Crowded - Cody Gakpo

Who: Cody Gakpo Prompt: "You're shaking." Notes with request: Reader experiences an anxiety attack and Cody notices. Requested by: anonymous Word count: 508 Warnings: contains descriptions of panic / anxiety attack

Large crowds had never been your forte. In the past, being in a crowd had more than once led to you having a panic attack, but you had learnt to deal with it and nowadays you were mostly fine. You still didn't like large groups of people around you, but at least it didn't send you into a panic anymore. Especially in a stadium, watching football, you were completely unbothered.

With Cody out with a slight injury, you and him attended Liverpool's home match as spectators today. You were perfectly fine and enjoying yourself, until, around the 20th minute of the match, someone bumped into you rather harshly. It was accidental, and the person apologized extensively, but you felt the oh so familiar tightening of your chest immediately.

Your breath hitched, as the sounds of the stadium became distorted, and you felt yourself sink away into the panic attack. You wanted to scream, tell Cody something was wrong, but your ability to speak was completely lost.

You finally managed to reach out a shaking hand and grab a hold of Cody's sleeve. "Oh, you're shaking. Are you cold?" Cody tore his eyes off the match. His face fell the moment he looked at you. He saw the wild panic in your eyes and how you now trembled all over. "Okay, it's alright." He slung his arm protectively around you and started guiding you back inside.

Cody took you into one of the business lounges, in which he knew very few people would be at the moment. He sat you down in a chair, kneeling down in front of you. "Deep breaths, baby." He slowly ran his hands up and down your forearms. "I'm here. You're doing great, it's alright." "W-why?!" You sobbed, shaking. "Why is this happening again?! I thought this wasn't happening to me anymore!" "Sshh," Cody soothed, "don't think about that now. Just deep breaths. You're going to be fine, I promise."

Cody moved to sit in the chair next to you. He slung his arm around you once more and pressed you tightly against him. You buried your face in his chest, your hands curling into fists around his T-shirt.

It was there, safely in Cody's arms and with his softly whispered words of comfort, that you finally calmed down. Cody didn't let go of you, though. He kept you in his arms, softly caressing his thumb over your shoulder and whispering an endless stream of soothing words to make you feel at ease again. You quietly soaked it all up. It made you feel safe and loved, and finally gave you the strength to pull yourself free of the panic attack.

An almighty roar of the Anfield crowd told you Liverpool had scored a goal. "Oh, no!" You gasped, lifting your head off of his chest. "I made you miss a goal." "Doesn't matter." Cody kept his arm around you and made absolutely no attempt to go back outside. "That's not important right now. The only thing that matters to is that you're alright."

Excerpt: Gravenberch didn't know why Slot had called him to his office. So far he hadn't had a single bad experience with being called to the manager's office (minus that time he and Gakpo had made a glitter bomb and detonated it in the middle of the cafeteria).

making Cody's favourite Dutch meal

he's been super emotionally drained after all the criticism he'd been getting online recently, and it absolutely broke your heart seeing him try to put on a brave face for you. and so when he was out for training you prepared his favourite meal from back home. he had been telling you how much he was missing dutch food, making promises that you guys would go over and visit when he had some time off. you were very proud of the final product, taking a picture and sending it to his mum who had sent you the recipe. when cody gets home you call him into the kitchen, smiling proudly at the nice candle-lit layout you had set up. he looks at you perplexed for a second before he notices the food laid out, whispering a no you didn't before pulling you into his arms. you tell him it was no problem, that you wanted to do something nice for him because he'd been having a hard time recently. he pulls back and cups your face, telling you he loves you and pressing a kiss to your lips.

Cody’s Picture

CODY! Our new Dutch baby :)

Tags: @millythegoat, @alissonbecksfan234, @moomin279

Klopp hummed to himself as he stuck another picture into his album. Smiling, he laid the book on his desk so the paste would dry.

One of Klopp’s favorite hobbies was photography. This coincided perfectly with his other favorite hobby, scrapbooking. He would take pictures of the players and staff, then post them in albums. This particular album was titled, “Squad Photos: 2022”.

On this particular page, there was a picture of Alexander-Arnold, Harvey Elliott, and Fabio Carvalho. Each was captioned “Our Squad Babies”. The fourth picture—the new picture Klopp had just added to the book—had just been taken two days ago. In the photo, Klopp was hugging Stefan Bajcetić, who’d just scored his first senior goal.

“Jurgen!” Lijnders popped up from nowhere, peeking around the doorway. “The media crew’s coming soon. They’ve got Cody with them, and they’re doing the signing video.”

Klopp sat up so quickly, his hat nearly fell off. Taking an extra moment to brush back his blonde-gray hair into place, he set his stack of photos down and followed Lijnders out the door.

“I don’t see anything yet,” he said, scanning the staircase. “Exactly where is Cody?”

Lijnders grinned sheepishly, gaze darting from walls to floor. “Outside, still starting the video.”

“Pep!”

Lijnders shrugged. “I can’t help it. I’m as excited as you are!”

Klopp had to admit that was true. He’d been anticipating Cody Gakpo’s arrival ever since it was announced on Boxing Day. The forward was a companion of Van Dijk on the Dutch national team, and it was through Van Dijk that Klopp had begun to get to know Gakpo. Well, not entirely—he had his sources.

The two managers waited for what felt like forever, but there was no sign of Gakpo or the camera crew. They gave up, returning to Klopp’s office to wait.

“The poor boy,” Lijnders sympathized as he poured himself a cup of coffee. “The video crew are probably following him like a shadow. What a way to start life at Kirkby.”

“Rather deceptive,” Klopp agreed. “I’ll bet Cody will be relieved to figure out that the camera staff here are very friendly.”

Lijnders drained his coffee cup, glancing at the album. “New photo in the book?”

Klopp nodded, running a thumb over the pages. “The year’s almost finished, and that means the next three pages will be for the New Year’s Eve Party. But I’m saving one place over here,” he said, jabbing a finger on the right bottom corner of the page.

“Let me guess.” Lijnders was already halfway through his third cup of coffee. “Cody’s first picture with you and I?”

“Well, duh!”

A member of the camera crew entered at that moment, hoisting a heavy black camera over his shoulders. “Cody’s coming right now. The crew wants a shot of you hugging him, boss.”

Klopp jumped from his seat, the album forgotten completely. “You don’t need to ask me twice!”

He leant against the doorjamb, trying to ignore the cameras approaching the office. Klopp was a natural hugger, but when the cameras were on him he found it difficult to act normal.

Finally, Gakpo appeared around the corner. The youngster was already wearing a Liverpool training jacket, a sight for sore eyes. One gaze, and Klopp liked him already. He completely forgot about all the cameras surrounding them as he pulled Gakpo into a warm embrace.

“Nice to meet you,” he said, ruffling Gakpo’s hair.

Gakpo, who’d seemed surprised at Klopp’s sudden affection, settled quite quickly. “I’ve dreamt of this for a while.”

Klopp let go of Gakpo, showing him the way into his office. “And you can keep dreaming here.”

His first of many Kloppo hugs
