Divergent: The Outsider 2

|Chapter 2|

"The trial is this Tuesday for Adam Greene is set and the evidence for the assault is running through the lab as we speak." Ashley, my assistant says handing me different stacks of papers and a Manila folder.

"Thanks, I have to put the notes in and finish filing the names and all." I say dodging all of the workers in the busy office who are answering emergency phone calls and talking to the policemen over the radio phones.

Today I had to actually dig through my closet to find something to wear today, nothing is fitting!

I found a pair of stripe dress pants with matching jacket and a regular red shirt. It still was a bit tight but I made it work out, I really need to lay off of the chocolate.

"Thanks," I say as I open my door to my office and I nod at Ashley and she runs off. I shut my door and plop down at my chair with a content sigh kicking off my shoes, I don't even bother opening the blinds.

I kick my feet up on my desk digging through my purse and I find a Hershey bar and I smile brightly savoring the delicious sweetness.

I wipe my hands off and sit up opening my laptop.

"Okay Tris, get to work. The quicker you can get this done the quicker you can go home." I say to myself as I grab the first file and start placing it in alphabetical order and then filing them in the filing cabinet.

A knock on the door interrupts me as I do my work but I'm too lazy to get it do I just scream for them to come in.

Tobias walks through the door holding two plastic bags with a huge smile on his face.

"Hey babe!" I say happy to see my fiancé. I place the little stack of files on my other desk and I shut my laptop.

He shuts the door and then walks towards me pecking me on the lips.

"You've been eating chocolate haven't you?" Tobias says and I nod with shame since he caught me.

"What did you bring good to eat?" I ask as I notice his apparel today; basketball shorts, muscle tank top, and his Jordan's.

He must be on break too.

"Well, it's something new. It's all organic." He starts and I stare at him with a what face. Of course I'm short and skinny but that doesn't stop me from eating.

"You have to try it babe, and if you don't like it then I will make it up to you with a fancy dinner." Tobias says placing the food on my desk and I groan.

I am gaining a few pounds and I need to fit into my wedding dress perfectly so I do need to eat healthy even if I don't want to.

I'm not the type to only eat something small to maintain a small figure, I really song care but I do like to be skinny and well, fit.

So I'm not going to just stop eating but just eat healthier.

"Okay. . . so we have pita bread with hummus anddd. . . gluten free-breadsticks, fruit salad, and tofu soup." Tobias says setting out each white styrofoam box.

"What in your right mind possessed you to get all of this?" I ask with a slight chuckle grabbing a few bottles of water from my mini fridge.

"Well. . . I was on break and was just on a healthy rampage so since I was in the good spirit I got us healthy lunch. . . come on Tris, try it. I won't forget our deal tonight." He says handing my a plastic fork.

"Bleh." I cringe as I look at the-hummus.

"Ugh, it's like I'm trying to get a child to eat their vegetables." Tobias rolls his eyes.

"Well, I'll only eat it if you eat it." I say and he nods pursing his lips and takes a deep breath and we both stick the bread in the hummus and try it.

The taste is bitter and. . . well, I can't explain it. It's just very. . . What's the word, unique.

Neither of us swallow it and he stares at me with a expression that says, ew.

We both grab a napkin spitting it out and drink some water.

"Let's try the soup." I suggest grabbing plastic spoons and we taste it, no offense but this taste like butt-crack. Not that I know what that taste like but still, you get my drift.

I groan forcing myself to swallow the weird soup and I once again drink some more water. The only thing actual edible is the fruit salad.

"I'll be expecting my dinner tonight when I get home." I smirk at Tobias who pouts.
