You are a singer too.
Stepping onto the red card for the Grammys. The first thing you noticed was the voices of paparazzi saying various names of celebrities and directions.
But it was one voice that was calling your girl friends name that caught your attention.
"Billie! Billie! Over here to the right!"
"Billie! Finneas! Over here!"
"Billie!"
Heading over to the direction you heard the voices.You can also hear the paparazzi noticing you and calling your name as well.
Ignoring them you headed straight to Billie and Finneas. Once you reached them, you placed your hand on Billie's shoulder startling her a bit.
"Hi baby" you whispers in her ear.
"Hi my love.." she said a little shakily
"Are you okay baby?.." you questioned, furring your eyebrows deeply.
"Yes...?.. well no. I just... feel anxious." She said breathlessly
" hey and that's okay nerves are normal. But how about this? Let's go to the restroom together so you can calm down okay baby?" You questioned, taking her hand in yours.
"Okay." She said shakily once again.
Walking away from the red carpet just in the side of you, you could hear Billie hyperventilating and her breaths becoming. shallow.
Speeding up your pace. Your gripped her hand tighter for some comfort. Finally reaching the restroom you pushed open the door and locked it behind you. Not caring that it wasn't a single restroom.
"Hey mama" you cooed "Its okay"
You noticed that she still wasn't all the way calmed down. And still currently hyperventilating and still struggling.
"I..I cant breathe." She struggles to say.
"Okay, okay baby. Tell me 3 things you can smell."
"T-the your mint, the smell of your p-perfume, and the s-smelly toilet" she stated with a scrunched up face at the end.
"That's right baby!" You chucked a bit. "Now how about 3 things you can feel?"
"Y-your hands o-on my cheeks, m-my necklaces, and the counter."
"Good job mama!" You cooed. "Now can you blow on me baby?"
"O-okay." She stated before she started blowing on your face breathlessly.
"There you go baby. Keep going." You said.
"I-it's not working!" She cried out.
"Okay deep breaths baby." You said as you put her hands on your chest so she can feel you taking breaths with her.
"Innnn hold it.... And outtt. There you go." You said proud of her.
"I got this..." she said right above a whisper.
"Yes mama! You got this. Now give me a hug" you stated as you wrapped your arms around her.
Nestling her head in your chest she took more deep breaths into you. She rested her head on your chest feeling safe and relaxed now.
"What's got you so worked up baby?" You questioned, quite confused.
"I..I just felt soo overwhelmed by the paparazzi and all of the flashes plus all of the yelling, I haven't done this in so long. It was so scary and know I just feel embarrassed because I should be used to this by now." She said into my neck sounding shameful.
" It's okay.. you probably just forgot about how it felt and that's perfectly fine baby.. and guess what? Everyone gets overwhelmed by something." You said, rubbing her back in a comfort way. Knowing that she needs it.
"I know.. I just.. I don't know." She said quietly.
"That's fine baby. But don't feel embarrassed my love... nerves rare natural." I cooed at her.
"Now look in the mirror." You said as you turned her around.
" what for" she said as she tilted her head to the side cutely.
"Repeat after me." You stated.
"I got this." You said as you looked at her thru the mirror.
"I got this."
"I shouldn't be embarrassed."
" I..I shouldn't be embarrassed."
" Now." You said as you turned her back around. " Where gonna go back out there're and where gonna kill it. Okay?"
"Okay." She said with a big smile.
Grabbing her hand, you opened her the door with your other hand and led her thru it first and you after.
"Oh everyone is going to go sit down now." She said as she looked around.
"Okay then let's go." You said as she pulled your hand towards the area with all of the circle tables.
You guys have been sat down now for a couple of minutes. Watching Fantasia preform you suddenly felt a hand on your shoulder.
Looking back you saw Billie leaning up to whisper something in your ear.
"Thank you." Billie said as she looked at you with a smile.
"For what?" You chucked confusedly
"For ... you know? Helping me earlier." She said.
"You're welcome baby.. buts it's what im supposed to do." You laughed.
"I know but.. still thank you." She said and grabbed your hand and gave it a squeeze.
"Of course my love." You said a pressed a kiss against her head.
