After another seven minutes of protecting the middle and getting several kills the game was over. Noir had a won two categories he was last standing and he had the most kills by a long shot. Noir thought that meant only him and Trinity will be going forward but actual the second person left standing was also allowed to go forward. Noir thought this was fair because Noir had thirty four kills and no one else came close to that.
Noir walked into the gym to wait, but to his surprise when he entered Shan was already waiting for him.
"I totally did better then you." Shan exclaimed while walking with Noir.
"In your dreams maybe." Noir said this joyfully making sure not to sound as prideful as his friend. Noir then started walking towards the exit of the gym with Shan.
They both walked into the boys locker room next to the gym. Noir was fairly sweaty from his battle. He casually walked into the shower while talking to Shan.
...
Trinity was still flustered from what Noir said but she was happy that she still placed top three. So she decided to go and take a shower . She walked into the locker room and stripped quickly because she didnt want any girl to see her body because she was very self conscious.
After showering for a while she started to hear voices and got nervous. The person used the stall next to her but that's not what made her nervous. The voices she heard sounded like Noir the boy she just met and some other boy she had never met.
Trinity was so flustered she walked into the wrong locker room. She quickly turned off the shower and started to put on her clothes. While she was doing this she couldn't help listening to the conversation Noir was Having.
"This girl was so beautiful man you should have seen her." Noir said with joy in his voice.
" What did she look like, maybe I know this Trinity." Shan said knowing he knew way more then Noir.
" Okay her hair was blonde and wavy like a river of sunshine, Her skin was clear of any imperfections and as soft as a blanket of snow, and dude her eyes were like rubies that were invaluable." Noir said this with confidence until Shan cut him off by saying." Dude stop while you still have your pride, your starting to sound like a girl." After saying this the other showers turned off.
"I know but it's weird just the thought of her gets my heart racing." Noir says while leaveing the shower.
Trinity peaks her head out, she's even more flustered then before. She looks and sees Noir standing their shirtless and falls back not thinking someone as thin as him could have been so jacked. She slips back from surprise and falls. Trinity thinks "This is going to be a very bad habit."
Shan hears someone fall and calls out are you okay. Noir leaves he wanted to eat some food before the next fight.
"You okay in there." Shan calls out one more time. Trinity instinctually says" Yeah I'm fine no need to worry." shen then puts a hand over her mouth.
"Are you lost little lady." Shans says holding back a laugh. Trinity stands and opens the door with a very embarrassed look. Shan in shook says " You wouldnt happen to be named Trinity."
Trinty starts to ramble the reason why she was in there ignoring Shans question.
" Hey it's okay my lips are sealed on one condition." Shan says looking into Trinitys eyes. "If you have feelings for my boy go tell him." Shan points to the door while saying this.
"Thank you soo much but I cant tell him I'll get flustered." Trinity says sadly. "If I could I would" Trinity thought to herself.
"That's the price you tell him or I will." Shan says unwaveringly while pointing to the door.
Trinity walked out quickly her head hanging low. Trinity had never felt this way before and didnt know how to put it into words. She then sat down on the bleachers trying to think of a way to tell him.
...
"I'll have rabbit stew." Noir said to the lunch room staff who were for now in the gym.
Noir looked back looking for a place to sit when he saw Trinity with her face in her hands. "can you make that two please." He said looking back at the lunch lady.
Noir with two stews in his hands walked towards Trinity and sat next to her. He put both stews down and then poked Trinitys shoulder gently.
Trinty jumped up in surprise then when she saw Noir she calmed down and then started to get nervous knowing what she had to do.
"Hope your hungry." Noir said while handing her a stew. Trinity was genuinely surprised by this kind act then realized she should say something. " you thank so nice." Trinty started to rant in her head how she's an idiot.
Noir knew what she said was an accident so he didnt think it was a big deal. He wanted her to know he didnt care she messed up so he said " You'll want to eat the stew before it gets cold." Trinty then remembered the food and quietly began eating. No matter how hard she had tried though she couldnt tell him her feelings.
Shan was in the background the whole time proud of Noir who has never properly flirted with a girl before .He thought" let's hope this is talent and not just beginners luck."
