Anxiety | Harry Styles

Chapter 2: "write your twitter name on this"

A/N:

There's a little twist which may confuse you, but don't worry it was on purpose, just stick with it. I already have up to chapter 9 written and tons happen, the only chapters that feel "filler-y" are the first few, it just feels wrong to just jump right into the action. I felt like setting it up a bit. Thank you for reading! -Hunter

Chapter 2:

We get to the front of the line and I cant. I don't think I can move. But I felt a hand on my back pushing me forward, it was Raegan. I think she could tell I just didn't know what to do. I looked up and saw the 5 boys and I don't know what happened, I was standing right infront of them and I literally shutdown.

" i cant. I need a minute-" running down a random hallway

"HUNTER" I hear Raegan calling behind me

I dont even know where I am, this isn't where I came from but it'll do. The door said "Artist changing room", I knew I shouldn't go in there, but I didn't even care for the stuff I just needed a room with no one in it where I can think for a second and catch my breath. What did you just do? How do I get out of here unnoticed? They probably thought you were a freak. All these thoughts were rushing into my head but I just had to stop and calm down. I lay down on the floor and just close my eyes and stop and think for a second.

*door opens*

"thanks raegan, I just need a second. I think that was one of my biggest panic attacks I've had. there was just too many people" I say with my eyes still closed.

"is that why you left, babe?" says a voice that wasn't Raegans. I dart open my eyes and holy shit Liam Payne is laying on the floor right next to me.

"oh my god. I am so sorry I shouldn't be in here" i say getting up.

"no, it's fine. you sit, I'll get you some water"

I can't even believe this, I'm not even starstruck I'm just embarrassed. I don't even know what to say.

"here you go"

"so what happened are you okay?" he asks.

"oh yeah. i just have anxiety, too many people can have this effect, although it rarely happens" I reply feeling embarrassed.

"well that's no good. feeling better though are we?"

"much" i reply

"good, then how about we go and get that picture?" he says confidently.

I stand up he puts his arm around my shoulder and we walk back down the hallway to the meet and greet room. I could feel all eyes on me as we walked into the room.

"lets get this picture" he says motioning to Raegan to come over

We did as we planned and just did a simple picture with all the boys, I was between Liam and Niall. Even though I didn't really have a choice because Liams arm was still around my shoulder, so I just snaked my arm around this back and same with Niall I don't even know what Raegan was doing because I was too focused on getting out of there and getting out of the sight of all these girls wondering what happened.

"thank you! I love you boys!" raegan admits

"we love you!" louis says

"now you take care of yourself, yeah?" Liam says slightly concerned.

"thank you, seriously thank you. and I will." i say happily to reassure him.

We leave the meet and greet and there are still many eyes on us, I can deal with the eyes but I really hope no one comes up to us. Raegan is so excited as to what just happened, I think she might need an explanation. I think I'll talk to her about it when we get to our seats, they still have a ton of girls to get through so we have some time to sit and talk.
