The dictionary defines anxiety as a feeling of worry, nervousness, or unease, typically about an imminent event or something with an uncertain outcome.

I like to think of it as myself in that moment. My heart quickened, and I could feel my breathing becoming more shallow. Yet I still felt amazing. Walking back to my dorm with James brought back something I had been missing. Almost as if my senses had sharpened in those few short minutes. I could feel the warm breeze against my skin, I could see the world more brightly, and I could hear the screams of Samuel Seabury as he tripped over a twig in the distance. Life felt right.

The more we talked, the easier it became, until we were joking and laughing with each other.

"Wait.." James rubbed the tears out of his eyes as he chuckled, "You're telling me you genuinely believe cereal is soup?" I nodded and fake pouted.

"If there is a liquid with stuff in it, then it's soup!" I stated a-matter-of-factly.

James scratches his hair and thought for a moment. "Doesn't that make ice water soup then..?" We bursted out laughing as I playfully punched him in the arm.

Finally we got to the dorm and I took the key out of my pocket. Unlocking the door, I heard James let out a gasp behind me.

"Why is it so messy!?" He whined as he walked around the room. He wasn't wrong either. The kitchen cabinets were opened, and dishes were pouring out of the sink. Goldfish littered the floor, and a pair of boxers were covering the television. My bed wasn't made, and a half gallon of ice cream was melted and empty on top of my dresser.

"Oh.." I had forgotten how much a of slob I had been since James had left. James grabbed my shoulders and looked at me intensely.

"Thomas.." I gulped, as I started to feel very aware of something down below. "Y-yes..?"

He moved closer, until we were inches apart and I could feel his breath on my neck. "We need to clean this place up." I pushed him off of me, bright red. "Oh yes! What a great idea!" We began to clean around the dorm. James washed the dishes, I dried. He vacuumed, I dusted. It went like that for hours. We were finishing up our bedroom, when I turned around to hear James sniffling from behind me. I ran up to him, to see tears in his eyes.

He covered his face and looked down. "James! What's wrong..?" I looked down at him with concern.

"It's s-stupid, but I think Aaron is c-cheating on me." My heart broke as I looked into his eyes. "With who?" I asked quietly.

"I'm pretty sure it's Charles..." That came as a shock to me. I had always thought if anyone, Aaron had had a crush on Alex. However suddenly things seemed to make sense. While we were walking, James has mentioned how many times Aaron would come home either very late, or very early on most days. He also explained that he had seen Alex during a lot of time Aaron said he was studying with him. Even I had noticed Aaron and Lee hanging out more and more, though I hadn't really cared.

I hugged James as tight as I could, "God James I'm so sorry this is happening. And I'm so sorry I did the same thing." He looked up at me, his eyes glistening with tears.

"Well maybe I should've we were on a break.." I nodded and opened my mouth to say something when I was abruptly cut off.

I felt James's lips on mine. He kissed me. And I kissed him right back.
