Panic attack

3rd person

-P Kunikida was just doing his work as usual when the sound of heavy breathing began to invade his peace. He looked over his shoulder to see his co-worker, Ranpo, curled up in a ball on his desk chair, his face resting in his arms.

Kunikida approached him, attempting to place his hand on Ranpo's shoulder gently, only to have the man recoil back in fear.
"Yosano!" Kunikida called to the doctor.
"Need something?" she responded, walking over.
"Somethings wrong with Ranpo!" he told her, concern edging his voice.

Yosano instantly realised what was going on but had absolutely no idea what to do.
"Panic attack..." Yosano whispered, her gaze watery with worry for her friend. "Where's the president?" She asked looking down at the shaking man in front of her.
"He's out on a mission, why?" Junichiro replied, his attention still on his phone.
"Something wrong?" Dazai asked coming round the corner.

-S "Uh- Ranpo-" Kunikida stammered, pointing a finger at the eldest.
"Shoot!" Dazai shouted and started attempting to calm down Ranpo.

Junichiro's attention focused onto Dazai, and, realising the situation, started leading Kenji and Kyoka out of the room.
"Wait what's happening?" Kenji asked curiously.
"Nothing! Nothing!" Junichiro said, trying to maintain his composure.
"Is he sick or hurt? My cows get sick a lot I know how to-"
"Wait, is he having a pani-" Kyoka started to say, but was interrupted by Junichiro saying that Ranpo was just slightly ill. Despite knowing about the situation, Kyoka remained quiet for Kenji's sake.

Dazai and Yosano rubbed Ranpo's back encouragingly while Kunikida was on the phone with Fukuzawa.
"Look, something's wrong with Ranpo and you're the only one who can comfort him!" Kunikida screamed down the phone.

Suddenly, Atsushi walked into the room and was taken aback by the pure chaos and worry that filled the room.
"Atsushi, go get Ranpo a glass of water!" Dazai ordered.
"What's happening?!" Atsushi asked, worried.
"Ranpo's having a panic attack!" Dazai shouted.
Atsushi nodded obediently and left.

Dazai and Yosano continued to try and calm down Ranpo. Kunikida was sat down at his desk, biting his nails while his leg was shaking.
"Kunikida, stay calm. If you loose it then we're doomed." Dazai said, calmly.
"You're right." Kunikida took a deep breath before taking off his jacket and wrapping it around Ranpo's shoulders. He wasn't sure what else to do, but he hoped that it helped in some way.

Fukuzawa sprinted into the room and hugged Ranpo, shoving Dazai, Yosano and Kunkida out of the way.
"It's okay..." Fukuzawa said. Ranpo buried his face into Fukuzawa's shirt, clinging to it as he cried.

Atsushi arrived back with a glass of water in hand. He let out a sigh of relief when he saw Fukuzawa with Ranpo and placed the glass of water on the table.

"Can you all leave us alone for a while?" Fukuzawa asked. Everyone nodded in agreement and left, leaving Ranpo and Fukuzawa alone.

"Papa..." Ranpo whimpered.
"It's alright, I'm here." Fukuzawa said.
Ranpo sobbed for a few more minutes before finally coming to his senses and realising the situation.

Kunikida and the others sat downstairs at the coffee shop, waiting impatiently for any words about how Ranpo was doing. Kunikida stared down at his coffee, watching as the liquid swirled around in the cup.
"Aren't you gonna drink that?" Dazai said, indicating the cup in front of Kunikida.
"Not thirsty." Kunikida said bluntly.
"Oh I get it! You're worried about Ranpo! He'll be fine!" Dazai said in his normal goofy tone.
Kunikida stared down in silence.

Then, as if on cue, Fukuzawa walked in, Ranpo clinging to him. Ranpo was staring at his feet as he walked, embarrassed after crying in front of everyone.
"H-here's your jacket." Ranpo said quietly, handing the jacket back to Kunikida. Kunikida looked at the jacket, then back up at Ranpo, before squeezing Ranpo tightly in his arms.

A/N Sushi stole my phone so that is why most of this chapter was written by him. The whole 'Papa' thing we found cute and just kept it and finally sorry if any of the characters acted out of character at any point :D
