Divergent: The Outsider 2

|Chapter 5|

I stare at myself in the mirror, I look decent. Dressed up but not too dressy.

I mean we are just going to the bar. I place my Nike shoe box back in order in our closet. I sigh and walk towards our bathroom deciding what should I do with my hair.

I grab the curling iron and part my hair, curly hair never failed. I do each individual piece and when I'm finished I start my make up. I do some eyeliner, mascara, and peach lipstick.

I put my phone in my cardigan pocket along with my wallet and I look at my golden watch and sigh again, of course their late.

I should go ahead and head downstairs so we could just get this night over.

"Bye guys love you!" I say to my dogs who are asleep, perfect I get to leave without them barking.

I quietly shut the door and carefully make my way towards the elevator so I can go straight down to the lobby.

I look around and go outside instantly regretting it due to the freezing wind blowing tonight. I shiver and rub my shoulders, I shouldn't have wore at crop top.

My belly ring feels, frozen.

I see the girls pull up and I open the door getting in the back beside Marlene.

"I love Portland and all but in the cold, you can freeze a polar bear, damn it's cold out there." I say in my own way of greeting my friends.

"I know right." Christina says in the passenger seat as Shauna drives towards the bar that we are going to.

Christina turns around and looks me up and down and smiles.

"You look cute." She says and I smile at her even though it's dark outside.

"Thanks, I try." I laugh and we continue driving in a comfortable silence.

Okay so the bar we ended up going to was, Burlesque. . . Burlesque.

I mean after working there for about a good two years you would want to go to a new bar. But, I'm not complaining. It's all good.

We get out of the car and rush into the building and go down the few steps where we see Alexis the guy who takes the money to get inside.

He smiles brightly at us and shoos us inside even though we should pay but he just let us get in for free I guess.

June, a new waitress leads us to a table that's in the middle and close to the stage so there is a good view.

I sit by the end of the circular table on the left side with Christina beside me.

"Hello, welcome to Burlesque. I'm Natasha I will be taking your orders today." Natalie says a pretty girl around twenty walks to our table with her red hair pulled into a bun.

"Can I have the Apple Washington please." I say pulling out my ID card.

The girls start ordering their drinks and showing their ID, we also order a basket of fries. Natasha stares at us in shock due to us not looking at the menu.

We know this menu page to page. It's just because we had to help so many customers find their specific orders.

Once Natasha returns back with or drinks we start to have conversations about the show tonight, these girls are good just young and very rude at times.

I hear a laugh, a deep laugh. A very familiar laugh. I slowly look up trying not to draw any attention my way and I see its Tobias and the boys.

Damn I thought we could have some girl time, I thought wrong.

"Guys, don't turn around or draw any attention to yourself. The boys are here." I say and they giggle. Christina looks and smiles since we're on the same side.

"That's not funny." I say with a giggle.

"You guys did that on purpose didn't you." Marlene says looking at Shauna and Christina and they shake their head no.

"We didn't even know." Shauna says as I take a sip of my drink through my straw.

"TRIS! Christina! Mar! Lynn! Shauna!" We hear someone shout and we turn around and we see Char and Tori walking towards us and we cut a line through our neck saying cut it out shut up.

"What?" Cher says as she stops walking and I see the guys looking at our direction with confused expressions.

"Shut up." We whisper not loudly because we don't want the guys detecting our voice. We just want to sit here together.

"Oh gosh." I say placing my palm on my forehead laughing.

"I don't care," Tori says and laughs "How's life." She says giving us each hugs.

"Good," We reply simultaneously.

"We really need you guys to come to practices do you can preform and help the girls, they really need it." Cher rolls her eyes and we laugh.

"Well. . . Well. . . Well." Duke says walking towards our table as Cher and Tori point to the backdoor and smile walking back there.

"Heeyy. . ." We says sheepishly showing our faces.

"Are you spying on us?" Zeke laughs.

"What! No! That's. . . Preposterous." I say shaking my head.

"We just so happen to go to the same bar." Marlene says looking at Christina who shrugs her shoulders.

"You look beautiful." Tobias says giving me a hug.

"Thanks." I reply pecking his lips leaving our maniacs we call friends to their conversations.

Uriah is eating up all of our fries which is a disappointment. They went back to pay for their table now their over here bugging us.

"So, I asked the guy, why won't you give me the whole cake if I already said I would pay for it. It's not like it's going to be eaten all today. Tris you can at least look a bit more concerned." Uriah says looking at me making the table laugh.

Uriah is telling us a story from yesterday when he went to the bakery and he wanted the whole cake instead of a piece.

My position changed from sitting upright to my elbows on the table and my head on my hand and drinking a new drink.

I put on a fake smile and our table dies of laughter earning a few glances from other tables and Uriah to pout.

It feels so good to be here and not be on my feet serving people. It's just amazing. Surprisingly I'm in a state of tranquility.

The lights start to dim meaning the show is about to start and the noise in here dims down.

Na Na Na. Na Na Na Na Na.

I can't just get you out of my head.

The curtains go up and the girls are dressed in futuristic clothing. The worlds biggest diva is in the front. . . Sasha. She really kills me.

No one is is singing its all lip syncing since I'm sure they can't sing like us.

There's a dark secret in me. . . Don't leave me locked in you heart. Set me free.

She stares at Tobias and it feels like this is a second creation of Nita. I roll my eyes at her when she catches my glare.

When they finish they get off of the stage, not before she winks at Tobias.

I can smell trouble already.
