Tris POV.
I sit in the plain to Chicago, I'm half a sleep and I am replaying the last couple of days in my head.
Flashback:
"Beatrice! Get down here now!" my mom calls from the kitchen.
I find her with an envelope in her hand, it's open and she looks at me like I've killed someone.
"What's this" she spits at me, I look at it and see my name on it.
"That's mine!"
"It says that some soccer team "The Dauntless" is looking forward to see you this summer? For some kind of training camp? I really hope it's a mistake! Didn't we agreed that you should stop playing soccer, and focus on your ballet instead?" She is shouting at me, like I'm some little girl. My dad comes in, and looking at me and mom in surprise.
"What going on?"
"I got the spot" I say, I smile tucking in the corner of my mouth.
"You knew about this?!" My mom yells at my dad. "We agreed that she should stop!" Now it is too much for me, and slam my hand in the table.
"No, we didn't agree, you agreed! This is my life mom! I really want to this, maybe they will keep me. The team is fantastic, one of the best in USA. I spoke to a girl from the team, Christina, I will be living with her and her family while I'm there. Dad and I also spoke to a high school, so if they are keeping me I'm going to stay there with Christina or Caleb"
She looks choked, and like she is trying to find the words.
"When are you leaving?" She manage to say.
"Tomorrow"
"Say hallo to Caleb from me" This is all she says, and then she leaves. I look at my dad, tears trying to make their way down my cheeks. But I fight them off.
"It's okay Bea. This is what you really want; it's not about mom or me. Only about you"
End of Flashback.
My eyes snap open, when a steward tells me to fasten my seat belt. We are here. I get of the plain, and walk through the airport. I see a tall dark skinned girl, standing with a sign in her hand saying: Beatrice Prior. I wave to her, and she smiles and put the sign away.
"Great to see you! I'm Christina, but you can call me Chris" I shake her hand, and return her smile.
"Nice to meet you, you can just call me Tris"
"Okay then, Tris. Are you hungry? We can grab a pizza on the way, the last junk food before we go into training. Then you can meet some of my friends too" She sounds exited, and I am actually very hungry.
"That would be great"
"Awesome! Let me take one of you bags" We hank up in my luggage, and walk out to an old and dirty truck.
We walk into a diner, that is filled up with young people. Almost everyone is wearing a soccer jersey, and it sounds like they are discussing a match. We walk to a table, with bunch of people.
"Hey guys! This is Tris, she got here from Seattle and is going to join the training camp"
The people waves at me, and there is a few "hi" and "What's up".
Christina starts to point them out.
"This is Marlene, Lynn, Shauna and Lauren, they all play on Dauntless. This is Will, Uriah and Al, they play on Dauntless too, just on the boyside of cause" I sit down, and quickly I feel like I am a part of the group.
"So which position do you play?" Uriah, I think, asks.
"Midfield"
"Uhh-ohhh, what side?" I am confused by his reaction.
"Erhmm, left"
"Uhh-ohhh" This time it's the whole table.
"Why do you keep saying that?" I exclaim, they start to giggle.
"That's Molly's position" Uriah says, like it's the most obvious thing in the world.
"Molly is our captain, and she is one hell of a bitch. So be careful!" Christina explains.
I am about to say something, but we get interrupted by a small group of jocks. They are all wearing letter jackets, and one of them are holding a football.
"Well, well. Look who is here. The soccer gays are conversing with the soccer lesbians. That's so beautiful" A tall dark haired guy says, he has a mean smirk on his face. The rest of his gang laugh like they never heard anything as funny. Jackass.
"Get lost creep" Christina spits.
He ignores her and look at me, I feel disgusted as his eyes are holding mine.
"And what's this? A new member of the lesbian gang?" I feel like punching him, but I just keep quit.
"Leave her alone Peter, and get out of our faces" Uriah speaks up, clearly annoyed.
The guy's, Peter's, head turn to Uriah, and he walks over to him. He is inches away from his face when he speaks.
"Did I hear you say something, little soccer girl?" I am biting my tongue, I don't want to get into a fight on my first day. Suddenly a guy grabs Peter by the collar of his shirt, behind him is another guy. Dark hair and blue eyes. He is really handsome, I think to myself.
"You stay the hell away from my little brother and his friends! Do you hear me?!" they guy, Uriah older brother apparently, hiss into Peter's face. He loosen his grip, and Peter and his gang walk away. Uriah's brother turns to us, the other guy stays in the background.
"Stay out of trouble brother"
"Sure Zeke" Uriah says, clearly embarrassed about getting save by his brother.
Christina nudge me in the side.
"The other one is our new coach, Four"
"Four? Like the number?" I ask, giggling a bit. That's a weird name.
"Yeah, pretty weird huh?" Christina says.
