Chapter 36 (Evelyn)

*2 weeks later

Well it's been a while since me and Zach broke up. He clearly moved on. Emma and him are a thing now. I don't know if their dating nor do I care. Yes, Emma is my bestfriend again. But, I could care less if she was dating Zach or not. Corbyn has started to get more comfortable near me. It kind of feels like we are dating but without all of the kissing and other stuff. I mean we hug and cuddle sometimes. Ever since Zach cheated on me again, I've had some pretty bad anxiety attacks. Thanks Zach. The thing is, the come out of NOWHERE. Like I will literally just be laying on my bed looking at the boring ceiling and I'll start having trouble breathing and I'll hyperventilate, I'll start to cry, then I will for Corbyn to come and help me. Which he always does. If he wasn't alive and with me, I would probably be dead. Okay.
There was a knock on my door. "Come in." I say. It's Zach. Great. Fantastic. My face turns from hopeful to diminished. "What." I sat with absolutely no emotion. "I need to ask you something." He says. "What." I say again. "Would you be okay if I asked Emma to be my girlfriend?" He asks. "I don't care." I say. "Oh. Um are you okay." He says. "Yes I'm perfect." I say very very sarcastically. "Okay well then imma go, thank you." He says as he walks out and closes the door. Once the door closes, I lay down on my bed. Oh no. I cant breathe. I start crying. "CORBYN." I yell. He comes running in. He closes the door and runs to me. He gets in the bed and holds me tight. "Everything is gonna be okay Evelyn, breathe inhale...exhale." Corbyn says. He tells me to do that a couple more times. I calm down after about 15 minutes. I breathe out, "Oh my god. What the heck is wrong with me." I say. "Eve, nothing is wrong with you. You are perfect. Zach did this to you. He will pay soon enough." He says. "You know what?" I say. "What?" Corbyn asks. "I think I'm gonna go see a doctor. I cant do this anymore." I say. "Okay I'll take you. Make an appointment." I nod. I call the doctor and set up an appointment. "Doctor tomorrow at 10:30 am." I say. "Okay!" He says. "Corbyn?" I say. "Yeah?" He says. "Would you please sleep next to me tonight? I feel like I might have another attack." I ask. "Of course. Anything for you." He says. "Thank you." I say. He nods. He gives me a kiss on my head. I blush. We look at each other. He leans in and I lean in. We kiss. For the first time in 4 months. It feels right. We pull away. We both smile. Someone knocks on the door. "Hey guys I would like you to meet my good friend, Reya." Daniel says as he moves aside. She waves. "Omg you are the waitress we saw!" I say. "Correct!" She says. "Well I'm Evelyn and this is Corbyn." I say. "Nice to meet you Reya." Corbyn says. "You too!" Reya says.
"Well we are gonna go downstairs so see y'all later!" Daniel says. I wink at him. "Okay have fun!" I say.
