social anxiety

This is going to be mostly based on my personal experiences.
This story is about the event in Paris.

*No one's pov:*

Dream and george were in Paris at the moment staying at a hotel.
It was time to leave the hotel. The brunet was getting ready to go, but was interrupted by the blond, "George... I'm afraid I won't be able to come with you at the event..".
The oldet turned to look at him with a confused expression "what? Why?", the younger said with an expression full of sorrowness "unfortunatly something came up at the last moment, and I seriously can't back down....I'm sorry".
George seeing the sadness in his eyes said "there's no need to apologize, it's ok I'll go without you"; dream then said full of worry "you sure; what about your anxiety? Will you be able to keep it together?".
The brunet answered, trying to sound as resurring as possible "yes, no need to worry, now I really have to go I'm gonna be late". "Ok then, I'll see you later"; the brunet turned to look at him and gave him a sweet smile before leaving.

*Dream's pov:*(after george left)

In his mind 'george said he'll be okay, though I'm worried, it's not like I don't trust what he said, I'm just afraid it might end up like last time. I had to physically drag him all the way to the my car and quickly get to our hotel. His anxiety was so strong he could barely breath, think straight nor move his muscles the way he wanted to. I remember how hard it had been to calm him down, which really pained me'.

After that he left the hotel room and went to go get it done with the sudden emergensy.

*George's pov:* (at the event 'sorry I don't remember the name')

Arrived at my destinastion and paid my Uber. I got inside and I was immediatly greeted by sapnap, karl and some of the others.
At the beginning everything seemed to be going pretty well, his anxiety wasn't really bothering him that much, it was quige bearable.
George was able to make it for most of the challenges: his stream; the building of the little cart for the race; ecc..

In the last challenges his anxiety started to grow rapidly, his insecurities weren't surelly helping.
He quickly started to hyperventilate and shake, since he had the chance he ran to karl and said with a shaky voice "I-I'm sorry... I really n-need to l-leave", karl knew about the brits anxiety problems and didn't question his choice, and just nobbed, to make him understand that he was going to inform the others.

George ran all the way outside barelly able to make it. Even though there was berely anyone around he didn't seem to be able to calm down, the thought of so many people watching his every single move and his insecurities were soffoccating him, he just couldn't take it, he had to get back to his hotel room, he needed to see dream, that would definatly calm him down.
At first he thought about colling an Uber, but staying in a small space with a complete stranger was probably going to make it even worse so he decided to call dream instead, since he was probably already back at the hotel.

*Dream's pov:*

Right after dream got back at the hotel he received a call from george, which made him extremelly comcerned.
He quickly picked the call up and heard george say "D-Dream...", this made the blond even more worried "George is everything alright? Do you need anything?" The brunet slowly answered "Y-yeah, could y-you come pick-k me up, p-please?.." (sorry for the stuttering, but as said before it's based on personal experiences).
The younger immediatly answered "sure, I'll be there in no time."
Dream didn't ask anything else, he knew how hard it was for george to speak at the moment.

*10 minutes later*

The blond got there as soon as possible, and when he was the state the brunet was in his heart broke: he had glossy eyes, he was hyperventilating and shaking.
He got off the car and helped him get in it.

*George's pov:*

When they got to the hotel george felt to weak to walk almost falling over when trying to stand up, his anxiety was playing horrible triscks.
The brunet looked up at dream who said full of concern "do you want me to pick you up?", the brunet just simply noded.
He felt dream's strong arms snake under him and lift him up. The older relaxed in his arms.

*Dream's pov:*

He got to his and george's room, he then gently placed the smaller down on the bed, who then sat up straight.
Dream sat beside him on the bed and looked at him in his eyes, the brunet wasn't even able to maitane eye contact not even with dream, this made the blond worry even more about george's state.
He quinckly embraced the brunet in a tight hug, pressing the smallers face in his chest.
Dream started to whisper to him sweet nothings to the other who started to calm down a bit, though he could still hear him sobbing.
The blond made him lie down with him, spooning him, holding him tight to reasure him that everything was alright.
The older slowly started to calm down, and soonly the younger started to hear soft snores coming from brunet in his arms.
Dream soon fell asleep too, hoping that George will feel better the next day.

The end
