" Don't leave me. " He was screaming, it seemed like he never heard me. Yes, he had panic attack. And his screams were getting louder with every passing second.
" I am not leaving, Nate.. " I held his face in my hands and made him look at me. He was crying, his eyes were moist and red. He looked at me, panic was all over his mind. It looked like he had been through hell.
" I can't breathe, Kara.. I can't. " He spoke through his breathes.
" Shh, calm down and look at me.. Just look at me Nate. " I told him as I made him look at me, his red eyes locked with mine.
" I just want to die right now.. I can't.." His screams were not ready to stop.
I tried say good things into his ears. Like how he had me.. Yes, the only person he had was me.. His girlfriend Serena Adams cheated on him with his best friend Ian Danvers. His mother died on the day he was born. His father is a kind of father no one wishes to have. The fame he had, was vanished because of his breakdown during these days. All he had was me.. Kara Hart.
But saying soothing things in his ears were not helping as his screams were not vanishing. Then I thought, I need to distract him. But distracting him? How? I had no idea.
Without thinking twice, I pressed my lips against his. He started to ease a little as his body was not shaking anymore. His eyes were wide and then he slowly started to kiss me back.. He grabbed my waist and deepened the kiss. And then I realized, his panic attack was gone. He was pass that whole incident, whole panic. And now he was kissing me back.. But I pulled away, and rested my head on his forehead.
