Chapter Eight: Don't Cry

Okay. So... I'm writing this RIGHT after the last chapter ahaha...
Anyways let's just roll with this.

Warnings: Swearing (but what did you expect? None?) Spoilers for the new video, crying, panic attack

-

~Deceit's POV~

I'm going to do it. My name. I mean. Remus and Virgil already know it. No one else did. I told Remus and Virgil. I never told Logan, Roman, Patton, Remy, or Keeper.

I mean to be fair... Keeper hasn't revealed their name either.

I wake up looking for my hat. Oh, Keeper has my hat don't they? I'll have to either get my hat back or reveal my name without it. I get up dressing in a new pair of the same clothes, because I forgot to put on pajamas, after my little date..... friendly date..... with Keeper. I wonder what their name is. Anyways, I'll be truthful...

I love Keeper. Light Side or Dark Side. 'My answer changed a few days ago' yeah, because if Keeper wasn't a Light Side, they couldn't be my favorite Light Side. 'Why'd it take me so long to put them down?' Because I didn't want to. 'Why did my face light up as soon as we kissed?' Because I was so happy. 'Why do I notice every little detail about them?' Because I LOVE every single, small, microscopic, detail about them. 'Why are they a Dark Side?'

Because...

I made them one...

Oh no no no no nonononoNONONO!

All this time me and Remus just wanted to be accepted! No Dark Sides! But I made someone I love INTO a Dark Side. Because I was being selfish. Well... maybe... ugh...

I shouldn't think about this right now! I'll think about it later. I'm going to make an appearance anyways... maybe if all goes right...

Never mind... I have to get ready.

~Keeper's POV~

I wake up to a knock on my door. I slowly get up, Deceit's hat falling off my stomach. The knock was there again. "Who is it?" I ask. "Sorry... did I wake you?" A smooth voice rang. "No..." I lie. "Keeper... you do realize it's me, Deceit, right?" Deceit asks. "Blah! Whatever. Yeah, but it's fine. Did you need your hat back?" I ask blushing. "Yea, can I come in?" Deceit asks. "Of course!" I cheerfully say, hearing the click of the door. I put his hat on quickly. He walks in and smiles. And I thought his smirk was h- SHSHSHSHH... "Adorable." He says, snatching it off me. I blush. "I know." I sassily say. He chuckles.

"Anyways, sadly I have to go... prepare..." He says like he's hiding something. "Prepare what? Are you keeping a SECRET from SECRET?" I ask jokingly. "And you were saying how I was lying!" I sassily joke. He chuckles again, but hey, why would I complain, I lo-

think it's normal and it's healthy to laugh, so therefore (fuck you) why would I complain?

"Maybe I am... but either way, it's a surprise so you'll have to wait." He says smirking his usual gorgeously-normal smirk. Can my compliments Seán McSHUTTHEFUCKUP? "Okay. Well see ya Deceit." He pauses and smiles to himself. "Yup! Make sure to watch what's going on today, so you can actually know the surprise!" He seems somewhat happier than usual. I smile. "Okay!" We say our goodbyes and he leaves.

After a normal, err... as normal breakfast you can get, I head to my room, sink out, then behind the T.V. I didn't know where else to hide, so I hid back here. Then scooted as far from the center as possible in case Remus and/or Remy popped up. Speaking of, Remus is here. "What are you doing in my spot?" He whispers. "Dee said to watch what he was doing today, so I hid back here." I whisper back. "Ohhhh, but, I have a question....." He smiles evily. You glare at him. "What is it...?" "Why was your face red at breakfast?" He asks. My face reddens. "Because..." "You like the sssssnake?" He teases you. "Fine! I do. But you better keep it a secret!" I whisper-yell.

Patton appears and talks to Thomas.

~After the Video~

You smile. Deceit- Janus. Janus revealed his name. You and Remus sink down. "Why is your face red now?" Remus asks. "We sorta y'know... JUST discussed this." You blush further. "You guys watched?" Decei- Janus said. That's gonna take some time to get used to. "Yup! And Keeper ad-" "REMUS." You glare. "Umm.. okay, but you don't dislike the name?" He asks. "Pfft. No." You and Remus say. "I'm not my brother." "I'm not an asshole." "Well... I wouldn't say that..." Remus says. "I'm only an asshole to my friends, so if you think I'm an asshole, thank you." You say proudly.

"But, uhh... Janus... are you okay? My brother didn't hurt ya too bad did he?" Remus asks, actually serious for once. "Eh... it hurt but... I'm sort of... immune? To it... thanks to uh... Virge..." He says.

"You don't deserve that." I say. "You deserve better than to be hated on like that! You're a good person." I say. "Thanks Keeper... now you gotta tell us your name!" He says jokingly. "Oooo! I wonder what it is! Have you told anyone?" Remus asks. "Nope. Not even Starboi." I say. "What?! I thought Remy was like your bff?" Remus says. "Yea, but I never told him my name. Are we not bffs because I never told you my name?" I jump back in fake-offense. "Jeez, okay Janus." He says referring to the fake-offense. We three share a laugh.

"But seriously, Dece- Janus. You don- you don't deserve it either!" You say pointing to Remus. He smiles. You look at Dec- Janus again. "Neither of you do, sure you two are seen as bad, lying is seen as bad, you being the embodiment of Deceit, sadly, you're gonna be seen as bad." I look at Remus again. "And since Creativity split into 'Good' and 'Bad' Creativity, you kind of just got thrown into it." I pause. "Hell. I'm lucky Thomas saw me as good in the first place." I look toward the ground. "Then... everyone started to get tired of me..." I say sadly. I look up at De- Janus.

"Why are you hanging with us? Go hang with Patton, go prove your a good guy! Virge wasn't there, Ro still doesn't believe it, go prove it." You say smiling sadly, looking back to the ground. "Because you guys are who I belong with." He says. You look up at him. "You guys KNOW I'm good. Even if some people don't believe it, you guys do. Sure Patton and Logan, but Patton believes there's good in everyone. Logan doesn't see anyone as 'good' or 'bad' he never takes sides, he's always on his own side. Virge came from the Dark Sides. He knows what it's like to be considered a bad guy. He knows we pretty much used him, but we don't like that we did that anymore." He pauses. "We changed. Ro 'needs' a villain if he wants to be a hero, but he doesn't... he's always the hero. Then you guys know me." He pauses again. "You guys KNOW I'm good." He finishes.

D- Janus walks over and pulls me and Remus into a group hug. We hug back. He sniffles. "Heyheyhey! Don't cry. Shshshsh... don't cry. It's okay." Janus holds us tighter. "Janus don't cry." Remus says. I start rubbing circles on his back to calm him down.

"Hey Janus! Janus?" Patton walks over. "Hey Janus! Are you okay?" Patton asks. "Yeah... I'm fine." He lies. "Janus..." Patton mildly scolds. Janus looks over to Patton. "Janus!" Patton runs over and joins the hug. "Hey it's okay! You're gonna be okay kiddo!" He assures. Janus breaks the hug, wiping his tears. "I know, thanks Pat." He says, smiling. He takes his hat off and fans himself with it to stop any other tears. "It's okay to cry Janus." I smile. "I know it's just difficult to wipe tears with scales." He says.

"How do you know his name kiddo?" Patton asks me. "Huh?" You were shocked he decided to talk to you, even after Janus and Remus showed you the video and that he does indeed care. "I was watching, I was behind the T.V. Half the time I couldn't see because Ro was there." I chuckle slightly. Patton stares at me like he knows something. "Then there was this dork making stupid jokes the whole time." I say pointing to Remus. He throws up peace signs with his hands. "How'd you know that was going to happen?" He asks. "Janus told me. As well as Remus." I say. He stares at me intensely trying to get a specific piece of information out of me.

"Can I ask you a question in private?" He asks. "Uhh..." I look back at Wingus and Dingus, I mean Janus and Remus. They both nod. "Sure." I say. "Great!" He says taking my arm excitedly. He takes me away from the group. "Do you have a little thing for Janus?" He asks. Is everyone gonna ask me this? "Man, if I didn't know any better, I would think you were Remus, he asked the same question." I say, blushing. "Well do ya?" He says. "Is this why you were staring at me the whole time over there?" I ask. "Maybe if you answer my question I'll answer your question." He says. I sigh. "Yea..." He makes his excited Patton noises, muttering a quiet 'I ship it'. "Yes that was why I was staring at you. Guess what though!" He pauses. "I think he likes you too~!" He whispers. "Yeah right." I say as if I believe he hates me. "Oh come on kiddo! He totally likes you back~!" He says in a sing-song voice. I start to blush, hoping he's right. "We should probably get back to Janus and Remus." I say. "Aww... all right kiddo, let's go!" Patton teases.

~Janus's POV~

"You think they're talking about you?" Remus asks. "Why would they?" I ask. "I think I know what Patton is asking Keeper." He says. " what is he asking then?" I ask. "Welllllll I did only say think." He says. "Remus..." I say hoping he'll speak his mind. "He probably asked Keeper if they like you." I freeze. "What...?" I say. "Yeaaaah, is there something wrong with that Janus?" He asks me. "Uhhh....." "We're back!" Patton exclaims. "Are you feeling better kiddo?" He asks me. "I uhhh, think aside from one thing..." I say glaring at Remus. He does his evil cackle. "I'm not even gonna ask." Keeps says. "Hey uhhh... Pat?" Remus says. Patton looks at him, waiting for him to continue.

"Is... is Ro okay?"

"Y'know... that's a good question... I think so... he'll definitely be fine eventually... but right now... I don't know... sorry kiddo." Popstar says. "It's alright! Anyways, Keeps how ya holdin' up?" Remus asks, us three then stare at them. "Me? Eh.. could be better." I grow suspicious.

"Hey Patton! I need your help!" Virgil asks. "Okay! Just a sec kiddo!" Patton gives everyone a hug and makes sure we're okay. When he gets to Keeper something strange happens. I heard him mutter a quiet 'We miss you kiddo' to them.

That's when Keeper breaks down and sobs in his shoulder. Me and Remus's eyes grow in shock. We run to Keeper. "Hey! Shshshhh... it's fine we got you Keeps..." but nothings working... they start hyperventilating... "Here give me them..." I mutter to Patton... I get on the ground and slowly drag them down with me... "Keeper... look at me..." I say softly. They look up at me... tears in their eyes... "You're going to be alright..." I pause and hold their hands, intertwining our fingers. "Just breathe..." I say. They slowly start calming down. At this point Patton and Remus are also on the ground. "See...? I got you..." I whisper... bringing up a hand to wipe their tears... they smile and hug me... face in the crook of my neck, I feel my face heat up.

"How did you do that?" Patton asks. "I know what works and doesn't work for panic attacks." I say, not too and suddenly loud to scare Keeper, but loud enough for Remus and Patton to hear. I start rubbing circles on their back. Soon enough they fully calm down, crying a bit still, but calm. Sadly, they pull away from me.

"S...sorry..." Keeper mumbles. "Don't be!" We three shout at once. They jump back a little, muttering 'Jebus...' under their breath. "It's okay to cry Keeps." I repeat their words. They give a tiny chuckle. "I just was shocked that you would talk to me as if I never left..." They quietly say, glancing at Patton. "Heh my bad kiddo." He says.

"Pat?!" Virgil yells. "Oh shoot! I forgot!" He says. "Coming!" He gives Keeper a quick hug running to Virgil's room. A couple silent moments pass. Then Keeper sighs. "Fuck emotions." They say. Me and Remus chuckle. "You better now Keeper?" I ask. "I guess..." They mumble. "I'm uhhh.... gonna leave you two alone." Remus teases. I blush slightly.

"Do you want to go to my room?" I ask. "Sure!" They say happily. We walk to my room.
