Divergent Faction High

Chapter 37 (Tris POV)

I sit in front of Christina's vanity in her room, ready to be beautified. She spills out the make up, some of it falling to the ground.

"Be ready to be FIERCE!" She snaps her fingers.

She takes my hair from its bun and makes me bang my head a few times, so it looks messy. She combs it and straightens it for me. I have on a bright shade of lipstick and my cheeks are contoured with blush and bronzer. My eyes pop out more with the eyeliner and eyeshadow. I look striking.

Noticeable.

"You're welcome." She says, "My job here is done!" She does a bow and I clap for her.

"Thanks Chris." I say while hugging her.

"Now it's time to choose an outfit." She says playfully and pulls me into her walk in closet.

She chooses a black leather jacket and a slightly tight, black maxi dress.

"You look so gorgeous Tris!" She squeals.

"Thanks!" I chirp and hug her.

She drives me to my house again and I walk back in, slowly so I don't walk in on something. I see my parents and Caleb on the couch, having a heated a heated argument. I hide behind a column, and listen to everything.

"I can't believe you slept with Susan, in our house!" My dad shouts, which in startled by because he never shouts.

"Young man, you are on punishment until further notice do you understand?" My mom says, not yelling, but on the verge of it.

"Oh c'mon! It's not like Tris isn't out having sex with Tobias!"

"Don't you dare bring your sister into this!" My dad shouts.

"It's true! You haven't noticed the hickeys on her neck at dinner? Or how she constantly is wearing scarves to hide her neck?"

"Maybe she had a scarf on because it was quite breezy outside!" My mom says. I snicker at that.

I have been trying to hide the hickies Tobias has been giving me lately. I get too into the kissing and don't even notice the hickey until I find a mirror.
I don't mind that Tobias has been giving me them, they're the only form of bruising that is a bruise of affection than harm.

I slowly turn from the column and walk towards the living room. Everything is a standstill until my father speaks again.

"Hello Tris." My father says calmly before clearing his throat.

"Hi dad." I greet him.

"You look nice sweetheart, are you going out somewhere?" My mom says, staring at my outfit.

"Umm, yeah, actually I am going out soon. Tobias is taking me somewhere."
I admit.

Caleb scoffs and turns his head away. I roll my eyes.

"What's going on?" I ask, even though I just heard everything.

"Well, since you're not ashamed of it, we may as well tell her, Caleb. I found your brother and that sweet girl from two houses down, Susan, on this couch, having sex." My dad spits. He's furious. I wouldn't want to see his reaction if I told him me and Tobias have had sex multiple times.

"Tris, be honest, if you were in this situation, what would you do?" Caleb says, putting a smug look on his face.

Time to act innocent.

"I'd listen to what mom and dad would say to me and I'd deal with the consequences. Caleb you should know that there will be circumstances that won't make them happy." I say.
