35 - Overstimulated




Green and Blue were walking up to the dorms on campus as Yellow had work and then needed to study right afterwards for a test. So he didn't want Blue to be alone all day and encouraged Blue to hang out with Green, to try to bond a little. As they walked, Blue looked visibly upset.

Green noticed and sighed. "You've never been to a party before, huh." He spoke softly as Blue shook his head.

"I've never really had any friends in school.. Yellow was the only person I knew and he isn't much of a party person anyways." Blue awkwardly laughed, playing with his hair. Oh.. right. His ponytail was gone. He had forgotten that Yellow had cut his hair short.. it was still so weird.

He soon pulled out a vape. "Y..You don't mind right?" He asked as Green shrugged.

"Eh.. I din' see shit." He spoke. "Don't worry about it man, everything's gonna be fine. Maroon is a super cool chick and throws the best parties! You're gonna feel so alive!!" Green exclaimed as Blue laughed.

"Haha! Okay, okay! Don't draw attention to us!" Blue chuckled as Green finally made it the senior dorms. He went up and knocked onto the door.

It opened and a woman with red hair answered. She had on thin red shades and was wearing a crop top with some short shorts that were so low, it showed her red panty line. She had on rainbow striped thigh highs and red sneakers. Blue thought she seemed really cool.. "Yoooo! Green!"

"Maroon!" Green said as they both hugged. "Glad you could make it!" Maroon chuckled.

She then looked over at Blue. "Who's the kid?" She said.

"Maroon, don't be mean!" Green chuckled as he grabbed Blue's hand. "This is Blue. He's a good pal of mine."

Did Blue hear that right? Green considers him a friend? Wow.. this whole time he's just known as "Yellow's boyfriend"..

"Well then!" Maroon said before pulling Blue into a hug making him jump a little. "Any friend of Green is a friend of mine! Enjoy the party and try to let loose man, I can see it on your face. You're a lil tense." She then bent down to his level. "There's alcohol in the kitchen and if you need anything, come lookin for me." She said as she winked before walking inside.

Green walked inside soon after as Blue clutched onto Green's arm which was in his pocket.

"Just try to ease up and relax, alright?" Green spoke with a smile. Blue hesitantly nodded but deep down, he couldn't relax.

There were so many people.. Blue's grip on Green got tighter.

It felt like everyone was staring at him..

Blue held his chest, as Green soon slipped out of his grip and disappeared into the crowd.

In a state of panic, Blue called out to Green's name but the loud music drowned out his voice.

He shoved his way through the crowd, trying to search for an exit as he was in a state of serious panic. Some people gave him looks, some even shoved him back but he didn't care. He exited the party and there were still people outside.

He quickly walked down the hallway, and went into the bathroom as he leaned against the wall before sliding down onto the floor.

His heart was so FUCKING LOUD. could anyone else hear it?? He hoped not..

It felt like the air was being straight sucked right out of him as he clenched his fists, nails digging into his palms. He was extremely sweaty and now worried that maybe he smelled bad. He held his head as he started to get dizzy.

He hated crowds, he hated people. It was hard to get around when everyone else is an adult and your birthday is in November. The only 17 year old in college..

He started to tear up. He checked his phone.. 9:55pm. He looked at his texts. Nothing new from Yellow.. he pulled out his vape and started to take hit after hit after hit, in a desperate attempt to calm himself down.

He looked at his phone again. No texts from Yellow..

He started to cry as he pulled his knees to his chest. Just then the bathroom door swung open.

"Woah dude, you alright?" As Blue looked up, he saw Maroon. Now he was embarrassed.

She came over and sat next to him. "Not a party person?" She asked as Blue nodded.

"Yeah.. I remember my first party like it was yesterday." She sighed. "I think I was.. 17 at the time.. yeah." She spoke as Blue looked at her, wiping his tears.

"I was dragged by my ex— well, boyfriend at the time. But at that time, I was going through it and.. yeah I sat right there." She said smiling at Blue. "In that spot and cried for two whole hours. I wasn't much of a people person back then. It was my first year of college and I was still adjusting."

Blue sniffled. "I-I'm sorry for ruining your party.." Blue mumbled as Maroon's eyes widened.

"Oh no, sweetheart, you didn't ruin anything. It's completely normal to feel this way. You're getting overstimulated and that's okay, there's nothing wrong with that." She sighed. "I, myself am autistic, so I understand the struggles, ya know."

Blue gave a small laugh as he nodded.

"Don't ever put yourself down for being afraid, or overstimulated. We're all humans and even tho some of us function way more different than others, we're still.. us, ya know." She spoke. "We're all broken, but that's what makes us humans."

She smiled at him and he smiled back. Just then the bathroom door swung open and it was Green.

"Oh, thank goodness! You found him, I've been looking all over for him." Green said as he knelt down to his level. "A-are you hurt at all??"

Blue nervously laughed. "I'm fine.."

Maroon gave a smile to the two. "Just a classic case of the Party Panics. Don't worry, he'll be fine. He just needs a second to breathe."

"C..Can one of you bring me home actually? I'm kinda not feeling it. I feel sick.." Blue said as Maroon looked at Green.

"I can take him." She said as Green gave her a confused look.

"You sure? I don't want ya missing your own party.."

"Oh please. I wanna get out the house anyways." She said as she stood up. "Go back inside and enjoy yourself."

Green shrugged. "Okay. See ya Blue, feel better, okay?" He said as Blue nodded. Once Green left, Maroon grabbed his hand.

"Cmon lil fella, let's get you home." She smiled as he followed her.

Blue soon entered Yellow's house and the lights were all off, but he knew Yellow was home. His car was in the driveway. Blue took off his shoes and his hoodie before carefully walking up the stairs. He opened the door to the bedroom.

Yellow turned around in his chair as he had been studying a lot. "Blue?" He asked. "What are you doing home so early? I thought you were parting with Green.."  Yellow spoke.

Blue simply came over and sat on Yellow's lap, head over his shoulder. "Can I just.. stay here?" He spoke softly. "You can still study.. I just need you.."

Yellow smiled as he gave a sigh. "Of course you can, blueberry..~" he spoke in a low tone. The two sat like that for a couple more hours before Yellow yawned. He gently picked up Blue and placed him onto the bed before turning off the lights. He laid down with him, holding him close.

Today was terrible for Blue.. but Atleast he gained a new friend!
