YN P.O.V

"Die! Die! D-WHAT THE HECKLE!?" I leant back on the couch with my jaw on the floor. Some kid just sniped me on fortnite. I didn't really like this game at first, but the graphics looked nice and it was a game Ethan seemed to enjoy.

I quit to the menu screen and just stare at it for a few seconds, thinking of random tv shows I used to watch.

X-men... Chip n Dale...

My thoughts were ever so rudely interrupted by Ethan's door opening, then closing again. I looked over at it and smiled at Ethan, who was standing with his hand still on the door knob, staring at his phone. My smile fell once I saw his saddened face.

He pushed his phone into his pocket and rubbed his face. I felt the need to say something but kept silent, it's not like I have any idea what's just happened. Ethan sniffed, running his hands through his hair and looking at the ground, seemingly trying to steady his breathing.

"Ethan?" I say, putting my controller down and walking over to him carefully, "Ethan?"

I stood in front of him when he finally noticed me standing there. His eyes widened and he took a step back out of instinct.

"Is... Is everything ok? You looked a little.." I paused when I noticed him coughing a little bit. He looked like he was having trouble to breathe or something.

He pushed a hand onto his throat and the other on the wall next to him, like he lost his balance. I knew something was wrong.

"Ethan? Ethan say something, listen to me," he looked desperately into my eyes as he gasped for air, "Ethan I want you to put your hands on your head for me. Can you do that for me?"

His hands were shaking, but he put them on his head, eyes squeezing closed as he tried to suck in a breath. This wasn't working, I had to get him to focus on something else..

I remembered something I read online, and I secretly thanked the internet.

"Ok Ethan, I need you to focus on me. Focus on my voice Ethan, look at my eyes and describe them aloud to me. I know you have trouble focussing sometimes but you need to really try this time, ok?" I put my hands on his shoulders and felt him sway slightly as he opened his eyes.

Ethan's eyes were glassy but he tried to focus on my eyes.

He took a shaky breath before opening his mouth, "U-uhm.. Your, your eyes are uhm, they, they twinkle w-when you laugh. Uh, they're a really nice sh-shade. I-I," he sniffed and began taking deep breaths again. Ethan shut his eyes and faced his shoes, letting his hands fall from his head.

I smiled. It worked.

I put my hands in my pockets and stood there kind of awkwardly when suddenly Ethan looked up at me with tears in his eyes and pulled me into a big hug. My eyes widened and I stood there shocked.

There we were. My best friend and I hugging for the first time. Sounds stupid, but we didn't hug because I had a jealous boyfriend that would've killed us both if he even saw us sitting next to each other. But, now that I've dumped that stupid son of a bitch, I guess there was no barrier to stop us from hugging.
