Chapter 12- Can't Breathe
Frank's POV-
I awkwardly sit opposite Jace, still with my face buried in my arms.
No way in fuck am I letting him see my face, with fucked up eyeliner and red puffy eyes.
''Melody...? I'd like you to come with me...'' I hear someone.
I slowly look up, seeing the lady from earlier, then realising where I am...
Its the well being unit, where fucked up kids go to vent, or chill out.
I get up, and follow her to her office.
She shuts the door, and gestures for me to sit.
''So, would you like to talk about what's on your mind?'' She asks me.
I feel her gaze on me, and it feels so heavy making me feel awkward.
''Uhm... uhh.... No...?'' I say.
She nods understandingly, ''Okay, well just no that I'm always here if you do want to talk, ok? Do you think you can go back to class now?''
I shake my head.
''No? Well, I'd like you to try.''
I feel panic arising in my throat.
I can't go back
My next class has Evelyn in it.
I can't deal with her
Not after what she said to Mandy about me
But, being the piece of shit I am, I let the counselor person lead me out of the unit, as we pass Jace, she tells him he should get back to class too.
I wonder why he was in here....
As soon as she lets me out, I'm confronted by heaps of teenagers gathering their books and going to their next class.
Fuck that, I'm going to have a panic attack!
There's so many people
I can't!
I feel my breathing get quicker and quicker, and my heart beating faster and faster.
I go on a freak out mode.
I can't breathe!
Just as I feel like I'm going to pass out, I see someone in front of me
''Its okay, breathe, breathe with me ok? Copy my breathing...''
I try to focus on him, and copy his breathing.
I cough a few times, ''I-I can-n't''
''Yes. Yes you can, you can do it, copy my breathing'' He breathes out slowly.
I finally calm down, and realize the guy thats been helping me is in fact Jace.
I hardcore blush from embarrassment.
''I-I'm so sorry you had to witness that...'' I mutter, looking down.
''N-no, It's okay.... I-I sometimes get anxiety attacks too,... they-re the worst, a-aren't they...''
Seems like Jace may have a social awkwardness problem too, due to his slight stutter like me.
I lightly smile at him, and he smiles back.
''We should head to class, I'll walk you, by the way, I didn't catch your name...?''
''It's Frank'' I smile.
''Frank'' He repeats.
