I gasp as I wake up by the continuos honking from Christina's car. Its the first day of school and I forgot to set off my alarm. Great.
"I swear if we get late like last year I will pull off every hair on your head" she screams through the car.
"Im coming!" I yell through the window to Christina. I open my closet so I can find an outfit. I just grab a pair of leggings and a grey hoodie. I literally shove a couple of notebooks in my backpack as I run down the stairs as fast as I can. I grab a granola bar and my shoes while I run outside the house barefoot. Christina opens the car door for me as I sit and relax. Well that was fast. I sigh as I wear my shoes inside the car, because I know that if I wasted more time, Christina would of left me. I tie my shoes and hold the granola bar on my mouth.
"Did you even put any make up on?" She asks and I shake my head. "Not even mascara?"
"I didn't have any time" I say with the granola bar on my mouth. She groans and throws a little hand bag.
"Help yourself" she says looking at the road "You look like you just woke up from hell" she says laughing and glancing at me. I shake my head laughing as I lean on the car seat after I tie my shoes.
"Well we are going to hell do I guess it doesn't matter" I say laughing as I un-zip the bag. I get the mascara first as I start applying it to my lashes.
"Lets hope this year we can get any of the popular guys to like us" she says smirking.
I laugh asking "Who for example?" She shrugs smiling.
"Well that Will guy, the one that transferred last year? He is kinda cute" she says grinning.
Will transferred to our school last year. He is handsome and he immediately became part of the populars. Christina has been wanting to be one of the popular kids since I met her, but not everyone becomes popular I guess. She is really pretty, gut that isn't the only thing you have to have to be popular. Honestly I don't even know how people do get popular. For example Tobias Eaton. He has been popular since I can remember. We were in kindergarten together. He was the king there too. Also in elementary school, middle school and now of course, in high school. I know he is my father's co-worker's son. I never knew him personally though. We used to go at the Eaton's house for dinner, but Tobias never sat with us. He always stayed locked up in his room. Tobias is one of the jocks. Every girl dreams and begs that one day, he will ask them on a date. He has never dated a girl, never. Thats why everyone keeps dreaming to be his 'first love'.
"What about you? Do you like anyone?" Asks Christina. I shake my head.
"If Dylan O'Brien counts then yes" I say and she chuckles. Its not like people in my school aren't attractive, because the are. But they are all jackasses and rude as hell. Im just waiting to find the one. The one that actually cares.
"Seriously? Not even one of them" she asks and I shake my head. "Why?"
"Because they all are manwhores" I say laughing. She parks the car on the parking lot and I sigh putting back Christina's make up in her bag. We get out of the car and now I see what she is wearing. She is wearing a tight blouse that goes to her mid thigh, so her belly button in visible. She wears a skirt that goes to her knees and a pair of tights. She actually wore pretty clothes, and I look like a dead raccoon. We both laugh when we see each other's outfits.
"You have to be kidding me" he says laughing. "I have an extra pair of clothes in my bad. C'mon" she says and I follow her to the girls bathroom. She hands me a pair of tight jeans and a pastel pink shirt with a cardigan. I thank her and go into one of the cabins.
"Ill wait for you outside the bathroom. It stinks in here" she says and closes the door. I wear the clothes she gave me carefully, trying not to dirty them. I hear the door open again and hear footsteps. First I think its Christina, but then I realize there are two people.
"So who are you up to this year?" One of them asks. I recognize that voice as Lauren.
"Four Eaton" the other voice – Nita – says loud and clear. Four. That's what he calls himself, what everyone calls him. I think Im the only one that knows his real name is Tobias, because that our fathers work together, Ive heard a lot about him. He never liked being called that. I don't know why.
"Do you have any competition over him?" Lauren asks. Nita sighs.
"Well, there is this one girl. I heard their group talk about her. They still don't know who she is yet" she snorts "Tough I've noticed him checking out this girl. Don't know her name yet. She is just like a twelve year old" Nita groans in disgust.
"She is twelve?" Lauren asks.
"Of course not you dumbass!" Nita snaps "She is flat. Flat like an iron and short like a toddler" Nita laughs. "Though I don't get why Four wouldn't want to date me after all. I am the prettiest on the school and the most likable"
The bell rings and they rush outside. I embroil my clothes in my backpack as I run to class. First I have English. I reach the class and I sit down next to Christina. She smirks as I sit down.
"Guess what?" Christina asks squealing. She points to her left slowly under her desk and I see Will sitting next to her. I grin laughing and high-five-ing her. She leans closer and whispers in my ear "He sat next to me. I am not the 'creep'" she says and I laugh. I give her a thumbs up.
I sigh and take out my books from my backpack. I set them perfectly on my desk and take out my phone. Apparently class starts in five minutes. The bell that rang was the 'warning' bell. I take the small little ear phones and stuck them in my ears as I put on the song Adventure of a lifetime by Coldplay. I love that song. I keep turning on the volume, but the song seems muffled. I hear a few laughs and take off my earphones. I forgot to plug the earphones in. Great. I sigh and immediately pause the song as I cover my face with my hands. Christina just laughs so hard she almost cries. The whole classroom stares at me like Im crazy. Apparently we don't have the same music taste. I feel a tap on my shoulder and I turn back. Tobias sits there smiling sadly and says "You listen to Coldplay?" He asks and I nod slowly. He smiles brighter as he replies "Me too" I just smile in response and turn forward. That is literally the one conversation we have had in years, and I didn't even speak. So is that even called a conversation? I don't know. But at least that made me feel better. Christina just stares at me with wide eyes smirking.
"You go girl" she says and I shake my head laughing. I shove the phone and earphones in my backpack as the bell rings and the teacher enters the room.
She starts talking and talking but I don't listen to a word she says. Its the first day of school, what the worst that could happen? I play with my pencil on the desk, tapping it over and over again, creating the rhythm of the song I accidentally played out loud.
"Who the hell is making that noise?!" The teacher yells loudly grabbing my attention. No one speaks and I sit in fear. "Who?" She repeats angrily. I stutter but I hear someone stand up behind me.
"It was me" Tobias says and I turn behind in shock. He just took the blame for me. Tobias is the teacher's favorite, so she just sighs.
"Please don't let it happen again Eaton" she says "If it happens again, I will have to give you detention. There is no singing in class"
He apologizes and and sits down again. I slowly turn forward with my eyes wide open. I can not believe Tobias Eaton got the blame for me. Why did he though?
Im putting too much thought into this. He was just being nice because he knew the teacher wouldn't yell at him. Or its just one of his friend's dares. He and his group play this game called 'Candor or Dauntless' which is basically the game 'Truth or Dare' with cooler names.
After what seems like forever, the bell rings. I grab my books and run out of the classroom and go to the girl's rest room. The bathroom is like my and Christina's secret Have To Talk place. We know when to see each other every time, so we don't have to remind each other. After a few seconds she comes in squealing.
"That did not just happen!" She screams jumping up and down. I laugh at her fan-girl-ness. "He totally like you!" She says and I laugh even harder. Tobias Eaton? Tobias Eaton, the coolest and hottest guy in school, liking Tris Prior? That's a mean joke.
"Nice one Chris" I say.
"Im serious!" She says. "And I know you like him too"
"I literally had one conversation with him in years and that means that I like him? No." I reply. I honestly do not like him. I can not deny that he is handsome, or hot, but I don't like him. Maybe he is a good person, but I see him differently. Maybe because he is just a part of the 'Cool Kids'. Whatever it is, I don't like him. If I liked someone, they would have to do a lot more than to just stand up for me and have a conversation with me only once.
