Deep Dark- Boat Boys (fluff)

TW: panic attack.

Hurt/comfort
Theres a headcannon in this where soulmates can feel eachothers heartbeats

Panic attack is probably pretty inaccurate but its my attempt at writing a kinda normal panic attack bc my panic attacks are weird af.

Enjoy!

Joel's POV*

I was working on building my and Etho's base. I was building a ship, I know building a ship on land is weird but I don't care (I mean I built a boat in the sky so what can I say). I'm gonna call it the 'relation' so it can be the 'relation ship', because it's a ship called the relation.

Etho's in the deep dark right now and I'm worried, I know he's good at that stuff but I still get scared that he'll get hurt.

I finished the part of the boat I was doing and headed inside to work on decorating the interior, when I sharted feeling really anxious.

'Oh no' 

I'm having a panic attack. I dropped to the floor on my knees, my breathing became very rapid and I started crying.

'What if he doesn't make it back?'

'What if we die?'

'I should've gone with him, instead of being a scaredy rat.'

My heart was beating like 75,394 times per second.

*Etho's POV*

I had just left the deep dark and I was mining trying to find some diamonds, when I felt Joel's heart beating really fast. He must be scared or something, I should probably head back.

I started leaving my strip mine but I got kinda lost so it took me longer than expected. Once I got to the surface I headed straight towards (gay towards) our base, it looked like Joel had built a boat, on land, interesting.

Once I got to our base I climbed up the ladder to the deck of the ship. I didn't see Joel on the deck but I heard some sound coming from inside.

'Is that crying?'

I opened the door to the interior, it didn't look finished and there wasn't much lighting but it was still day so there was plenty of light from outside. And then I spotted Joel kneeling on the floor crying. I instantly ran over to him and hugged him.

"Hey, hey it's ok," I said in a comforting voice.

"What happened?" I asked.

"I-I was s-scared that y-you wouldn't make it out," he said, still crying.

"It's ok, I'm here now and I'm just fine," I said.

We hugged on the floor for a while until I picked him up and carried him to our bed. I set him down on the bed and climbed in behind him.

He immediately cuddled up to me and a bit later he fell asleep. I placed a kiss on his forehead.

'He's so cute'

I fell asleep a little later, and had a really strange dream.

In my dream I was a 'spellcheck fairy' my job was to live inside peoples devices and correct their spelling and grammar. (I actually had that dream)

Hope y'all liked it :]
