Parenting class

At the parenting class:

Amelia's pov:

I walked in and all I could see was couples everywhere. Instantly I felt out of place, there was a rush of anxiety in my body, until I was met with the sweetest smile. She had these dimples and sparkling light blue eyes that made me all flustrered. We broke eye contact when the techer walked in.

"All right everyone, please take a seat, we will start the lesson soon"

I sat down in the front of the class where there was an empty seat. 30 minutes into the lesson I felt my anxiety grow once more when we were learing how to swaddle a baby. "Damnit" I muttered to myself as I did it wrong for the third time. I looked around and saw everyone chatting with their partner, doing it together. "How am I supposed to do this on my own?" I thought to myself. I started sweating, got a rising pulse and heart palpitations. How was I supposed to do this without Ryan. My breath got heavier as I realised I was having a panick attack.

Arizona's pov:

This class was more difficult than I thought it would be. Eveyone had their partner helping them, laughing and chatting, while I was struggling with every single task we were given. I had to go to the bathroom and also felt like I kinda needed a break so I walked out. When I was done in the bathroom I started walking back to the classroom when the gorgeus brunette I noticed earlier rushed out. She looked upset and had her hand on her chest while sitting down on a bench. I slowly walked closer to see her crying and breathing heavily.

"Hey, are you okay?" I asked sitting down.

"N-no. I-I am having a panick attack", she said stuttering her words. She was was crouching, looking down at her hands between her legs  who were shaking intensely.

"Okay, I am here, for anything you need", I put my hand on over hers and she looked up. She had puffy eyes and rosy cheeks. "How about we go to the window so you'll get some fresh air". She simply nodded. She stood by the window while I stood behind her and stroked her back. After a while she had calmed down.

"I'm sorry it all just got overwhelming in there. Thank you for helping, but you should get back to your partner, he must wonder where you are", she said looking down.

"Hey it's fine, I just want to make sure you're okay. And also, I didn't come with anyone so there is really no problem", I said which made her slightly smile. "So what upset you?"

She took a deep breath before speaking. "The baby's father died 7 months ago and I'm scared that I can't do this alone. I didn't realize it would be so difficult to see all of these other couples. It just reminded me of him and what I'm missing."

"Oh I am so sorry for your loss." I looked deep into her eyes before continuing. "I actually feel the same, I'm going to raise my child alone too. My ex wife and I split right after I found out I was pregnant. I thought I would have someone by my side during this time, you know? Like a supportsystem."

"Thank you and I'm sorry too, for your divorce. Yes, you feel so alone in all of this." There was a pause before she suggested "Well how about we are each others supportsystem?"

I lit up and we both agreed on the idea. We later went back inside the class, however sitting down together this time.
