Ramin Karimloo imagines and one-shots

Imagine #53 (Ramin Karimloo)

I nervously stood off to the side while Ramin and Sierra Boggess were being interviewed for their new show, The Secret Garden. 

It was the first time the two had been onstage since the 2011 live adaption of The Phantom of the Opera, and fans were ecstatic to see their favorite Phantom and Christine together once again.

I, on the other hand, was not having the best time.

My senses were overwhelmed due to the large commotion around me, and my anxiety was about ready to burst through the roof. 

Keep it together, girl.

I was so lost in my feelings that I didn't even notice Ramin walking towards me, and I jumped when I felt his hand on my arm.

"Avery," he said softly, his brows furrowed together. "Are you okay?"

I shook my head and whispered, "I'm having a bit of panic attack right now."

Ramin wasted no time and stood behind me, wrapping his strong, secure arms around my shaking torso. 

"Shhh," he cooed. "Calm down, love. You're alright."

I stroked his forearms to try and distract myself, but I still didn't feel good, so I shook harder and let out a strained whimper.

"Hey, hey, hey," he repeated while turning me around to face him. "We're almost done here. Just hold on for a bit longer."

I nodded and buried my face into Ramin's chest, wanting to get as close as possible. 

He kissed the top of my head and drew patterns on my back in a soothing manner. 

"My little warrior," he whispered into my hair. "I've never met anyone as strong as you."

I smiled. 

He was always my motivational speaker when I needed self-confidence, and I was thankful for his presence.

Suddenly, I felt someone hug me from behind, and I turned my head to see Sierra there, resting her chin on my shoulder. 

"I think you're in need of a group hug," she said softly.

"Thank you, my dear," I replied with a chuckle. "I appreciate it."

Ramin smirked and wrapped his arms around Sierra, crushing me in between the two of them. 

They were the BEST. FRIENDS. EVER!!
