There's so many numbers out there for so many mental & emotional feelings and issues. I know the National America Anxiety hotline is 844-549-4266. Please do this for yourself!

(Y/N)'s POV

I choked on air as my body shook uncontrollably. I don't know what happened. I was fine and today was a good day, but once I retired to my room for the night, thoughts started filling my mind and stressing me out. Soon I started sweating and crying, going into my usual anxiety attacks.

"Le... vi..." I subconsciously whispered the name of my boyfriend. Surely he's still awake...

I slowly stood up from my bed and stumbled down the hall to his office. I placed a hand over my heart that was beating a million miles a minute.

I opened the door and peaked inside, finding Levi at his desk hunched over a tall stack of paperwork. "Levi..." I whispered.

"I'm trying to do work, (Y/N)." He monotonously said.

"I-"

"I don't have time for this, (Y/N)." He said, not seeming to pick up on anything. "Go to Hanji or someone." My chest tightened as even more tears streamed down my face.

"P-Please..." I whispered as I fell onto my knees, gasping for air and shaking. He's gonna leave me, too... He doesn't love me even more... Nobody does... I'm so worthless...

"Hey, (Y/N)!" Levi yelled and I think I heard him come closer. "Hey, stay with me, okay?" He cradled me in his arms. "I'm so sorry." He said with tears in his eyes.

I leaned my head onto his chest, listening to his slightly fast heartbeat. "(Y/N) I need you to breathe." He rubbed my back. "Breathe with me, okay?" I nodded and tried to follow his breathing patterns. "It's okay. You're safe, sweetie. I love you so much." He wiped my tears away and peppered my face in kisses.

"I-I..."

"Shhh, it's okay." He held me close to him. "I'm here. There's nothing to worry about."

It... It's all gonna be okay... I am loved and cared for... Everything will work out in the end... it always does...

I thought reassurance to myself as I slowly but surely calmed down and came back to reality. "What happened, sweetheart?" Levi asked.

"I don't know..." I honestly said.

"That's okay." He picked me up and went back to sit in his chair. I sat on his lap and wrapped my arms around his neck. "Go ahead and go to sleep while I finish this. Then we can cuddle."

"Sounds good." I smiled and closed my eyes, quickly falling into dreamland.
