No POV.
Gregory had arrived to the office with Evan in his arms, who still was gripping him tightly. It made Gregory smile, looking at the sleeping boy. When he finally made it to the nurses office, he gently set Evan down on the bed. When he tried to pull away from Evan, he realized he had the same problem he had in the cafeteria.
'Jeez, Evan really doesn't want to let go.' He chuckled a little. He motioned the lunch attendant to give him his backpack. She did what he asked for, as he unzipped his backpack, and pulled out the Fredbear plushie.
Gregory could've swore he saw two little white dotted eyes in the plushie, but thought it was his imagination. He put the plush in between him and Evan, as the latter, then released his grip from Gregory, and focused its grip on the plush.
Gregory was smiling watching the boy cuddling the plush, he also felt a sense of relief.
'At least he's doing well...' Gregory thought. He looked at the lunch attendant, who smiled.
"I'm so glad your trying to become Evan's friend. It breaks my heart to see such an incredible boy, be treated so poorly. Today was even more painful than before. Thank you for helping him with his panic attack." The lunch attendant said. Gregory nodded, and told her it wasn't a big deal, and that it's the normal thing anyone would do.
"Maybe we might need to call you incase this ever happens again." The attendant joked, as both of them shared a chuckle.
"Yeah, it's probably for the best, my adoptive mom goes through some panic attacks, so I know how it is, and what to expect." Gregory said smiling. The lunch attendant looked a little surprised.
"Wow... you mother must be very proud of you." She said. Gregory giggled.
"I guess you can say that?" The two stayed in silence for a little, before Gregory spoke up.
"So... is it okay if I stay here, wait for Evan to wake up?" Gregory asked. The lunch attendant sighed.
"I'll go to the office, and tell them you're staying in the nurses office. I better not hear, or see any funny business going on in here, while I'm gone." She warned, while Gregory just nodded. She left the room leaving Gregory, and the sleeping Evan in the room.
"Sigh*... this not how I imagined my first day of school...". As Gregory then pulled out his phone, to text Vanessa.
Gregory- Vanessa! Guess what's happening!
Vanessa- What happened? Did you get in trouble? I swear if you did.
Gregory- no I didn't get in trouble!
Vanessa- so what happened?
Gregory tells Vanessa everything. How he met Evan, him being mute, him being bullied, and having a panic attack at lunch.
Vanessa- well... that's amazing for what you did for him. He will definitely never forget what happened. I'm glad you took my advice, is he your friend yet?
Gregory- I don't know. I'm waiting for him to wake up.
Vanessa- Okay. Well when he wakes up, you better tell him what happened. I gotta go, break ended. Love you Gregster.
Gregory- Love you too Mom.
Gregory exited the messages, sighing, taking a look at Evan's sleeping body.
'Well I'm probably going to be here for a while. ' Gregory concluded, as he plugged his headphones in his phone, and played some music to pass the time.

Evan's POV
I felt myself laying on a hard/soft surface, holding onto something. I open my eyes a little, and see on in some sort of a doctors room. I was even holding my plushie... how weird.
'Am I in the nurses office?' I asked myself. I turned my head and groaned in annoyance at the light above me. Then I heard a gasp, and footsteps coming towards me. My fear instinct kicked in, and I quickly put my arms around my head.
"Evan! You're awake!" A familiar voice said. My eyes widened, and I slowly slid my arms down to look at him. It was Gregory?
'Why is he here? Wait... oh.' I looked down, tears coming down my face.
'I can't believe that happened... now Gregory is probably going to make fun of me for having a panic attack...' though however he felt relieved that Gregory was here, for some reason he felt... calm near him....
"Evan... why are you crying? Is it because of what happened at lunch?" Gregory asked me. I nodded my head faintly. I heard a sigh, and I tensed a little, waiting for the insults.
"Evan... if you think that I would make fun of you for having a panic attack at lunch. Then you would be wrong." Gregory started. I looked at him with wide eyes.
"I don't think you really remember this, but when you were having a panic attack, I helped you through it. I saw how scared you were, so I hugged you close to me. Everyone saw us, but I didn't care. You needed the help more than anyone there. I brought you here when you finally calmed down, and slept. So... I just want you to know. I won't ever hurt you, that's not what friends do." Gregory spoke softly.
My eyes were staring at Gregory's face, scouring for any deception.
But there was none.
He wanted to help me...
But...
"I won't ever hurt you, that's not what friends do." His words repeated in my head, over, and over again. I couldn't believe what he had said....
He...
wanted to be friends...
With me.
His words felt so... comforting.
'Maybe...
Maybe...
I can...
Trust him.'
Cut.
