Divergent High

ｔｈｉｒｔｙ－ｓｅｖｅｎ

I wake to my phone buzzing on the nightstand. Who would be calling me at 12:30 in the morning?! I grab the phone and press the answer button. I put the phone to my ear.

"Hello?" I say while yawning.

"Tris, were you sleeping?" I hear Christina say.

"Yes, uh, I was. Now if you mind-"

"Tris, I need you to answer something, okay? You've been gone for two weeks, and Four won't tell anyone where you are. What happened between you two? Whenever we ask him where you went he just says, 'She's not my business anymore.' What's that supposed to mean?"

"Ok, Christina, are you with the gang?"

"Yes," she answers.

"Is Four there?"

"No, he doesn't hang out with us anymore for some reason. Again, what happened between you two?"

"Put me on speaker."

"You're on speaker, Tris."

"Hey guys!"

"Hey Tris!"

"Ok, I'ma need you all to be quiet for a couple minutes."

"But what if we have questions?" I hear someone ask.

"Then you'll need to save them for the end."

"Ugh," the same person says.

"Ok, so a little more than three weeks ago, the day after we got off for summer, my mom told me that she got me a modeling job for her new clothing line. She told me that it was in Paris, and that I'd be gone for two months. Three days before my mom and dad would leave for Paris, I decided to go too. Then the day before I left, Four climbed into my room through the window-"

"Wait. Four climbed into your house through the window? You have an upstairs bedroom. How is that possible?"

"Oh my god, Uriah, we're neighbors! And I said no questions till the end!"

"Ok, jeez."

"Now shh, children. So Four told me that he wasn't being totally honest with me, and that he had to get something off of his chest. He, um, told me that at one of Zeke and Uriah's parties, he got drunk and slept with a girl that he thought looked like me. I was packing at this time, and he saw the suitcase behind me. He asked me what I was doing with it and I said I was going to Paris for two months. Then we got all mad and I said that I thought that we should break up. He agreed. Then I left and now I'm in Paris trying to get some sleep; I've had a long two weeks."

"Oh, wow." I hear Marlene say.

"I'm sorry that you broke up." Shauna says.

"Yeah, I've been crying a lot. Mostly because I broke up with him and that fact that he cheated on me."

"We should probably let you get some sleep."

"Thanks. Bye guys!"

"Bye Tris! We miss you!" They yell.

I set my phone back down and turn off the bedside lamp. I slowly start to fall asleep.

I walk out of the bath room and walk to the small closet.

It looks like it's supposed to be rainy today, so I put on a black sweatshirt that says 'Just Do It Later," mint skinny jeans, and pink vans. I slip on a mint beanie because they don't want the models to do anything special with their hair before the photoshoots. Same with makeup. I leave my nails how they did them; black with a glitter gradient on the thumb and ring fingers.

I grab an apple for breakfast, my phone and my purse, and walk out my apartment complex. I walk down the street to the studio and walk inside, greeted with hugs from Alexa, Marisa, Kaleb, Ryan, and Tim; aka, the other models.

I hug Kaleb last. All of the models are from Chicago, and I'm trying to get them to transfer to Divergent High. Only Kaleb and Marisa have agreed so far, and it shouldn't be too hard to get the rest of them on board.

"Hey, do you guys want to come to our apartment later?" I said 'our' because my parents didn't want me alone in a big city and they made Kaleb be my roommate.

Kaleb's a nice guy and everything, but I know he likes me and I'm still trying to get over Tobias. Hell, I don't know if I'll ever be able to get over him. How do you get over the boy that gave you everything you've ever wanted, but then in a single night he took everything away; how do you get over that?!

Oh my god, I miss him. I miss him so much. Sure, I miss all of my friends, but I just miss him even more. I don't even know anymore. That night my heart broke into a million pieces and I don't know if I'll ever be able to pick them a up.

"Tris? Hey, Tris?" Alexa says, snapping her fingers in my face.

"Oh, yeah, sorry. Zoned out for a bit there."

"Yeah, let's go get makeup over with," Marisa says.

"Sure."

I pose in front of a camera while wearing one of my mom's new summer outfits she designed. We take ten or so pictures and then I go change while Marisa poses in her summertime outfit.

I stand in front of a camera about four more times before they let us go.

I change back into my outfit I picked out this morning and wait for my friends to change.

Kaleb is the first out and we wait together for what seems like and eternity when he breaks the awkward silence.

"Tris?" I look at him. "Yeah, uh, never mind." I smile at his stuttering and luckily Ryan comes out so don't have to just stand there with Kaleb.

The rest come out and we all walk down the street to my apartment.

I'm in the small kitchen cutting up a nectarine for a snack when Kaleb walks in and steals one of the slices.

I glare at him. "Did you just take one of my nectarine slices?"

"Maybe."

I roll my eyes and throw the seed in the trash can. I take my bowl and sit on the couch. Kaleb sits on the chair next to me.

I look at him.

"Uh, Tris, I was, uh, wondering if you'd like to go on a date with me sometime."

My eyes widen. "Wow, um, I don't know. You see, I just broke up with my long term serious boyfriend two and a half weeks ago, and I'm honestly trying to get over him."

"Oh."

"Yeah." I look at how sad his face looks. "You know what? I will go on a date with you. You never know, you could help me get over him."
