🚨I'm going to make this slightly angsty bc I owe it to my friend since she tried to kill herself and I stopped her. And also beware. Trigger Warning involved🚨Olivia Parker wasn't your normal child. Her parents died when she was 5 in a plane crash, and her uncle was murdered at 13 years old. And on top of that, she was bitten by one of Oscorp's dangerous radioactive spiders, which not to mention, was labeled as extremely dangerous according to the news. But now, using these powers, she became the vigilante known as Spider-Girl. She attended Midtown High School of Science and Technology, had 2 friends that go by the name of Ned and Mj, and was extremely smart. But unfortunately, her powers had some downsides. Her senses were dialed up to 11, meaning that an extreme amount if noise or brightness could cause a sensory overload. That also included her hearing, which would allow her to hear anything that's nearby, such as the patterns of one's heartbeat. But on the fortunate side. She proved herself to be extremely smart, so when Tony Stark sent out an internship test, it was no surprise to her that she would pass it. She even trusted him enough to tell him and the avengers that she was Spider-Girl! But there was one secret she didn't want to tell him. With the amount of trauma that she had endured, she was prone to many panic attacks and had PTSD. It has gotten so bad that she has started cutting. The main reason for that is because something terrible happened to her at 12 years old. Now with that, lets get onto the story.
(Olivia's POV) I woke up one morning with the unmistakable blazing of the sun shining directly in my eyes. Even though I tried to give myself a few more minutes, it was no use trying since I had to get ready for school. After managing to drag myself out of bed, I had quickly went into the restroom to take a shower and do my makeup afterwards. As I had stepped out of the shower, I had started to dry my hair and put it in a side braid. I had taken a glance at the mirror, noting the lines that were visible on my arms and had started to trace them with my fingers, feeling slightly proud I haven't done it in a few weeks. Once I finished doing my hair, I put lotion on, and began to choose my outfit for today, being a red/pink skirt, with a long sleeve on top with a gray sweater.

I went downstairs to find May, but instead found a note saying she had to work the extra shift at the hospital and that she wouldn't be back until tomorrow.
Noting I had 45 minutes until school began, I decided to make some pancakes for breakfast. I had gotten the ingredients out for them, but in the process gotten flour in my face, causing me to have flashbacks to the warehouse.
🚨TW: Dust everywhere. Can't breathe. Blood filling my mouth. Tears streaming down my cheeks. I fell down to the floor, trying to grab onto the ledge of the counter in order to make it to the bathroom. I had shakily managed to stand myself up and made my way to the restroom. Once inside, I find the object I was looking for. My razor. I quickly took the plastic covering off of it, and started to drag it across my arms, feeling the relief from each cut. TW OVER🚨 I put the razor in it's case, bandaged my arms, and quickly went back downstairs to the kitchen to clean up the flour. After that, I continued making the pancakes and ate them before grabbing my stuff and heading to school with 15 minutes left to spare.
(3rd Person) Once Olivia made it to school, she was met with Mj who motioned for her to come over. "Hey where's Ned? I noticed that he isn't here today", she asked Mj. "Oh he's sick with the flu. It appears to be going around a lot", she explained. She and Olivia continued to talk until the bell rang, snapping them back to reality suddenly. "C'mon, we're going to be late for class!", Mj explained while grabbing Olivia's arm, causing her to wince slightly. It turns out Mj noticed her wincing, but didn't say anything about it.
(Mj's Pov) i had grabbed Olivia's arm as I pulled her towards the building and I could've sworn I saw her wincing at the sudden action. I had started to get suspicious of her behavior because she was pulling at the cuffs of her hoodie. She tried to pull her arm back and started scratching at it and was grabbing it in pain. And then I saw it. Blood. "Hey Olivia, your arm is bleeding a little bit. Can I help clean it?", I asked her. She looked at her arms and told me "Oh no I'm good I can clean myself. Oh boy, I gotta go!", she said nervously.
(Olivia's pov) Crap. I must've reopened my cuts on accident when Mj grabbed my arm. Thankfully my speed healing would help with it though. I had tried to run away, but Mj had grabbed my bookbag and motioned me too sit down with her. "Olivia, I need to to be completely honest. And I won't get mad if you are. Please tell me, are you cutting?", she asked close to tears. Instead, I just stared down at the floor in shame and quietly whispered out, "Yes, and don't be mad."
A/N: I originally thought this would be a good idea for a separate book but I changed my mind and decided to put it on here lol.
