One week later

(M/n) has settled into a perfect routine. Wake up, make Severus his coffee, go out for a run, get ready and head to the Great Hall. After that it was his classes and then he would spend the night with Severus by the fire. As of right now (M/n) was walking into the Great Hall writing a poem. Everyone was staring at him waiting to see what he would do to about the pink lady sitting in his seat. But the one with the most worried look was Severus. But he hasn't looked up yet, not until he stopped at his seat.
"What are you doing in my seat?" He asks look at her and then Severus. He likes to be by Severus. He had always more of a feeling person, always looking for any type of touch. He can't hold Severus's hand under the table if they're not next to each other.
"You must mistaken because I'm sitting here in my seat." She says.
"I've been sitting here for two years, I think I know where my seat is." He argues.
"Well now you sit over there by Hagrid and you now teach kids about mythical creatures with him too because I'm now teaching Defenses Against the Dark Arts. Now got eat your breakfast although it looks like you could skip a few." She mumbles the last part put (M/n) and Severus heard it. And they both know about the males weight issue. He looks at the pink lady in shock and the to Severus who has a unreadable expression on. Somewhere during that time (M/n) had dropped his pencil.
"For you information I snack through the day which is healthier that shoving a load of food in your mouth three times a day." He fights back. He acts strong he can feel his breath quicken and frustrated tear brim his eyes. He blinks them away.
"People may say that but it doesn't look like it's working." She says. (M/n) almost feels paralyzed but not paralyzed enough because he could feel his chest tighten and his breathing shorten causing him to panic. He can't have an anxiety attack in front of the whole school. He looks at Severus desperately before dropping his book and running out. Severus stands up grabbing the items (M/n) dropped before running after him.

(M/n) didn't make it far until he collapsed against the wall a couple yards away from the Great Hall doors. (M/n) was very sensitive about his weight. To others he looks like he doesn't need to be, but he was heavier as a kid and he got bullied for it. He is terrified to slip back. It also doesn't help that every time he gets like this he gets frustrated for being so weak. He desperately wished he could hide his emotions just as well as Severus could. Just then feet show up in front of him.
"Please stand my love." Severus says and (M/n) sighed as he felt some of his nerves calm from the soothing voice. (M/n) lifts his arms up so Severus can grab onto them. Severus lifts him up and holds him against him.
"Deep breaths, my love." Snape says rubbing his back as (M/n) sniffs and takes a shaky breath trying to get his chest to loosen up. (M/n) lifts his head and looks into Severus's eyes.
"Thank you." (M/n) whispers. Severus's lips quirk into a small smile as he lifts his hand to gently pat the tears dry on (M/n)'s face. The doors to the Great Hall open and kids start pouring out, heading to class.
"I should go meet Hagrid." (M/n) says sadly as he bends down to pick up his notebook Snape set down to help him up. Severus stops him before he walks off noticing the change and what can come from it.
"If anything gets too overwhelming you come right to me, okay. It's not going to be like this forever." Snape says and (M/n) nods already feeling a hole start to form in his chest. He should be walking away with Severus not in the opposite direction of him. But instead he smiles and nods.
"I'll be okay."
On the walk outside (M/n) thinks about if he is being too clingy, not noticing it before. Does it bother Severus and he's just not saying anything? (M/n) silently, and sadly, decides he should draw back just a little.
