Alex has always been under a lot of stress her whole life and she has dealt with it in unhealthy ways and bottled it down so she can get the best grades until she met y/n her best friend now girlfriend of almost two years and friend of five. She has gotten better at letting it all out and you helping her and calming her down and you're the only one who can stop the attacks and help. You were heading to Alex's parents house to pick her up for a date at seven to ask her to move in with you (you've both just finished college at Caltech) so you were finishing the last touches to make it great, while Alex is studying for her exam and is stressing out. It's around three and Alex is in her date outfit cause she knows she will forget if she doesn't change, she's walking around the house reading the textbook and then reaching the kitchen where her whole family is.
H- wow Alex since when did you dress like that and not a complete dork
Alex ignores them as she is studying too hard
G- yeh you look amazing, are you going on a date
L- yeah are you?
C- wait do you have a boyfriend?
H- since when did you have one of those?
They keep bombarding Alex with questions and she's not holding it together anymore and the extra questions from her family are stressing her out more, until she starts to not being able to breath and hyperventilating
A- mom
She barely chokes that out while dropping the large textbook and collapsing on the ground sitting on the floor, her family rushes up and goes over to her
P- what's happening
Alex can't answer
C- I think she's having a panic attack
L- what should we do
H- I don't know I've never seen her have one
A- c-call y/n
All - who's y/n?
A- j-just... call her! Emergency...con—contact!
Haley gets Alex's phone and calls y/n
On the phone
U- hey gorgeous what's up? Ready for our date already
You joke and laugh as you have no clue it's her sister who called you and that your girlfriend is having a panic attack
H- umm... it's her sister Haley
U- oh.. hi? What's up what happened with Alex

U- ok ok I'm on my way I need to see you face to face but keep on the phone, let's try and distract you yeh? So...do you remember when we were watching the first episode of Dickinson and you saw Emily and sue kiss you were so shocked and confused as you always thought the real Emily Dickinson died lonely without any husband or children
