sml oneshots !! [ reqs closed for a bit ^^ ]

- Thank you so much... for being there for me... - Jody

Cody spoke up, adjusting his glasses. "I mapped out the fastest route to the park with the least amount of human interaction. If we cut through our school and avoid the main intersection, we only have to deal with approximately 17.2 people." ...Seventeen point two? I think in my head before switching my direction to Cody's, "se - seventeen point two... like, the decimal?" I asked - being dumbfounded. "Yeah, one of them is a mime. Technically human! but you never really hear them, so I count it as a decimal". "... okay I guess" I muttered quietly as Cody gave me a glare, I don't know what kind of glare, but I'm pretty sure it was the evil kind of glare. We dodged and ran through the people, we were ONLY slightly clumsy, and had a habit of knocking over people bags or coffees over... Cody apologized at least five times before we made it past the first block. And Joseph? lil bro just started high fiving everyone like he was Justin Bieber!

After around like 20 - 30 - ish minutes or so, there were still so many people! So... so MANY people... I was the only one in the group that kept getting squashed by random strangers, I didn't think Joseph or Cody noticed as I just kept getting smacked by hair and puffy jackets! And the noise was finally starting to eat - actually, no. It was starting to devour me! People chattering, cars honking, the slightly bruises on me felt like they were screaming to be healed... I felt my boy shiver every minute, my breathing get louder. My heart banging in my chest rapidly, I couldn't speak anymore longer, my head was getting all foggy and fuzzy with worries and embarrassment... I couldn't stand anymore longer! Cody and Joseph were far up ahead without me, talking to each other about I have no idea what. I just need them, I need them to help me... I have no clue what's happening right now. I tried my absolute hardest to speak, but my words shattered immediately, my knees all wobbly and my body is all hot and bothered - with a little bit of sweat too. I stumbled, barely managing to stay upright as my knees were just BEGGING to give up right on the spot, my eyes started to tear up. Every single tear dripped down 1 by 1, like it was a literal waterfall.

I raised both of my hands and tightened them hardly around my upper arms, squeezing it with what I could call 'comfort', I seriously couldn't take it anymore. I felt my eyes were about to close and I was going to tumble over, I couldn't do that! Especially with all of these people around... I tried to walk faster - which I thankfully managed to do, without still stumbling a bit, but not fully. The closest to me was Cody, I had no choice but to let my body fall free as I took my hands off my upper arms and had them grip onto his arms, we both slightly tumble onto the side for a bit until Cody properly stood up to see what was happening. My body still tilted just SLIGHTLY, he switched his body direction to me and saw me shivering and tearing up, "Ju - Junior!? What's wrong?!" He asked me before holding my arms strongly. Joseph, hearing Cody's sudden tone, immediately spun around. His boredom talking replaced by wide eyed concern

"Uh dudes, what's this??" Joseph asked worriedly, coming closer to us, "Junior's like - pa - panicking really bad!" Cody answered for me as I continue to breathe heavily and try to stop my tears from running down my face. "What do we do!? do we go and ask someone for help?" Joseph tried to help by thinking of a solution, "n - no,..,,,,..." I mumbled loud enough for only Cody to hear. He nodded before turning back to Joseph, "He said no..." he replied sadly, "then what then? What's even happening with him?" He asked, YET again. There was silence between the 3 of us before Cody let out a realization 'oh', "Joseph, I think he's having a anxiety attack!" He answered - still holding onto me to lend me support. "Anxiety attack? like he's overwhelmed?" "Attaboy!" "Never say that to me EVER again" back and forth they talked.

"I think it's best if we get out of here, and go back home" He suggested as he looked back at me, I instantly nodded. "Alright, let's move", Cody said holding his grip to keep me steady, his voice giving reassurance. "Yo cody, need help?" Joseph glanced up at Cody, "nah it's all good, I got him". He responded back as I started getting worser, I feel so embarrassed having an outburst in public! Cody tried to hold me up as I try my best to do the same. We began walking and the noise dulled as we moved further away from the main roads, the clamor of honking cars and chatter fading into a distant hum. My legs still felt weak, and my breathe still heavy as before.
