#i'm out of college and all the knowledge about english tenses and sentence structure has left the building oops

[robinsnest2111]

I'm not a writer at all and I trust my English writing even less than my German writing but my brain gave me a chickles dream so I had to try and write it down. Enjoy?

Pickles still didn't know how he did it but he convinced Charles to let his paperwork be just paperwork for a while and spend some time with him and the other guys in the living room. After a while, something didn't feel right though. His usual robot-like facade had suddenly gained an off edge since the last time Pickles had looked over at his manager.

Just as he was about to call out to him and ask what was up, Charles shot out of his seat and quietly rushed out of the room.

Now concerned, the drummer followed him into the kitchen where he found him sitting at the table, tense as hell, trying to keep his breathing under control but visibly losing that fight.

For a second, Pickles felt like he was frozen to the spot, standing in the doorframe, watching Charles struggle to breathe properly. After shaking himself out of that moment, he approached his boss and asked him what he could do to help.

He finally looked up and Pickles could see the panic in his eyes, the silent plea for help.

"Inhaler", he managed to press out.

"Office?"

Charles gave him a curt nod, "desk."

And with that Pickles was out of the kitchen, racing towards the band manager's office. He threw open the door, his vision zeroing in on the bright inhaler on the otherwise plain desk, grabbed it and made his way back to the kitchen.

...

The others did notice first Charles and then Pickles leaving the living room but didn't pay it much mind, too engrossed in their discussion/friendly bickering. After a while they got hungry and wandered into the kitchen on the hunt for something brutal to snack on and walked in on their drummer quietly talking to Charles, sitting on two of the chairs, facing each other, Pickles' hand gently resting on their manager's shoulder.
