TW:Anxiety Attack

Dylan POV:

Today so far, has sucked to say the least. I forgot to take my anti-anxiety medication this morning because I woke up later than normal and I had a 10:00am class to get to. There were only two others left in the house which was Madison and Alex because they didn't have any classes until later tonight. I was late to my first class because I got stopped by another teacher who was asking why my assignment was late because it was supposed to be turned in by 8pm last night. I didn't get the chance to see Cami or Marah before I got to class which means not only did, I forget my meds, but I don't know where either of them are at which just heightens my anxiety more. I finished my first class and now I get to have a bit of free time before my next class which is in an hour. I head up to the library that I normally meet someone from the group so we can hang out for a bit before our next classes, but when I got up there, I seen two people already sitting in my usual spot, I turn to look and find an empty spot that is normally an alternative if someone is in the other spot. I walk over and place my bag down on the floor before sitting at the table and laying my head down on my arms. I start tearing up and slightly shaking as the effects of an anxiety attack set in, trouble breathing, rapid heart rate, and an extreme headache. I feel someone come and tap me gently on the shoulder, but I don't have it in me to acknowledge them.

"Babe? C'mon now, take a breath with me," Cami, she showed up. I lift my head to look at her, tears streaming down my face. We are in a more secluded portion of the library, so I don't hesitate before reaching out for her to hold me, slipping faster than I ever have.

"Oh, baby boy, c'mere," She picks me up and starts slowly pacing in the small corner we are in that's blocked off by some shelves. She holds me securely while she reaches down to grab her bag and pulls out a paci and a stuffie for me. I quickly accept the paci and stuffie cuddling into her more as she sits in another chair cradling me while gently rocking.

"It's okay pumpkin, mama is here now don't worry," she whispers soothingly, and I cling to her like she would disappear.

Marah's POV:

I hear my phone buzz while I'm sitting talking with Tyler and Sam in the Lunchroom.

*Message from: Cam<3: Hey can you meet me in the library? I'm up here with Dyl and he's little.

I hurriedly pack up my things and say a quick explanation to Ty and Sam before heading off. I rush through the halls until I get up the stairs that lead to the library. I walk in and look around until I spot the corner Dyland likes to sit in sometimes. I head over to it and see Cami sitting in a chair with Dylan clinging to her so tightly his knuckles are turning white. I can see him shaking and there are tears falling down his face. A silent sob racks through his body as he shoves his head closer into Cami's neck.

"Hey pumpkin, Bubba is here," I slowly walk over to him while looking at Cami who seems extremely worried. Normally his attacks aren't this bad, I don't blame her. I sent Alex a quick message asking if she saw if he took his meds this morning. They say he was out the door five minutes after walking down the stairs and didn't even go into where the meds are kept. Poor boy has been separated from us all day and he forgot his meds this morning. I pulled out a spare bottle of water I had and a small bottle of the same type of meds he takes. I started carrying them around after he got the new kind because sometimes, he forgets them. I hurriedly grabbed a pill from the bottle and brought it over to the boy whose cries had slowed to sniffles. I get the pill into his mouth and give him some water, he has never had an issue swallowing pills, big or little. He calms down a bit more now that we are both here. About 10 minutes later the meds have taken full effect and he's almost fully calmed down. We sat for another 20 minutes before he started coming out of his headspace. I looked at my phone to see I had another class starting in ten minutes. I quickly grabbed my bag and placed it on my shoulder before turning to Cami and giving her a quick peck, and then turning to Dylan who was sitting back in his own chair and giving him another peck before waving and getting to class.

Dylan's POV:

Once Marah left, I was fully big again. Cami is sitting in the other chair on her phone seemingly messaging someone, probably Madison or Alex because they are still at the house. I turn to check the time on my phone and see my next class doesn't start for another 20 minutes which means I don't have to leave yet. I pull out my notes for the next class to start reviewing because we have a quiz today.

*Timeskip to after school*

Dylan's POV:

I finally made it home, I'm one of the last to come back because I had a class that ran long. Tommy, Cami and Alex are cooking dinner. Tyler and Sam aren't in the living room or playroom, so they are either both upstairs or they went out. Marah and Madison are in the living room, helping each other study for upcoming tests. I go to sit in the kitchen and talk with everyone before sitting down to dinner. We end the night off in the living room watching a movie, falling asleep wherever and not caring about the rest of the night.

There we areeeee
