I'm currently out shopping with Alahna, we've done basically all the shopping we've needed to for the boys and of course got ourselves a few things. We're sitting in the food court when I get a call from Matt.
"Hey." I answer
"I need you." He shakily says into the phone
My eyes widen and immediately I'm worried.
"Matt what's wrong?" I say getting up to throw out my things, Alahna following behind me.
"I can't breathe." He says in between quick breaths
"Are you at the house? I'm leaving the mall right now." I look at Alahna and she mouths the word go.
"No I'm on the side of the road." He replies sniffling
"Okay send me your location, are Nick and Chris with you?" I ask leaving the mall
"No." He answers
"Okay Matt just take deep breaths I'm on my way." I say
"Okay." He breaths out
I've known about Matts anxiety for a while but have never experienced him having a panic attack like this one.
I quickly pull out of the parking lot after seeing where Matt is, he's not far from the mall. I know I can make it to him in about five minutes.
I see the van parked on the side of the road and pull up behind it. I get out and quickly run up to the drivers side, I open up his door and my heart drops. He has his hands on the wheel gripping it so hard his knuckles are white, he's shaking and there's a steady flow of tears running down his cheeks. As much as I want to pull him into a hug I know that can make it a lot worse.
"Matt look at me." I say
His head turns and he looks scared.
"Deep breaths ready? In." I state taking a deep breath in
He copies my actions breathing in a shaky breath. I hold it for a second before breathing out. We do this for a while until his breathing becomes more steady.
"You're okay Matt nothing is gonna happen to you." I reassure
His hands leave the steering wheel and he pulls me into a hug burying his head into my neck. I feel teardrops falling onto my skin and small sobs slipping from him. I hold him tighter rubbing his back.
"You're okay, everything is okay." I repeat
After a few minutes he pulls away and I bring my hands to his cheeks wiping his tears away.
"I don't know what happened, I was fine and then I wasn't." He says more tears falling from his eyes.
"I'm sorry Matt, I wish I could take it all away." I whisper trying to hold in tears of my own
Seeing him like this breaks my heart, he doesn't deserve to feel like this ever.
"Come on I'll drive you home and me and your mom will come get my car later." I say
