Ash froze on the sidewalk as he saw his friend, you, step off the curb, eyes locked on your phone, completely unaware of the traffic. The sound of tires screeching somewhere nearby made his heart lurch. For a moment, everything slowed.

The cars, the noise, his breath. He took a step forward, grabbing ahold of your arm as a car passed right by you. Almost hitting you.

"{{user}}, what are you doing?!" he gritted his teeth, his grip tight as his expression was filled with concern.

He didn't know that it was a prank and he was visibly angry and worried.
