I don't even dare look at what shop Christina pulls me in. In fact, I hardly speak at all.
"How do you like this shirt?" I look up and see Christina holding up a lacy black shirt.
"I think I'll pass..."
Christina sighs. "Tris, you've really got to get new cloths. I mean, look at the stuff you wear!" She points to my shirt. "That, certainly won't cut it."
"Do we really need new cloths?" I ask.
"Of course silly! We're going to a party today!" Christina shakes her head at me. "Come on, you have to try on this shirt."Two hours later, I get back to my apartment hauling a heavy bag of cloths. Tobias sits on my bed reading a magazine. When I come in, he tosses the magazine aside.
"You forgot to lock the door again." He says.
I roll my eyes. "What time is it?"
"Lunch time. Want to come to the cafeteria with me?"
"Sure." I say.
The cafeteria is extremely crowded today. I see Tobias's eyebrows bunch together as he scans the room for empty seats.
"How about we eat at your apartment?" I suggest.
"Good idea." Tobias grabs my hand and we walk towards his apartment.
I peer cautiously into Tobias's room once we get there. I don't remember what it looks like. The last time I was in his apartment, I'd just gotten beaten up by Peter. I wince at the memory.
Tobias's room has light gray walls. The kitchen table is made of deep red wood. I run my fingers along the table and peer into his bed room. His bed is pretty big, with red and black blankets. Typical dauntless.
"What are you doing Tris?" I hear Tobias ask.
"I'm just looking around." I turn and walk to where Tobias sits. He hands me my sandwich.
"Are you nervous about choosing your jobs?"he asks, brushing a stray piece of hair out of my eyes.
"No." I say.
Tobias looks at me as if he doesn't believe me.
"Really, I'm not nervous. I already know what jobs to pick after all." I tell Tobias.
"Ok. I don't have to go to the control room until three. That leaves us two hours of free time. Want to watch a movie?" Tobias asks, kissing me lightly.
"Ok." I smuggle deeply against him as he turns on the tv.
