AVA'S POV

I sat there on my bed, staring at my phone. Payton and I haven't talked since yesterday when I met him and I started to feel like he's been ignoring me. I'm sure he's not but he usually always texts me a good morning or some cute little message. I guess he could just be busy because he is here for playlist but ya never know. I decided to finally text him after a while.

Yep he's definitely ignoring me. A part of my heart broke as I sat there waiting for him to reply.

5 minutes went by.

10 minutes went by.

12 minutes went by and still no reply.

He read my message but completely ignored me. I set my phone down on my nightstand and huddled into a ball, holding my knees to my chest. My arms wrapped around my knees, holding them close to me. I wanted to cry but there was no way I was gonna cry over a boy. I shook my head vigurously.

Don't cry. You can't.

He's just another boy.

Don't cry.

I continued to tell myself to not cry, that he was just some boy. But he wasn't just some boy! He was MY best friend. He was always there for me and he always made me smile. I thought about yesterday. How that was the best day of my life. When I ran up to him and wrapped my legs around his body, him holding me close. I shook my head as I felt a few tears fall into my shaking hands.

No no no no no

Don't cry

But it wasn't working. The tears came faster. They seem to create a river along my cheeks as they fell onto my body and sheets of my bed. My head shook as I breathed heavily.

Don't panic. Everything's ok.

My breathing increased as I told myself everything was ok. But it wasn't. My best friend in the whole world was ignoring me. I gasped for air as I realized what was happening. I shook my head trying to stop my breathing. But by now it wouldn't stop. My tears fell faster, my body shook, my breathing increased.

A panic attack.

And there was no one here to hold me. There was no one to calm me down. There was no one to help me.
Payton was ignoring me.
Jackson was with Payton.
My mom was at work.
my brother just left for the army.
My dad, has been gone for a while. He had a long business trip he had to go on, all the way in California.
Thinking about all this only made my breathing increase. My body shook vigorously.

Stop! Please stop!

I cried. I tried to scream for help. I tried to move but I was frozen. The world was spinning around me and I didn't know what to do. I finally gained controlled and layed down, crying into my pillow and holding my knees to my chest.
This went on for about an hour before It finally stopped and I passed out on my bed.

Word count: 551

Anyway hope you enjoyed! And I promise everything will get better!
