I'm in bed, exhausted from being crushed by Virgil at games. (I won Mariokart once) (But he won the rest) (Princess Peach cried) (I WILL AVENGE HER) 

I'm writing on my Wattpad account. My name is R-O-M-A-N (creative, right?). I can feel the story blooming in my head, and then onto my computer. I look down with a grimace. If the other sides found out... 

The thing is, I write Prinxiety.

God, that's so stupid. At the same time though... It's a nice way to voice what I think it would look like to actually date Virgil and my concerns about it. 

I'm currently writing a Soulmate AU.

"The jewel on my bracelet is supposed to glow when I meet my soulmate. I'm so excited to meet them! I've always longed for a person who loves me, inside and out. Everyone only wants to be my friend because I'm popular and hot. But that's not all I am! I have a soul too, and I also have a soulmate. It's my first day in a new school, but no glow all day long! I'm hoping that this is the class where it changes since I'm in Theater! I frown down at my bracelet as the bell rings, and almost scream in joy. It's glowing! Someone in the room must be my soulmate, but who?"

I stop writing abruptly, as I hear the door next to mine open. Virgil steps out quickly and jogs down the hall. 

I open my door a crack and frown when I see him at Patton's door. He tries the handle. I can tell it's locked when he looks panicked. He dives through the dog door!?! His waist gets stuck, and I almost laugh, seeing him flop like a fish out of water, but instead just step back and enjoy the view. ;)

What is he doing? Is he trying to give Patton nightmares? One way to find out. I wait until he's done getting through the door, and press my ear against the door. Crying sounds from within, and I just make out Virgil saying "May I please try to... you know."

I hear a thumping sound, and nothing else other than BLATANT SOBBING. Virgil starts whimpering, and I'm tempted to break down the door. I don't know what's going on it there, and it scares me. If it can hurt both sides badly enough that there's crying like that. I must defeat it.

Then Patton stops sobbing and just cries. Virgil starts crying. I almost scream with frustration, and try the handle, already knowing it's locked. I look at the dog door and wince. no way. Then Patton stops crying. Virgil is sobbing now, and I can hear the shaking in his voice. I Create a lock pick, pick the said lock, and run into the room. Virgil is sitting over Patton, hugging his knees, with tears pouring down his face. He's shaking so hard, that when he sees me, he asks "Who's that?" 

"It's Roman."

I look at him, trying to convey real concern, but he's crying so hard. I look at Patton and see that he looks fine, but not. Tears track down his face, and cracks run up his arm. I pull him into my arms, and he looks so exhausted. I put him on his bed, and pull a blanket over him. 

I reach into a bin, a pull out two blankets and pillows. I lay them on the ground, get Virgil onto them, very, very carefully, and settle on them myself.

I put my hand near his arm and ask "May I?"

He nods, sniffling, and I gently hug him.

My heart feels like it's going to burst when he snuggles into my chest and cries on me. He wraps his arms around me, and I do the same until we're cuddling. He begins to say "I had no idea... H-how much they loved each other."

I just nod, already knowing some of what was happening, and had been happening between them for some years. Virgil cries into my arms "I want that."

What is this feeling? I just pull him closer and press my face into his hair. It smells like coconut. Figuring he could use some help sleeping, I begin singing a lullaby, and we fall asleep, arms around each other.

(Virgils POV)

In the morning, I wake up feeling like I do most days when I end up cuddling my body pillow, and then notice said body pillow has grown arms. And changed colors.

Red and white glare back at me, and then I notice it's Princey. His arms wrap around me, with me curled into his chest, and his head on mine. I'm snuggling him. Why do I not feel disgusted? 

He groans when I try to extract myself, and so I stop, and he pulls me in closer. My hearts beating wildly, and I feel the happiest I have in... years. Since Deceit.

I snap out of it when he wakes up. I close my eyes, calm my breathing and pretend I'm asleep. I'm surprised when instead of pulling away, he snuggles me even closer and kisses the top of my head. He's whispering something. "I love you."

I almost flinch, but withhold, and pretend to wake up. I blink open my eyes, and look at Roman, turning bright red. He seems to notice our intertwined limbs and looks at me in fake surprise. 

I almost laugh "Do you not remember last night?"

"I do, but we're even more entangled now."

I look and see he's right. Our legs look like a tornado. I laugh and lean in. Very close.

He turns bright red. I bust out laughing, and he lightly smacks me for making fun of him. I get even closer, and our mouths are about an inch apart. His breath hitches, and he looks at me like I'm his whole world. This is the only moment that exists. I could make it better. I could kiss him. Or I could make it much more angsty. I put a finger to his lips, attempting to ignore the way they feel. I untangle myself and stand up. 

Patton's laying in bed and the clock says its 8:30. I look at his arm and see that the cracks are still there. I gently shake Patton awake, careful not to touch his arm. He sits up and looks at me confused. Then he sees Roman. He's still sitting on the blankets on the ground and looks like the world turned to ostriches. I really shocked him. He's bright red, and he shivers from the loss of body heat. Patton almost laughs. I know I do.

He shakes out of it, and soon Roman is walking towards us, a kind of kit in his hand. He sets it on Patton's desk, next to his stuffed animals, and opens it. There's a whirlwind of make-up in there, and he only grabs a few tubes of concealer. He takes a bit out of two and swatches them on Patton. Neither of them match, so he Creates one that does. He squeezes out a large amount and rubs it on Patton's arm, covering the cracks. He finishes, packs it, and it disappears. 

We leave Patton's room.
