He rubbed her back to calm her down and murmured in her ear, "now I'm with you, Kiddo, and I'm sorry." Her ears were carving to hear these words from his mouth.

He was fighting back tears after seeing her like this because his heart was crying in pain, and the reason for her pain was only him; this guilt was slowly killing him.

She instantly calmed down, feeling his warm arms around her. It seemed like she got her breath back. She slightly slipped her hands into his jeans pockets, taking a deep breath of relief.

She couldn't breathe properly if he wasn't with her or if he was angry with her, and at that moment he was with her, his arms securely wrapped around her, all her stress vanished like magic, and she felt alive again. This was the power of true love.

Ethan also got his breath back after seeing his sister finally fine, but he was shocked by the way his best friend calmed down his sister. He had no idea that they both were deeply in love with each other and that Cole was the reason for his sister's peace.

Cole decided never to be angry with her because he couldn't even bear the thought of seeing his kiddo in this state again. If he ever hurt her again, he would undoubtedly kill himself.

He didn't want to leave her, but pulled apart from her as he saw Ethan's expression, and she felt uneasy again after not feeling his warm arms around her.

"I know that in times of stress, a hug works like magic, which is why I hug her like this. I hope you didn't mind." Cole told him immediately so that he wouldn't doubt him.

"No Cole! In fact, thank you for making her fine." He uttered, placing his hand on his shoulder. He had complete faith in his best friend, which was why he didn't doubt him.

"Sweetie, why are you getting so much stress because of the exam?" Ethan asked after sitting beside her and hugging her.

"It's not in my control." She murmured, looking at Cole from the corner of her eyes. She was feeling much better to see the love of her life in front of her eyes.

He mouthed, "sorry," to her. She just stared at him with her sorrowful eyes.

"Now lie down and sleep," Ethan said, kissing her forehead before lying her down properly.

Cole was just staring at her with deep guilt in his eyes.

"Cole, it's too late, why don't you stay here tonight." Listening to Ethan's words, he came back to the earth. "You can go to my room and sleep," he suggested.

He wasn't feeling like going from there, he just wanted to be with her, take her small fragile body in his protective arms, make her feel alright and say sorry to her for hurting her.

But he couldn't sleep with her because of Ethan. He was feeling so helpless, he just felt like telling him everything, how much he loved his sister, but it wasn't the right time to tell Ethan about their relationship.
