THIS IS VERY VERY IMPORTANT!
I realized that the story would be better if;
A. James loves Yasmin, not Shine.
B. Yasmin doesn't love Uriah.
So, for example, when Yasmin is asked to kiss the hottest guy in the room, she takes off her shirt.
And when she jumped down the net and first saw Uriah, she was just observing and taking it all in. She's never seen a dauntless that close!
Chapter 38
Tris' PoV
Maybe it's not evil. It sounds like Tobias. Like roaring thunder. I pick up a gun and put a bullet in place. "Oh, no need for that." I hear the same voice say. "Who are you?" I ask them. "I, my friend, am Amar." The person whom I now know as Amar says as he walks out of the shadows. "I am Four's old teacher." He says. But he's dead! I think, not noticing I'm saying it out loud. "No, I'm not. I escaped the fence and returned today." I am astonished. "You can't escape! It's impossible!" I reply. "No, it's not if you have a friend at the fence guards." He answers. I am speechless. "You can't tell anyone about me being here. Not Four, not your friends, not your family. No-one." "But my best friend is ex-Candor so if I tell her when she asks 'What's up?' 'Nothing.' she'll know!" I say. He sighs. "Then don't answer the question! Anyways, I came here with a reason. There is a girl in your initiate class. Shine. Do you know who I'm talking about?" He asks. I nod. "Well, she's divergent in the exact same way as you." "Don't say that here!" "I have all the cameras in this part of the compound shut off for ten minutes. Anyway, As I was saying, you need to protect her from everything that comes with being Divergent. I want you to remember one thing; the Divergents are normal, and the non-divergent are divergent." "Huh?" He sighs. "The normal are Divergent and the Divergents are normal." "Once again, Huh?" "In the world outside the fence the Divergents are considered normal and the normal are considered divergent." I start to get it. "Do you mean there are people outside of the fence?" I ask. He nods. "Don't try to escape without a squad and friends within the fence guard, though." He says, before turning away and magically disappearing. "Amar? Amar!" I yell. No response. Goddamnit.
Yasmin's PoV
"What shall we do tonight?" I ask our group (which basically consists of all initiates except Cinda and Rick). Some shrug, and some remain silent. "We can go shopping!" Shine proposes, and everyone except me and James sighs or groans. "Then it's settled! Me, James, and Yasmin'll go shopping! The rest of you can do whatever, I don't care." She adds. James looks up from his plate. "Huh? What? Am I suddenly coming shopping?" He asks with his mouth full. I giggle because of it and Shine nods. "I didn't agree to this!" He argues, having swallowed the food. Shine shrugs. "You're still coming! Shopping law!" She says. Now it's his turn to sigh.
We finish dinner and the three of us walk to the first shop. Well, not shop, parlour. Tattoo parlour.
"Hello ladies and gentleman! Want a tattoo?" Tori asks. I nod. We walk over to pick a design. Suddenly the door bursts open. When I look to see who it is, I see Six – no, she's called Tris – standing in the doorway. "I'm terribly sorry, Tori. I was being held up by Christina and her shopping." She apologizes. Tori smiles and nods. "It's okay. We haven't had any clients. Except these three who are still picking." Tris looks over at us and smiles. "Is James joining the girls?" she teases. James nods. "I was lured into it. Shine proposed the idea and I didn't make sure she knew I didn't want to come. Now I had to. Shopping law, apparently." He replies, not looking up from the book of designs. Her smile grows wider. "I know the drill. Christina acts the same." Tris says walking over to an empty station and she sits down, grabbing something that looks like a notebook. I walk over to see. It has one big drawing on every page. They all look amazing. I see something that looks like the Chasm, only from water-level, I see their apartment, I can see something that looks like the outside of an Abnegation house and I see some kind of bird. "What's that?" I ask Tris, pointing at the bird. "It's an Eagle. I read that the liberty symbol of this city once was a giant eagle in front of a red and white striped flag with one corner being blue with fifty white stars. I don't know what the flag resembles though." She answers. I nod. "Can I have that on my shoulder?" I ask her. She nods. "Sure! Lay down on this table. on which shoulder? And front or back?" She asks. "On the front of my right shoulder. Also I would like two roses intertwined with guns right below them (A/N See Guns 'n' roses symbol for explanation) just above my pants on my back." I show her the design for the latter and she starts drawing. Once I'm done both James and Shine are done by Tori. We walk outside.
Now we step into a store with T-shirts and standard pants. Shine starts to browse the pants, while James and I start to browse the shirts. After a while James is next to me, searching. "Hey, Yasmin?" He asks. "Yes?" "Please don't be mad." I raise one eyebrow and look at him. "Why?" I ask. He gives me a quick kiss on my lips. A kiss. A lot of things are going on inside of me right now. Happiness, curiosity, and joy, but also fear, and anger. Why did he kiss me? Me, of all people? I mean, I knew he had a crush on me since Shine told me, but why? He puts a finger on my lips just as I'm about to speak. "Don't. I had to have a taste." He says. He removes the finger from my lips. "Hey, James?" I ask. "Yes?" "Please don't be mad." He looks like I'm about to slap him. "Why?" He asks carefully. I lunge to his lips with mine and bring my hands to his neck. He is stunned at first but quickly recovers by putting his hands on my waist. We kiss for a couple of breaths until I finally pull back. I smile. "Because I want to kiss you." I say. He smiles.
We walk to the dress store. "James, you need to validate if my dresses look good, okay?" I ask him. He smiles. "Everything'll look good on you." He says after nodding. I blush a little and we walk inside. He takes place on a bench just outside of the changing rooms. I grab a black strapless dress with the inside being all red, as well as the first two inches of the top, A black dress with beautiful red detail that encloses my shoulders as well, a red dress with black detail, and a strapless red dress that has four straps on the front and none on the back, having two on each side of my breasts, making a large X and connecting behind my neck. It should go perfect with a strapless push-up bra (A/N If that even exists. The hell do I know about bras, dresses and panties? I'm a thirteen year old (Forever alone, one might add) guy! I use my imagination, and it exists in this world.). I walk to the changing rooms and put on a dress, before walking out and showing it to James. Of course he says that it looks either 'Hot', 'Sexy', 'Amazing', or 'Beautiful' or a combination so I buy them all.

After a couple of other stores we finally stop in front of the lingerie store. "Oh hells no am I going in there!" James says. "You have to. Laws of shopping!" Shine answers. He groans as we walk inside and takes place on the first seat he can find. Shine and I walk through the place looking at lingerie. I buy two lacy bras and panties and a push-up bra and Shine buys, well… A lot. We check out and James and I walk hand in hand back to the dorms. When we go in everyone stares at us. Partly because James and I are holding hands and look very happy and partly because Shine is holding a huge bag of lingerie. I give James a quick kiss to confirm everyone's looks and walk to my bed. Rachel comes toward me. "So, ya hooked up with my big brother?" She asks, happily as always. I smile and nod. "Glad he's finally found a girlfriend. He's never had one!" Rachel adds. I raise my left eyebrow. "Really? And he's so hot!" I answer. "Most girls don't think that way. Neither do I. But, seeing as he's never been wanted, I think you're good on the cheating level of your relationship." I smile again. "Yeah, I guess that's true." "But, you're really hot so I don't know what other guys would do to get him away from you." She compliments. I giggle. "I don't know who would, though. Rick's good, Blue's in a relationship with some erudite girl, and Pierce and Christopher are different than before. But even if someone would try and succeed, then I still wouldn't want them." I reply. She smiles. "Be good for my bro, would you?" She finally asks, walking towards her bed. I smile and lay down. I'm too tired to put on pyjamas. I hear something like a bed moving. Then I hear James. He's whispering in my ear. "I'm laying down next to you, so I can chase away all your bad dreams." He says in a low, manly voice. I giggle and open my eyes. He's already put his bed next to mine. Now his head is right next to mine. I give him a kiss and answer; "If you have a bad dream, you can come lay down in my bed next to me." He smiles. "I've put my bed right next to yours, so that's practically what's happening." He replies. "But this is a larger distance, isn't it?" I answer. "I didn't think of it that way." He answers, still smiling. I give him another kiss. "Are you sleeping in your clothes?" He asks. I completely forgot I didn't put my pyjamas on, even though I made that decision five minutes ago. "I suppose I could change, but I'm tired." I say, yawning at the last few words. "I can help." He says, smiling. "No, I'll do it myself, you perv." I say, smiling while I slap him playfully on his shoulder. He laughs and I grab my pyjamas. I change by my bed and notice James staring at me. Well, my parts. "Enjoying the view?" (A/N Goddang that sentence is used often in this story!) I ask him while putting on an XXL shirt I picked up this afternoon as a nightgown. "I get a chance to see the most beautiful girl ever half-naked! Of course!" He answers. I blush a little bit and lay in my bed next to him. I give him a small kiss. "Goodnight sweetheart." He says. The sweetie. "Goodnight, sexy hunk of man." I answer. He smiles and we close our eyes.
Stay awesome ducklings ;)
