Me and the boys drive to Tris' house to pick up the girls, I can't wait this night is going to be great, hopefully. We ring the door bell and the Trie opens the door leaving me speechless, she looks so beautiful.

"Thanks, you don't look too bad yourself," she smiles as I realize I said that out loud so maybe I wasn't that speechless. There was a chorus of compliments and then we all piled into our cars and drove off to the school, all the couples in their own cars.

We pull into the parking lot and walk into the cafeteria where the dance is. 'The Things We Lost' by Bastille is playing. I hear a soft humming and look over to Tris and see the humming is coming from her. I smile at how cute she is.

"Why are you staring at me?" she asks without even looking at me.

"How did you know I was even staring, you didn't even look over here?"

"I can feel your eyes on me, that sounded kind of creepy, but whatever it's true," she shrugged looking over at me smiling. a slow song came on a few minutes later.

"Would you like to dance?" I ask extending my hand to her.

"I would love to," she replied taking my hand. We walked out to the dance floor and she wrapped her arms around my neck and I placed my hands on her hips. Her head found my shoulder and it fit so perfectly, we got lost in the music and all I wanted to do was stay like this forever.

I gently stroked her hair and I could feel her smile. The song ended and the moment was lost as the microphone screeched as someone tested it.

"Now is the time to announce who had been nominated for homecoming court!" said an over excited cheerleader. I still thought it was a bit weird that these dances were so close together, but whatever.

"Nominated for queen is Marlene, Tris, and Shaylee! For the boys Uriah, Four, and Zeke! Thank you and have a great rest of the dance!" she said allowing the music to keep playing.

"Wow, I didn't see that one coming, for me at least. For you it was kind of obvious," Tris said smiling up at me.

"Are you kidding?!? You are the prettiest and kindest girl I know why wouldn't you be nominated?"

"I'm not that pretty," she said blushing looking down.

I lift her chin up until her eyes meet mine. "I wish that you would see yourself the way that I do, you are more beautiful than you can imagine."

I hear a chorus of 'awwws" behind me and turn around to see the whole group standing there smirking.

"Whatever," Tris says dismissing the topics. "Do you want some punch Four?"

"Sure," I say kissing her cheek as she makes her way over to the punch table.

So far this night is going wonderfully, I hope it doesn't change.
