Triggering Trinity

Sparks

(A/N) This chapter is a little longer than the first and I think things kind of start picking up here :) Also I think the beginning might be triggering and I don't want anyone to be triggered by my account so please do not read if you're easily triggered, and I'll be sure to put up warnings if I think they are in any way harmful. Thank you!

(possible trigger warning)

When will somebody ever ask me if I'm okay? Not because it's their job, but because they care for my well-being. Maybe if someone was actually concerned about what's going on inside my head I would have let them in. Like isn't it crazy that I can look perfectly fine on the outside but be completely broken on the inside. No one having a single clue about what the fuck is going on inside my head; thoughts like landmines. Hating every second and every second after. I just don't understand how someone could feel so empty but yet feel everything at once. I don't get how friends or loved ones can be so oblivious to it.

Let's just say it's one of those days, well actually it's always been one of those days, it's been one of those days for years. I pressed my forehead against the cold shower tiles, trying to calm my nerves. Shower time was the few moments I could have for myself and myself only. It was just nice to contemplate over things with nobody interrupting your thoughts every ten minutes, I felt at content. Then the water shut off.

Really.

Here, they didn't have knobs to turn the water on and off. The nurses at the assistance station would program each persons shower to run, and with that they never let anyone take more than a six minute shower for self-safety reasons.

I pushed the curtain open and grabbed my towel from the towel rack before stepping out of the shower completely. I threw a towel around my body and wrapped one around my hair.

I walked out of the bathroom, heading towards my closet but when I turned, the first thing I saw was a girl sitting on the bed next to mine. Her eyes landed on me, and when they did, they grew wide.

"Uh, sorry" she said quickly while using her hands to cover up her eyes.

"Dude, what the hell? Didn't you hear me in the showe...oh god! You even heard me singing!" I was slightly aggravated. I haven't known her for more than a minute and she already invaded my privacy. She wasn't supposed to be in here, only one person was allowed in the room during shower time.

"I uh, they told me I had to stay in here till Dr. Nolemen came to talk to me..." She spoke so timidly, I could barely hear her. I guess Nathan was right about her being shy.

I guess I shouldn't be too upset with her.

"It's alright, just don't let it happen again, okay?" I again proceeded to retrieve clothes from my closet. "I'm trinity, and, uh, you can take your hands off your eyes. We're both girls, nothing new."

 "Oh. Okay" She removed her hands from her eyes but she didn't look in my direction, she looked flustered and maybe actually a little scared. Her hair was black, falling a little past her shoulders. Her skin light but not too pale. Even though she wasn't looking at me, I could tell her eyes were a light green. She had a good body figure, I kind of envied that because I looked like a stick, and she had curves. She was still wearing scrubs, which is what they gave new arrivals to wear temporarily while their clothes got checked in. She was...pretty.

I guess she felt my eyes on her because she slowly turned her head to look at me. I snapped my head back towards my open closet, pretending like I wasn't just examining her.

I cleared my throat, "Uh, I'm going to get dressed" I said while awkwardly walking back to the bathroom. She just gave a slight nod and looked away at the wall.
