"Say something, Chris. Say something!"

Chris was having an off day. His heart hurt, and it felt like he wasn't real. He'd been feeling this way for a while, but he didn't know how to tell Matt or Nick.

Matt, on the other hand, was feeling great. He'd just filmed a video for his personal channel, and he was just in bed, editing, and eating Skinny Pop.

Tonight, Nick was out with Madi, and the two were having a grand old time. So that leaves us with zoned-out Chris and chilled Matt.

Chris was in his room playing video games, when suddenly he got an intense feeling. He couldn't figure out what he was feeling, and his heart rate picked up. He turned off his PC and looked around his room. It felt like he was looking at his surroundings through a glass window, or as if he was stuck in a glass box. He began unconsciously counting his knuckles, his fingertips tapping each one. He rubbed his eyes with shaky hands as his vision blurred more and more with each blink. It felt as if he wasn't real. As if Chris and his mind were on pause. Chris's stomach dropped in fear, and his breathing began to match the pace of his heart.

Chris tried to yell for his brother, but no sound would come out. He tried to grab his phone and call him, but he couldn't move. This made Chris panic further. Tears welled up in his eyes as his body shook with fear. His chest heaved as he tried to inhale. With each brisk exhale and heavy inhale, Chris became more and more lightheaded.

He needed Matt, but was frozen in his own body.

Matt had just finished editing his video, so he decided to go bother Chris, not knowing what was going on in Chris's room. He pushed open the door. "Yo, Chr-" Matt noticed Chris's panicked expression, unshed tears in his eyes. "Chris? What's- what's going on?" he slowly stepped toward Chris, trying not to startle him. "Chris, bub? Talk to me," Matt kneeled down beside him, rubbing his arm up and down, but Chris was completely out of it.
He didn't even know Matt was there. Matt squeezed Chris's shoulders, and ran his hand through his hair, anything to get him to come back to him. "Chris, come on! Say something, Chris. Say something!" Matt shouted.

Chris finally snapped back into reality, and the unshed tears in his eyes let themselves loose. They streamed down his face as Chris gasped. He reached for Matt, his trembling body clinging to his brother. Matt frantically tried to soothe him, caressing him, rubbing Chris's back, wiping the steady tears from his cheeks. "Shh, Chris, you are okay. I'm here," Matt repeated.
Chris cried into Matt's chest, breathing laboriously. "I couldn't move, Matty," he murmured incoherently against his older brother.
"What? What did you say?" Matt asked, holding Chris a little further to hear him better.
"I don't know what happened, Matty. I felt stuck. I can't- nothing is real."
"No, Chris. You're here. You're real. I'm real." Matt soothed. "Look, look. Feel my hand, okay? Feel." Matt took Chris's hand in his own and squeezed it tightly. "Feel that?"
"Mhm, yeah," Chris hiccuped. "I can feel that."
"Good, Chris. Now, let's take calm breaths, okay? Slow- slow down." Matt and Chris breathed deeply together, until Chris was fully calmed down.

Matt and Chris snuggled up in Matt's bed, watching the Lorax. "I love you, Matty boy," Chris said, cozying up next to his brother. "I will 'lways love, you," he slurred, his tired eyes fighting to stay open.
"I love you, too, Chrissy," Matt said, kissing the top of his head.
Chris closed his eyes and slept peacefully for the rest of the night.
Now come on, did you really think I'd make a sad ending? Of course he'd be okay. It was Chris, after all.
