I walked into my house and threw the tin of cake onto the couch. I walked into the kitchen, grabbed a bag of peas, and walked up to my bedroom. I threw my backpack onto the ground, and laid down on my bed. I held the peas to my jaw and thought about Four. I was just drifting off into a sleep when I heard pounding at the door. I rolled over and looked at my phone. 5:00 it must be Christina. I walked downstairs and put the peas in the freezer. The pounding at the door was giving me a headache.
"Hold on!" I shouted, the pounding stopped. I opened the door and saw Christina with several bags in her hands.
"Hey Tris- Oh my god what happened to your face!" she practically shouted.
"Peter" I said, that was enough to set her off in a rant.
"How dare he! He is such a pig! I cannot believe him" she was yelling my house rang with her voice.
"Christina!" I was trying to shout over her but my voice was too small. "Christina!" I screamed her name. She stopped talking and just stared at me. "I'm ok" I said. "Ok?" She nodded.
"Ok yah, ok" she said and set her bags down. I sat on the couch and pulled a piece of cake out of the tin.
"Alright let's get started" she said suddenly cheery.
"Is this really necessary?" I groaned. She laughed
"Yes, now stop eating cake. Ooh is that dauntless cake?" she asked I nodded
"Then stop eating cake, give it to me, and take these up to your room." She said. I handed her the tin of cake and she immediately pulled out a piece and started eating. I picked up her bags and walked up to my room. She followed, munching on cake. When we got to my room she pulled things out of the first bag. It was an outfit, a simple black v neck t-shirt, a pair of dark blue skinny jeans, and a pair of heels.
"I will wear everything but the heels." I said my mind set.
"No, you will wear everything including the heels." She said back. I didn't feel like arguing with her so I grabbed the outfit and walked into the bathroom. I changed and came back out I glanced over at my mirror and saw it was covered.
"You aren't allowed to see yourself until I am done." She said, explaining the mirror. I nodded and sat in my desk chair, where she had makeup and hair supplies lined up.
"Close your eyes" she said, I did. After a lot of pulling at my hair and dabbing at my face she told me to open my eyes. I did and I walked to the mirror. I looked at myself and saw someone else. I didn't see Tris, the short girl with plain blue eyes and plain clothes. I saw Tris, the still short girl, with blue eyes made bright with black eyeliner. I also had light eye shadow and mascara, lip gloss and powder to cover my bruise. You could still see it but not as well. My hair was down curled slightly at the bottom.
"Wow" I said
"I know I'm a genius." Said Christina. I turned and smiled. I looked at my phone and saw that it was 5:50.
"We have to go" I said Christina nodded I went to grab my black sweatshirt when she stopped me.
"No put this on." She said, she held out a black leather jacket, I put it on the sleeves were tight and smooth against my arms.
"Ok, are we ready now?" I asked, she nodded and we headed outside. We got into her car and drove to the party. When we got there several cars were already lined up on the side of the road. We got out of the car and headed to the house. There was music on and people moving around. When we walked in the door Christina was gone, she went to join some friends who waved he over. I walked past Julia, she was sitting on the couch with some guys, laughing. She didn't even see me walk pat her. I went to get a drink, everyone was drinking beer but I just took a water. I was sitting on a stool taking a sip of water when Four walked up. He sat next to me, I looked at him he had a beer in his hand he looked bored.
"Peter got to you after all huh?" he asked looking at the bruise on my face. My hand went to my face suddenly self-conscious about the bruise.
"Yah" I said, he nodded and took a sip of his beer.
"You look nice." He said glancing at my outfit,
"Thanks I said" I swept a lock of hair behind my ear. Zeke was walking up so I left. I walked past Peter and his gang. They snickered at my face. I ignored them and found Christina. She was sitting with Uriah I sat next to her.
"Bored?" she asked I nodded. She and Uriah went back to their conversation and I watched people. I saw kissing, dancing, and people having a good time. There were even some Candor there, but ninety percent of the people here were dauntless. I got up bored and went to talk to Julia. We were talking about how easy it would be to jump off the roof of the school onto a trampoline. I heard a loud thump on the other side of the room. Julia and I glanced at each other before going to see what happened. I weaved my way through the crowd until I got where I heard the sound. People were standing in a circle two people stood in the middle of them. I pushed my way through until I got to the front. I saw Peter his face bleeding, and Four arm raised for another punch.
"So you think it's funny to beat up girls smaller than you!?" he was yelling, he was defending me. It was sweet but this was going too far. I ran forward and grabbed Four's arm.
"Stop! Four stop!" I was shouting at him, he lowered his arm and looked at me.
"He hurt you, you don't think he deserves to be punished for it?" he said.
"Of course I do, but not like this!" I said he nodded. I let go of his arm
"Ok, I'll stop." He turned to Peter "You stay away from her" he said sternly. Peter nodded and limped off. After another hour of talking to people I found Christina.
"Can we go home?" I asked
"Yah, come on" she said, we got in her car. I was exhausted and we didn't talk the ride home. She dropped me off at my house and I walked in the door lazily. I locked the door behind me and went up to my room. I changed and got in bed, I fell asleep as soon as my head hit the pillow.
