Thomas Sanders Sides One-shots

What Do You Want From Me

I'd suggest listening to the song linked above while reading this. It's from the album Division Bell which is my favourite album by Pink Floyd and all the songs lead into one another so I'd recommend listening to the whole thing if you had the chance.

Logan sighed as he tried to finish writing but couldn't focus due to the shouting coming from the next room. In the end he closed his notebook and headed out to see what was going on.

"I was trying to do my job!" shouted Anxiety angrily, glaring at Roman.

Roman shot a glare back and yelled "you need to be less miserable or you'll bring Thomas down!"

Patton was standing in between them looking upset and unsure of what to do.

Logan decided to step in and help for once. "what's going on here?" he asked looking at both the angry traits.

Anxiety growled "he keeps telling me how to do my job."

Roman immediately responded with "maybe if you did your job properly I wouldn't have to!"

Logan quickly silenced them both before another argument happened.

"how about you both stay out of each other's way from now on and we'll avoid anymore arguments." Logan suggested.

Anxiety huffed angrily and strode out of the room. A loud slam told them he'd gone to his room.

Logan sighed and turned to Roman who was still in a foul mood. "Leave Anxiety be Roman, the last thing we need is you two arguing again."

Roman muttered something and stormed off.

Logan turned to Patton who looked relieved the situation had been resolved somewhat.

"that's the fifth time this week." Patton mumbled with a sad sigh. He hated when his sons fought. He knew they technically weren't his sons but he still felt as protective as a dad about them so they were his sons in his mind.

Logan frowned and tried to figure out why they kept having so much conflict. He couldn't think of anything and reluctantly he turned to Patton for more information. "can you think of any reason why they'd be arguing so much?" he asked.

Patton looked thoughtful. "I have a couple ideas but I can't share them as they are secrets and..."

Logan raised his hands in a sign of surrender. He wasn't going to try and pry secrets from Patton after last time. He frowned and decided he needed more information so he went to go talk to Anxiety.

Anxiety paced his room, trying to calm his angry breathing but to no avail. He turned to the one thing that was guaranteed to calm him, his guitar.

He lightly strummed the strings and felt much calmer so he started to play a small tune he'd made up. It was about then that Logan walked in, his knock drowned out by the electric guitars powerful noise.

Logan stood in the doorway in shock. If any of the sides knew how to play an instrument he would have guessed Roman as he is the creative side but standing here watching Anxiety he couldn't help but be impressed.

He'd always wanted to learn to play an instrument to broaden his knowledge but he didn't have the time or, most annoyingly, the imagination to create new tunes and songs.

Anxiety had his eyes closed as he made the guitar let out a short wail but at the sound of applause they shot open and he felt his face flush red at being watched.

"get the hell out of my room!" he yelled, putting the guitar on his bed and stalking towards Logan, ready to push him out and slam the door.

Logan ignored the annoyed and embarrassed Anxiety and stepped around him, closing the door as he did so. "that was very good playing. It must have taken lots of practice to get to that stage. Also I knocked but you must not have heard me over the guitar." Logan stated, hoping his calm explanation would be enough to cool Anxietys mood.
