No longer Invisible

Chapter 26

Warning an anxiety attack will happen later in the chapter, not sure if someone might need this or not.

Naomi P.O.V

I breathe slowly in and out, I repeat this about five more times. I look in the mirror and I give myself a pep talk.

"You got this Naomi. You are strong and will have a fun time with your friends. You will enjoy the game."

"You know you don't have to go if you don't want to." I look over in the mirror slightly to see Christopher.

" I know but I want to see Toby play and who knows this could be different from the other times."

This time around I have people who care about me and I'm not being forced to go so maybe I'll be having so much fun that I want mind. Maybe.

"Well if you need a minute or just want to leave let one of us know, alright." He walks up behind me, and I nod.

"Thanks Chris it means a lot." He walks away but stops and looks back. "You look really pretty by the way." I smile and I look at what I'm wearing.

I was wearing blue bell-bottom jeans with lace-up sides with a black crop top. I had my Dr. Martens and a trench coat it wasn't buttoned up but I did tie it.

My hair was in its natural state so it was an Afro. It kinda covered my eyes so I put on Carter's bandana.

I did look kinda pretty. I breathe in and out one more time and make my way downstairs. "Okay I'm ready let's go." I say to the three on the couch waiting for me to hurry up. "You look so cute." Stacy says and I smile. "Thanks Stacy."

Stacy had her hair in faux locs and was wearing a black tube top with a denim mini-skirt and tights. The tights had a few holes in them.

It looked like she made them herself. Stacy also had what looked like two belts one around the skirt and the other around her waist.

She had a trench coat too but it was wide open and her shoes were thigh-high boots with fur on the top.

"I'll drive with Naomi." Carter says standing up and leaving not looking or waiting for any of us. I just shrug and walk behind him.

We get in the car and drive away. It was quiet and I was kinda scared to talk.

Carter looked a little annoyed. I take the little courage I have and decide to ask. "Carter is there something wrong?" I ask him looking down at my lap. I hear him sigh. "Yea but I don't want to bother you with it."

"Carter you can tell me anything, if you need to vent I'm here for you." I say looking up at him. I want Carter to trust me as much as I trust him.

I want that for all of us. "It's my mom she's being difficult so tomorrow I gotta see her which can be a lot." I wanna ask more but I feel like I pushed him to tell me so I don't ask any more questions.

"Well after you see her if things go wrong I'm always free to talk." I smile at him and he gives me a little one. "Thanks for listening Naomi." I just nod. After that, we sit in nice silence before we reach the school.

"Wow so many cars." We came early but most of the spots were filled. "We haven't lost once so far this season so more people must want to watch this year."
