That night, Dan wasn't home at 7, so that left Trinity to sit at home in a very big empty house, left on her own to make supper. Luckily, there was a oven pizza in the freezer, so she made that, careful not to make a mess. She left teh rest of the pizza on the counter, in case her dad wanted some when she got home.
She headed up to her room, to finish putting the rest of her clothes away. After finished that she turned on her laptop, wanting to check her email, and to see in any of her friends were on, very bored being home alone. On nights when she lived with her mom and her mom was at work, she would head down to the cafe and help out, it gave her something to do, but now, there was nothing. She had no new emails and none of her friends were online, so she sighed about to turn off the computer. But before she did, she noticed someone on, and that someone was Nathan. She almost had an urge to talk to him, she missed him. She clicked his name, and started to type when she heard somone come home. She turned off her computer and raced to the stairs, in case it wasn't her dad. But fortunatly, it was.
"Hi," she said to him from midway down the stairs.
"Hey Trinity, I brought home some supper," he said, holding up a couple bags of take out.
"I had some supper, and you said you'd be home at 7, and look, its 9:20," she said, shaking her head and retreating back to her room.
"Sorry," he said from the kitchen, "It was a big day," he called after her.
"Whatever"
The next day an identical note was on the kitchen counter, this time saying he promised to be home at 7. Trinity didn't know what she was going to do that day though, having nothing planned at all. She thought about heading down to Karen's but Lucas might be there so she decided against that. Then she thought about the River Court, but she decided against that too, incase either of her brothers were there. She had started watch a couple movies but got bored of that quickly, so she decided to go rollerblading over the the river court, just to see if anyone was there.
But before she left, she felt her wrist starting to hurt. Ever since a couple of years ago when she had sprained it, it always acted up. She went up to her room in search of her wrist brace, which she found in her basketball bag. She slipped it on, and headed back downstairs, and headed out on her rollerblades. She did pass the river court, and she saw Lucas and all the people he usually played with over there. She had known their names once, but now, they were all gone from her knowledge.
She sighed, seeing her brother make a few baskets she left, feeling so bad about yesterday. She started down the street, almost getting hit by a car on the way causing her to fall on the sidewalk, which had someone she knew driving. It was that cheerleader Lucas had gone out with a bit, Brandy or something. The car stopped after she passed, probably want to know if she was okay.
"Hey are you okay?" she asked, rushing over to her.
"Yah, I'm okay, I shouldn't have been on the road anyway," Trinity said, looking up at her.
"Aren't you the other Scott?" the driver asked her, with raised eyebrows.
"If that means Lucas and Nathan's little sister, yes I'm her, it's Trinity by the way not the other Scott," she said, in an annoyed way, she hated being to known to people as a Scott.
"Alright, hi Trinity, I'm Brooke," she said in a very energetic way, helping her up.
"I knew that, your head cheerleader right? The party girl?"
"That's me, why don't we make a deal though, you don't call me party girl and I won't call you the other Scott, okay?" Brooke smiled at her, and she smiled back weakly.
"Alright, it's a deal then," Trinity said, thinking that the girl in front of her wasn't as bad as she heard. Her smiled faded, seeing her brother finish his game, she wanted to leave.
"Life got you down?" Brooke asked, both of them taking a seat on a near bench, well it was more like Brooke following her to the bench.
"I just blew up at Lucas yesterday, and I didn't mean too, I was just well..upset and I must have taken it out on him,"
"Don't worry, life isn't always on your side, believe me, I've had days like that, but you may have a chance to make it up to him you know"
"What do you mean?"
"Well he is obviously heading this way right now, and both of you can't get home too fast, with you on those amazing rollerblades and him on his feet, it just yells time for talking," she said, motioning for Lucas to come over. Trinity smiled a bit, "Thanks,"
"Anytime," Brooke said with her signature smile, as Lucas came over, "I'll leave you too alone," she said heading back to her car, and driving off.
"Do I want to know?" Lucas said, starting to walk with his sister.
"Probably not," she smiled.
"As long as she wasn't teaching you her party methods, It's all good,"
"Believe me, she wasn't, but I do wanna talk," Trinity said, looking up at him as she rolled along beside him.
"I'm hear to listen, go ahead,"
"Ok, I just want to say I'm sorry for yesterday, I took all the anger bottled up out on you, and I didn't mean too, and I always need someone to talk to now, with my mom gone and Nathan..well... we aren't on speaking terms right now...and I'm just sorry!"
He gave her a hug, knowing she needed one, "Don't worry, we can always talk, alright?"
"Yah, thanks Luke,"
"Ok moving on, hows the life of living with Dan Scott treating you?"
"Not bad, but it's not the best, he came home late last night, and left early this morning, and it's so weird always being home alone in such a big house,"
"You can always come hang at the cafe, okay?"
"Yah, thanks Luke,"
Trinity got home at about 5 and what do you know? Dan wasn't home, as usual. Trinity decided to call her mom but she wasn't home or she wasn't answering her cell phone at all. She sighed and gave up on that, thinking of something she could do for supper. She had no ideas at all so she settled on leftover pizza from the night before.
Once again, she had nothing at all to do. She flopped onto the couch, looking for movies to watch but there was nothing. She moved to the dvd collection, and she settled on Cheaper By the Dozen. She needed a dose of family, and this was the perfect movie for that, and the fact that Tom Welling was in it was definitly an upside.
Her father didn't be home by 7 like he 'promised' in his note, not that it surprised Trinity. She was onto her second movie now, this time it being Grease, which was on tv. She loved this movie just because of the singing. It was about 10 o'clock when her dad showed up, a new record for him. This time is was different though, he showed up with a girl, a girl about half his age. She looked about 23, and both of them looked very, very drunk.
Dan didn't even notice his daughter looking at him, he just paid attention to the girl on his arm. He kept kissing her and then he pulled his bottle of scotch out of his jacket, and drinking it all. She laughed along with him, then they both walked upstairs, probably to his bedroom. Trinity was horrified of what she had just seen, and really upset. She couldn't believe it, her father had been very sober for a long time now, and she had been proud of him. But now, he was drinking and acting very weird. She couldn't take it, hearing loud noises from upstairs, she bolted from the house. She was in shock, she believe what she had seen, it was so wrong. She didn't know where to go, except one place stood out in her mind, Karen's.
She showed up at Karen's and she didn't see her brother in there, but he might have just been behind the counter. She walked up to the counter, seeing Jake there luckily, not Haley.
"Hey Jake?" she said, getting his attention.
"Hey...Trinity?" he took a guess, with a smile.
"Right, good guess," she laughed.
"I do my best, what can I do for you?"
"Is Luke here?"
"No, he's out with someone, I don't know who, just someone,"
"Alright, thanks anyway, I've got to go though, bye,"
"See yah," Jake called after her.
Outside, it had started to rain and Trinity didn't know where to go. She didn't want to go back home, and since Lucas was no where is sight, she was clueless. She was getting drenched too, just to make it worse. One thing popped into her head, and her heart. Nathan's. It was about 10:30 now, and by the time she got there it was 10:45. She hoped greatly he was there and she had high hopes, since the lights were on. She slowly walked up to his apartment, and waited at the door for a bit, suddenly missing her brother so much. She knocked on the door, and waited. Moments later, Nathan opened the door, very surprised to see his sister there, soaking wet.
"Trinity?"
(hah! thats all for now! heehee, not too cliffy but cliffy enough! i need to know if you guys wanna make this a brucas story or not, becuz i think i mite and then a bit of Jayton on the side? let me know and remember if you have any ideas, let me know!!! had to have some jake in there, i just watched the perfect score)
