Steve Rogers
w: anxiety attack⇢ Steve when, he is worried
about you...ღ
You were curled into a ball experiencing an anxiety attack which hit you out of the blue. You felt your chest constricting and you couldn't breathe properly so that's how Steve Rogers,your boyfriend found you. On the floor,in a ball,breathing shakily. He was in his uniform due to being on parol after some bad stuff went down in New York. Things were quiet so Natasha told him to go home and see you. Especially since he couldn't stop thinking about his girl but Steve didn't expect to come home to you experiencing an attack.He knew about your anxiety and the attacks but Steve never had to witness one. The Captain America hero left his shield by your door,removed his mask then immediately rushed to your side. You felt his arms wrap around you from behind like a safety blanket as he whispered a greeting and kissed the side of your head,you moved closer.
So close you could smell him, he smelled like chocolate mint and sunflowers and you breathed him in as it calmed you a bit. Turning around to face him while he whispered reassuring words and played with your long hair.
An hour or so had passed and the only time he left was to get you water. As you drank from the cup, you felt Steve's concerned ocean coloured eyes on you. He gently retrived the cup and placed it on the side table then turned back to you. You pushed back a wisp of your hair before standing up to cup Steve's face, your thumb stroking his cheek.
Eyes burning into his you saw the empathy in them and it made your heart fill with love for the Avenger. It made you emotional to know that you had someone whom loved and cared immensely about you, so much so that he always stood by your side.
You leaned your forehead against Steve's,hand still cupping his face as you kiss him softly. Attempting to convey your emotions through it while Steve takes you into his hold. He kisses the top of your head then leads you to the bed where he begins brushing your hair back in a rhythm, making you soon fall asleep.
Steve's mind was a thinking field right now. He wanted to ask you if anything had happened to trigger it and talk to you and yet he also didn't want to push it or say something wrong but Steve couldn't stop worrying he wanted to desperately help you and that's why when you fell asleep he removed himself quietly and crept out onto the fire escape. He exhaled sharply as the puffs of cold air escaped his mouth.
The man looked out for a moment at the city skyline of New York then back at you inside for a second and his heart warmed at the sight of you draped between the covers as the light from the moon casted a shadow onto your sleeping form and his shield which rested against the wall near his cap fingerless gloves. God he wanted to help you,to save you but he didn't know how to. God knows he wished he knew...
Steve glanced back at the device in his hand and he began thumbing through it. He knew someone that suffered and survived anxiety but he knew that Tony wasn't one to casually talk about it instead his style was more of using humor to cover his pain up and brushing it off like it meant nothing when that truly wasn't the case and so Steve scrolled past Tony's name and found Bruce but he knew Bruce was back in India helping and the timezones were odd. So he thumbed through further and found Rhodey James aka Tony Stark's best friend and maybe this would be better, asking someone on the support end what to do and so he clicked call, brought the device to his ear and waited...
On the fifth ring,Rhodey picked up. He mentioned he was doing left over work from the day and Steve apologized about disturbing. After Rhodey assured Steve it was fine and he could talk. Steve licked his lips before breathing out. He held the device harder as the words fell forward. He explained to Rhodey that he saw you in one of your anxiety attacks, he didn't give much details considering how it felt personal even though Rhodey and everyone that cared about you,knew about them but Steve still felt it was private and so he shared less details about you and more about his concerns.
Rhodey spoke ʻʻYou are doing the best that you can. I'm sure Y/n appreciates you just being there, by her side. Helping her through it all. You can't do anything else,Steve and neither can she. You can both just breathe through it together and stay by her when she needs you. With Tony it was the same except he wasn't willing to take up that support or help. He handled it in his own Tony way like how he preferred to handle most things but I know Y/n holds onto you, I've seen it. So you hold onto her,Cap. The same way you always have been.ʼʼ
This advice made Steve feel somewhat relieved, hearing it from Rhodey made him understand that's all he could do and so he thanked the man before disconnecting the line.
He took one more look at the skyline before retreating back into the warmth,back to you.
After stripping out of his uniform and into some of his comfy clothes he always kept in your drawer. Steve made his way to bed,you felt his warmth and his arms go around you in your sleepy haze so you cuddled closer and this brought a soft smile onto his face.
ʻʻGoodnight, sweetheartʼʼ he whispered,falling asleep beside you.
