Sal was having a cookout with his friends and family. He invited some friends you swear you have never seen. You started to feel anxious as your anxiety starts to make you feel nervous. You felt like everyone was staring at you judging you, you heart rate started to get high, you start bouncing your leg and Sal starts to notice. He asks "are you ok?" You shook your head no. He takes your hand and he takes you outside where he was grilling hamburgers he promised to stay out there with you until you calmed down. He puts his arm around you as your breathing calmed down and your heart rate goes down. "You feel better?" Sal asks in a calm and soothing voice. You shook your head yes. "I'm going to bring these burgers inside, I'll be right back," Sal says as he goes inside. Q looks for you and finds you outside, "there you are, why are you not in the house with us" Q asked. He noticed you looking down as he sits down next to you. "You ok?" He asks and again you shook your head no. "I have anxiety, there were people in there I swear I have never seen in my life, I thought people were staring at me, judging me." You explained. "Nobody was judging you hun" Q says, "and if they were looking at you, I'm pretty sure they were thinking wow they are so cute." You smiled. "Wait you think I'm... cute?" You asked him. "Well yeah in a friend way though." He said but he lied he thought you were so cute he would like to go out with you but Sal would not liked that because he is his best friend and you are his sibling, it would be to awkward. "Oh ok" you said to him. You were bummed because you liked him but know it would never work with you being Sal sibling but Q was his best friend. Sal walked out with the hotdogs. "Oh what's up Q?" He asked. "Just out here talking to y/n" Q explains. "Well hamburgers are ready. I'm going to make hotdogs." Sal says as he puts the hotdogs on the grill. You stay outside with Q still a little anxious. "I'm sorry y/n, I knew I invited a little too many people." Sal apologizes. "It's ok I think I feel better" you say as you get up and go inside and sit down.
