*I do not own divergent or any of its characters.
"Are you sure you can't get me out of this hell hole?"
"Positive. Christina is not one to mess with when shopping comes up." I groan at his answer.
"Tobias I already have plenty of dresses." I start to apply my makeup and he changes.
"That won't stop her. Eventually you just have to give in." He shouts from my room.
"You should know I am not one for giving up." I wrap my arms around him. He turns to face me.
I lean up to my tippy toes and kiss his nose. Before I get off my toes he places his lips upon mine. He holds my back up to ease pressure off me. While my hands roam his hair. This time I am the one who starts with tongue. He and I both go in a rhythm with each other. He starts to plant kisses all around me. He's about to kiss my collar bone until I pull away.
"Sorry mister. I already got one, and I didn't really like the one."
"Come on I had to let other guys know your taken."
"Taken?" I smirk and lift my eyebrows.
"Yeah I want to know. Would you like to go on a date?" I look up at him as we enter the kitchen.
"We practically have already had dates. I just wanted to take you on a official one."
"Yes I would love that Tobias."
"Alright I will pick you up Sunday at 6:30." He pecks my forehead as we hear two honks.
That must be our rides. We walk out to the separate cars.
"Are you sure I can't hang with guys?" I ask Tobias
"I thought you loved shopping?" Christina shouts from the car.
"Not more then three hours a day Christina."
"Whatever just get in the car before I drag you." I do what she says and I make a pouty face.
We walk through the first store GAP.
"Alright Tris spill." Shauna tells me.
"Spill about what?" I pull up a pair of dark skinny jeans with constellations.
"You know what. You and Four?" I look at Christina as she says this now.
"What about us?" I act dumb. Because our first official date is tomorrow and we still haven't discussed what our title is.
"What's going on are you two dating or is this just a fling?"
"I don't know to be honest. We have practically spent dates together this whole week. But he just asked me out for our first official date."
"Aww it sound like a chick flick." Lynn smacks her sister for saying that.
"Ow Lynn! I'm your sister can't you lean off a bit."
"Nah that just gives me more of a reason to smack you." She says with a smirk.
I go to the changing room to see if the jeans I picked up would look nice. I hear a knock when I finish changing.
"How can I help you?" I say popping my head out the door. Marlene is standing outside.
"How do the jeans fit?"
"They are weird. It's like they are made for you to have larger ankles the your butt." We chuckle.
"That's not normal. Anyway we are going to a dress shop." We both walk out and find the other three. All of us walk through different dress shops. Each one Christina gives us dresses to try on. Some ridiculous while others extravagant.
Lynn found a dress at the first store. It's a turquoise bust with a black tool bottom. It's strapless and looks badass with her short hair.
Marlene got two dresses at the third store. One is purple with a wrapped bust. It has a beaded belt which then the dress flows into a ruffled bottom. The other dress is not strapless. It's a one shoulder, short, and gold dress. It makes her brown hair pop.
Shauna got two dresses as well. A tight silver strapless dress and a laced white dress.
Christina got too many. I can't even begin to describe.
We are at dress store 5. I still have yet to find a dress.
"Tris I have found the dress."
"Please tell me it's not like some of the others Lynn."
"I put Shauna in a maternity dress too. So don't get so huffy puffy." I scoff at her response.
She shows the others the dress they squeal. I still haven't seen what's in the bag. Lynn hands me the bag as I go try it on.
Once I put on the dress I look in the mirror. The dress looks like two dresses, one on top of the other. The first dress it a tight, dark, red strapless dress then over it is black lace. The lace act wraps up to my neck. The lace is a halter so it leaves the back open.
"Guys I don't know. I think I look like a slut." I walk out and they all gasp.
"See I look terrible I should change." Christina grabs my hand before I can go back into the room.
"Tris we gasped because you look beautiful. This dress looks like it was made for you."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes if you don't buy it we will." They all nod at her response. I go and change back into my regular clothes and buy the dress.
We then go into the beauty shop. Each of us girls get our nails done. Colored French tips to match the color of our dress. Mine are black.
Christina decides to get our hair done here so then we can save time. Lynn decides to get her hair trimmed and styled a bit. Marlene's hair is pulled half back with curls falling down. Christina's hair is already short so the pinned a couple pieces back and gave her a curly wave. Shauna just got hers a messy curl with a silver pin. While mine was loosely pulled to my neck. Draping curls pinned in the back. The bunch of curls bundled by my neck are to not hide the dresses back.
Once our hair is done we pile into the car and head to my house.
"Girls I will need help brining my makeup into the house. I have multiple bags full."
"How much do you have Christina?"
"Don't worry I only brought the necessary items."
When I see the bags my mouth gaps.
"Necessary my ass." I mumble.
We each carry three makeup bags upstairs to my room. Christina starts the set up the makeup station while we eat some food.
"Hey Tris whose sweatshirt is this?" Marlene holds up Fours black sweatshirt.
"Mine." I say and quickly grab it.
"Liar! That's Fours I know it!" Shauna screams
"How would you know that?"
"He is best friends with Zeke and I. I know it because he wore it this week too." I feel myself blush.
"Wait was Four here this whole week?"
"Yes."
"Where did he sleep!?"
"Next to me. Why are you all so shocked!?"
"Tris he has never even dated someone. This is a big thing! He didn't even tell us." Four has never dated someone? Wow he must really like me.
"Why didn't you tell us he's been staying here?"
"We thought that it should be secret for a bit. We don't want you to jump to conclusions. Also it's comforting to not be alone."
"Awwwww." Lynn smacks Marlene with a pillow.
"Ow Uriah was right it does hurt." She rubs her head.
"Readyyyyy!" Christina sings.
Christina starts on Marlene's makeup.
"So who are you going with Lynn?" I ask.
"His name is James."
"Wait the motorcycle James?"
"Yeah he and I have been spending a lot of time together."
"Aww my sister has found another mean person to be mean with." Lynn smacks Shauna with a pillow.
"Again with the pillows!" Shauna throws her hands up in the air.
"Lynnnnn yoour neeext!"
"Christina you aren't allowed to touch me with that makeup."
"Fine then Shauna you are up." Shauna hops up from her seat as Marlene sits down.
"So what were we talking about?"
"Lynn and her date James." I wiggle my eyebrows at Lynn when I say this.
"Can we move topics please." Lynn looks agitated.
"Alright Lynn. What dress will you wear Marlene?"
"I was thinking I would wear the purple one."
"Hey Tris do you have heels we didn't get any at the store." Before I can answer Lynn I hear Christina.
"I doooo! While I was waiting for you guys I got us each a pair. They are by my overnight bag." Leave it to Christina to not forget about shoes. Well I actually do get that shoes are cute, but she has an obsession.
I pick up five pairs of shoes. Lynn's are turquoise, Shauna hot pink, Marlene silver, Christina gold, and me black.
Mine are laced high heels you can see my skin underneath. Then before the peep toe a ruffle. I can't believe Christina got me these. I have been dying to get them recently.
"Christina I love you! I was wanting to get these!"
"I know you were. Thing is they will look hot with that dress."
"Alright I know we got our hands done it's just some of us need to fix our toes. Tris can you grab nail polish?" I walk over to my dresser and pull out different colors.
Lynn, Marlene, and I paint our nails. Until Christina calls me over.
"Oh good I'm glad you have a red to match your dress. Now you will look stunning."
"Sure." I mumble.
It feels like forever when Christina does my makeup. I guess I am only used to me doing it.
When she's done she spins me around. It looks perfect. She did simple black eyeshadow and eyeliner. Then she made my eyelashes pop. They are so long and thick; my eyes actually look pretty. Of course she used some foundation and cream. But not too much, because girls looked terrible with that caked on. Then to keep it simple I have some lipgloss.
(Pictures of her hair, dress, and shoes are in my profile.)
Christina already has her makeup on. So we walk in to my room to do her nails.
"Alright so you all brought overnight bags right?" They nod at me.
"Good cause I have a feeling we will play Candor or Dauntless before or after my fight."
"That's right we do have to go to that tonight." If your wondering we did tell Lynn not Al though. Lynn we trusted Al not as much. He has been distant.
"Yeah it will be great to have our whole class watch me fight. Woo hooo!" Note my sarcasm.
"What will you do if they find out it's you?" Shauna asks.
"Four and I talked about that. It was when I was going to wear the wig. He reminded me that if they find out I'm six that's okay. That doesn't mean they will figure out my past."
"You two are perfect for each other."
"Shauna is right." Marlene chimes in.
"What time is TFour going to pick us up with the others?" I ask. Oops I almost slipped.
"What were you just about to say Tris?" Lynn looks at me wide eyed.
"Oh my god! She was about to say Fours real name! She knows his name!" Christina squeals.
"None of us know his name. Not even Zeke does." Shauna says with shock.
"Sorry guys I can't tell you his name. Some things are better a secret and it's nice that I only know." All of them look at me with aww. Except Lynn she fake gags. I laugh at Lynn's humor.
Then we each go and get dressed. Once we are dressed and ready I hear the door bell. Lynn answers the door since James will meet her at the dance.
Christina walks down in her gold sweat heart dress. It has black beading scattered across it. I slightly peep my eyes to look out the door. All the guys are in tuxes and Four looks handsome. He has a black suit and white shirt with a black tie.
When Christina walks down all of the men are shocked. Will's mouth is gaping open. Shauna is next. She starts her way down as soon as Christina reaches the bottom. Zeke's eyes bludgeoned out of his head when he sees her. She chose the silver dress that sparkles at every move. When she wraps her arm around Zeke Marlene starts out. Uriah does the same thing as Zeke. Marlene notices and giggles at him.
Oh now it's me! I am never nervous I always have confidence so why am I nervous now.
"Tris?"
"Yeah just still not sure. Be down in a sec." I quickly grab my blue bow and pin it underneath my dress. It always gives me confidence, especially when I lack some.
I grab my clutch and start walking down the stairs. Now mouths are either open or smirking. Most of the girls smirking. Except there is Tobias. He is practically drooling over my dress.
"T t tris."
"Shhhh" I press my finger of his lips. Lynn then smacks the other boys for staring. So they stare at their dates.
"Tris you look beautiful! I don't know what you weren't sure about. You look drop dead gorgeous in that dress." He whispers in my ear. I blush at his answer.
We all walk into the limo each couple still staring at each other.
"Helloo?! I'm still here!" We ignore Lynn
"Only if I had a pillow." We laugh at Lynn's joke and ride to the dance.
Tobias helps me out of the car and then leads me into the dance.
"Do you want to dance?" Even in this little light I still see the stars in his eyes.
"I would love that Four." He grabs my hands and places them by his neck. Then his hands wrap around my waist. Our foreheads touch as we dance. Just staring into each other's eyes.
When a fast song turns on I sway to the music. Then it slowly creeps up on me. I start to dance. Tobias dances with me.
"Can we get something to drink?" I ask. Hoping to sit down for a bit.
"Anything beautiful." I giggle at his name for me.
We both sit down and find the others sitting too. Except laughing.
"I will go and get us some water." Tobias asks me.
"Thanks. Why are you laughing so much?" I turn to face Christina when I ask.
"Oh you'll see." What did she do!
"Christina!"
"Here's your water. Why are you upset Tris?" Tobias looks concerned.
"They did something and won't tell me. I know it's about me because Uriah has a shit eating grin." Uriah smiles even bigger. I didn't know it was possible.
I see Ms. Cara walk up to the stage and hush everyone before she speaks.
"Alright everyone thank you for coming tonight. I would like to congratulate all the nominees in Homecoming court. I also will announce the king and queen in a few minutes."
I wonder who the king and queen are? I didn't even realize we voted or had this.
"Alright your homecoming king is..." She unfolds the wrapping.
"Four." Tobias walks up to the stage and accepts the crown. He's the perfect king. Gorgeous, athletic, smart, and what every girl wants.
"Hold on to your dresses ladies. The Homecoming queen for this year is.." I hear Christina squeal. That's when I realize.
"YOU LITTLE SHITS! YOU SIGNED M.." I am cut off by Caras voice.
"Tris!" The whole gang bursts into laughter while I walk up the stage. Cara hands me a tiara and Four puts it on me. He looks so handsome with his crown on. I can't believe I actually won. Except it doesn't make up for them signing me up with me knowing.
Four and I walk off stage hand in hand to the table. I glare at Christina.
"You did this without even telling me!"
"Relax Tris. You won Queen!"
"But you didn't tell me!"
"So tell me you don't feel great about beating every girl in school? And now being able to dance with Four instead of him dancing with another chick?"
"Fine this is f****ing awesome. But you should have told me!" They all laugh at my response. Until I see the dance floor empty. A slow song starts ups and Tobias grabs my hand.
"May I take this dance?"
"I would love that." We both walk to the dance floor and dance. My arms around his neck and his on my waist. Our foreheads pressed against each other.
"Did I tell you that you look amazing tonight?" He whispers.
"You may have mentioned it."
"Good." As we dance I notice a couple girls glaring at me.
"Keep them glaring Tris. They are just jealous you have me. And they can't do anything about it."
"Why are you with me?" I do wonder this. I am thin, short, not curvy, and not pretty.
"Tris you are beautiful, no matter what. Your fierce, confident, strong, and determined. You never pitted me. You aren't like the other girls who threw themselves at me. Your different."
He then presses his lips to mine and I kiss him back. We both pull apart since the song ended and walk to the table.
The others are dancing while we sit down with water.
"Tris would you do me the honor of being my girlfriend?" He holds both of my hands and looks me in the eyes.
"I would love that." I kiss him again. I can't believe we are together. It fills a hole in me.
We pull apart and grin at each other.
"Why are you grinning so much Tris? Did you get some 'stuff' from the Amity?!"
"No Christina. My girlfriend did not."
"WHAT!? Finally! You two are perfect for each other!" She squeals
"Thanks Christina. Guys can we head back the dance is about over and I have to train before the fight."
"Yeah let's head back." Will says and we pile in the limo.
Once the limo drops us off I see a car in the drive way. I walk up to the car and look at it.
A silver BMW. Who owns a silver BMW that I know?
I feel blood rush from my body. Butterflies basically drop dead. I just stand still, frozen staring at the house.
"Tris are you okay?" No I am not I know who's home.
I don't know why but I just fall back. I feel Tobias catch me before I hit the ground. My eyes are closed. I guess I fainted from shock.
Because Caleb and my dad are home.
