Divergent High {IN EDITING}

Chapter 45

Tris POV:
It's Sunday night. The cheerleaders and I are trying to finish making the brownies.
"Dani! Christina! We need the flour!" I call.
Christina and Dani come racing towards me with the flour.
I laugh and start running but it's too late. They spill the flour all over me.
We all laugh.
"Shauna! Lynn! Marlene! We're ready to put it in the oven!" Christina shouts.
They run over and take it to the oven.
"Now let's start cleaning up." I say.
"Ok."
Two hours later we are getting for bed.
"Tris!" Anna calls.
"Coming!" I call back.
I walk up to her.
"I tried out for soccer." She says sadly.
I nod.
"I made it in!"
"That's great!"
"I know!"
"When is the first game?"
"Next month!"
"We will be there cheering you on!"
"Thanks!" She hugs me.
"Good night."
"Good night."
She jumps in the bed and I turn off the light.
I change into my PJs.
"You guys have your uniforms, right?" I ask them.
"Yea." They all say.
"Good. Now we are set."
"Good night."
"Good night."
Hours later I wake up to a call.
"Hello?"
"Hey."
"Luke?"
"Yes."
"What do you want?"
"Just walk outside."
I walk outside in black shorts and a gray cropped undershirt.
"Yes?"
"At least let me get a hug."
I hug him.
"Now a kiss."
"Nope."
"Anyways. Here." He gives me a necklace and a note.
"I saw it on Caleb's grave. It said, To Tris."
"What were you doing there?"
"Paying my respects."
"Thanks."
I hug him once again.
"Bye Tris. I still love you."
"Bye Lukey."
He chuckles and I laugh.
I walk back to my house. I put the necklace and note in my box for mysterious things.
I can't go back to sleep, so I watch Pretty Little Liar until 6:30.
I go take a shower, curl my hair in ringlets, put on mascara, lip gloss, and put on my cheerleading uniform.
I wake up the other girls and they do what they need to do. They then walk downstairs.
Anna walks downstairs early.
"Good morning!" She says.
"Good morning!" We all say.
We all talk until 7:30.
Anna runs out the door and we pick up the cookies, cupcakes, and brownies and walk out the door to get to school.
We get there early because only the teachers are there.
Tori buys a chocolate cupcake.
Rochelle buys a red velvet cupcake.
The principal buys a chocolate chip cookie.
"Hello lovely ladies. Can I have a vanilla cupcake please?" Marcuas asks us.
We nod.
He hands me a twenty.
I start to pull out change but he stops me and says, "Keep it." He winks and walks away.
"You know he is 30 years old?" Hannah says.
We shake our heads.
Then all our friends walk up to the table.
"Can I have a brownie?" Tobias asks.
I give it to him, he hands me the money and he kisses my cheek.
"Loverboy! Don't distract the captain!" Lynn says.
I blush.
"I want a sugar cookie!" Uriah shouts.
"Uriah." Marlene says in a stern tone.
Uriah kisses Marlene.
"How about now?" He asks.
Marlene blushes and gives him a cookie.
We all laugh.
Zeke gets a chocolate cupcake, Peter gets a cookie, and Will gets a brownie.
More people come and by now we have $750.
We pass our goal and we just leave the rest of the sweets in the teachers' lounge.
Christina and I are late for Chemistry, so we start running.
"Ladies! Just in time. I will let it slide." Marcus says.
"Today we are going to have to start thinking about your chemistry project. You will do anything with any objective you choose. But it must include chemistry." He continues.
I just sit thinking about what I should do for the project.
Then the bell rings and I have never been happier for the bell.
I walk to art.
"Tris can I talk to you?" Tori asks me.
"I want you and a boy to sing a duet for a singing competition. Please?"
I think about it and nod.
"Great! I recommend Four."
My eyes widen and I blush.
"Oh please Tris. I heard him singing to you after the Talent Show. And a little mouth to mouth action."
I blush harder and Tori laughs.
"Four! Come up here please."
He walks up. And she tells him everything leaving out the Talent Show part.
I am still blushing and she just laughs.
I smile and walk back to my seat.
"You look nice." Luke whispers in my ear.
I start blushing again.
The rest of the day is just a headache.
I am walking to the mall with Christina and I see a sign for puppies.
"I want a puppy! Pwease Chrissy! Pwetty Pwease!" I say.
"Yes! I want! one too!" She says.
We walk in the store.
"We would two puppies please." Christina says.
"Pick your puppy." The girl at the front desk says.
I look at all the puppies they have multiple puppies from each category but I only see one baby Husky Pomeranian. That has cream fur. I pick it up.
"I want this one." I say.
"What would you like to name her?" The girl asks.
"Serenity."
She nods and she gives me a whole bunch of paper work.
Christina has a Golden Retriever.
Then we go to the Pet Shop.
I get Serenity a sky blue collar with her name engraved at the back. I put address in the tag. I also buy her a squeaky toy, doggy treats, and dog food.
Christina and I walk out of the mall with our hands full.
When I get to my house, I open the note.
Its say:
I am willing to wait forever.

I open the locket and see T+L.
It was from Luke.
I quickly put it back in the box and lock it.
I bite my lip and think.
Then I get a text.
U owe me-M (Marcus)
No I don't-T
The donation-M
4 will protect me-T

I block him. I am not afraid of Marcus anymore. I pick up Bubble and take her downstairs to play with Serenity.
She starts petting the dog and they start playing and laughing.
Two familiar arms wrap around me.
"Hey Toby."
He kisses my neck. I turn to kiss him.
I pull back.
"The tournament is Saturday." I say.
"And you guys are gonna do great."
I kiss him again.

Marcus barges through the door.
"Tobias! Get off of her!" He yells.
"No!"
He is drunk.
He pulls me away from Tobias. He kisses my neck and I slap him.
He laughs.
Four punches Marcus and they start fighting.
Tobias falls to floor.
I get angry.
I jump on Marcus and start hitting him. He kisses my lips and I punch him in the nose.
I keep punching him.
He blacks out.
I grab the first aid kit and take care of Tobias.
I drag him to couch. He is sleeping.
I lay him on my lap and turn on the TV.
