Some of this at the beginning would have been in the last chapter, but for some reason something happened and it got cut off, so I added some into here. Hope you guys like it :D

Tris's P.O.V

We walk to the diner, while we look around at all the buildings. Once we arrive, Christina leads me to a table almost full with people talking and laughing. Christina clears her throat and everyone turns to her.

"Everyone this is Tris. She new and she seems like an awesome person." A chorus of 'hi' and 'hey' go around and some people wave. I blush at all of the attention and look away so they don't see. Christina leads me to the last two empty chairs.

As I sit and look at the menu, a voice says across from me, "Well we meet again." I look up from the menu and see Four. I smile at his presence.

Christina introduces me to everyone, going around pointing to each. (I don't feel like I should explain the names in detail, but the people are Zeke, Uriah, Four, Marlene, Will, Shauna, and Lynn.) Once she finishes, we all pick out what we want to eat. I'm not to hungry, so I just go straight to the desert section.

"You should try the Dauntless cake. You haven't lived if you haven't tried it." Four says. I take a glance up and see him staring into my eyes and smirking. I quickly glance back down. The waiter comes and takes our orders. She starts flirting with Four, but he just waves her off. Everyones just talking about random stuff, and when the group laughs I laugh with them, but I'm not paying attention to them. I feel Four's eyes on me, ever since I sat at the table. Soon the waiter comes back with our food. She sees Four looking at me, and almost 'acidetaly' spills my cake on to me, but Christina saves it. When I'm about to take my first bite, everyone stops eating and looks at me expectantly, I see next to Zeke, Uriah has his phone out recordoing me.

"Can I help you?" I ask.

"We want to see you take your first bite of Dauntless cake." Uriah says.

I roll my eyes and take a bite. I drop my fork, my mouth gaping at how good it is.

"I-I have no words for how good this is." Everyone erupts at the table laughing, getting a couple glances from other tables, but they don't care. I smile when I see Four staring at me with a big goofy grin plastered on his face. Maybe I can come out of my bubble for these guys.

We finish dinner, and Christina drags me to a karaoke place, with the group trailing right behind us. I try resisting, because I know that they will make me sing, but Christina has too much of a tight grip on me. I stumble into the building and look around at it. It has a sorda fashion run way type of stage with a bunch of booths, high tables, and a bar in the way back. Christina pulls me up to the music stand and sighs my name on it and hands me the pen to write a song. I groan.

"Just do it! I'll be with the gang. Think about it. Wait until you get called to go." Christina says. She races off to the gang before I can say anything else and they all look at me. I blush and turn away thinking of a song. I put some thought into it a then wrote it down. I waited for my turn, people keep going. I thought one of the people that sung really good was a girl named Sarah. Finally my turn comes up and as I'm walking up, the device that plays the song, says, "Now singing to Ain't It Fun by: Paramore, Tris. I walk up and wait for the lyrics to come.

I don't mind.

Once I finish, the crowd was silent. it was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Then the audience whistled, clapped, and stomped their feet. I felt my cheeks growing really hot and raced off the stage and out of the building, hearing gasps behind me, but I just kept running. Running from all my problems.
