TW: mentions of anxiety, I personally suffer from Trichotillomania (when you pull your hair when you get anxious, from your head, eyelashes, or eyebrows) and also GAD (generalized anxiety disorder) I have been professionaly diagnosed for 4 years, if this doesn't correlate with how you feel that's perfectly normal we all experience things differently!

It was 1 week from finals, almost summer. Y/n was smart, mostly A's with a few B's, but anyone who cares about their grade knows how stressful finals week is. Safe to say y/n is one of those people. She hadn't seen the sun for two weeks. Which can't be good for anyone. Usually when things get stressful she goes for a run or a workout, but when you have to cram, nothing else is much of an option. Making it easy to get overwhelmed. Overwhelmed she was.

She hadn't seen Matt, or any of her friends out of school that week, it was Friday. They didn't care for school as she did. Going to school made her boyfriend anxious, missing it made her anxious. This temporary distance brought up a few arguments. Nothing too extreme, enough to freak the 2 out however.

One morning in the halls there was another worrying incident. Y/n walking to her 3rd hour listening to Tyler The Creator "Y/N" Matt shouted trying to get her attention, not noticing she had both AirPods in, hidden in her hair, he ran up and grabbed her shoulder. "Oh hey." She said with a small smile. "Are you avoiding me?" The boy asked, seemingly out of insecurity. "No, I've just been busy Matt, I care about school." She said getting defensive. "Wow y/n that was a low blow." He said walking off. In 3rd hour she started to cry, she got a pass and left. She continued to bawl as she drove herself home.

Another hour later at lunch. "Nick, have you seen y/n?" Matt asked his brother. "No, why?" Nick questioned. "Well we had a small fight, and her friends haven't seen her since 3rd hour. I didn't know if you two ditched or something." Matt rambled. "No lover boy we didn't, why don't you text her." Nick said disinterested. Chris, and Nate came over, Nick left to go sit with some others. "Hey is y/n sick she wasn't in last hour?" Nate asked Matt. "She was here this morning and shes not answering my texts." he said dryly.

Meanwhile. Y/n was in her room hyperventilating, with her phone continuously pinging, probably from her friends. She didn't think Matt would care where she was, she was very wrong.

She sat in her room for the rest of the day, studying and over utilizing door dash. She spilt ranch on her hoodie, only causing her to break down for the millionth time that day after realizing it wasn't hers but it was Matt's. She wanted to apologize for ignoring him, and everyone else for that matter. He wanted to apologize for his behavior as well.

She decided to change and go for a run, the amount of wings she ate was definitely unhealthy. Whenever she was anxious she'd go for a run. (I do this) she did this to not have a breakdown and rip out her eyebrows for the 3rd time this week. While she was on her run Matt came over. Y/n's older brother answered the door telling him he could wait upstairs until she gets back. So Matt did just that. He sat on her bed, taking in the mess of a room that usually would have been sparkling clean, he started to clean it, to prevent more stress.

A good 45 minutes later y/n came through the bedroom door. She had seen his car outside, not bothering to reorganize herself they'd been together 3 years, he'd seen her looking disheveled before. The moment she stepped inside she started crying and apologizing, she wasn't the only one either.

"I'm sorry for ignoring you, and saying that you don't care about school, I know things are different for you." She said standing above him wiping the tears that had started to fall. "I'm sorry for getting mad that you chose to study instead of watch me and my brothers play Fortnite, and not acknowledging that I wasn't being any help." He said sitting on the edge of her bed. "I'd hug you but I'm sweaty." She laughed wiping the remaining tears. "I'm gonna shower and then do you wanna watch a movie, also thank you for cleaning up." She added "of course." He said smiling at her
