Astrid Johnson, the newbie

part 2

i wake up in the morning with a pain in my wrist, i look down to see that i bled through my hoodie. i quickly get up and grab a bandage and go to the bathroom to wrap my wrist, which turns out i forgot to wrap it last night because Vic turned out to be in the bathroom. i quickly wrap my wrist and take my hoodie off since i'm wearing a long sleeve underneath. i make sure that you can't see the bandage and i go to walk out but then Vic walks in.
V: "morning" she smiles
A: "morning.." i look down
V: "are you sure you don't wanna talk about what i saw last night?"
A: "i don't know."
V: "okay, you can talk to me whenever." she smiles
A: "could i get your number?"
V: "yeah of course"
i hand her my phone and she puts her number in and i say thank you and walk out of the bathroom and go to the kitchen to see that Travis is already making breakfast.
A: "want any help?"
T: "i'm okay, thank you though!" he smiles
i go sit down in the same chair i sat in yesterday and just think.

should i talk to her?
no. don't be a burden Astrid.
she doesn't wanna hear your problems.

i snap out of my thoughts when i see more people sitting at the table with me, Vic sits next to me and Maya on the other side of me.
M: "how'd you sleep Astrid?"
A: "i slept okay." you smile
An: "that's good. how are you liking us so far?"
A: "you guys are really nice."
B: "i'm glad you like us"
A: "no i hate you but i like everyone else."
i laugh
B: "hey!"
A: "i'm kidding" i laugh
B: "good" he laughs
everyone finishes eating their food whilst i just sit there with no food on my plate
V: "not hungry?"
A: "not really."
M: "are you sure?" she looks at me
A: "yeah.." i look down
M: "you have to eat Astrid."
A: "i'm just not hungry."
i get up and walk to the bathroom leaving everyone confused except for Maya and Vic.
i get to the bathroom and just sit on the floor, not very long after the door opens. it's Victoria.
V: "what was that about?"
A: ...
V: "talk to me Astrid."
A: "i'm fine i'm just not hungry."
V: "that's not what it seemed like. Maya sounded upset."
A: "it's nothing." i get up and try to walk back to the kitchen but the intercom goes off and we all run to the trucks and get our gear on. we drive to the scene and get out of the truck
M: "Johnson, Montgomery, you're with me for a primary search. let's go!"
we follow behind Maya and get your oxygen mask on.
A: "upstairs or down?"
M: "let's go up"
me and Travis follow closely behind her, as we're walking up the stairs we all hear someone yelling for help, we all quickly run to where the sound is.
?: "HELP!"
A: "what's your name?"
?: "Allen. help me please!"
T: "is there anyone else is the house?"
Al: "no just- just me."
M: "alright let's go."
we help the guy walk down the stairs and quickly get out of the house. we hand him over to the paramedics. i start to feel dizzy and sit against the truck when Maya comes over
M: "you okay?"
A: "yeah. just a bit dizzy."
M: "have some water." she smiles and hands you a bottle of water
A: "thanks." i smile
M: "you should eat. i'm sorry for nagging at you earlier but you really should."
A: "i'll eat when i get home." i smile
M: "you better" she laughs
*time skip to back at the firehouse*
V: "hey you want to come for dinner at my place later?"
A: "i can't sorry. i have plans" you smile
V: "aw okay. maybe next time?"
A: "yeah of course." i smile
i finish packing my things and go out to my car, just as I'm about to get in someone stops me.
M: "hey, wanna come hangout with me?"
A: "uh sure why not." i smile
M: "alright, what's your number?"
she gives me her phone and i put my number in it.
A: "text me the details and i'll be there." i smile
M: "will do" she smiles and walks away

oh my god.
i'm hanging out with her
no. Astrid you can't like her. she's your boss

i get in my car and start it. i drive home thinking about Maya, i open my door and walk in. i shut the door behind me and go up to my room to pick an outfit that's fancy but not too fancy. i pick a red top and a black cropped hoodie with black cargo pants.
