Saiki's POV

It was first period. I was sitting in class listening to the teacher rambling about geography or something, I wasn't really listening.

I was thinking mostly. Thinking about things I would never usually think about; like how I think that I would like to have just not existed in the first place. I know, weird huh?

Those kind of thoughts always made me angry. No, not angry.. I don't really know what this feeling is actually. It was suffocating. I felt like I couldn't breathe.

What is this?

I needed to get out of there. I waited until the teacher wasn't looking and made a run for the door out of there. The bathroom wasn't too far, I could go there. Once I reached the bathroom I checked to make sure no one else was in any of the stalls using my x-ray vision. No one.

I walked over to the sink and turned on the faucet so I could splash cold water on my face. Once I did so I looked at myself in the mirror. 'Why did I have to exist?' I thought.

'It would've been so much easier to be born as someone else..'

As I kept thinking the feeling got stronger

And stronger

And stronger.

Until the feeling completely overtook my mind..

Third POV

Nendou and Saiki had the same class. And Nendou was wondering where his buddy was going when he saw him get up and leave.

So he decided to go check!

He saw the blur of pink hair turn into the washroom and followed, walking slowly in case anyone else was in the hall. He turned to go to the washroom and opened the door.

Saiki didn't hear the door open. He had found himself on the ground, knees pulled up to his chest. He couldn't control his breathing.

Out of control

He couldn't see straight and his vision was blurry. He felt a hand rest on his shoulder but couldn't see who's hand it was. The figure said something but Saiki couldn't make it out.

"-ay bu-"

Can't control

No control

Saiki began to rock back and forth, trying to soothe himself. This has happened to him once before but he couldn't remember how to stop it from happening.

———

When Nendou opened the door he saw Saiki sitting on the floor, knees curled up to his chest. "Woah, Buddy!" He said concerned. Nendou rushed over to Saiki and knelt down beside him. "Hey, you okay, buddy?" He asked. Saiki didn't respond.

Nendou placed his hand on Saiki's shoulder and drew circles with his thumb. Nendou was worried. He'd never seen his Buddy like this before. It was...

Strange..

"Hey, Buddy, it's okay. Y'know that your in the bathroom right? Nothing in the bathroom is dangerous." Nendou said dumbly. He didn't really know how to comfort someone properly but surprisingly it was working. Saiki was calming down.

Nendou kept talking.

"It's okay, Buddy. Just keep breathing pal." He said comfortingly. Saiki stared down at the floor with tears rolling down his face as he listened to Nendou's words. He tried his best to level off his breathing.

"Can I give you a hug?" He asked. Saiki was a little taken aback that Nendou actually knew how to help someone through a panic attack. Saiki nodded twice and Nendou wrapped him up in his arms. Saiki gripped Nendou's shirt tightly in his fist as he shook.

Nendou rubbed Saiki's back softly. "That's right, pal, keep breathing."

Saiki soon fully calmed down and Nendou explained to the teacher that Saiki wasn't feeling well. Nendou walked Saiki home and helped him inside, explaining what happened to Saiki's parents.

Maybe Nendou wasn't that bad...
