"Dad? But.." Remus mumbled, trailing off as he gave Roman a confused look. Roman nodded a little, tears filling his eyes a little. "Ro.. Dad doesn't exist anymore.. we'd have to fuse again to bring dad back.."

"I-I know Re, but I saw him! I-I swear I did.." Roman stuttered out. "H-he said h-he'll always be w-with us.."

"That's our dad alright.." Remus sighed softly and kissed his twins head. He felt a tug and heard Thomas calling for them. "T wants us.."

Roman nodded, snapping into comfier clothing before letting remus help him stand up to sink out and rise up into Thomas's living room. Roman leaned against his brother, dizzy and nauseous from the rising up.

"Where's Deceit and Patton at?" Thomas asked as he looked for the two missing Sides.

"Dee had some business to attend to and Patton is..er..busy with someone else." Remus answered with his crazy persona showing. He made his eyes dilate just to further slip on his mask.

"You doing alright, Princey?" Virgil asked, giving the prince a look to hint at what he meant. Logan gave the Prince the same look, not liking how pale Roman was.

"Y-yeah, 'm fine," Roman waved it off, closing his eyes a bit as he let Remus stabilize his standing. "What did you need us for Thomas?"

Thomas looked at the four, biting his lip as he tried to figure put what happened between them. "Well.. My emotions have been hazy, my creativity has been..dark but Logan already confirmed that he and Remus filtered the intrusive thoughts already so it's not him.."

"Oh.. My apologies, I hadn't realized my thoughts have been seeping out to your thought stream. Worry not, you won't have to deal with it anymore.." Roman forced a smile, subtly scratching at his wrist.

"Oh no you don't. You are not going to duck out or shut us out again. I'm not going to risk losing you for a second time, Roman!" Virgil growled out, but not in a mean way. It was more of a scared 'i can't lose you, please don't leave me!' sort of way.

Thomas gave Roman a concerned look and bit his lip. "Ro.. Did something happen..? Please be honest.."

Roman shrugged and looked down, mumbling something under his breath as he felt Remus hug him supportively. Nothing like attempted suicide to bring family together.

"Nothing imp–" Roman was cut off by Logan. A soft glare came from the nerd as he interjected the sentence.

"Roman, you trying to commit suicide is very much important. We could've..- We couldn't lost you, Roman.." Logan couldn't keep his seriousness, the thought of losing his best friend and the only person that understands him upsets him. "I would have lost you, Princey!"

Romans eyes widened as he saw Logan break down. The usually sophisticated and put together nerd was crumbling at the thought of Roman dying. Hesitantly, Roman made sure there were no cameras on to cause the invisible wall before stumbling over to the crying nerd and hugging him tightly.

"It's ok, Lo.. I'm here.." Roman murmured. Soon, Virgil joined the hug, needing to touch Roman and make sure the prince was still alive and really with them. Remus eventually joined the hug but he simply hovered over the others, not wanting to upset them with his touch.

Roman frowned as the boy in his arms begged him to not leave. What was he supposed to do in a situation like this? He didn't want to be alive but he didn't have the heart to break Logan more.

"I won't leave, Lo.. I'm not going anywhere.."
