Chapter 1: New School

I, Skyler Maybelline Roscow, am lost in the maze of love. It was my Sophomore year in college, I had transferred over to a new University, since problems occurred from my last one. Ashley Carol Cooper, my best friend and partner in everything, had to go to BYU's university in Utah, or else we would have been discovered for our real Identities as singers again. I remember when we approached Henry, our manager, telling him about our wish and how we are going to disguise ourselves as different people in the school. It wasn't our fault that some student reporters and music students took too much of an interest in us. So we have this one last shot, and to blend in more Caroline and I split to different schools until our interview, collaborations, and concerts with Why Don't We happen in 3 months.

As I looked up at the towering building in front of me, I felt the tremors rack through my body. I took deep breaths and did my exercises to calm my shaking body, normally I had Ash next to me to help calm me down, now she wasn't next to me to help with the attacks anymore. I reached up and clung to the gemstone necklace that was around my neck. We got each other a gemstone necklace to have the feeling that the other was always close, and to remember each other by. I moved to sit down on the stairs, and I placed my head in my hands. "OMG are you ok!?" I hear a thick english accent voice say. "Kara, don't shout at the poor girl" I hear a light masquline american accent say. "Jack, look at her she is definitely not alright!" I feel her sit next to me on the step and start rubbing my back for comfort. "Jack!" I hear a voice say and the sound of running feet coming closer to me. I felt my panic attack get worse, I was panting to get air in my lungs when there were 5 pairs of feet standing in front of me. My heart started pounding in my chest so hard I gasped, and cried out in pain. I felt their worry, like they were waves drifting through the air. "What's wrong sweetie?" the girl said. I lifted my head up and opened my mouth to speak, and nothing came out of my mouth. I then see a tall boy, with black hair sit down on the other side of me, say "She's having a panic attack, aren't you?" I turned my head to face him and I nodded my head in confirmation. He then asked me if I had done the exercises to help calm myself, and he told me to do that again. " to help you calm down I will introduce myself and my friends here, so as to not make you freak out even more". I took a deep breath and nodded slowly. He introduced himself as Corbyn, and he pointed at everyone as he said their names.

Soon enough I was able to breathe and think clearly. "T-Th-Thank you, f-for helping m-me" I said in a soft, shaky voice. Corbyn nodded to me as he stood up, making me blush, and he held out his hand as an invitation to help me stand up. I took it, because after big panic attacks my legs tended to act like a baby fawn as they try to stand up for the first time. Soon as I was standing up, Corbyn let go of my hand and as I tried to move I tripped on my feet and started to fall forward. I felt some strong arms wrap around my waist and stop my fall. When I felt my feet were firm on the ground, I looked up to see Corbyn once again. I felt my face heat up even more, I was pretty sure it was beet red. "You good?" he said, I nodded, still blushing. Thankfully the girl, Kara I think is what her name was, jumped up and rescued me from Corbyn's arms, "I think I will take it from here Besson" she said. The name rang a bell in my head, Corbyn Besson was the one who helped me, Jack Avery was the man that approached me with the girl, Jonah was the tall one, the one with bleached tips was Daniel Sevey, and the shorter one was Zach Herron, the members of Why Don't We.

Why Don't We is here! Oh Oh god! I tried to stay in my character, "I'm Maybline Ross, first off thank you so much for your help. I haven't had such a panic attack in years!" I said. Daniel was the first to speak, "Well I for one am glad that you are alright, and just outta curiosity why was this panic attack so much worse?" I quickly looked towards the ground as I answered, "Well I have a friend that always helps me when I get panic attacks, but she got accepted to BYU in Utah and I got accepted here, so we plan on finishing college and then seeing each other in New York in 3 months." I felt small arms hug me and Kara's voice enter my ears saying, "Well now you have us! We go to this university, or I do. These boys already graduated, they are just gonna hang around here for me to graduate, but I get a release so I can go with them to New York in 3 months for their concert!" I laughed at her childish excitement. "I have an idea! Maybe Maybline can come with us to New York as my plus one!, Babe we can pay for her ticket! Please!", she looked at Jack. I looked at her, worry building up inside of me, "Oh...I can't, I can't let you do that. I can get a ticket just fine and I don't have a lot of luggage to take with me. I-". "Ok first off you and I are going shopping at the mall, then you are coming with me to New York!" Kara said, cutting me off. "We would happily pay for your Ticket Maybelline", Corbyn said, "I want to get to know you more". The boys all agreed and with a few more attempts to escape, I had to agree.
