Heartstopper Nick x Charlie oneshots

Comfort

Tw: This contains thoughts of death, and a panic attack

Charlie was at home and he heard his dad and his mom talking quietly.

"What am I gonna tell Tori and Charlie? I cant go up to them and straight up say 'Im sick with a deadly disease and I have a 50/50 chance of getting rid of it and I could die', I dont know what to do." said Charlies dad

"Just think, try to tell them." said his mom

Charlie softly tip toed back to his room. He didn't know what to do.

"Charlie we're leaving! We will be back in 3 hours or so!" his mom said

Tori had a therapy appointment and while that happened they are gonna do who knows what then mom and Tori had a hair appointment. 

"Ok! I love you!"Charlie replied.

They left and Charlie didn't know what to do with the information he just found out. He called Nick. He always helped Charlie calm down.

Nick: Hey babe. Whats up?

Charlie: Can you come over please?

Nick: Of course I'll be right there! Love You!

Charlie: Love you too.

Thank god Nick was coming.
Thoughts started to flood in
What if my own father dies? Hes gonna die? No no. He cant die. But hes going to.

He started to have a panic attack. He was sobbing so loud he couldn't even hear Nick knocking on the door.
Finally he just walked in. He went to Charlies room and saw Charlie sitting in the middle of his room sobbing

"N-nick I cant b-breath, I cant f-fucking breath!" Charlie said.

"Charlie, remember in through the nose, out through the mouth. Now tell me, what are 5 things you can see?"

"You, My bed, My drums, My night stand and my phone."

"Good four things you can hear?"

"You, the rain outside, the clock ticking and the heater downstairs."

"Good, 3 things you can feel?"

"Your hands, the carpet in my room and my hair."

"Good, 2 things you can smell?"

"Your cologne and my clothes because I washed them this morning."

"Good, one thing you can taste?"

Charlie kisses Nick.

"Your very minty toothpaste"

"Are you ok?"

"Yeah, I think Im fine now."

"Why were you having a panic attack?"

"I overheard my dad say he had a deadly disease and he couldn't tell me and Tori because he could get rid of it but it could also die."

"Im so sorry baby."

Nick hugged Charlie and Charlie hugged back but tighter

Charlies dad came home and Nick had to leave.

"Charlie, Tori I wanna talk to you." Said Charlies dad.

"Ok" Tori and Charlie replied.

"So Im very sick, or I was, I had a deadly disease that I could get rid of, I had it for a while. But I went to the doctor today and they said I finally got rid if it! Im gonna live! Sorry I never told you about it before kids. I was scared you would freak out."

Charlie wasnt gonna say that he overheard. He just hugged his dad. Tori joined the hug. Nick was happy that Charlie was happy. His dad was now fine.

Authors note: My best friend suggested this. Also the breathing exercise and talking to the person that is having the panic attack about their five senses really help distract them :) so if someone is having a panic attack try that
