    I barge into the bathroom and run into a stall. I pace back-and-forth trying hard not to have a panic attack. It's getting hard to breathe and my vision is getting blurry.

"My inhaler!" I say patting around looking for it.

I take my phone out my pocket, hands shaking and write to Don to bring me the one he keeps with him and to meet in front of the sinks beside the bathrooms.

I'm hunched over the faucet, my vision going in and out, I hear Adonis running from around the corner.

"Here!" he says putting the inhaler in my mouth, I clicked it and take a deep breath and let out a sigh.

"I don't think I can go back to class, and face everyone, and their judgment right now." I say turning and giving him back the inhaler.

"Yes you can, Taleaz and you know why?"

"Why?" I say narrowing my eyes.

"Because my mom packed your favorite snack today in my lunchbox." he says reassuring me.

"Zebra cakes?"

"Zebra cakes." he says smirking

"You can have it if you can make it to lunch today, you've skipped too many days this year, it's almost over. Just power through these few hours like I know you can." He says smiling at me.

"I guess your right Donnie, thank you. You're a life saver. Literally, I probably would've passed out if it wasn't for you."

I give him a hug I could tell he didn't know whether to hug back or to push me off. We've never hugged before, at least since we were kids. I just really needed this right now.
