Jackie just tried to hug him.

Jackie has her arms around his arms but it's more like his torso because he's taller than her.

He wants to adjust his glasses, just to have something to distract him from the fact that she's prodding at his bruises.

His bruised torso is aching terribly too.

He wants to leave now.

But that would make Jackie feel bad.

Leo's breath started to speed up.

He's sure that Jackie can hear it.

It's terrible.

It feels like someone is standing on his chest.

Why is this happening right now?

What is with the panic attacks in the awkward moments.

Leo's eyes felt watery.

Oh heck no.

Not right now.

Leo felt light headed as his breath was coming in strangled gasps now.

Jackie wasn't pressing on his bruises anymore.

To think about it, she wasn't even hugging him anymore.

Leo opened his eyes.

When had he closed his eyes?

He saw Jackie looking at him with worry in her eyes.

Jackie was talking to him but he felt like she was in the water.

Or was he in the water?

He doesn't know.

He knows she sounds far away though.

Leo opened his eyes again.

Seriously, why was he closing them?

Jackie looked like she was trying to tell him something.

Leo wasn't the best at reading lips but she was probably saying something along the lines of either, breathe, or preeth?

Breathe was more likely.

Well what does he have to lose.

Only more breath apparently.

Leo's vision was dimming a bit.

Jackie was in front of him and was trying to coach him through the process.

Leo wanted to go to sleep for a sec.

Yup.

Never mind, not happening.

Breathe.

Breathe.

Open the eyes.

Yup she's still there.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh.

Okay breathe.

Breathe.

Jackie is holding a pill in front of his face.

And some water.

Leo didn't question it.

Swallow.

Sip.

Calm.

Calm?

Open the eyes again.

Blink.

Breathe.

The weight on his chest left.

It's fine.

It's all okay.

Haha all is NOT okay Leo my boy

Btw this is formatted weird bc I'm weird and these are more like his thoughts and stuff- any problem with that? No? Good! Because it's fun to write this way and it provides insight!

My mom had a panic attack in the middle of a store trip and she took a pill when we were in the car and it is supposed to help with those things.

My mom said the attack felt like there was something on her chest so I'm just going off of that :)
