Summary: What happens when an agoraphobic and a man with DID have known each other for years. You along with Steven are the most awkwardest people when you're both around strangers, but always find comfort with each other. But after spending some time with him you realize he's been acting different.

(Still not sure if this will just be a one shot or if it will develop into a book. I'm very much in love with Moon Knight at the moment and Oscar Isaac is simply spectacular in it. I do hope I get his characters written well since it can be quite challenging. If anyone is interested in more please let me know!)

*****************

I continued knocking on the door to Stevens apartment and heard no sign of him on the other side. Damn it! That means I have to go out on my own. The thought of heading out alone, being surrounded by crowds of people began to fill me up with anxiety yet again.

"I-I can do it." This is what I get for getting up late. Even though it was extremely hot today, i decided to wear my hoodie since I felt extremely comfortable in it, it also means people won't stare at me.

Making my way outside of the building was when I noticed it was full of people passing by and others with their small shops. I felt my breathing quicken and my heart began to beat faster.

I stayed still close to the wall and felt my hands shaking. "Why did you knock on my door?" I bite my lip and remembered what he previously told me. "Take steady breaths and try to stay calm."

My hands pulled down to hood of my hoodie down and I quickly began to walk and continued to stare down at my feet. I was stupid enough to look up and my breathing hitched when I saw a few kids staring at me weirdly.

I'm gonna run then. My pace quickened and before I knew it I was running toward where Steven works. Where we both work. Unfortunately for me I was fired from my previous job which consisted of me staying up all day at my apartment, I was happy because that meant not interacting with another human being.

But some trouble happened and Steven did tell me a few months back that the museum needed employees. So, I had to work at a public space which made me feel very drained.

Steven is the only person I feel comfortable to be with, and because he knows of my extreme fear of being out in public, he started to help me out. Never pressured me or got tired when he knew I couldn't go any further.

It has been extremely hard but I feel like I've down great progress. Just a year ago everything was much worse where I wouldn't even go out to buy food for myself. I felt like there were eyes watching my every move.

Looking back up I noticed the museum up ahead not far from me. "Steven!" I began to shout when I started making my way closer to his working place. Ignoring the stares I was probably getting, because of it I was hiding my face with my hoodie.

I made it inside the museum building and started searching around for Steven, trying not to push or fall onto one of the many children here are having a field trip.

My eyes instantly lit up when I saw his figure up ahead behind a counter boredly messing up with whatever he was forced to do this time.

"Steven!!" I shouted running towards him. As soon he looked up through his dark tired eyes I was already almost on top of the counter leaning towards him almost our noses touching.

He froze in his spot surprised to see me here so early. He slowly took a step back. "(Y/N)? What's gotten you all giddy?" He asked through his English accent.

I began to pant and felt myself relieves that I made it this far. "I finally had the courage to come here on my own."

A smile spreaded across Steven's face, "Right! S-Sorry I called you earlier but never responded. Promise I'll treat you to lunch after we're done."
