Hmmm maybe he should talk to Kimalia about that, maybe he was best suited for those rather then positions you need to be fast in.
Hearing her question broke him out of his train of thought, smiling softly at her he nodded "They've asked if ye'd come to Christmas because they want te meet ye." He'd never seen them not like any of his friends, and well Amelia was his first girlfriend EVER and they wanted to meet her. They'd asked questions about her but he'd only given the basics wanting her to tell them herself. "They ap..." Something was wrong he was able to sense even before she started hyperventilating. Just the way she'd gone quiet and the look on her face.
"Amelia?" he asked adjusting himself so he could look at her better. When she started to hyperventilate he took the mug gently from her hand and put it next to his. "Amelia what's wrong?" he said his eyes showing worry and concern. "Jus' breathe slowly. Look at me." he added letting go of her hand and putting his hand on her chin gently to turn her head so she'd look at him. He tried to get rid of the worry in his eyes because as long as he was calm he knew that'd calm whatever it was that was making her hyperventilate. Or he hoped it would, maybe it was something that he couldn't ease! He just couldn't figure out what had set it off, was it something he'd said...or done? His parents?
His parents wanted to meet her? Well that was actually probably a good sign and if that was the only thing that Amelia had been worried about it probably would have done a great deal to ease her distress and put her back into a normal, and mostly cognitive mind frame. Unfortunately it wasn't only that, and while Amelia knew that she needed to calm down and that she was worrying him over nothing she couldn't get control of herself.
He was right, that it would be better if she could breathe deeply and slowly, it would help her, but she just couldn't. The irrational side of herself that she tried so hard to suppress because she didn't want people to think that she wasn't normal, well as normal as she'd ever be able to appear anyway, right now that technique just wasn't working. And she wanted to calm down, for Isaac's sake because she knew that if he saw her in an all out panic attack, and not just a minor one like in Flourish and Blotts that he'd probably be scared for her but she couldn't help it. Because she felt like she couldn't breathe.
And as she felt like she couldn't breathe she couldn't tell him what was wrong either. She did however allow him to move her so that she was looking him in the eyes, because he was trying to help, and because she did like him holding her, it was soothing in a way, just not enough to stop her irrational fear. And it was so stupid that she felt like she wanted to cry, because she was scared when she knew she shouldn't be. When she knew that she had nothing to worry about.
