Hellooooo. So, I know I left some of you kind of: What was that? Why? After the last chapter, but I need some drama in my story. So get over it. Also, you guys will need to wait a couple more chapters for Fourtris, depending on when I can be bothered.
By the way, no one read my cousin's story like I asked you too :( I am so disappointed in you guys. Please go review for my cousin, if you have read Legend by Marie Lu. Clary Everprior is the author and the story is called 'Giving up everything'. Don't be lazy, it's short.
Disclaimer: I do not own Divergent, Veronica Roth does, and I also do not own the song Tris sings in this chapter, 'Cry' by Alexx Calise.
TRIS POV
It's been three days since I was fired, and since my encounter with Four. I haven't told my friends I was fired, or what went down at the park, though I know they're getting worried. At first I continued waking up and showering like nothing had happened and it was a normal day, but once the other girls had left I went back to bed.
It's Friday today, and I haven't left the house since Tuesday, but the girls barged into my room earlier claiming that we were going to go to Divergence tonight. Yay… Note the sarcasm I used there.
CHRISTINA POV
What's wrong with Tris lately? She hasn't been acting like herself. Like, for example, she's never out of bed, let alone out of the house, she barely eats anything, and none of us can get her to say more than a few words at a time.
I came up with an idea last night, when Marlene, Shauna and I were eating dinner, and Tris was lying in bed, claiming she was tired. I told them we should go out to Divergence tomorrow, meaning today, because Tris always has fun there, whether or not she wants to go in the beginning. Both girls thought it was a great idea.
Marlene was so excited, that she thought we should go tell Tris right then and there, but Shauna spoke before Marlene was even standing. Shauna explained that if we tell Tris she might act like she wants to go, but use all day tomorrow to think of an excuse to get out of it. She continued to explain that if we wait until we are just about to leave tomorrow, Tris won't get any time to think of an excuse.
Marlene and I quickly agreed.
Marlene started thinking, and then asked if we could invite the guys. Shauna blushed a deep shade of crimson, thinking of Zeke, I smiled genuinely at the thought of dancing with Will again, and Marlene laughed at our expressions. I regained my composure and told Marlene 'yes', and make sure that they bring Four also, because Tris and him have feelings for each other but are being stubborn, and not admitting them to each other.
So the girls and I spent the last hour working our magic on Tris, so she looked beautiful for Four. Let me just tell you now, she was stunning.
"A-may-zing Tris! Absolutely brilliant!" I exclaimed at her when we had finished and she was looking at her reflection in the mirror. She smiled, I couldn't believe it, she smiled! "Let's go!"
We walked down the stairs and got in the car and drove to Divergence where the guys said they would meet us.
FOUR POV
Last night Uriah came into the living room and told us that we were going to meet Marlene, Shauna, Christina and Tris at Divergence the next night, meaning tonight, now. He said that Marlene and the girls wanted to get Tris out of the house, and we were going to surprise her.
I still haven't had a chance to apologize to Tris for what happened at the park, I figured I would give her a couple days to cool off, and I'll apologize tonight.
The guys and I were inside at the bar, drinking, when we saw the girls enter. They were laughing, especially Tris. She looked radiant. Christina looked around and spotted us. She pointed us out to the other girls, but Tris walked the opposite direction when they made their way over.
"Hey chick-a-dees." Zeke smiled at them, then went and kissed Shauna's cheek. Uriah went and wrapped his arms around Marlene's waist, whispering something softly in her ear, causing her to blush fiercely. Will took Christina's hand and pulled her onto his lap, sitting on a bar stool.
"Where's Tris?" I asked looking around the club, which was kind of pointless, considering the chances of finding one certain person, in a crowd of hundreds was very low.
"Yeah, she walked in with you girls didn't she?" Will asked.
"Yeah she did. She said she was going to go find Tori." Marlene explained to us.
A couple minutes later I spotted Tris further down the bar talking to Tori. She's happy and smiling as Tori talks to her, then Tori walks away, and Tris walks over to us.
"Hey Tris." Everyone greets her. She looks to everyone, greeting them back. Her smile fades the moment her eyes land on me. All she does is turn towards the bar and starts conversing with Max.
TRIS POV
It's been a couple of hours since we arrived, and I have spent those hours chatting to Max.
"Tris!" I hear Bud's voice over the microphone, "Time to sing!"
I see Christina and Marlene standing next to Bud waving at me frantically. I sigh and walk over.
"What song?" Marlene asks.
"Go sit down or something." I mumble.
Her and Christina reluctantly agree and walk off the stage leaving me with Bud. He starts to question me about whether or not I am alright. He says the Marlene told him about my behaviour lately. I just told him the song I was going to sing, picked up my microphone, ignoring his questions.
I made my way to the middle of the stage as the song started. The song I chose wasn't an upbeat song like I usually would pick, which caused questioning looks from the girls. I ignored them and started to sing.
Well I guess it's been a while
Since I've seen the sunshine
Since I have smiled
And me, who's so well versed
Is feeling so damn empty
Is at a loss for words
Forgot what it's like
To just to feel okay
I'm praying for the day
When there is no more rain
And I don't wanna do anything but cry
Oh, and I don't wanna do anything but cry
(I don't wanna do anything but cry)
Well I hardly feel alive
I'm going through the motions
But I don't feel like trying
The hole in my heart is growing bigger by the day
I wish that I could crawl inside
Hide away
And I don't wanna do anything but cry
Oh, and I don't wanna do anything but cry
Oh, I'm so low
I'm almost to the bottom
And oh, nowhere to go
Even my soul has left my body
Oh, and I don't wanna do anything but cry
Oh, and I don't wanna do anything but cry
And I don't wanna do anything but cry
And I don't wanna do anything but cry
Towards the end of my song I started to feel tears welling up in my eyes. As they fell across my cheeks I looked for the first time over at Four, so he could see how he had made me feel.
I handed my microphone over to Bud, and walked off stage, and into the bathroom. I had the left the crowd speechless. Some of them were unsure what to do, some were stunned, and Christina, Marlene and Shauna were crying along with me.
When I reached the bathroom I locked myself into the last stall, and cried, not like a couple of tears, but I really cried.
What do you guys think? Listen to the song, the whole song, not just the start bit. Review.
