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.

Ok at least she was looking at him now. Maybe it was about Christmas, and the thoughts of maybe going to see his parents. Was that what was bothering her? If so that settled it, they would stay in for the holidays, and he'd make it a Christmas she wouldn't forget! "How about I tell ye about the trip I took in Brazil." he said softly trying to keep his words calm and gentle.

Maybe just talking would calm her, he didn't know. But he wanted to stay calm, though she was hyperventilating because the more nervous he was the worse she'd get! "We went through the rain forests and got te see lots of animals and creatures ye wouldn't normally see otherwise. Me favorites were the birds. Do ye like birds?" he asked keeping his eyes on hers. "The birds were beautiful, tons of colors, and even some we thought were extinct like the Nundu."

Calm stay calm. He could see she was having problems breathing and that worried him a lot. Trying to adjust them so she was sitting more upright he went on "My favorite had te be the toucan though, the beak was absolutely huge!" Stroking her cheek with his thumb, his eyes didn't leave hers, and they softened even more.
