If You Have Ghost One Shots...You Have Everything

Panic Attack (Rain)

Dating Rain has been nothing but amazing. He is so kind, accepting, loving, and sometimes slightly clingy. All of the ghouls notice how his anxiety has been reduced since you've arrived at the church, and even more so now that you were dating. However, sometimes at night his anxiety would get the best of him and he'd have slight panic attacks, but they were manageable. You would never want to leave his side at night in case he woke up in the middle of the night from a nightmare due to his past trauma before he was summoned, but it was your best friend's birthday tonight and Rain promised that he'd be okay for one night, so you go.

The club was packed. People were packed into the small building like sardines. Your friend rented out the VIP room in the corner and you guys were living it up. Music was blasting through the speakers, multi-colored lights painted the ceiling and walls, and the drinks were flowing. You tend to not like getting wasted so you were only on your third cocktail of the night. Your best friend, however, was pretty drunk since it was their birthday. Some of their other friends were making out with people on the leather couches that decorated the VIP lounge, some were dancing on the floor, and some were drunk at the bar. You stood off to the side of the lounge, not really wanting to partake in the soft porn happening in front of you. The DJ makes an announcement, "YO YO PARTY PEOPLE WE GOT A BIRTHDAY IN THE HOUSE!" Everyone in the club cheers, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY BSF/N! THIS ONE'S FOR YOU!" In Da Club by 50 Cent starts playing, "OMG Y/N COME ON!" they slur, grabbing your arm and dragging you to the floor. You laugh at their antics and decide to loosen up a little. You chug the rest of your drink, set the glass down onto a table, and run out to the middle of the floor. You're just swaying to the music, laughing at the drunk dances everyone was doing. Once the song ends, WAP by Cardi B and Megan the Stallion starts playing. You can't leave the floor now, so you start to dance the night away.

Back at the church, Rain, Sodo, Swiss, and Aether were rehearsing Griftwood, since for some odd reason none of them could play it right, "No. Sodo. I play the solo in the beginning. You take the second one." Aether said, clearly getting annoyed, "No I play all the solos. I LITERALLY RECORDED THE SONG DOING ALL THE SOLOS" Sodo yelled, heat radiating off of him. Rain jumped, getting overwhelmed by his friends fighting. Back in Hell his parents would yell at him over every miniscule thing that happened, he didn't do well around arguments. Swiss held his head in his hands, tired of his friend's bickering, "I don't give a fuck Sodo." Aether said back, still calm, "When we perform, I take the opening solo, so sit there and listen for once IN YOUR SATAN DAMNED LIFE" Aether yelled at the end, his anger getting the best of him. Rain closed his eyes, trying to focus on his breathing. He ran his finger down the frets of his bass, trying to just focus on grounding himself. Swiss noticed Rain starting to freak out, "Guys, stop." He says sternly. Aether and Sodo both look at him in anger, he tilts his head towards a clearly breaking down Rain.

Their faces soften, and both take a deep breath to calm themselves down. Rain feels the tension ease, he starts to calm down. Swiss breaks the silence, "Come on. Let's just run through something easy. How about Mary on a Cross?" They all nod and start playing. Rain's heart was still racing. Hearing Aether yell scared him more than anything. Usually Aether was the calm and collected one, but not this time. He could see it in his friend's face, the scowl permanently etched into his skin. He gulps and tries to focus back on the song, he misses a few notes. Sodo can't handle anymore, "DAMMIT RAIN YOU MESSED ME UP." He yelled, slamming his guitar down onto the couch. Tears immediately filled Rain's eyes as he stared at his clearly pissed off friend, "WHY CAN'T YOU JUST PLAY THE RIGHT FUCKING PART YOU ONLY HAVE FOUR DAMN STRINGS TO WORRY ABOUT AND YOU CAN'T EVEN DO THAT RIGHT." Sodo continued to berate him, now wildly swinging his arms, getting closer to the water ghoul. It was too much for Rain, the memories of abuse came back, he threw his bass on the floor and curled into a ball on the couch,
