TW: MINOR ANXIETY ATTACK

L E O N A R D O

_________________________

"You can't seriously be mad because I left you with your hands tied on the bed," I tell Iris as we board the private jet.

"Yes I am," she answers and playfully punches me in the arm.

I missed this side of Iris. We've been slowly getting back to our old selves and it feels good.

"I'm sorry baby," I apologize again for the thousandth time. "But you had a good time."

"Of course I did," she answers almost immediately. "I never had anyone eat my pussy from the back before," she reveals and I frown.

"Clearly they didn't know how to worship you," I answer and a small smile shows up on her face. I grab her bags and fix them up.

"I've also never had a boyfriend fake their death and cause me so much pain before either so," she shrugs at her unfinished sentence.

Damn.

Just when I thought that we were getting somewhere.

"I deserve that," I admit as she sits down and crosses her legs. "But I'm making up for it with this trip."

She sighs as I sit next to her and she grabs my hands in hers. "Leo?" She questions and my heart drops. The look on her face isn't good. The look on her face screams bad news.

"What is it, princess?" I ask with a straight face even though behind the mask, I'm begging her to not break my heart.

"If I can't forgive you after this trip, I think we should break u-" I don't want to hear those words come out of her mouth.

"Don't say it please." I would beg her for the rest of my life to forgive and take me back.

"I'm serious," she looks at me. "There wouldn't be a point in trying to fix this if I can't find it in me to move forward and forgive you."

I think I might actually die this time if I lose my precious Iris.

"Baby, I-" I start but stop myself because I feel a sob creeping up my throat. This trip will be worth it, okay? I have a surprise for you and it will prove to you just how much I love you and how sorry I am," I manage to say without breaking down.

"Okay," she answers and lays her head on my shoulder.

I wonder if she can feel my body shaking.

Thinking about losing her is giving my body chills and my palms are starting to get sweaty. I can feel it every time my heart beats and my entire body feels funny.

Am I having an anxiety attack?

"Are you okay?" Iris asks suspiciously as the jet takes off.

Too late for me to get out now.

"Yes baby, I am fine," I try to reassure her but she rolls her eyes.

"No, you're not." She takes her head off of my shoulder and sits on my lap instead. She wraps her arms around me and she lays her head on my chest. "Your heart is beating really fast."

"I know princess, I can't help it," I admit. "It's been happening for a while now and I don't know what to do."

She sits up and stares at me with a soft face. "Why didn't tell you you've been having anxiety attacks bab-Leo?"
