September 6 | Friday
"Deanna and I broke up." Leva sighs, almost in tears.
"Den lilla punk assen! Jag ska slå hennes röv!" I shout and Everleigh chuckles.
"I swear, every time you speak Swedish, I am closer to buying a translation thing."
"She called Deanna a punk and she's gonna beat her."
"How did you manage to translate that?"
"My father is Swedish."
"Ahh."
I hop off my bed but Sammi pulls me back into her lap before kissing me.
"Wait are you guys a thing?"
I sit there silently and Sammi grabs my hand. I can feel myself start to hyperventilate as they both stay silent and I pinch Sammi's hand.
One thing they, Leva and Everleigh, don't know about me is the panic attacks. They're sudden, with no trigger. I can pass out from one normally but Sammi is always well aware.
I started getting dizzy and Sammi instantly shifts me around so I'm laying down instead of sitting up on the edge of my bed. I close my eyes.
{Sammi's Pov}
I sigh, holding Carmody's hand as she laid there with her eyes shut and Leva and Everleigh are clearly worried about their roommate.
I don't blame them. It's serious.
"She okay? Did I say something?"
"No. They can't be triggered. There's an imbalance that's uneven and only meds fix it but clearly she never took them today."
"Ohhh. Are you guys a thing?"
"I'll be honest. We are but I know she's scared. I'm not sure why exactly."
"You guys are so adorable!" Everleigh smiles.
"How long does it last?"
"Depends. I think this is a shorter one but..."
"Ahhhh."
We sit there quietly for about 10-15 minutes until Carmody rolls over and hugs me. I smile at the girls as she buries her head into my shoulder and Everleigh and Leva smile.
This is gonna be a long day...

l snatch the letter from Kaylee and she grumbles.
Dear Sammi Parchel,
It has come to our attention that a fight between you and football player Parker Hentsworth. In your contract and Hentsworth's, it states that you can't get into fights and will need to be removed from your team.
As we've been informed, you started the fight and fought the most. If this is wrong, please come speak with me or your head coach. Please bring evidence to support your reason.
Sincerely,
Head Director of Athletics
Christopher Williams
"What the?" I whisper and Kaylee looks over my shoulder as coach approaches us.
"Parchel? Can we talk quick?" She asks and I sigh, walking with her. "What the hell happened for you to get into a fight?"
