AN: Sorry it's been so long since I've written. 9th grade is way harder than I thought it would be. I've been really busy with end of the year tests and studying for them…. I hope this chapter makes up for it since it's the longest I've ever written for this story. And as for the people that are picky about the plot, this is fanfiction, key word fiction, it does not have to go with the plot. Thanks for all of the reviews please keep reading.J
Disclaimer: I own nothing. That all belongs to S.M. L All I own is the plot and the other characters.
Chapter 5: Getting to Know Each Other
BPOV
After that stupid siren- bell thing went off the doctor walked in and told us that we were going to have shock treatments after breakfast and told us to put on the hospital scrub- looking things and then knock on the door 3 times when we were done. After we got dressed and knocked on the door he came into the room. I said, "So when are we…." then Alice finished for me, " going to eat breakfast?" The doctor looked shocked for a minute before he said, " We need to wait with Star for another 30 minutes so the cafeteria can clear out, so that way you can go with her, unless-" We cut him off saying, "No! That's fine. We can wait." We said this at the same time again. We sure have been saying things at the same time a lot since we got here. I don't think we've said this many things together since we were 10 years old. The doctor said Star could come in here if she wanted to as long as it was ok with us. We told him that it would be great if she could come in here. So, after she got dressed- she was wearing the same things we were- she came into our room. When she came in I asked, "Why do you eat breakfast alone?" She looked down, hesitating. I said "You don't have to answer if you don't want to." She looked up and gave me a small smile and said, " It's OK. I eat alone because I have to." "Why?" Me and Alice said at the same time. Star looked shocked for a moment and said, "Wow, you two do that a lot. The reason is because of my ability, besides the one I told you about, I can also feel people's emotions and I feel like I'm going to explode from the outside in if I'm around too many people at one time." So that's why she was so isolated from everyone when we got here. "So is that why you were sitting as far away from everyone as possible when we got here yesterday?" Alice asked. Star looked at me and Alice and said, " Yeah, and there's one more thing." "What?" Me and Alice said together… again. This is starting to get annoying now. We haven't said this many things together since we were toddlers. Star said, " When my mood changes so do the highlights in my hair." Me and Alice both said, " Us too" at the same time again. We looked at each other annoyed because it was getting on our nerves and we didn't know how we were doing it. As soon as we finished that thought the siren went off and this time all 3 of us groaned and said, " I hate that thing" at the same time. The doctors looked at us and shook their heads trying to hide their smiles. We looked at them and said, " Let's get going!" This time the doctors looked at us shocked. We were pretty shocked ourselves. Only me and Alice had been able to say full sentences together. Then a thought came to mind. When were you born?" I asked Star. She and Alice looked confused, trying to find out where I was going with this. " July 17. Why?" She asked. "That's the same day that me and Alice were born. What time were you born on July 17?" I asked. Star looked confused but answered my question. " 4:15 in the afternoon." she said. Me and Alice were shocked as were the doctors since they knew what time we were born at. Star looked so confused so me and Alice started to explain to her that she was born on the same day as me and Alice and just a minute after me and a minute before Alice. When we were done explaining Alice started to pout and I asked her what was wrong. Said," I'm still the baby." she said, still pouting. Me and Star just laughed and told it was okay. She perked up pretty quick after that. Then Star's doctor decided to say something, "we still have to get you 3 to breakfast if you don't want to be late to your first treatment." We all looked at him and said, "what if we do want to be late?" "Then your treatments will be that much worse since the people here think that if you're late then the more pain you get the more you will remember not to be late." he explained. All 3 of us practically ran out of the room after that so we weren't late to our treatments. "Me and Mitch here will go get you 3 some food while find some seats for all of us to sit in." We all caught on to how he worded that sentence but before we could say anything our doctors were already on their way to get our food. While we found a seat I asked star if she knew what her doctor's name was and she said he never told her his name. After we sat down and our doctors gave us our food- if you can even call it that- we started talking again. I asked Star's doctor a question that has been bugging me since I met him. "What is your name?" I asked him with pure curiosity. "My name is William." he answered. After that me, Alice and Star started talking again and we found out that we were all born in the city of Star, Mississippi at the same hospital. These are way too many details to be a coincidence. Then I noticed that Star looks kind of like me and Alice. "Were you adopted?" I asked Star. She looked at me and said, "yeah. Why?" "Alice look at Star, really look at her do you see any similarities between us and her?" I asked. Alice looked at Star long and hard and then she gasped. Star looked so confused in that moment, but me and Alice were too shocked to explain to her why we were so shocked. The doctors looked at all 3 of us and gasped. Then Mitch said, " You 3 could be triplets separated at birth." We were all shocked because that would explain why we were all born in the same city, at the same hospital, at almost the exact same time, and looked like each other. "That is so cool!" All 3 of us squealed at the same time. After we were done eating we all got up and walked down the hall to the room of our treatment for today. When we came to a huge metal door the doctors stopped. We looked up at them confused. Mitch and William looked at us sadly and said, "This is where your first treatment is." All of us just looked at the door warily without moving an inch. After a few minutes the doctors opened the door and ushered us into the room.
