Eugene's POV
Something's off...
It feels like something critical is missing...
Wait...
"Um- Where's Gray?" (Eugene)
"Uh... good question..." (Gerard)
Here we are having a party for Gray and Gray isn't even here.
"Hold on, I'm going to go look for him." (Eugene)
I know I saw him earlier so he can't be far. Actually, what am I doing? I could just text him!
["Gray, where are you?"]
["Outside, by the tree."]
["What are you doing outside?]
["Getting a breath of fresh air."]
Fresh air? I mean, I guess that makes sense. He was stuck in a hospital for so long, it must have gotten stuffy in there after all that time. I should still go check on him.
Oh, I can see him from the window. His hair is doing that weird thing again... That thing where his hair just literally sparkles in the wind. Can this window open to the outside?
Ah... it can.
"Gray!"
"Oh..."
He looks troubled. Should I let him have his space?
Ah... I'm too worried, I need to ask him if he's okay.
Will I even fit through this window? It's so high up. I don't have any upper body strength. I can't get a proper footing on this slick wall-
"What are you doing?" (Teddy)
"Um... I uh... I'm trying to get through the window... to reach Gray." (Eugene)
"Dude, just get a chair. It'll be way easier to reach the window from there." (Teddy)
"Ah... right."
Yeah, he's right. I'm so stupid sometimes, just overcomplicating things. Ha...
So much easier...
"Um... Gray?"
"Hmm?"
"Are you... okay?"
"I am fine."
"Are you sure?"
"Confident."
"Well... okay, I believe you. Come on. This isn't a party without you."
"I'm not crawling on the ground."
"Uh... ah... right."
Yeah, right. He's a very clean person. Of course, he wouldn't want to crawl in through the window.
"Then I'll go with you."

Gray POV
Right, I can't show that I'm worried. It will cause the others to worry as well. Plus I don't really have an answer for if they were to ask what has me worried. Simply saying, "It's just a feeling." Or anything else along those lines would leave plenty of room for over speculation and panic. At the same time it also leaves plenty of room for dismissal as nothing more than a bad feeling. I don't expect justifying my paranoia with saying that my hunches are very rarely wrong would work either. On that note, I can't help but wonder just what my hunch is about. It feels like the issue is going to be building slowly and that it's not something that will just simply disappear.
I am going to have to push these thoughts aside for now. They conflict with the current event and I don't plan on infringing upon my friends effort to make me feel welcome. I must show my appreciation for now, as there is no need to spread unnecessary panic.
Just focus on something that deserves your time. The upcoming Olypiad and my friends... Yes, I can study while spending time with them at their party. Doing this will filter all my energy that is wasted on worrying into studying, a far more efficient use of energy. It will keep me looking normal and keep my friends from worrying about me like Eugene.
There is no need to cause panic for unknown reasons. I will address the issue when I know what my hunch is on about.

Shorter chapter than I'm used to. I was going to continue on from here, but then I realised that the part I was working on was more fitting as the beginning of the next chapter.
