Brendon Urie Oneshots

Don't Panic!

Tumblr request - Would you mind doing an imagine where the reader has social anxiety and Brendon sees her walking around town by herself and never sees her talk to anyone, so one day he decides to join her? And then the relationship flourishes from there? You can add smut if you want to, but it would be amazing either way :)

I wandered through the supermarket with my headphones on, I didn't want to talk to anyone, I felt worried just walking round the shops, I kept getting this feeling in my chest whenever I saw someone I'd had the slightest disagreement with. I tended to stick to myself in town, never really speaking to anyone, there was this one guy who lived on my street who always tried to include me, stopping me for conversations but I never stayed for long. I spotted him again listening to music the same as me, he made it so our paths crossed and stopped to speak to me, I took my headphones out and smiled politely.

"Hey! How're you?" He gave me a cute smile, even though I tried to avoid talking to him he was really sweet, always trying to see how I was and make sure I'm ok, he was the only person that ever bothered to make me feel comfortable.

"I'm ok, I can't stay long, got things to do." I lied, I felt awful watching his expression drop a little, his eyes looking down slightly before he smiled again. He nodded and we walked around the supermarket for a bit.

"So why are you always by yourself, you're so sweet I'd have thought you'd always friends around you." He smiled and touched my arm gently, grabbing some food for his shopping cart, he kept picking up snacks I couldn't help but smile.

"I just... prefer to be alone, it's hard sometimes, I don't get on with people very well I find all their opinions very... odd." I shrugged and we kept walking. "How come you live alone? I thought you would have a girlfriend?"

"Ah, no, we broke up last year. It was kinda hard watching her move out. But it was for the best." He looked down for a moment then looked back up and smiled sweetly. "But hey, it's the past right? I'm over it. You got a boyfriend?"

"Umm no, my last relationship ended pretty sour, been single for a couple of years." I shrugged and took a breath.

"No one ever asked you on a date? Because that doesn't make sense to me." His words made me blush a little. "I mean I'd ask you." I went silent, I wasn't sure how to react.

"Are you busy later?" He looked at me smiling, I stopped and thought for a moment, he was asking if I was busy? Why?

"Umm I don't know... why?" I tilted my head a little, he cleared his throat a little.

"Well it's a Saturday and nothing to do so I wondered if you wanted to get a coffee with me?" His tone was sweet, but I was too nervous, it was all topped off by seeing my ex in the aisle across, my chest began to tighten, my head spinning, blood rushing, I felt my breath getting short, I had to get out of here.

"Look I can't sorry... I've got to go." I didn't give him the chance to argue before I darted off I didn't even pay for my shopping. I felt guilty just cutting him off like that but I really didn't feel comfortable and I couldn't have stayed out much longer. I slumped down behind my car, gasping for breath, I held my hands behind my head, unable to breathe or think, my chest so tight I couldn't cope. I heard Brendon's voice through the haze.

"Y/N? Are you ok?" I looked away trying to catch my breath, he crouched down in front of me, not needing anymore of an explanation. "Take a deep breath, with me." He breathed slow, in and out guiding me to follow him, it helped me slightly, I followed his breathing pattern as he held my shoulders gently, one hand sliding against my face. After about 5 minutes my breathing was back to normal and I felt a lot calmer, I didn't know how he had managed to calm me down, no one else ever could. "Better?"
