Stefan's pov :
It was a new day and i felt good except for the part of my brain that reminded me that we have the PE test today and have to run a marathon today. I checked my drawer for my inhaler just in case something happens.. I realised that I've run out of it .. But I don't have the guts to ask my father to buy a refill and it wouldn't work anyways because I don't have that much time and I would be late for school if I wait.. I see Damon's already ready and is wearing sports shoes.. It's his PE test too today apparently.. I don't have the heart tot tell him that I don't have my inhaler.. He'll worry too much.. He sees me and asks about stuff and obviously, as expected.. The inhaler question.. "Stef don't forget the inhaler.. You have it don't you? " I just nod because I don't want to lie to his face.. Even though I technically am doing it anyways.. We go to school together and I feel my chest hurting a bit and I get scared because earlier I thought not having the inhaler doesn't matter because I probably won't have any problems.. And I usually don't.. I haven't had many asthma attacks.. Though when I have them, it's really bad I get really panicked... The doctor said that it was because my lungs were weak or something I really didn't understand much of it.. They said it might pass but the chances are very less and I always catch cold every winter and I can't even breathe without lying on my side when that happens.. Last time I caught pneumonia and collapsed while trying to climb up the stairs to my room and couldn't breathe so Damon was really scared.. I had to get hospitalised and Damon always sat beside me because I was really scared alone.. He really cares a lot for me and I love him so much. I get really nervous about the whole inhaler thing as the pain in my chest doesn't pass .. "Damon.. I don't want to go to school.. " "Why? Are you not feeling good? Are you hurting somewhere? " "No.. I just.. " "What's the matter stef" "Nothing .. I just don't want to.. " "You already have missed a lot stef.. You shouldn't " "But.. " He gives me his 'just do what I say because I know Best' look that oddly reminds me of my mother and I smile to myself for a second and just continue walking to school with him. It was PE period and the coach started taking my tests.. First we had to do a few squats which already sort of left me out of breath and I was getting really scared now but kept quiet because I didn't want to freak anyone out.. I see Damon's class coming to the field as well.. It was a huge field and huge enough for two classes to have their tests together. I was kind of happy to see Damon here but also really frightened that something might happen to me and he'll be worried for me.. The coach called us to run the marathon.. I started out okay but I wasn't even halfway through the end when I started getting really out of breath.. I tried to stop , panting a bit, but my coach pushed me forward and asked me to continue running.. I started feeling dizzy.. I started getting really freaked out as I noticed my chest was flaring with pain and I couldn't breathe at all.. I could here my lungs making a feeble wheezing sound as I tried to gasp for air with my mouth open.. I stopped and fell to my knees trying to breathe.. But it just wouldn't happen.. I could feel tears burn in my eyes as my lungs felt like they were on fire and my vision was getting clouded.. I pressed my hand to my chest as if that would help but I didn't I was trying to breathe by doing everything I could think of and then I saw someone running towards me shouting my name.. It was Damon..

Damon's pov:
Stefan was there too when I entered the field for my PE test.. He has asthma and the doctor had adviced him not to do much physical activities and if needed, he should have an inhaler with him just in case he gets an asthma attack.. After a few while I thought about checking him up and I saw him running but he was really slow.. It looked like his feet were barely carrying him and he was panting.. All of a sudden he collapsed to his knees and started pressing his chest trying to breath.. Oh my god.. He was getting an asthma attack.. I ran towards him shoving people out of my way as all I cared about was to make him feel okay.. Last time he caught pneumonia, his asthma almost cost him his life.. It broke me to see him lie helplessly on the hospital bed scared to be alone because he thought that he was going to die.. I quickly pick him up in my embrace and try calming him down searching for his inhaler in his pockets.. "Stef.. It's okay... Deep breaths.. Calm down.. " I said, myself panicking.. There was no inhaler on him.. He kept gasping not able to breathe and I saw tears running down his cheeks "WHERE'S THE DAMN INHALER?!! " "D-dont have it-" He choked out and it all made sense now.. He was not wanting to come to school today because he ran out of his inhaler.. Oh my god what was I going to do now?!?! He was trying lying down on his side trying to breathe but failing .. I started calling for help not knowing what to do.. The coach quickly came and made him sit uptight , calm down and breathe in through his nose and out through his mouth but nothing worked he was freaking out.. I quickly picked him up and carried him to the school nurse praying to God for her to have an inhaler or something to make him feel better.. His chest was rising really slowly and I knew he was barely breathing.. He started looking pale.. The school nurse searched for an inhaler as soon as she could and helped him as I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding.. He could've died today.. My heart beating out of my chest.. He finally catches his breath and wipes his tears and I pull him into my arms and hug him tight.. "Why didn't you tell me stef.. You know what could've happened.. " " I didn't want to worry you.. " That's my brother for you.. Always selfless.
