Draven stared at the woman blankly. “Is there any chance I could get some pants?” He asked.
Draven stared at the woman blankly. “Is there any chance I could get some pants?” He asked.
"Nope! So don't bother." Mariah smiled at him before returning to her spot to talk to the other guards. "Mariah's kind of hardheaded. You'll get used to it."
He snorted. “I can tell.”
She smiled a little, standing from her spot. "After dealing with her for 2 years, I kind of know what I'm talking about when it comes to her."
“You sure?” Draven didn’t see a trace of the nervous, self-hating girl he had seen only moments ago. Except in her eyes.
She kept her gaze off his own. If she stared into his eyes, she'd break down. Breaking down meant another visit from the doctor. And she really didn't need that. "Yep. Pretty sure."
He smirked slightly. “Whatever you say.” He ran a hand through his hair and groaned. “I need a shower.”
"We all do. Unfortunately, showers aren't for another hour so we're waiting." She shook her thoughts away, lifting her eyes to his.
He looked at her for a moment, then away, guilt suddenly flashing through him. He rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly. “Dang. I feel gross.”
So do I. But for a very different reason. "Yeah, it's a shame. But hey, I've been dealing with it for a couple years, you get used to it."
He shrugged. “I’ve been here for years too, but never in a cell like this. In all my other ones, we got to shower once a day.”
"Nope, they don't trust me. Mine is once every like two or three days." She shrugged, leaning against the wall.
“Why? Do they think you’ll drown yourself?”
"No, they think I'll drown someone else. I'm a bit aggressive with the other prisoners."
“I wouldn’t have guessed,” Draven said with a snort.
"Yeah so I have to wait until everyone else is done so that they don't run the risk of someone dying."
Draven laughed. Actually laughed. “Well, why did they stick me in here with you? I just burn people to death.”
"Because they're hoping if I have a cellmate that they'll calm me down enough to do some more experiments."
“Oh.” His face wrinkled with disgust. “They do the experiments on you too?”
"Course they do. Why wouldn't they?" She raised an eyebrow at him. What did he expect them to do with her?
He shrugged. “Thought you’d be able to get out of them.”
"Nope! Tried to a couple of times. Almost got shot."
"Fun!" He grinned, showing his teeth. "How many times?"
"Five? Maybe six? Don't completely remember. Either way, it was enough times for them to put me in my good old friend Mr. Straightjacket."
Draven snickered. "Wow. And how long have you worn that?"
