Bit of high school minishaw! Enjoy!
~~~~~~~
Harry and his friends were sat out in the school playing field at lunch time, enjoying the nice summer weather.
"What goodies do we all have today then guys?" Ethan asked.
" I've got chicken drumsticks, crisps and a cheese sarnie! " He continued looking very happy and proud.
"Healthy!" Harry laughed.
" come on then Mr...what you got? " he replied, trying to peek into Harry's little blue lunch box.
"I have....a nice chicken salad, an apple, some organic guacamole and some orange juice."
" Yuck! Sounds disgusting! " Ethan fake gagged.
Harry looked down at his lunch and frowned, turning his back to Ethan.
"Oh...come on Harry! I was just joking, I'm sure it tastes....lovely!" He laughed.
Harry just got up with his lunch and walked away, sitting under a tree by himself.
"Well done Ethan! You know he's sensitive!" Simon growled. He got up and sat next to Harry.
"Take no notice of him, Boggo! You know he can't control that gob of his!" Simon put his arm around Harry.
"You can go back to them if you want!" Harry whispered.
"No! I'm staying with my best friend!" He replied, smiling brightly. Harry smiled back. "thanks Si!"
They sat and ate their lunch, chatted, and laughing occasionally when a funny joke or story was shared. Simon was glad that Harry had cheered up.
"Ouch! What the fuck was that!" Harry suddenly yelped gently rubbing the back of his neck.
Simon looked at Harry's pale neck.
"Move your hand away bog!" Harry moved it.
" Oh...you've been bitten or stung by something! "
"Shit Si!" Harry shouted. Simon knew that Harry had an allergy to wasp and bee stings, so he was now worried that Harry had been stung by one of them.
"We need to get you inside!" Simon panicked as he helped Harry pack his stuff up and the walked quickly to the medical room.
Harry was also panicking by the time they reached the door, he was struggling to breathe and his face and neck was swollen.
They went in and saw the nurse, who happened to be Simon's Mum.
"Mum! Help! Harry's been stung, he can't breathe!" He was frantic.
She went straight to the medicine cabinet and got Harry's medication out.
"Simon, phone for an ambulance quickly!" She instructed as she counted Harry's meds.
His pulse was rapid. He was extremely pale. He thought he was going to die. There were salty tears rolling down his cheeks making Simon want to cry as well. They laid him down with his legs elevated.
Less than 10 minutes later, an ambulance arrived at the school and the paramedics were treating Harry. The sting was removed, he was given more meds and an oxygen mask was placed over his mouth and nose to help him breathe.
His pulse rate was returning to normal.
"We need to take him to the hospital as it was a very severe attack." One of the paramedics said.
" I'll let his Mum know, she's on her way" simons mum said.
"Can i go with him Mum?" Simon asked hopefully, a few tears falling from his eyes.
"No love, i'm sorry, he needs an adult, I'll get a teacher to go, I'll see who is available." She hugged him before leaving the room.
Harry moaned on the bed, trying to get up.
" Hey Harry! you trying to sit up? " Simon asked as he lifted Harry up.
Harry yanked the mask off his face and threw up over himself.
"Shit!" Simon yelled, trying to move out of the way, as Harry threw up again.
"Don't worry, lad, it's quite normal. His body has gone through a big shock" the paramedic said as he put a bowl under Harry's chin just as he threw up for a third time. Harry groaned again.
Shortly after, Simon's mum returned with a teacher, Mrs Prentch.
"Oh Harry dear!" She said when she saw him sitting there covered in his own vomit.
" we need to get going now" the paramedic said, and they got Harry into a wheelchair. He still looked pale and sweaty and he was still struggling slightly.
"I'll come over when you get home, yeah? You take care Harry!" Simon said as Harry was wheeled out the room.

"Hey Si! Is it true about Harry going to hospital? I heard about it and I saw an ambulance. Is he alright?" JJ asked as he met Simon and the other boys in their friend group at last break.
"Yes....he got stung by a bee or a wasp and as you know he's allergic. I hope he's ok. They wouldn't let me go to hospital with him and he was in a pretty bad state." simon replied, sadly.
"Thats shit man!" Josh said, wrapping an arm round Simons shoulder. "Just as well you were with him when it happened!" Tobi said.
Their other friends all knew about Harry's allergy. They know to act fast if he got stung, as he could die.
"I know. I think I'm still in shock and not knowing how he is, it's driving me crazy!"
Simon's phone rang, he looked at it, it said 'Harry's Mum' on the screen.
He answered it quickly.
"Mrs Lewis! How is he? Is he ok?" Simon asked, desperate to know.
" Hi Simon....he's doing fine!"
Simon let out the breath he'd been holding.
"We're coming home in a hour or so. They just want to keep an eye on him. He was asking if you could come over later?"
" Oh thank god! I've been really worried. Yes...of course I'll come over. Tell him to text me when i can come please? " Simon replied.

"Sure, love! I'll tell him. He's having a nap right now. I'll see you later. Bye love!"
" Bye Mrs Lewis! "
Simon hung up his phone and gave a sigh of relief.
"He's ok then?" Ethan asked.
" Yeah. He'll be home soon" Louis smiled. Then the bell rang ."Better get to the next lesson. See you soon guys!" said Vik.
they all then said their goodbyes and went to their lesson.

It was 6pm when Simon got the text he'd been waiting for...
Boggy💗: hi Si! can u come over now pls? X
Si: yes of course.... be there in 2 mins! x 😁
Simon grabbed his coat and ran out the door as quick as possible. He got to Harry's house and knocked.
The door opened and Harry was standing there with a dark blue blanket wrapped around him. Simon practically threw himself at his best friend and hugged him tightly.
"Hey...hey...alright Si!" Harry laughed. "Calm down love!" Simon finally let go and smiled.
"Sorry...I'm just so happy you're ok!"
They went and sat on the sofa. Harry's Mum came in and greeted Simon, thanking him for helping Harry. She made them some tea then left them alone, to have her bath.
They sat, laughed, cried, talked, ate and cuddled.
The night ended up with them having their first kiss.
"I don't know what I'd do without you Harry...I'm gonna protect you forever!" Simon whispered .
"I love you Si....I'm going nowhere. Thank you for saving me" he replied, leaning in for another kiss.
