Sitting out at the picnic tables of the school, Lily looked down at her sketch pad and simply drew a nearby tree. The girl was alone on that table, while the others simply roamed around the grounds - only there to pass by, to head over to their next class. Some had their free time just like she did, and they all simply talked to each other instead of doing work. University life was quite hard, the girl didn't understand why most of them were not taking it seriously at all. She even saw one of them rip apart their assignment, that was at least based on what she heard.
As the Lily continued minding her own business, she suddenly smelled a faint scent of smoke. This made her cover her nose and mouth right away, as she then looked up and saw a group of boys approach her. One of them were the ones who were smoking, and it made her pack up her things with her other hand and simply stand up to leave - since she guessed that they were claiming the table from a newbie like her "No, don't go" the boy who was smoking told her, as he grabbed her free hand and made her stay "We wanted to join you, not to have you leave" he then said, smiling - which made the girl shake her head and try to break free from his grip, Yet, she failed.
With that, the boy chuckled "Scared of a little smoke?" he asked, noticing how she was eyeing the cigarette - since he was obviously unaware of how sensitive Lily's triggers were when it came to her sickness. No one knew she had it, everyone simply thought of her as the newbie of the school and not the fragile girl she was "Please, let me go" the girl said, having it slightly muffled because of her hand over her mouth "What?" the boy then asked, as he chuckled once again. It made the girl sigh and motion for her hand to be released "Oh, come on" he then added, as he tugged on the girl to sit back down "It's just smoke, there's nothing to worry about" he now sucked in his cigarette and blew the smoke towards her face. This made the girl squeal and quickly look away, but she was too late.
Lily accidentally inhaled the smoke and it gave her the strength to tug herself free, yet she failed to escape. The girl tripped from the bench and landed on the ground, coughing and in need of air. The boys thought she was over reacting, yet her lips started to turn pale as she started breathing heavily as if she was in a bubble that was running out of oxygen "H-help.." she breathed out as her fingers clenched onto the soil, knowing how no one seemed to have noticed how she was literally struggling to breath at that moment.
