Father/son in this one. No romance.

Virgil's day had been awful. He felt sick from the second he woke up, and his mental health was no better. He decided it wasn't worth getting out of bed that day, he felt too bad and he had no energy to use to get up anyways. So, pulling his blankets up further Virgil rolled back over and pulled out his phone, messing around online to avoid listening to his own thoughts.

Patton had noticed that Virgil hadn't come out even once that day. He began to worry about him when he didn't show up to even eat, and decided he should probably go and check on him. He made his way to the darker traits bedroom, calling out to ask if he was doing okay. The only reply he got was a very loud cough that lasted for a while. Patton frowned, and decided to go in and make sure he was okay.

He found Virgil curled up in his bed, phone dropped onto the bed in front of him as he covered his mouth while he coughed. He didn't look very good. Patton rushed over to him, patting him on the back and waiting for him to finish coughing. Virgil leaned against Patton as he stopped coughing, taking a minute to breathe.

"Hey, dad." Virgil greeted, voice scratchy and tired sounding. Patton frowned as he heard it, rubbing his back comfortingly.

"Hey kiddo. Feeling sick?" Patton asked, and Virgil nodded, sighing.

"Yeah." He mumbled, eyes shut tightly as he tried once again to ignore his panicked thoughts. His mind was against him today, and nothing seemed to help. Not even distractions. "I feel like throwing up and I'm not sure if it's cause I'm sick or cause I'm anxious."

"I'm sorry," Patton hugged him. "I know you probably don't want to get out of bed today, and that's okay, but you should at least try and take a shower or a bath. Relax, and get changed into some clean clothes. You can wear pajamas again, but it might help to get cleaned off. While you're in there, I'll change your sheets and even get you a blanket right out of the dryer, so it's warm. Is that okay? Do you think you can do that?"

"Yeah," Virgil nodded. "Yeah, that does sound nice."

Patton smiled and kissed his forehead. "Okay, well if you need anything just call for me alright? I'll get you something for your cough too, all you've gotta do is go take a shower and I'll take care of everything else for you."

"Okay," Virgil gave a tiny smile back. "Thanks, dad."

"I'm always here for you, Verge."

Wow bob feels like shit today what a surprise
Vent-y authors note you don't have to read aha

Wasn't gonna write anything today but. Felt like I had to, aha. So basically, sorry for venting by writing this but I feel sick and anxious and sad and I hate how lazy depression makes me feel.

I should probably actually get up and take a shower or something. That really does help sometimes, and I should also probably change my sheets. Basically I just need to take my own advice that I wrote into this.

Because I've felt awful mentally today I haven't been talking much, which is why I wasn't on here and like. I feel bad for that. Sorry to any of my friends that tried to talk to me, please don't be mad at me I don't think I could take it ahaha.

Yeah. I already feel like everyone's mad at me today. I screw up a lot. God I honestly dunno how I've kept from crying all day but I can't seem to help it now. I kinda just wanna, stop existing for a while. Not permanently. Just for a while.

I feel really guilty and selfish for feeling sad. It's so stupid. Feelings are so stupid.

If I don't update for a bit sorry. I swear I'll live, so I'll be back. Just for now I'm sad and tired and I just kinda wanna stay in bed and do nothing for a bit. I should go and take a shower now.

Thanks for reading guys. One thing that has made me happy today is that this book has 177k reads now, and I have 666 followers so hey that's pretty neat. Thanks. I love you guys, and I hope you enjoyed this. Sorry for my pointless ranting, I know you guys say you don't mind but I feel annoying so I'll apologize anyways.

*ring pops for you all*

Hope you guys are doing better than me, but if not then. Well if you're still alive and trying then I'm proud of you. I know how hard that is. Love you guys. Try and take care of yourselves. Bye-Bob

Have a funny picture as apology for my sad note

I'd so be a dragon. Dragons can do whatever the fuck they want they got nothing to be sad about probably.
