Trigger warning?

The tiles felt cold.

His panic attack started as soon as he got home. He didn't know why he was perfectly fine and then like a truck that was going full speed his anxiety kicked in. He gasped as it happened and stumbled up the stairs.

His panic attacks were difficult to say the least. His anxiety meds and therapy (that Jeremy had forced him to get) could only go so far. His meds only stopped it like a quarter of the time. The therapist hardly helped all that much talking about what makes him anxious just leads to more anxiety.

The panic attacks gripped him like the claws of a bear and shredded him up with no remorse. His attacks led him down a spiral of depression and worsened anxiety. He could barely manage to move or breath and he tried the breathing exercises and they helped with most. However like the one he was having right now it was futile. He would just sit down on the tile and wait for it to pass and doing everything he could to help himself out.

He was shaking uncontrollably and he tried to take out his phone and call Jeremy. Jeremy was always the one could calm him down. Just as he was about to hit the call button he remembered that his lanky friend was on a date with Christine. For some reason that caused him to worsen.

He didn't turn off his phone.

Just then his body started moving on its own to grab the medication. Maybe that could help. He grabbed it and shakingly opened. How he was able to do that he didn't know. That's when the thoughts of how worthless he was started ringing in the young boys mind. He stared at the pills while these thoughts were happening.

Worthless

No one cares

Do it. Whose going to attend your funeral.

Definitely not your parents. They aren't around 95% of the time.

He couldn't control it. He couldn't control the pills spilling on his hand and he certainly couldn't control how he swallowed them dry. When he realized what he did he couldn't bring himself to reverse it. Hell he smiled.

He wasn't prepared for this. He decided to call Jeremy and say goodbye. Even if it was on voice mail that's all he needed to say what he needed. Tears streamed down his face as he called Jeremy.

He wasn't expecting an answer.

"Michael?" Jeremy seemed to know something was wrong, "Are you okay? What happened?"

"Nothing," Michael hiccups, "dude I just want you to know that despite all that shit that's happened with the squip you're still my nest friend. I love you more than you could ever know. Maybe more than a friend. I don't know dude. Shit I took so much."

"Michael are you crying?" Jeremy's voice said, "And took so much of what?"

"My pills." Michael bluntly stated, "that's not the point though. Listen you are my best friend and I couldn't believe everything we have been through. Shit I have a headache. Okay dude be sure to know that you are the most important thing to me. I would never trade you for anyone. Alright Player 2?"

"Michael I'm going to call the ambulance." Jeremy said as he hung up. Michael lazily smiled he always knew his friend would be there.

He sat on the cold floor a little longer when he heard the sirens.
...
When Michael awoke he was in a hospital bed with a pounding headache. He groaned and looked around. He saw Jeremy sitting at his bedside.

"Hey Jerbear," Michael groggily stated.

Jeremy's head snapped up and it was evident he had been crying. He didn't say anything as he wrapped his arms around Michael in a warm embrace.

The tile floor was cold.
But his embrace was warm.

Sorry?
I don't know that was intended to be a lot sadder. I just couldn't do it I love these boys to much.

Anyway, I'm about to do a little bit of self promo because why not? ALSO THIS IS IMPORTANT BECAUSE YOU WONDERFUL PEOPLE GET TO DO SOMETHING!!!

First off I have a Klance oneshot book (which if you like Voltron and not have yet read it please do😂) but I am taking requests on that book as sort of a gratitude. No one as commented anything yet lets hope someone will. Anyway I decided why not do it with this book too. So comment any story requests because I need ideas and you get a shout out.
I only really know 3 musicals soooo.
-Heathers
-Be More Chill
-Dear Evan Hansen
I'm always looking for more musicals so if you want to request something other than what's in that list I will research everything I can into it😊.

Second I have an original book coming out soon that I hope you guys wouldn't mind checking out. Even if it's for one chapter and it's not your thing. I've worked hard on it so it's means a lot.

Finally, I need some help with book covers. I'm horrible at creating them so help if you can and Private message me or something with that cover. I'm always looking for help with that stuff.

I've talked enough.

Until Next Time🐬🐼

PS Michael in the Bathroom came on while writing this and I let out a small yelp😂
