. School again today. I go into my closet and grab a sweatshirt and sweatpants. I go downstairs and my mom hands me a muffin as I walk out. I smile at her.

"Bye!" She yells as I walk out. I get into my car and start driving towards school. As I'm driving, I see Uri walking. I pull over and roll down my window.

"Need a ride?" I ask. He smiles, nods his head, and gets in. I pull out and continue driving.

"So why we're you walking?" I ask him.

"Zeke and I had one of our usual fights last night. He left before I even woke up." Uri explains.

I park and we walk into school. We go separate ways to our lockers. I get to my locker and see Chris and Will at her locker.

I go up to my locker and get my books. We talk and then Will leaves to go to his locker. Chris and I go to 1st hour and sit in the back with Shauna.

{ Time lapse ~ Lunch }

We sit down at the table and are the first ones there. We talk as we eat our lunch. I feel hands on my eyes and smile.

"Uri what are you doing?" I ask. He takes his hands off and sits down facing me.

"How'd you know it was me?" He asks. I shrug and take a bite of my food.

The rest of the squad gets to the table and we talk for awhile. Uri taps my shoulder and I look over at him.

"You wanna come to another performance after school?" He asks. I nod and smile at him.

After school Uri and I go out to my car. He gets into the driver seat.

"Hey it's my car" I say.

"You don't know where we're going though" he says. I shrug and get into the passenger side. He drives to some concert/club place for teens. We go in and go backstage. Uriah and his band check in and go to get ready.

"I'll be out there" I yell to him. He nods and walks off. I go find a table to stand at and wait.

Right now playing is some other band. I can't tell who it is, but they aren't very good. A couple minutes later Uri and the other boys walk on stage.

"Hello, well be playing a song I wrote called, Thinking Out Loud" he says. They start playing.

Verse 1
When your legs don't work like they used to before
And I can't sweep you off of your feet
Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love?
Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks?

And, darling, I will be loving you 'til we're 70
And, baby, my heart could still fall as hard at 23
And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe just the touch of a hand
Well, me-I fall in love with you every single day
And I just wanna tell you I am

Chorus
So honey now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are

Verse 2
When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades
And the crowds don't remember my name
When my hands don't play the strings the same way
I know you will still love me the same

'Cause honey your soul could never grow old, it's evergreen
And, baby, your smile's forever in my mind and memory
I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways
Maybe it's all part of a plan
Well, I'll just keep on making the same mistakes
Hoping that you'll understand

Chorus
But, baby, now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Place your head on my beating heart
Thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are

So, baby, now
Take me into your loving arms
Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars
Oh, darling, place your head on my beating heart
I'm thinking out loud
That maybe we found love right where we are
Oh, baby, we found love right where we are
And we found love right where we are

Everyone applauds and Uri bows sarcastically. I smile looking up at him. He motions for me to come up. I crawl onto the stage and run over to him. I hug him and rest my head on his shoulder.

A/N yay update!

Omg I saw Insurgent last night and it was like, feels.

It wasn't very much like the book. At all

Peter was the best part. His sarcastic one-liners are the best.
