Enjoy the cute photo of Ziall Horlik.

NIALL POV:
The boys and I are all relaxing on the couch watching a movie, when I notice my hands start shaking. Then, my hearing goes all off and I hear a bunch of ringing sounds. My heart rate picks up. I can't breathe.

What is happening!? Am I dying? I think I'm dying.

I start shaking, I try hiding it from the boys but Liam notices.

He takes a quick glance at me, then a double take.

"Ok, pause the movie."

Someone pauses it quickly.

"What's wrong Ni?" he asks softly.

"I-I don't know! I-I'm sorry... I'm sorry! I don't know what's happening! I think I'm dying."

"Hey, I think he's having a panic attack," Zayn says.

"Is that what this is Niall, do you think?" Liam asks.

I shrug.

"I'm sorry! I-I don't know."

"Lemme try helping him," Zayn says.

Liam nods and Zayn comes next to me.

"Look, Niall, everything is going to be okay, you're having a panic attack, but don't worry, everything will be ok."

It doesn't help very much.

"Ok, Niall, what are five things you can see right now?"

I don't see how this helps, but I label some.

"Uh, th-the TV, the-e c-couch, Li-i-am, y-you, and my hand..?"

"Great, now what are four things you can touch?"

"M-my shirt, th-the couch, y-you again, and da pillow."

"Awesome, you're doing just perfect, bud, now three things you can hear."

"Your v-voice, mine, and th-the wind outside."

"Amazing, and two things you can smell."

"You and I's cologne..?"

"Heh, ok, now last, something you can taste."

"The chocolate cake I ate a little while ago..." I say giggling.

"Are you ok now?" Zayn asks.

I nod.

"S-so what happened? How come I'm not dead?"

"You had a panic attack, bud, sometimes it feels like you might die, but you won't."

"H-how do you know so much about these?"

He pauses a little before speaking.

"I- let's just say I've had a lot myself."

"But wh-what if it happens again?"

"You can always call me," Zayn says.

I smile.

"Thank you Zayn."

He smiles back and we hug each other.
