Demi Lovato Imagines Book Two (girlxgirl)

You have a panic attack

What started as a simple walk in the park was now your worst nightmare. You and Demi were being mobbed by paparazzi and you were noticeably terrified. Your hands were shaking, your heart racing, your skin becoming sticky with sweat- you knew what was happening. You could feel the tightness beginning in your lungs and you guys couldn't just hide from them.

You squeezed Demi's hand, the one that was currently intertwined with her left one. She looked at you and instantly pulled you in to her side, both of her arms wrapping around you as you buried your face in her neck. She knew she had to something and she saw a bench up ahead, walking with you in her arms as gently but as quickly as possible. She sat down next to you and rubbed your back, looking to see the paparazzi inching closer again, shouting both  your names and begging for a few photos of 'the happy couple'. She stood up for a second, rubbing your arm softly as she nodded her head, knowing what she had to do. "Hey! Can you guys back away? My girlfriend is absolutely terrified of you guys and she's suffering from a damn panic attack if you can't tell! Stop being so concerned about getting photos, please just back up! Give us some space!" The paparazzi backed away slowly, sneaking a couple more photos before deciding to just back off completely.

Demi sat back down next to you and pulled you in to her embrace. "Okay Princess, it's alright. I'm here baby girl. Just take some deep breaths, nice and slow. They backed up babe, you're alright now. Just close your eyes and focus on me, focus on your breathing" you did as she said and felt a little better as you felt like air was actually getting back in your lungs again. Your heart wasn't racing anymore and Demi's touch as she rubbed your back, making sure to dig her nails in just enough to make your skin tingle the way you liked, was calming. You two sat there like that for a few minutes before you kissed her shoulder that wasn't really covered due to the summer heat and sunshine, a tank top on her shoulders that you could quickly maneuver down her arm if you wanted to. She smiled and grabbed your hand, pulling you up as you two walked home together arm in arm, for the first time in years of being together you weren't followed by tons of cameras, the big men staying at a distance as Demi shot them dagger eyes and they reflected on her words a bit. You weren't sure how long that would last but you were grateful that they were being somewhat respectful for now and even more so, that Demi was by your side to help you through panic attacks and anxiety.
