Whispering Winds

chapter 8

-Aether's pov(warning poorly written panic attack or at least mentions of one -)-

I had my back facing his i so badly wanted to cuddle him and kiss him. i didn't understand why i felt so strongly about him. despite being a brat at times he can be kind of cute. I took a deep shaky deep breath before i turned to face him. i almost touched his shoulder to get his attention when he started to sit up which caused me to quickly pull my hand back as he sat up.

"are you okay?" I was a little worried. he grabbed his phone and opened his camera looking at his face.

  "yeah i thought i saw something.."He sounded sort of panicked. His breathing was only getting heavier as it seemed like he had stressed himself out badly and was going to have a panic attack. 

"Are you okay do you want me to comfort you?"*i asked in a soft tone before touching him at all. He shook his head so i sat there while he sat with his knee's to his chest softly crying i wondered what could have caused this. I pass him a stuffed Fox that i had on my bed to him and he shakily took it crying quietly still but calming down abit.

_back to scaramouche pov_

  I was now calm but embarrassed about my panic attack in front of Aether. It ALL happened because i thought I saw a crack forming on my cheek. when i saw my reflection in glass on his bedside table. i felt like an idiot and i knew i couldnt tell aether the truth about my panic attack.

   "Thanks for letting me calm myself down "My voice as shaky as i gave him the stuffed fox back. i shakily wipe my tears away and Aether nods in response.

   "if you ever wanna talk about it we can but i wont force you too "Aether softly smiled at me this made my heart melt.

     "Thanks Aether "was all i could mumble out before laying down again only facing him so i didn't do that again. Aether laid on his back looking at the ceiling as i closed my eyes. it didnt take long for me to drift off to sleep.

The next morning, I slowly woke up but kept my eyes closed as i rolled over when i opened my eyes i was face to face with Aether's sleeping face. This caused me to jump up in shock with a red face. i Calmed down quickly and stared at his sleeping face he was handsome but i decided to not be creepy and to stop staring.
