(Shout out to Trisaba Daph Ride 464 inspiring the new character! Now for the story!)
Tris's POV
On my way back from WSEBO applying for a job there with Lynn, I bump into someone.
"Oh my god! I'm such a klutz!" I exclaim as I help her up.
"No problem," she says with a warm smile. "I'm Daphne but you can call me Daph."
"Hey, I'm Tris." I say. I get a good look at her and she looks pretty. She has dark red hair with blue streaks weaving through her hair and dark blue eyes that kind of remind me of Four's eyes. She doesn't look too girly. She has black ripped leggings with a skater skirt and a black off the shoulder shirt.
"I'm new in town and I was heading to Dauntless Diner to meet up with my brother and his friends. Do you know where that is by any chance?" Daphne asks.
"Well I'm kind of new too but you're in luck. It's where my friends and I usually hang out when we're not at one of our apartments." I say. "I'm actually headed over there now. Wanna walk with me?"
"Yeah, nice to meet you by the way."
"You seem cool Daph. How old are you?" I ask.
"I'm 17, you?"
"Oh, I'm 20. You're a little young to be "new in town" don't you think?"
"Well I'm moving in with my brother. Just needed to get away from my dad." She seems a bit nervous when she brings up her dad.
"Yeah, my old man didn't like me moving in the big city by myself."
"But you're 20! Why didn't you move out for collage?"
"Collage? I was a country girl who chose the big city. Dad didn't let me go to collage. He wanted me to work on the ranch or farm."
"Oh. Well my dad is anything but over protective." She cringes, strange.
"Anyways, have anybody you have your eye on?" I wiggle my eyebrows.
"Actually, I have a boyfriend back home. He's moving here next week."
"Ooh, what's his name?"
"Al. I just hope my brother likes him."
"Over protective?"
"You have no idea."
"I have an idea. My brother's only a year older but he treats me like I'm 10."
"Damn. At least my big bro isn't that bad."
We stop in front of the diner and exchange numbers. She'd be a good friend. We walk in and I see my friends. Daph follows me, a bit confused.
"Daphne!" Four exclaims as he pulls her into a hug.
"To-Four!" She exclaims. No one seems to notice her slip up, but I do.
"Who's she?" Lauren asks with venom dripping from her voice.
"So Four's your big bro eh?" I ask.
"Yup!" She says popping the "p".
"Then welcome to the group!" Christina exclaims. "I'm Christina, this is my boyfriend, Will, and our friends, Lynn, Marlene, Uriah, Zeke, and Shauna. You know Four and I see you've met Tris and Lauren."
"Yes, I'm Lauren. Your future sister-in-law!" Lauren exclaims.
"YOU'RE ENGAGED?!" Daph exclaims.
"Chill Daphne, she's only my girlfriend." Four reassures her.
"Only?" Lauren asks, glaring at Four.
"Oh you know what I mean," he rolls his eyes.
"She seems like a bitch." Daph whispers to me.
I giggle and whisper back, "you have no idea. When I first came here she tried to attack me. If everyone wasn't there I might've sent her to the hospital. She's a prissy bitch slut."
We laugh out loud and everyone looks at us funny. Lauren scowls, I have no idea why though. We spend the next hour, talking and eating. The conversation is mostly the girls talking about girly shit and the guys talking about sports while Daph, Lynn, and I make plans to go shopping at Hot Topic without the girls so we don't have to go to Victoria Secrets. Ugh. I like Daph, she's cool. She reminds me of me. Her reminding Four to call her Daph reminds me of how I told Caleb not to call me Beatrice. She also likes running and acting. I came here to be an actress so we get along well. I also used to run track at my old school. I think we're gonna be best friends because she loves reading and reads all the books I read. The Hunger Games Trilogy, The Selection Trilogy, The Maze Runner Series, TFIOS, and the PJO series. Stuff like that. She likes the same music I like, wears the same clothes I wear, shops at the same places I shop, likes the same food I like, if I didn't know better I'd think she was my sister. Lauren keeps trying to get close to her but Daph just shrugs her off.
"So we were having a party tonight at Zeke's," Uriah says.
"EK! MAKEOVER!" Christina squeals. Daph shoots me a "help me!" look.
"Actually, I'm giving Daph, Lynn, and me the makeovers tonight." I say. Daph and Lynn sigh.
"Please don't put Daph in something slutty." Four begs. Wait...I can have fun with this.
"Oh so you think I'm a slut?" I ask.
"No, you're the opposite of a slut!" Four exclaims. Daph and Christina seem to know what I'm doing because they grin.
"So you're saying I'm a prude?" I ask. Lynn and Mar catch on as well.
"No, I mean, you, uh, um." He stutters.
"So you think so lowly of me you have no words? I am offended!" I exclaim. The whole table, minus Lauren and Four, is cracking up by now. Four realizes what I was doing and rolls his eyes.
"Oh ha ha, very funny." He says sarcastically.
"Chill, I'll make sure your sister doesn't dress like your girlfriend." I say, patting his back.
"Hey!" Lauren exclaims. "Get your hands off my man!"
"Relax! He's all yours. Lauren, get this through your think skull. I. Am. Not. Interested. In. Your. Boyfriend." I say pronouncing each word carefully. Lauren just scowls at me, Four looks a little disappointed I don't know why, and Daph looks amused. I smirk at her and we walk out of the diner with Lynn.
After a long day of shopping it isn't as bad as I thought it'd be. I like shopping with these girls better.
"Okay Tris, you actually do have to do our makeovers." Daph demands.
"Why?" I whine.
"You're the most girly one here. Don't worry, that's not an insult." Lynn says.
"Fine. Who goes first?" I ask.
"I'll go first." Daph says. I nod and gesture for her to follow me in the bathroom. I start to do her makeup and we talk about stuff.
"So are you really not interested in my brother?" She asks.
"Of course not!" I exclaim. "He seems like a player and if he has or had any interest in Lauren, I want nothing to do with him."
"Do you have a boyfriend?"
"No."
"Have you had any kind of relationship?"
"No, well, yes actually. When I was 14 years old, I met a boy named Tobias Eaton. We fell in love. Or at least I thought it was love. It was really just a summer fling. He was from New York and he was only visiting family. But I'd sneak out late at night just to see him. It was quite romantic but I was young and dumb."
"Wait, what was his name?"
"Tobias Eaton."
She gets a grin on her face but it goes as quickly as it came. I just ignore it.
Daphne's POV
She was once in love with my brother! That sounded familiar. Tobias and I spent the summer at grandma's. I remember he'd always sneak out. He never frowned once that summer. I kept thinking he was getting drunk or high because he came home with the biggest smile on his face. I loved that summer because there was no beatings and Tobias was always happy.
"Okay done," she says. I look in the mirror and I'm shocked. She did an amazing job! She gave me silver eyeshadow and winged the eyeliner. My lips are bright red and my cheeks are rosy. My skin looks flawless. Wow.
"You did amazing!" I exclaim.
"Thanks," she smiles. "I also picked out your outfit. It was actually my prom dress when I was your age."
"I'm only 3 years younger! And are you sure? It was your prom dress. It's gotta be special to you. And it has to be fancy." I say.
"Just look at it first and I insist you wear it to the party," she says. I sigh and give in. She shoves a dress into my hands and I put it on. When I look into the mirror, I look stunning. The dress is a black one shoulder with a belt if diamonds at the waist and it falls down to my knees.
"You look amazing! Keep it!" Tris says.
"I couldn't possibly-" I get cut off.
"I said keep it," she insists. I nod and thank her. I put on my black flats I got today and sit down where Lynn was waiting.
When Lynn steps out I gasp. Tris did another amazing job. Lynn has on a loose dark purple v-neck dress with a black braided belt and it falls below her knees. She also wears black leather boots. She has a smokey eye and a purple streak in her pixie cut.
"Another amazing job from Tris." I say clapping. Tris blushes and goes to work on herself.
Tris's POV
After Lynn I start on myself. Good thing I give girls at WSEBO makeovers or else I wouldn't be able to do makeup so well.
I look into the mirror and I don't see myself. I don't see that 20 year old trapped inside a 12 year old body. I see a young woman in her early 20s. She wears a sapphire blue spaghetti strap dress. The bottom is ruched while the top is covers in blue and silver sequins that goes to the mid-thigh. She has on aquamarine eyeshadow and midnight blue lipstick. The shoes are neon blue slingback heels. I walk out and Lynn and Daph gasp.
"Oh my god." Lynn says.
"The guys won't be able to keep their hands off of you!" Daph exclaims.
"Okay, okay come on let's go!" And we head out the door.
Four's POV
Ugh. Another party Zeke? Really? This is kind of boring. The music has had no lyrics so far. And again, Lauren wants to dance. Thank god there's no slow songs. I wouldn't slow dance with anyone. I haven't slow danced with anyone but Beatrice. It was supposed to be a summer fling but I fell in love with her and I think she fell in love with me too. I'm not sure. The music gets quiet and everyone quiets down. Wait, Christina, Marlene, and Shauna are already here and Uriah and Zeke are hosting this party. Who made the big entrance this time? I look towards the door and realize it's Lynn. She looks nice, cleans up well. After her comes in a pretty red head. I realize it's my sister. What?! Tris did that?! Woah, better keep an eye out for my little sis. Then comes in the most beautiful girl in the world. Tris. I realize Tris gave each one of them a main color. Lynn got purple, Daph got black, and Tris got blue. Blue looks good on Tris. I realize I'm staring agape when Lauren snaps her fingers in front of my face.
"Four!" She screeches. "Come on, don't look at those ugly bitches."
I get angry since those "ugly bitches" are important to me. Daph is my sister, Lynn is my close friend, and Tris is the most beautiful girl in the world.
"YO TRIS!" Zeke yells. "COME UP HERE AND SING A SONG!"
She gives him the finger and everyone laughs.
"YOU GOTTA DO IT! IT'S INITIATION TO BECOME A PART OF OUR GROUP!" Zeke shouts. She groans but goes up and grabs an empty red solo cup then sits down.
I got my ticket for the long way round
2 bottles of whiskey for the way
And I sure would like some sweet company
And I'm leaving tomorrow
What do you say
When I'm gone, when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me by my hair
You're gonna miss me everywhere
Oh, you're gonna miss me when I'm gone
I got my ticket for the long way round
The one with the prettiest of views
It's got mountains, it's got rivers
It's got sights to give you shivers
But it sure would be prettier with you
When I'm gone, when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me by my walk
You're gonna miss me by my talk
Oh, you're gonna miss me when I'm gone
She finishes and everyone cheers. She blushes then shouts, "OKAY I SANG! NOW MOVE ON AND ENJOY THE PARTY!"
The wordless music starts playing and everyone continues partying. Lauren goes off somewhere and I head over to Tris.
"Hey, you were great!" I say.
"Thanks," she blushes. "So where's that slut of a girlfriend?"
"I don't know." I say, honestly. "Probably flirting or something."
"That doesn't bother you?" Tris asks.
"I'm used to it and I don't mind."
"You know, you're supposed to be jealous."
"What? I've never been jealous in my life."
"Well your girlfriend's got the jealousy part down."
"Yeah, sorry about her. She's a-"
"Bitch? Yeah," before she can say anything else, a guy in jeans and a button up comes up to us.
"Hi," he says. "I'm Robert."
"Tris," she smiles.
"Wanna dance?" Robert asks.
"Sure," and they walk to the middle of the room. All of the sudden my blood starts to boil and my fists and jaw clench. This must be jealousy. I don't like it one bit.
