Carrington jolts awake in the middle of the night, gasping for air as a wave of panic and anxiety washes over him. His chest feels tight, his heart racing in his chest. He feels a sense of nausea in the pit of his stomach, and he knows that he's having a panic attack.

He sits up in bed, clutching his chest as he tries to take deep breaths. But no matter how hard he tries, he can't seem to get enough air into his lungs. The room starts to spin around him, and he feels like he's going to pass out.

Jake was coming home late tonight and he is locking the front door downstairs. As he is walking up stairs, he called out. "I'm home!"

Carrington heard Jake's voice calling out from downstairs, but he couldn't respond. His throat felt tight and his body was trembling with fear. He couldn't speak, couldn't move, as the panic attack continued to grip him tightly.

"babe?" Jake called out as he is walking up the steps. "Babe?" He called again as he is walking down the hallway. He then reaches Carrington's room and opened the door.

Jake opened the door to find Carrington sitting on the bed, his eyes wide with panic. He could see the trembling in his body, the way he was clutching his chest.

"Carrington?" Jake said softly, immediately sensing that something was wrong. He rushed over to the bed, kneeling in front of him and placing a hand on his knee.

Carrington's eyes met Jake's, and he let out a shaky breath. Seeing Jake's face brought a small sense of relief, but the panic attack still had a tight grip on him.

"I...I can't breathe..." he managed to gasp out, his voice trembling.

Jake's eyes widen. "What do you mean? Hey," as he grabbed onto Carrington's hands. "What's going on?"

Carrington tried to speak again, but the words got stuck in his throat. He felt like he was drowning, like he couldn't get enough oxygen into his lungs.

He squeezed Jake's hands tightly, his eyes filled with fear and desperation. He tried to convey what was happening through his expression, hoping that Jake would understand.

But Jake just couldn't pinpoint it and he is now feeling anxious for Carrington's health and well being. "Carrington..? Hey, you're okay.."

Carrington tried to focus on Jake's voice, but the sound was muffled and distant in his ears. He felt like he was underwater, the world around him spinning out of control.

He shook his head, tears streaming down his face as he tried to speak again. "I...I can't...breathe," he repeated, his voice cracking. "I feel like...I'm going to pass out..."

"What?" Jake's eyes widen. He gets up and hugged Carrington's head. Hoping he can help in someway.

Carrington buried his face in Jake's chest, his body trembling as he clung to him tightly. He wrapped his arms around his waist, holding onto him as if he were a lifeline.

He took deep, shuddering breaths, trying to match Jake's rhythm. The familiar scent of his cologne filled his nostrils, and he found a small amount of comfort in it.

That's when Jake realized that Carrington was having a panic attack. "...Oh." he said, realizing as he is rubbing Carrington's back before he shakes out of his thoughts and starts to comfort Carrington. "Hey, you're okay. Its okay. Deep breaths, 1,2,3,4 hold,.. okay, 1,2,3,4. That's right."
