•Tom's P.O.V•

After what happened between Harper and Abby, I decided to just let them both do their thing and sort it out when they both were ready. I was in the spare guest room when I could hear Harper, to what seemed like a nightmare and I went to go and check in on her, but when I came out of the room, Abby had told me to go back and that she wanted to see Harper.

After some time I decided that I wanted to see how Harper was doing but I stood by the frame and could hear both Abby and Harper chatting, that's when I showed my face.

"I hope that I ain't interrupting anything"

"No Tom, you're not interrupting, please come in and sit down"

I sat down on the bed and we just hugged, after some time we pulled apart and looked at the clock to see it was only 6am, fuck it we needed Starbucks and that's where we headed before heading to the campus.

Once arriving to campus, everyone was looking at Harper, but I could remember that she had told me that this was the exact same as the day after she got raped.

"Harper, you okay"

"Yeah but I don't understand why everyone is looking at me, I'm starting to feel like I can't breathe"

"Harper, just breathe"

Unfortunately Harper's panic attack got worse as soon as she seen Ben, so we all had headed straight to the ladies restroom

"Harper, follow me, we'll head to the ladies toilet"

"Abby, I'm finding it really hard to breathe"

"Tom, can you go and get Hemmy and Principal Thomas and hurry"

"Okay, I'm going now"

I headed to go to Hemsworth's office and then to Principal Thomas' office, I also texted Chris as well just keep his ears open for Hemmy to see him.

"Hemmy"

"Tom is everything okay"

"No it's not, Harper is having a panic attack and she's asked for you, something to do with Ben"

As soon as I said that, Chris got up and followed me to get Principal Thomas.

"Principal Thomas, we need you it's to do with Harper and something about Ben"

I could tell that there was extreme worry on his face and instantly got up, so we all ran to get back to Harper.

Hemsworth hugged Harper and she just let all her tears out, Hemmy knew that Harper would want Chris and that's what happened, minutes later Chris come running and calming down Harper. We all made sure that Harper was okay to move and once she was ready, she got up from the ground, she sorted herself as we all left and headed straight to class.

Everyone including Harper was ready for class, when Ben walked in, he walked pasted Harper and sat directly behind her, he knew what he was doing but Harper was doing really well. Both me and Abby could see and tell that Chris was keeping his eye on Harper to make sure that she was okay but we all could tell she was very uncomfortable.

"Okay class, something a little different but we're still going to do activities while we learn"

The conversation between Harper and Ben wasn't really the quietest but not was it the loudest either.

"So whose the new professor"

"Uh, uh, that is Professor Evans"

You could tell that Harper was trying to stay strong but poor Harper was finding it so hard so get words out but she couldn't she form a sentence together, her best way was to try and ignore him and to look forward and breathe.
