Hey, I'm back. Second time today, wow. Okay so I started writing this story, I don't know if anyone is reading it, or if I should bother continuing it, but I will for now.
Disclaimer: I do not own Divergent. I also do not own the songs Tris and the girls sang last chapter, Girls in the house by Ashley Jana, and Party Girl by Miranda Cosgrove. The song sang in this chapter is Just a Dream by Nelly.
Rate and Review please, then I'll know that people like this story and I will be more likely to continue. Also, I want your opinion on what you would like this story to be about, I have a couple ideas, but what would you like to read about? Fluff? Drama? Etc. Anyway, now onto the story…
TRIS POV
He ordered a beer from Max, and Max then left to collect it for him. I quickly looked away, I mean, wouldn't that be awkward if he caught me staring.
"Hey" the mysterious guy beside spoke. His voice was deep, just as I had expected. He has a confused look on his face, and then I realised that I had been staring at him but not replying for almost a minute now.
I muttered a quick, "Hi", and turned my head, blushing. Then Max returned with his drink.
"Here ya go mate." Max handed the man his drink and then turned back to continue talking to me.
We talked for a while about random things, when he asked me "Hey Tris, where the other girls? You've been sitting here for almost an hour and I haven't caught sight of Christina, Marlene or Shauna yet tonight."
"Really Max, I would like to know the same thing. Last I saw of them was after I sang 'Party Girl' and a slow song was playing, all three of them were dancing with some guys they were eyeing off earlier. Max laughed, and then speak of the devil, Marlene walked up, with the man she had been with before.
"Hey Tris, Max, can we get two drinks please?" Marlene asked Max.
"Coming right up Mar. And who's your friend here?" Max responded as he started making their drinks.
"I'm Uriah." Marlene's friend explained.
That's when the mysterious man I had completely forgotten was sitting beside me spoke, "Uriah?"
"Four, my man! How ya doing?" Uriah asked his friend.
"Nothing's changed since an hour ago." Four replied.
"Oh, well, okay then." Uriah responded.
I couldn't quite figure out why someone would want to be called Four, it's a number not a name. But that's what Uriah had called him. Hmmm... Four.
"Tris? You still there?" Marlene asked me.
"Huh? Uh yeah... I'm still here." I murmured quietly. Max and the guys laughed.
"Have you seen Shauna or Chris, Mar?" I asked Marlene.
"Um...Oh yeah, there's Chris!" And true to Marlene's word, there was Christina, dancing with a blonde man.
"Hey that's Will, isn't it Uriah?" Four questioned his friend.
"Yeah it is! I'm almost positive. Here, I'll check. Yo Will! Over here!" Uriah called loudly over the music. This so-called Will's head shot up like a meerkat, and then, once he caught sight of his mates, started laughing, as he pulled Christina over to us.
"Hey Mar. Hey Tris. Hey Max." Christina said as she and Will walked over to us.
"Hey Chris." We chorused back to her.
"Hey Marlene, introduce your friend." Christina said.
"Oh Christina, that's Uriah, and over there is Four." Will answered for her.
"Well hey. Are you guys' friends or something? Well obviously otherwise you wouldn't know their names, Hahaha..." Christina laughed awkwardly then blushed. "Will, that's Marlene, and Tris. And this is Max." Christina introduced us to Will.
"Hey guys, I liked that song you sang earlier." Will said.
"And happy birthday Tris, I remember the day I turned 21." Will continued.
"That's because it wasn't more than a month ago Will!" Uriah laughed loudly, "But yeah Tris, happy birthday."
"Um, thanks." I replied.
"Not only happy birthday Tris, but wow, you're a great singer too. I mean that was amazing. You were amazing, you are amazing." Four babbled on, and then trailed off awkwardly, after realising what he had said. "Thank you Four." I muttered quietly, looking down, hoping no one had seen me blush.
Everyone continued to chat, and when I looked up, Max was watching me, smirking. No doubt he has seen me blush, I was only hoping he wouldn't bring it up. I glared at him after a minute, because he wouldn't stop.
"Hey Tris? Why you glaring at Max?" Shauna asked. She had come over with a man named Zeke, who happened to be Uriah's older brother.
"No reason." I answered maybe a little too quickly, and looked away from Max. Max only laughed at me, causing me to blush. My red hot cheeks got everyone else listening, laughing at me. Hahaha... Not funny at all.
~~~~~~PAGE BREAK~~~~~~
"And now we will start a spotlight search!" Bud announced to the crowd in the club. The spotlight swept around the room and landed on none other than me. I yelled out from the crowd, "I've already sung twice Bud, give me a break!" and all I got from Bud in response was, "Quit your whining and get on up here. We'll be nice and pick you a partner then." The spotlights searched the room yet again and this time they landed on Four.
Bud yelled out, "Get on up here mate, it's your turn in the spotlight." Four trudged he way up to the stage, with Will, Uriah and Zeke laughing and making faces at him from behind.
"Yeah woo! Go Four! Sing your little heart out!" Zeke cheered louder than the other guys, whiched caused me and my friends, plus everyone else in the club to burst out laughing. Four and I both took a microphone from Tori, and that's when our friends made their way onto the stage, claiming that they would pick our song. We protested, but failed horribly. That's ow Four and I got stuck up on stage singing karaoke to 'Just a dream'.
The music started, the lights faded, and Four began singing.
Four:
I was thinkin about you, thinkin about me.
Thinkin about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes; it was only just a dream.
Me:
I travel back, down that road.
Will you come back? No one knows.
I realize, it was only just a dream.
Four:
I was at the top and I was like I'm in the basement.
Number one spot and now you found your own replacement.
I swear now that I can't take it, knowing somebody's got my baby.
And now you ain't around, baby I can't think.
I shoulda put it down, shoulda got that ring.
Cuz I can still feel it in the air.
See your pretty face run my fingers through your hair.
My lover, my life.
My baby, my wife.
You left me, I'm tied.
Cuz I know that it just ain't right.
Together:
I was thinkin about you, thinkin about me.
Thinkin about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes; it was only just a dream.
So I travel back, down that road.
Will you come back? No one knows.
I realize it was only just a dream.
Me:
When I'm ridin I swear I see your face at every turn.
I'm tryin to get my usher on, but I can let it burn.
And I just hope you'll know you're the only one I yearn for.
No wonder I'll be missing when I'll learn?
Didn't give it all my love, I guess now I got my payback.
Now I'm in the club thinkin all about you baby.
Hey, you were so easy to love.
But wait, I guess our love wasn't enough.
I'm going through it every time that I'm alone.
And now I'm wishing that you'd pick up the phone.
But you made a decision that you wanted to move on.
Cause I was wrong...
Together:
And I was thinkin about you, thinkin about me.
Thinkin about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes; it was only just a dream.
So I travel back, down that road.
Will you come back? No one knows.
I realize, it was only just a dream.
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
And now they're gone and you wish you could give them everything.
Ohhh, if you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
(If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.)
If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.
(If you ever loved somebody put your hands up.)
And now they're gone and you wish you could give them everything.
I was thinkin about you, thinkin about me.
Thinkin about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes (open my eyes); it was only just a dream (it's just a dream).
I travel back (travel back) (I travel back), down that road (down the road)(down the road).
Will you come back? No one knows (no one knows).
I realize, it was only just a dream (No, no, no...).
And I was thinkin about you, thinkin about me.
Thinkin about us, what we gonna be?
Open my eyes (open my eyes) (open my eyes); it was only just a dream (it's just a... it's just a dream).
So I travel back, down that road.
Will you come back? No one knows.
I realize (I realize), it was only just a dream
(Baby, it was only just... it was only just a dream)
Nooo... Ohhh...
It was only just a dream.
The crowd cheered louder than I have ever heard it cheer. No wonder, Four was a pretty great singer, nothing like the original artist that sang that song, but still pretty great. We sounded alright together, and I really liked that song too.
