The storm lasted 3 days..

However the power couldn't be fixed for 2 days after the storm,

They were all able to charge their phones using Clays car

But other than that, They all stayed in the living room, playing card games or board games

Well everyone except George

Truth is, After the power went out And george went to his room he didn't speak to anyone, he locked himself away

He only ate if food was brought to him, he only left his room to use the bathroom,

i should he more specific so let me go back a few days

-

Both boys heard a bang and a scream

Clay rushed to georges room bursting in,

Clay saw George, he was sat on the floor against his bed,

His head tucked into his knees

It was scary for clay to see his best friend like this

Clay carefully sat next to george. He did it slowly

"George let me see you," Clay whispered,

He grabbed georges LED remote changing the colour from green to white so he could see

George looked up,

His lip was split, and his hand was also split

"Wh.. What happened.." Clay asked

George shook his head

He got a peice of paper and wrote it down, Only half telling the truth

"I fell and hit my lip banging my hand in the process"

It was a lie,

George was having a panic attack, which revolved him punching a wall and from the pain falling back splitting his lip, causing the yell

Clay hugged george tight, George sighed with a shaky breath accepting the gesture

That's what the scream was..

The power was still out and it was 10pm at night leaving everything pitch black,

"I'm gonna go bring george food," Clay yawned standing up

"Okay," Nick also yawned

Clay went into the kitchen grabbing a bowl and putting cereal into it,

Clay heard foot steps behind him, presuming it was Nick, clay spoke happily

"Hello nick" He giggled

That's until he saw the flashlight reflection on the floor,

He turned around quicker only to see george stood there,

"George.." He whispered hugging him

George didn't hug back he just stood there,

Nick came into the kitchen shining a flashlight,

George could see his two best friends, not as clearly as he would've liked to, but he could

George sat down at the island,

Nick and Clay both sat next to him

"Nyctophobia" George whispered

Nick furrowed his brows
