Inhumanly Handsome {Muke/Cashton}

Panick Attack

Ashton pov

Luke simply fainted in my arms and I looked around nervously, calling for the nurse. There’s no way I would be able to pick up Luke. Luckily the quarterback ran up to us and scooped Luke up in his arms. I followed him to the nurses office, she looked Luke over and then sighed.

“I’ll call Liz.” She states, I nod and sit down next to the bed. As I held Luke’s hand I though back of the many times he’d done this but as kids. The first time we were out biking together, I screamed for help and sat there crying. It took about 20 minutes until Ben had found us, apparently they were all out looking for us anyway since Luke had left his phone at home. I thought he’d died and well it took a lot of calm words and explaining to tell me what had actually happened. After that had happened my parents got me a phone to so I could always call if it happened again.

It would happen when he stresses too much about something or his heart starts beating faster and he can’t calm it down. Reasons the lucky bastard never had to join in PE! But not all the time, if he’s hydrated enough or he watches his heartbeat he should be fine. I just wonder what had happened to make him freak out like this. I remember when we were biking, he hit a rock and felt himself fall over, as a kid it just freaked him out. I guess you could say that instead of going in panic attack mode his body just decides to switch itself to stand-by mode.

“Ashton!” Liz called as she ran in, yes ran in.

“What happened?” Liz asks me worriedly, it’s been half an hour and Luke hadn’t woken up. He might not wake up for a few more hours really, sometimes he woke up in like 10 minutes, other times in 4 hours.

“I don’t know, we were having lunch and then it happened. I don’t even know what he was thinking about that could have caused this.” I admit to her, she frowns and then looks down at Luke.

“Let’s get him home.” Liz says, I look at her with raised eyebrows and then she frowns.

“Course, ehm. How did you get him here?” Liz asks me, she knew there’s no way I could get Luke to the car. Ben and Jack didn’t come with her of course.

“Ashton?” Calum’s smooth dark voice asks from by the door. I stop myself from blushing as I looked up at him. He immediately walked over and cupped my face, wow what was he doing?

“Why are you crying?” He asks me, I noticed a faint purple bruise on his jaw and his eye but so faint that they had to be at least 2 weeks old.

“L-Luke.” I mumbled, looking over at the bed. Calum gasps and then looks at me worried.

“What happened?” He asks me.

“H-Happens more often. We can’t get him to the car.” I tell him, he nods and lets go of my face. He picks up Luke like the taller lad didn’t weigh anything.

“Come on, let’s get him home and then you can explain what happened ok?” Calum asks me, I nod and the nurse writes us notes.

“I’m sorry we had to meet under these circumstances Mrs. Hemmings. I’m your new neighbor, Calum.” Calum introduces himself. Wow his voice was really smooth, gosh Ashton like you haven’t swooned over that enough in the last 24 hours. Seriously, get a grip!

“Ow, it’s nice to meet you Calum and please call me Liz.” Liz says to him.

Calum easily carries Luke to the car and then comes with us, also carrying Luke up to his room once we get him home. Calum sits down on the floor next to the bed as I sit on the bed, playing with Luke’s hair.

“He’s ok, ehm he tends to faint when he’s going into panic mode, you know instead of having a panic attack. He usually wakes up between 10 minutes to 4 hours after fainting.” I tell Calum, Calum looks over my legs and at Luke worried.

“Do you know what he was panicking about?” Calum asks me, I shrug.

“It hasn’t happened in years, the last time was when he kissed a guy and the guy just ran off.” I say, laughing a little eventhough it wasn’t funny.

“We were lucky Ben was actually with him on their sort of date. Before that it was when he came out to his parents.” I say to Calum, Calum nods and then looks at his phone that was ringing. He pressed ‘ignore’ and then looked back up at me.

“So you’re sure he’ll be ok?” Calum asks me, I nod.

“You’re really close.” Calum says, watching me run my fingers through Luke’s hair.

“Yes, but we’re not a thing or anything if you’re thinking that.” I tell him.

“I wasn’t thinking it, because that would end up with you bitch slapping me from what I’ve heard.” Calum says with a laugh, I nudge the back of his head with my knee.

“Shut up.” I mutter, Calum groans and then ignores the call he got again.

“You can answer you know, and leave if you want. Thanks for carrying him though. Liz and I would have never have gotten him home if it wasn’t for you.” I tell him, He shrugs.

“It’s just Michael wondering where I am but we had a fight and I’m not talking to him right now.” Calum says.

“What was he mad at?” I ask him, because well we were with Calum during lunch so we would have known if he did anything wrong. Sure he told us about Michael and his unusual desires but there’s no way Michael heard that.

“Just something, let’s say he’s got a short temper.” Calum says, he gives me a fake smile and then rolls his eyes as his phone rings again.

“Answer it, it’s for the best.” I tell Calum, he nods and answers it.

AN/ OOOH Luke had a panick attack :s Ok so this might not actually be a thing but in this story it is! Luke's body goes into stand-by mode when he's having a panick attack. It's important for the story line ok. Do not tell me this can't happen, it's fiction for a reason! Don't actually have any questions other than, why do you keep calling Calum Mickey?
