Y/n's POV

Last night before we went our separate ways we planned to meet at the coffee shop, Ground Central Coffee Company so we call it Ground Triple C for short, around 8:30. So when morning came around, Y/f/n and I were scrambling around our apartment trying to get our stuff together so that we could go. 

It was 8:15 and I was waiting for Y/f/n to finish getting ready when it happened.

I collapsed in the entryway and started to shake, along with hyperventilating and sweating with chills. After about 5 minutes of feeling like I was alone and going to die, Y/f/n came and saw me, immediately coming to my side and comforting me, calling me things like "kiddo" and "darling" and "toots" among others.

After 11 more minutes, I finally calmed down and was able to get back up and finish putting on my shoes while Y/f/n stayed by my side, also putting on her shoes.

"Ready kiddo?" Y/f/n asked, opening the door for me.

"I think so, but if it happens there, we have to tell him," I sighed, shuddering slightly at the thought of Alex, or anyone else, finding out.

"Okay, but only if you want him to find out, I don't want him reacting like Ollie did," Y/f/n vividly shuddered, while I closed my eyes and sighed.

Ollie was my best friend and later I found out that he had a crush on me, that is until I told him about my panic disorder, eventually making him jump off of a bridge, killing himself while I was having a panic attack because he decided that he wasn't ready or able to help me.

Y/f/n dragged me out of my thoughts, grabbing my hand, smiling, and dragging me to the Ground Triple C, almost pulling my arm out of its socket.

"Y/f/n!" I laughed, hurrying to catch up with her, "Wait!"

"No! We can't be late!" Y/f/n yelled at me, catching the attention of the people around us.

"But we already are late!" I giggled, causing her to scold me while pulling me faster.

"And you telling me this won't get us there any faster!" 

"You passed it," I pointed out, causing her to turn around and make a bullet back to where we came from.

We almost passed it again until I pulled my hand out of her grasp, making her stop and come back.

"That hurt child!" I said, rubbing my arm as she opened the door for me, which I walked through and walked up to the counter, not seeing that Alex was already here and he was the only person in the store, other than the one person working.

"Well, it's your fault for being slow!" Y/f/n said, covering up my panic attack.

"Excuse me?!? I was not slow, you were!" I put the blame on her, turning my attention to the employee, winking at her, "Kate! It's so good to see you again!" 

"The usual, I take it?" the employee, Kate, laughed, starting to make our drinks.

"Yes, five extra pumps of raspberry to heal my arm that Y/f/n ripped out of my body," I sighed, shaking my head.

"Um, pretty sure you're the one that rips an arm off of someone," Y/f/n laughed, making me laugh as well.

"I s'pose I do, but it's that kid's clone, and he rips an arm off of it too," I said, pointing accusingly at Alex, who was sitting in the corner drinking his ice tea, unsweetened.

"Huh, what?" Alex said, looking over at us cluelessly.

"Hehehe," I giggled, making him look really confused.

"Whatever. Oh, also, you guys looked crazy out there, and are currently all over social media," Alex added, chuckling.

"Y/f/n! I told you to stop tearing my arm off!" I scolded.

"Haha, you snooze you lose, we'll be at our table waiting for our drinks, peasant!" Y/f/n said, walking over to Alex and sitting across from him.

"Y/n! Come on, get over here Toots!" Y/f/n said playfully, making me narrow my eyes at her, saying,

"You toots yourself kiddo," I muttered, turning back to Kate and whispering to her, "You ready?"

"Yeah, just finishing the drinks and then operation Awesome is on!" Kate whispered back excitedly.

"Okay, so how much is it?" I asked in my normal voice.

"$4.79 my friend, it's always the same," Kate poked fun at me, fake sighing.

"You're paying next time Y/f/n!" I yelled over my shoulder, handing $5 over, having her keep the change as always.

"You know it, babes!" Y/f/n said classically, making me laugh and shake my head.

"Hey! Stop stealing my authentic material, Ms. Sunshine!" Alex said offendedly.

"Try to stop me MR. BEETLEJUICE!" Y/f/n said in a mischievous voice.

"Okay children, quiet down," I said, sliding into the booth, sitting next to Alex.

Alex opened his mouth to question why I sat next to him and not Y/n while she looked out the window, but I put a finger up to my mouth to shut him up.

He looked at me curiously before he turned to look at Kate, who was coming towards us with Y/f/n and I's drinks. She looked at me with a questioning look and I nodded back, and she handed me my drink and set Y/f/n's on the table.

"Thanks Kate!" Y/f/n said, Kate then sliding into the open space next to her.

"Y/f/n?" Kate asked, looking slightly nervous.

"Yeah?" Y/f/n asked curiously.

"Here," Kate said, taking a box out of her pocket and handing it to Y/f/n, who opened it and saw a necklace with Kate's name on it.

"Will you be my girlfriend?" Kate asked smoothly, not showing any of the nervousness she had expressed before.

"I think this will answer your question," Y/f/n said, handing over a box, Kate opening it to see a necklace exactly like the one she gave to Y/f/n, except it had Y/f/n's name on it instead of Kate's.

They hugged, and I looked at Alex, patting his leg and saying,

"And that's why I sat next to you."

Making everyone laugh.
