A/N: So, I'm at a Graduation ceremony for Chinese school, and it is so boring. A few weeks ago, I came up with an idea for a new high school AU. And this was an idea for the first chapter. But to be honest, it's probably not going to be a real story. I just wanted to write while I had to listen to people talk about stuff in Mandarine and I really didn't want to sit there for three hours doing nothing. So here is something to entertain you with. By the way, I almost started crying when I wrote this. You guys might not, but I'm one of those really emotional people that you would probably ever meet. So here's a short story...

Chapter 1

Tris' POV

"Look, I'm sorry. Okay?"

I stay silent while loading my school books into my locker.

"Tris, look at me." He grips my shoulder and forcefully trims me around to look at me. I cry out in pain. He flinches back. "I'm sorry I didn't mean to--"

"Just go." I whisper. "Please." I will not cry, I refuse to cry in front of him.

"I'm sorry." He says again before walking away for good.

It was mid-November and the weather has been dropping drastically the past week. I'm dressed in my boyfriends large sweatshirt and leggings accompanied with a scarf to keep myself warm. What was worse was that I walked to school in the fourty degree weather. My brother Caleb had just turned sixteen the other day earning a car from my parents after he passed his drivers license. For me, I had just turned fifteen three months ago. My brother Caleb, was nine months older than me, but still in the same grade.

"Hey beautiful." A hear someone whisper from behind me. I turn around and force a smile. "Hey, what's wrong?"

"Hi handsome. Nothing's wrong." He nods, unconvinced but then hands me a single rose with a ribbon tied neatly around it. "Oh my god you didn't have to." He pulls a box of chocolates out of his backpack and shoves it into my hands before I can decline.

"Yes I have to. Exactly one year ago, we met at this exact spot roughly around the exact same time." He says looking down at his watch and then to me. Tyler was the perfect boyfriend. Smart, athletic, the perfect combination of cute and nerdy at the same time, don't forget incredibly romantic. He had dark brown hair that is ruffle at the top of his head and turquoise eyes that compliment his face really well. He has two dimples that appear every time he smile. It makes me swoon every time he does. "So I was thinking, I want to take you to the Muse concert in December since you know, both you and I love that band and I think it would be a great opportunity for us because it would be a great thing to do to spend time with each other. I mean you don't have to if you don't want, it is totally up to you. I don't want to pressure you into doing anything you wouldn't like and--"

I kiss him on the cheek. "I'd love to. Thank you so much." He gives me a light smile and take my hand.

"I was talking to my mum the other day, she told me that she'd like to bring you shopping."

"Again? Every time I go with her, I end up feeling so guilty because she spends like a shit load of money on me." Don't get me wrong, I love shopping with Tyler's mom, she's one of those really cool moms, but no, I feel incredibly guilty when she always insist on paying for the clothes I buy.

"She's the CEO of Lions Gate, I'm sure she barely notices if there is a hundred thousand dollars missing in her bank account." I raise an eyebrow.

"Next weekend. But I have to pay for at least half of the stuff." I tell him.

"Okay, I'll tell her. I was thinking the other day-"

"Oh no! The world is going to freaking end." I joke.
