It's Nothing

Ch. 9

~Grace's P.O.V.~

My manager agreed I could move in with her because of my dad. I've been spending the past five nights at either Maia's or Garrett's. Sometimes I'll go hang out with Rydel Lynch, but not very often. I'm just waiting for Ross to pull up to Kayla's house with Garrett and Maia. Here they are. I grab my bag and run out. I jump in the back with Garrett. 

"Hey Grace!" they all say. 

"Hey guys." I say. I'm trying not to breathe heavily but I can't help it. I only ran 500 feet and I'm exhausted and can't breathe. We pull into the parking lot of Starbucks. We're just going to walk from here. 

"What do you want?" Garrett asked me. 

"I'm good." I tell him. 

"Alright. I'll get you a cookie crumble frappe." he says. I laugh because there's never stopping him if he wants to get someone something. We all get our drinks then walk to a private beach owned by the Lynchs. 

"Race ya!" Ross yelled running into the water pulling Maia behind him. I put my stuff down and was about to sit down when Garrett comes up from behind me and grabs my waist. 

"Come on!" he says. I quickly take off my over dress and race him into the water. 

"Cold!" I yell as I resurface after diving in. I don't know why I didn't want to go swimming today. 

"Grace! Join us on the logs!" Maia yells. I nod and swim out to join her on some logs. The Lynchs chained logs out in the ocean so they could play on them. I slowly slide onto a log right as a wave come up. I laugh and play around with Maia on the logs. Soon the boys are swimming out to us. We stay out here for about an hour until we decide to leave. I reach my bag right as I start to lose my breathe. I reach for my inhaler. So does Maia. I can't find it. I look everywhere. It's getting harder to breathe. I can see the same happening with Maia. 

~Garrett's P.O.V.~

I watch Maia and Grace go grab there stuff. Me and Ross are on the other side of the beach. I know both girls have asthma so I'm keeping a close eye on both. I see them both start coughing and realize they still haven't gotten their inhalers. 

"Ross, come on. We need to go get the girls." I yell. He nods. I watch him slowly walk towards me. Then his face pales and he runs past me. I turn around right as Grace falls down. I see Maia already down and I sprint towards the girls. 

"I found Maia's inhaler." Ross says pulling it out of her bag. I search for Grace's. I know she carries it everywhere. Where is it? Soon I hear Maia coughing as she sits up. 

"What happened?" she asks. 

"Can't find it. Maia, I need to use your inhaler on Grace." I tell her. She nods. I take it and soon Grace sits up coughing as well. 

"What happened?" she asks. Just like sisters. 

"You girls passed out after you couldn't find your inhalers." Ross answered. We head to the car and drive back home.
