   !!!TW!!!PANIC/ANXIETY ATTACKS/MENTIONS OF PANIC/ANXIETY ATTACK 

  Mumbo darted out of the science room into the hallway looking for Grian. He quickly spotted him in the crowded hallway and tried to get to him but was cut off by X wearing their paper bag. "Mumbo help me please." X pleaded with teary eyes. He looked like they were about to have a panic attack right then and there. So, Mumbo forgot about Grian for a moment and went to help X. Sure they were enemies on the court, but they were schoolmates off  the court. "Yea sure follow me X" Mumbo muttered as he brought X around the corner and into an empty classroom.  He sat X down by a nearby desk as they started hyperventilating. They felt faint and lightheaded from the shortage of breath. "Hey hey, X its ok, i'm right here. What happened explain it to me." he said as he wrapped his arms around X. X protested at first but soon settled down. 

     "S-some jerk pulled my bag o-off in the hallway and mocked me" he cried through snot and tears. "Shh, its ok now you're safe here with me, ok?" Mumbo said in a calm tone, rubbing circles on their back and waiting for X to calm down a bit more. After a minute or two X calmed down enough to explain a bit more but before they could start, they heard footsteps before the door opend to revel Grian. "X! There you are, when you didn't come to class on time, I knew something was-" he stopped mid-sentence when he noticed Mumbo sitting there next to X. The two locked eyes and blushed a bit before Mumbo looked away and moved to get up. "I should go-" he tried to say before X pulled him back down. "No Mumbo please stay" they uttered in a soft tone. "Yea Mumbo stay, maybe you can explain to me what happened" Grian said as he plopped down close to the two of them, closer to Mumbo though, and look back and forth at the two. Mumbo sat back down and turned to Grian and started to explain how Xisuma came to him for help and how he said a kid pulled their bag off and made fun of them in front of everyone.

     When Mumbo finished Grian looked furious and turned to Xisuma. "It was Sapnap again, wasn't it?" he said in a rather demanding tone. Mumbo only heard that tone of voice on the court when coach was mad at them, so he knew Grian was pissed. Xisuma hesitantly nodded still snuffling and puffy eyes, not that you could really see it. "Oh, that bloody git, I'm going pound his face in so much you won't even recolonize him!" Grian hissed slapping his fist on the floor.

     "Erm, maybe you should calm down mate." Mumbo muttered under his breath; a bit afraid. "Oi why don't you go back to class, pretty boy!" Grian Exclaimed, making Mumbo blush at the pet name. "You've never had to worry about being picked on by Sapnap, he bloody respects you!" Grian snapped throwing his hands up in the air exasperatedly. Mumbo only sighed in response. "Yea I guess so. But you're right, we should get back to class." he droned as he stood up and held a hand out for Grian to take. Grian reluctantly took it and for some reason Mumbo felt flushed feeling his hand in Grian's, he almost didn't want to let go.
