"Beatrice?"
I gasp and turn around. All bad thoughts leave my head. Blue eyes. Those blue eyes! The ones I've been looking for. My mouth drops.
"Tobias?" I say, in shock. I run to him and fling myself into his arms. "Oh Toby! I haven't seen you in so long. I missed you so much!"
He wraps his strong arms around me, and I bury my head into his chest. "You too Beatrice." I breath in his scent. I missed him so much. "And my name is Four by the way."
I look up to him in confusion for a moment. A nick name I guess. I half smile and say, "My name's Tris now, anyways." He smiles and laughs. I take a step back from him.
"Gosh Tris, I haven't seen you in so long!" He frowns a bit, and I wonder why. I nod my head in agreement. "No you don't understand, anytime someone new came to town, I'd try to find you." I see he immediately regrets saying this, because his ears turn to a pink and he scratches his neck. Old habits stay with you.
I gasp again, remembering what Uriah said this morning. "So, Four," I start, testing out the nick name, "this kid named Uriah-I think- said we have all our classes together!"
I see his eyes light up for a moment, and he immediately covers it with a mask. I wonder why? "That's cool." I frown.
"Good seeing you, Four." I say turning away, and starting to walk. I let out a breath I didn't k ow I was holding.
"Tris Wait!" I smile and hide it as I turn around. I raise an eyebrow.
"Yes?" I say, still hiding that damn smile. He blinks for a few seconds, as if he's thinking what to say.
"You can call me Tobias. Only when it's us. It's nice to hear my name again." I smile. A real, genuine smile. Then I nod.
I turn and walk away, that smile still on my face. And I see that this is the happiest I have been in years.
And realization hits me.
I still like Tobias Eaton.
But I doubt he likes me back.

I wish to improve my writing, and this story would be the first novel i've ever written... Updates will be posted very erratically. If you will rate this story less than 3 stars, please do leave a review so I will know what the problem was in the story. Cover art is not mine and I found it here. If the artist wants it taken down, I shall comply. Hiatus until summer kicks in. It's a bit of a mess right now. Also,please check out my other fiction, Alice in Magicland. AIML will be active since it's much easier to write than this novel.

How to raise a Hive Queen
This story is about a newborn Hive Queen, which gets raised in an unexpected environment. The first part of the story will focus on her development and the challenges that come with it. Eventually she will start to produce her own swarm of hive creatures. The species of the Hive Queen is called the Sylv and they are a insectoid species with an hive mind. The Sylv can evolve themselves through extracting traits from other non Sylv creatures. This is limited to modify the basic set of creatures the Sylv can produce, they are not able to create completely new creatures. In this regard they are more like ants, who have workers, soldiers and queen ants. The Sylv live underground in so called hive complexes and use living structures in them to produce more of their kind. The Hive Queen is the leader of a Sylv Hive and responsible for evolving the swarm. This novel takes place in a fantasy setting and was inspired by other hive species like the Zerg from "Starcraft" made by Blizzard Entertainment, the Arachnea from "Her majesty's swarm" published on j-novel club, and the Vex from "I don't want to be the Hive Queen" by ValetheHowl. I really enjoy stories with an organic hive mind species and want to contribute myself. The focus and theme of this story will change as the Hive Queen matures and defines the goals she wants to achieve. If you like this story also check out my other fiction "To former Glory" here on Royal Road :D
