Jack stumbled out into the warm air, desperately gasping it into his lungs. He was shaking violently and he knew all too well what was happening. The crowd on the inside was to much he just couldn't handle it. To many people, he thought. He sunk down onto the grass, feeling the familiar tears sting his eyes as he gulped and coughed to breath. He could vaguely hear someone shouting his name, but was too focused on fighting his attack to care. The shouting got nearer, a familiar voice batted him back to reality. The red head man he came to the party with on the first place.  "hey sèan? SÈAN! Are you ok? Come on, it's ok"he wrapped his arms around the younger man, rubbing his back gently "can you tell me your favourite colour?" He Asked quietly.
"G-green" the crying man replied and mark smiled, of course it was his favourite colour. He knew that, but if it would help talk him down again, then he'd ask it.
"Ok, well can you name me 5 green things? Any 5 you can, and keep breathing deeply"

Mark nodded happily, encouraging him "you're doing great! Keep breathing, slowly, deeply. Now, How about... 4 things you can see?" He smiled and jack nodded, weakly smiling back, through tear filled eyes and shaking vision "umm, y-you, t-the p-party, t-this tree a-and the s-sky."
"You're doing so well, just keep breathing for me ok? Don't panic, everything is ok. Can you tell me 3 things you can hear? You're almost there now." Mark asked, smiling at him
"Y-your voice, m-my voice, a-and music" he replied, his breathing was agraducally calming, and he was closer to being ok now. "Almost, keep breathing for me, you're so close! Two things you can feel?"
"Y-your arm, a-and the g-grass" he said, breathing slowing to almost normal, except for small hiccuping-sobs escaping as aftershocks. Mark pulled him close and jack snuggled against him, loving how safe mark's arms made him feel. "One last thing" mark whispered "name one thing that makes you happy."
Jack chuckled quietly. "You"
