Riley's P.O.V

The day was getting weirder and weirder. I walked to my next class and my classmates were tossing me stares and the teacher was looking at me constantly. I felt like I was in a different universe. I hated this attention. I felt like a fraud. Who knew helping my sibling would call for so much admiration from my peers? I didnt, it made me feel physically sick. I couldn't help but dread going to Alexa's class, my nerves weren't co operating with me today, the jitters and light trembles. Focus on something outside of your body Riley. I remembered a nurse telling me that was one of the ways she coped with her panic attacks and it was a life saving tool.

My daydream ended as I realised that I've forgotten to take my tablets. I rummaged through my bag and they weren't there. My mind started racing, my heart threatening to break my ribs and the light headeness which caused a full on panic attack. This can't be happening. I cant breathe. The café. I dropped my bag.

I asked to leave the room. The teacher must have been in a great mood because she didnt hesitate to give me a hall pass. My hands were shaking, and I felt faint as I took the piece of paper from her. I need to take my tablets. I can't cope, I can't think.

Alexa. Maybe she picked them up. Please. I walked down the hallway and knocked on her door. Deep breaths, I reminded myself. Hoping I wouldn't pass out before she opened the door. The door creaked open and the raven haired beauty was greeting me with a smile. I couldn't muster up the energy to greet her back.

Her face changed thick with concern. She lowered her voice. "Riley, are you okay?"

I gave her a shaky smile. "Mhm, this-m- I dropped my bag. Did my- "

She cut me off. "Yes, you dropped your tablets, one second."

I breathed a sigh of relief. She hurried to get them. She touched my hand as she gave them to me. She led me out of the classroom as she scanned the corridor for stray students.

"Thank-you" I smiled as I rushed over to the fountain.

Alexa followed by every step. She put my hand into her's looking around again for stray students or teachers. "Riley, you'll be okay." My body seemed calmed down slightly by her touch. I took a deep breath. I turned around, so Alexa couldn't see me taking them. I put a tablet into my mouth and I took a sip of water and I did the same again. I closed my eyes and I sat down on the hallway floor. I put my hands on my head feeling the embarrassment. "I'm sorry." I mumbled. The heaviness of my body started to kick in as my muscles relaxed.

Alexa smiled as her soft hand squeezed mine. "Hey, we all have issues. Some bigger than others. Some physically, some mental and some emotionally."

I looked at her, she had something in her eyes I couldnt place. Her eyes were beautiful, I took a deep breath in and the dizziness reappeared. The thoughts were flying back two times as fast. I groaned in defeat. "Not again." I closed my eyes and I tried breathing.

Alexa stood up. "Come with me." She took my hand and I lifted myself up hoping I wasn't going to pass out. She escorted me down the hallway into the stock room where books, toilet rolls, a mop and bucket were present. She locked the room from the inside and her attention was focused on me.

She cupped my face. "Riley, look at me."

I looked at her. We were close. So close. I could smell her breath; Coffee, But I honestly didnt mind. Which surprised me because usually coffee breath is replusing but I still had the urge to kiss her, I wanted to taste her, she must have felt the tension too as she bit her lip. I closed my eyes and I dropped my head. "I can't do this. I need to go."

Alexa looked at me. "Riley, focus. You're okay. Tell me what's wrong?"

I let out a long breath. "I can't."

She frowned slightly. "Riley, forget for a second that I'm your teacher. Think of me as your friend. What are you thinking about now?" How could I tell her everything that goes on in my mind when I can't comprehend it neither? I breathed in and I faked it.

I plastered a smile onto my worried stricken face. I stared at her lips fighting the urge to pull our faces together. "I think I'm okay now, Thank you Alexa."

She gave a disappointed smile. Almost as if she knew not to pry. "Are you sure?" I nodded my head. Not being sure at all, she had this power over me that made me want to open up but I needed to trust her before doing so first.

"Thank you, Yes I'm sure."

We walked out of the stockroom, I could feel her hazel eyes burning through my skull, I thanked Alexa and I walked back into class. It was like I wasn't even missing.

Heather smiled brightly."Rile, you okay?"

I smiled forcefully. "Yes, you?"

She laughed. "Yes. Now that your back." She smirked. I didn't understand this girl. She didn't strike me as lesbian. I tried to forget about her forwardness. I want to go home and forget about today, I havent had a day like this in a year.
