Chapter 5: Sorry!

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK

The door went. Grian's eyes widened. He bolted from his bedroom to somewhere else. I open the door.

"Scar, what other liquid do you want us to use to get rid of the mycelium? The one you told us to use isn't working."Bdubs came with a little yellow notepad and a pen.

"Bdubs!" I yelled. "Why didn't you just call or text me?!"

"You weren't answering a-and I thought something was wrong, so I asked Tango if he s-saw you and he said you were here! What's so wrong with me coming, anyway?!"

"Look at what you've done to poor Grian!"

Bdubs looked over my shoulder. "I don't even see him!"

"That's my point! He went and hid because of the knocking!"

He looked puzzled.

"Go and figure out a different mycelium liquid to use!" I started to close the door, and Bdubs started to slowly retreat backwards before riding off on his horse.

"Grian?" I looked around his mansion. I opened a closet door and lo and behold, I found him. Grian was balled up, knees to his head, wings covering him, crying.

"Gri?" I put my hand on his shoulder. His ocean blue eyes, full of tears, met mine.

I notice he's shifting a lot.

{ Grian's POV }

The knock kept ringing in my head. Flashbacks came to my mind, not just from the incident. I felt a bit lightheaded. I started gasping up for air, but it was no use.

"Are you okay?!" Scar sounded frantic. He pulled out his phone and was about to make an emergency call but I pushed his phone away. I didn't need more people here, worrying about me.

I kept trying to get air in my lungs, flapping my huge wings in an attempt to help the air by me move more. I tried to stand up to get out of the small closet.

{ Scar POV }

His knees were shaky as he stood up just before he fell, but I caught him.

"Gri where are you trying to go?!" He tried to stand up again but failed to wriggle out of my grasp.

{ 3rd person POV }

Grian stopped trying to walk. It was becoming draining and even slightly painful. He instead sat on Scar's lap, absentmindedly.

"Are you okay?" He asked.

"...I dunno..." Grian weakly shrugged. His breathing slowed a bit but was still labored.

"I wanna help you."

"..."

"Should I... put you on your bed?"

{ Scar POV }

Grian nods, no longer breathing as loud as before. I pick him up gently, careful not to hurt his wings.

I leave him alone in his room. I figured he'd probably want some alone time right now. My mind shifted to about 10 minutes ago, when I yelled at Bdubs.

I feel bad for how I treated him. He couldn't have known any better and was just trying to help.
