Divergent: Without the War

Chapter 2

Tris P.O.V.

I walk into the dorm and Christina sets down our shopping bags. 80 points wasted, I think to myself.

I walk in front of the mirror and state at myself. I used to be Beatrice, where I would only look in the mirror every 3 months, but not anymore. I have become so much more than that.

I hear a knock on the door and before I can say 'come in', Marlene and Shauna come rushing in. "Finally!" I hear Christina scream. "We only have an hour and a half until we have to bring Tris to Four!" she says it them and winks at me. I groan.

I can see both Shauna and Marlene are already ready for the party and they both look gorgeous.

I hear Christina giving orders to them. "Marlene- hair! Shauna- clothes! Let's get moving people! Four awaits!" I roll my eyes at her. My friends are not normal.

I see Marlene cover the mirror with a sheet and starts to straighten my hair. Shauna is looking through my drawers and I can see the troubled look on her face. Then she starts to look in the new bags of clothes and I see the relief in her face as she sorts through the new garments I own. Christina is talking to Shauna about my color scheme for the night. She eventually comes over with her whole kit of makeup. Oh god, I think to myself.

After what seems like forever, Shauna, Marlene, and Christina are counting down from 10 to pull down the sheet from the mirror. "4...3...2...1!" The sheet comes down and I am speechless. My blonde hair is straightened at the top, then evolved into bouncy, loose curls at the bottom. I have on dark red lipstick with a light pink blush and very dark red eyeshadow. Not to mention, black mascara and a thin line of eyeliner that suits me well. I am wearing the tube top that shows my ravens with red, ripped leggings and the leather skirt I just bought. I also have on red, dangling earrings and black leather boots and a jacket to match the boots.

Christina did not go for noticeable this time. She went for pretty, and it worked. I grabbed my black clutch purse and headed out the door to meet Tobias at his apartment, walking confidently.
