Tw: panic attack (ish. Mostly just crying)

(Virgil's POV)

I sat in my room hugging my knees and crying. Would Patton be awake right now? Of course he wouldn't Virgil! He has a normal sleep schedule! Plus it's thanksgiving!! Ugh! Just pick up the damn phone and call him!

Virgil: Hey Dad
Virgil: Are you busy?
Virgil: its fine if you are...
Virgil: Or if your asleep
Virgil: Since it's 3:00 in the morning...
Pat-Dad 🐶: No no! I'm awake! Did you need to talk?
Virgil: yeah that would be great.

(Patton's POV)

I picked up the phone and called Virgil immediately.

"P-Patton?" I heard Virgil sniffle

"Aw, kiddo what's wrong?" I said with as much love as I could.

"Well..." he paused and took a breath and sobbed through my next sentence, "I saw Damian on campus today."

"..."

(Virgil's POV sorry for so many pov changes)

"Dad?" I asked when I got no response.

"What did he say?" He said with the fire of a million stars burning in his voice.

"He said 'Hey Virgiiiil~' and then he walked away," I said, remembering the way it was when we were dating. "It's like I was back in that time with him manipulating me."

"That slimy son of a bitch! Can't he see that you are hurting enough and that he needs to leave you alone?!" He screamed through the phone. I was taken aback, one by his cursing, and two by his tone of voice. "I swear if I was near you I would go beat his a-"

"Patton! It's ok, I have roman now," I said. I knew that Roman wouldn't manipulate me or do anything Damian did but there always was that fear.

"I still need to meet roman! He seems nice from seeing him on FaceTime with you but I need to meet him!" He said, sometimes his adhd got the better of him.

"Baby... are you going to come back to bed?" I heard Patton's husband, Logan, say and I laughed silently to myself, but a sob escaped my lips.

"One second love, it's Virgil..." Patton said, semi-whispering, "I'll come to bed when I'm done talking with him."

"Ok baby, I'll try to wait... *yawn* but I may be asleep..."

Patton was my high school best friend and he went to art school while I went to law school, where I met Damian and Roman. He has been there though breakups and panic attacks and even convinced me to go to therapy. I was even the best man at his wedding and The Godfather of his adopted child. I couldn't be more thankful for him.

(See? Thanksgiving time)
(time skip)

"Alright Virgil, I'm going to go to bed, I need to take Lizzy to school in the morning," he said with a yawn. "Are you ok for me to leave?"

"Yeah Patton, go cuddle with Logan or whatever."

"Alright... OH! We need to hang out soon! I'm going to come to California and meet roman as well!!!" He said happily

"Ok Patton," I said with a laugh, rolling onto my back on my bed.

"Bye Virgil!"

"Bye dad."

(Patton's POV)

I hung up the phone with a smile and a yawn. I went into Lizzy's room and watched her for a second. I remembered her being a tiny baby and holding her in my arms. I couldn't believe she was 6 years old already. I felt a pair of arms snake around my waist and I leaned into Logan.

"Mmmmm, baby come back to bed," he said tiredly.

"One more minute..." I said back

"Ok one minute."

"She just looks so peaceful. Remember when she would make grabby hands at us so we would pick her up." Logan swayed with me in his arms.

"Mhmmm."

"She is so cute and tiny."

"And so are you" he turned me around and kissed my nose. He picked me up and took me to our room and laid me on our bed. He laid down as well and I kissed him and we both fell asleep.
