"Hello? Brett you okay?" Gabby Dawson asked as she answered the phone.
Stella immediately looked up from her plate when she heard her blonde friends name.
"Okay honey. I'll be over as fast as i can I'm gonna bring Stella also. Okay?" Dawson said as she stood up and walked to out her shoes on. As she hung up the phone she yelled, "Stella come on. We're going to Brett's"
"Why? What's going on?" The curly head women asked confused.
"I'm not sure she just said that she needed me." Gabby said as she walked out of the door.
The two women rushed to the car and drove as fast as they can, without breaking the law, to their friends. As soon as the two parked their car they half ran half jogged to their three friends apartment. When they got to the door, finding it locked they began knocking loudly and rapidly.
"Jeez, what is going on? You two miss me already. Its only been 3 hours." Otis announced as he opened the door to the apartment.
"Is Sylvie in her room?" Stella asked ignoring Otis.
"Yea why is she okay?" The Russian man asked. The two women ran to where the blondes room was ignoring the looks from Cruz and questions from Otis.
Gabby ran into Sylvie room with Stella barley a step behind. They saw Sylvie sitting in an empty corner of her room, in the same sweats she left work in, crying her eyes out.
"Hey, honey. What's wrong?" Gabby asked concerned if she was hurt.
"I-I c-can't n-not h-he-here. I c-can't d-do it." Sylvie stuttered her breathing becoming erratic.
Gabby was about to soothe her friend and tell her to take calming breaths but Joe walked in to the room, "Hey Brett. You okay."
Instead of answering, Sylvie's face paled as she pushed herself even further into the corner, her breaths coming out in short little puffs and tears cascading down her face.
"Joe. Can you please go wait outside. Shut the door also." Stella stated without looking away from her friend.
Gabby and Stella didn't want to touch the girl even after their male friend had left, unsure of how she would react.
"Hey, Sylvie, look at me please." Dawson asked softly trying to get the younger girls attention.
"I need you to try and take a deep breath. Is it okay for me and Stella to come sit with you?" Sylvie nodded as she gasped for air, choking on tears. Sylvie kept focusing on her breathing with both of her female friends rubbing her arms and back soothingly.
"You okay now honey?" Stella asked once her friend had calmed down and rested her head against her shoulder. The two women felt their friend nods slowly, almost scared.
"Sylv, I know you don't want to talk about it, but we need to know what caused the panic attack. It was a bad one." Dawson asked fearing the answer.
'Her panic attack got out of hand when Cruz walked in. Could he have hurt her? No, he would never. He adores her and so does Otis.'
"I can't" Sylvie whispered so quietly you had to strain to hear her.
"Yes you can." Stella whispered back but as soon as she felt her friend come tense again she cam up with a new idea, "How about you come back to Gabby's apartment with us. Casey isn't their he is out for the day with Boden. You want to do that?" Stella asked, holding her breath waiting for an answer.
The younger women nodded. Gabby stood up first and and then reached her hands out to help her other friends off of the floor.
"Do you want to pack an overnight bag? You can stay the night with me if you want to?" Gabby asked trying to make eye contact with the girl who was avoiding everyone's eyes.
"Uh-m s-sure. I-if you don't mind." Sylvie uttered hoping her friend wouldn't mind. She just wanted to sleep.
"Of curse I don't mind come on, we can pick some pajamas and an outfit for tomorrow." Gabby announced as she picked up Sylvie's duffle bag off of the floor from work, and opened it allowing Sylvie to pack a sweat shirt and sleep shorts for bed, and leggings and a long sleeve shirt for the following day.
"Come on." Stella said picking up the duffle bag and beginning to walk out of the room when she noticed Sylvie wasn't following her. "Hey its okay. We're just gonna walk to my car okay?" Gabby said as she placed a hand on the small of her friends back.
"Um but- um" Sylvie stuttered "Do you think they will be mad?"
"Who? Cruz and Otis? No!" Stella said as she opened the door. "Do you want me to tell them where we are going before we go? You can stay in the room with Gabby the whole time while I talk to them."
"Yes please" Sylvie said looking up slightly and making a split second eye contact with Stella. When Stella came back into the room after telling the two guys just to be really quiet and not to jumpy when Sylvie came out, that they were going to Dawson's, to say they were concerned was an understatement.
Sylvie burried her face into Gabby's shoulder before walking out, incase her roommates were disappointed in her.
"Hey honey. You can look now we are at the car. Okay? I need to drive but Stella can sit in the back with you or you can sit in the front. Its up to you." Gabby asked.
"Um can you stay with me please, Stell." Sylvie whispered again.
"Yea, yea. Of course. Absolutely. Lets get in." Stella announced as she opened the back door to Dawson's car allowing Sylvie to get in first.
The two women made a brief eye contact across the car.
And they were both thinking the same thing.
What could be going on with Sylvie?
