Agoraphobia

(Soulmate AU where your soulmate's first sentence to you is written on your wrist)

Agoraphobia-
The fear of large crowds or crowded places that could lead to embarrassment and/or getting lost.

Luckily, Logan did not have this fear. Actually, he didn't have any particular fears that would stop him from doing daily tasks, which was fortunate for him.
 
Every Friday night on the way home from work, he would take the same eight 'o' clock pm train back to his town. Every Friday night, without fail. He would never miss the train, he would never get distracted; he was always there on time for the train at exactly eight 'o' clock.
He looked at the first words on his wrist, tracing his thumb over the small sentence as he waited on the platform for his train. 'Yes, I think I'm alright...thank you.'  it said. Logan had never heard someone say these first words to him...yet.

Agoraphobia- The fear of large crowds or crowded places that could lead to embarrassment and/or getting lost.

Unfortunately, Patton did  have this fear. He was usually a bright and cheerful person always looking to make friends but... He hated being in large crowds, the feeling of millions and millions of people bumping into him and knocking him onto the floor making him drop his stuff, leading him to feel embarrassed about it and try to grab his stuff meaning while he got strange looks. He didn't enjoy it much.

Patton had just started taking the eight 'o' clock pm train to where new place was. Patton runs a cafe in Maplewood and would close it at 6:30 so he could get to the train station at 7:40, ten minutes before the train arrived. He was sometimes late but normal wasn't.

Patton arrived at the station and gulped, seeing a big crowd. Normally he would just wait for the people to aboard and climb on after but he then felt people then run into him, forcing him into the crowd making him gulp, he then looked down at his wrist, feeling panic start to bubble up in his stomach as he read his soul mate's first sentence to him, which said 'Hey are you okay, let me just get you out of here.' He then whimpered as he felt people's stomachs and backs against him making him tear up. He so hoped his soulmate was here today to save him.

Logan stood there, rolling on his heels a bit back and forth. He looked down at his watch, which read 7:55. Five minutes until the train came in. Logan sighed a bit as he adjusted his tie and glasses.

"Watch it, will you?"
"Excuse me!"
"Sorry!"
"Watch where you're going!"

Although some people didn't pay much attention whenever Patton would accidentally bump into them, some of them would snap back, in too much of a hurry to stop and see that Patton was getting more and more anxious.

Patton kept mumbling sorry until he simply couldn't handle how much contact and anxiety he got, making him start to sob quietly clearly scared. People started to scoff and roll their eyes as more people pushed into Patton who sobbed even more, not able to handle it very much anymore he then lightly got bumped into Logan still sobbing, not noticing he had since there hot tears streaming down his face, his cheeks bright red as he was pushed around into more people.

"What a weirdo..."
"Freak..."
"Crybaby..."

Patton's sobs became worse as he was pushed around, his anxiety making the people's comment more exaggerated and hurtful, now terrified at this point.

As Logan felt someone bump into his shoulder, he looked back, seeing that there was someone that he had never seen before crying and looking like he was going to fall over as more people pushed past him harshly. Logan heard the sound of the train pull up to the station and he looked at the train and then back at the stranger. It looked like that person really needed help. 

Logan forgot about the train, slipping past all the people that were walking the other way onto the train until he reached the stranger, picking up their glasses. 

"Hey, are you okay?" Logan asked, seeing that the stranger was looking up at him with slightly wide eyes as he said this. Logan looked back at the train as he heard it start again, only to see it make it's way through the station again. He sighed, knowing that the next train didn't come for a few hours before Logan placed the glasses over the young man's forehead and took his hand. "Here, let me just get you out of here..." He said, carefully guiding the stranger out of the busy crowds of people and onto a bench, adjusting the person's crooked glasses. "Are you alright?"

Patton stared at him with wide eyes as he felt his wrist burn making his tears stop, telling him that this man was his soulmate. Patton then took a deep breath before mumbling quietly. "Yes, I think I'm alright..." Patton the paused before hugging Logan, then whispering quietly, clearly happy. "Thank you..." Patton then sniffled and looked up at Logan, hoping that Logan would accept him as his soulmate as much as Patton did, finally happy he had someone who would protect him.

Logan's own eyes widened a little as he looked at the words on his wrist again, checking if they were exactly like what this person had just said. He smiled, hugging Patton back gently as he felt himself blush. He had never really thought about what would happen when he would find his soulmate...but here he was, being hugged by his soulmate tightly. 

"...I'm Logan." He introduced himself quietly, with a small smile.

Patton giggled before replying softly. "I'm Patton..." He then wiped his eyes and spoke quietly, already knowing the answer.

"So...You're my soulmate...?"
