INT. LIVING ROOM - DAY
Zayn, Liam, Louis, Niall, and Harry are gathered in the living room, engrossed in a TV show. Zayn, usually the life of the group, has been quieter lately, his smile a little less bright. Unbeknownst to his friends, he recently discovered that his beloved dog had passed away. As they watch TV, Zayn feels a wave of intense emotions wash over him, causing his hands to tremble uncontrollably.
Zayn (whispering to himself): Stay calm, Zayn. Just breathe.
His attempts to calm himself fail, and the panic inside him grows stronger. Realizing he needs a moment alone, Zayn abruptly gets up and hastily makes his way to his room, closing the door behind him. Niall, ever perceptive, notices Zayn's sudden departure and becomes concerned.
Niall (whispering to Louis): Did you see Zayn? Something's not right.
Louis (concerned): Yeah, he seemed off. I wonder what's going on.
Half an hour passes, and Niall's curiosity gets the best of him. Worried about his friend, he quietly stands up and makes his way to Zayn's room. He gently knocks on the door, but there's no response. Niall pushes it open slowly, revealing a heart-wrenching sight.
Zayn is curled up into a tight ball on his bed, trembling and sobbing uncontrollably. Niall's heart aches at the sight, realizing that Zayn is in the midst of a panic attack. He's experienced enough to recognize the signs, having dealt with his own struggles in the past.
Niall (softly): Zee? It's Niall. Are you okay?
Zayn looks up, his tear-stained face filled with confusion and fear.
Zayn (whispering): N-Niall? I'm sorry... I don't know what's happening. I think I'm going crazy. I'm sorry...
Niall's heart breaks for his friend, and he immediately moves toward Zayn, wrapping his arms around him in a comforting embrace.
Niall: Shh, you're okay, Zee. Everything is okay. You're having a panic attack, but you're not going crazy. It's a difficult moment, but I'm here with you.
Niall takes a deep breath, and Zayn instinctively mirrors his friend's breathing pattern. Inhaling and exhaling together, Niall's steady presence provides a sense of grounding for Zayn amidst the chaos of his emotions. Gradually, Zayn's trembling begins to subside, and his sobs turn into sniffles.
Zayn (sniffling): Th-Thank you, Niall. I've never experienced this before.
Niall (softly): It's okay, Zee. Panic attacks can be overwhelming, but you're not alone. We'll get through this together.
Niall continues to hold Zayn, offering support and reassurance. The room fills with a sense of understanding and friendship, as Niall remains by Zayn's side, providing the comfort he needs in this difficult moment.
