Warning for mentions of an anxiety attack, plenty of crying and sadness in this one (it was supposed to be a lot more emotional but I failed so...... it's just hurt/comfort fluff)

Logan woke up early as usual, getting up and changing into his usual clothing. He decided to check his phone before doing anything else, finding many texts from Virgil that he had received at around four in the morning. He read over them, breath catching in his throat.

Virgil: Logan, could you come to my room

Virgil: Logan please

Virgil: I can't breathe. I need your help please

The final text was sent an hour after the others, at around five.

Virgil: sorry if I bothered you. I'm sure you've been asleep. Don't worry about me.

Despite what Virgil had said, Logan was very worried. He needed Logan, and Logan hadn't been there for him. He felt something eating away at him-what emotion it was he didn't know, and it didn't matter. What mattered was that he had failed Virgil, and he needed to go and check on him. What if he still wasn't okay? He sent Virgil a text as he made his way out of his room.

Logan: I am on my way to your room. I apologize for not responding before now.

He moved as quickly as he could, standing at Virgil's door and knocking on it. He stood back to wait for a response, hearing shuffling behind the door. It took a moment, but at last the door swung open, revealing the dark trait.

Virgil looked horrible. His hair was a mess, most likely due to him pulling at it and running his hands through it because of his nerves, and his eyes were red and puffy from crying. There were still trails of tears down his cheeks, and when he spoke his voice cracked.

"You didn't have to come." He muttered, sniffing and wiping his nose on his hoodie sleeve. "I'm sorry for sending you so many texts while you were sleeping."

"You are not the one who should be apologizing." Logan told him, shaking his head. "I am sorry. You needed me, and I... I was not there for you."

Virgil didn't say anything, looking down at his feet and sniffling again. Logan saw more tears fall to the ground, and felt a strange pain in his chest. He did not like seeing Virgil this way.

"Is there..." Logan started, pausing to clear his throat. "Is there anything I can do..? To help you?"

Virgil looked up at him, still crying, slowly opening up his arms to silently ask for a hug. Logan was hesitant, not used to physical contact of any kind, but decided he would do it for Virgil. He stepped carefully forward, letting Virgil wrap his arms around him and returning the embrace awkwardly. Virgil hid his face in Logan's shoulder, Logan not caring one bit as he got his shirt wet with tears.

They stood quietly for a while, holding each other while Virgil cried. After a while his tears stopped, and it was completely silent between them.

"I... know I keep saying this, but I am truly sorry for not being here for you earlier." Logan broke the silence, still holding the dark trait close to him, his head resting on top of the others. Virgil shrugged.

"You're here now, right?" He mumbled, closing his eyes as he leaned heavily into Logan. "That's what matters. Thank you for coming to help me."

Logan heard him stifle a yawn, and smiled slightly. "Are you tired?"

"Haven't slept all night, so yeah. Kinda." Virgil shrugged again, and Logan's smile fell.

"You haven't slept at all? That is definitely not good. You need to get some rest." Logan frowned, carefully leading the sleepy side over to his bed and sitting him down. Virgil whined as Logan pulled away from the hug to do so.

"Don't leave me.." he complained, hand finding Logan's arm and holding carefully onto him. "I don't want to be alone again."

"Who said I was leaving? I simply need to remove my shoes so that I can lie down with you." The logical side explained, smiling over at Virgil who smiled back. He let go of his arm, shuffling over in his bed to make room for him. When Logan did get into bed, he once again wrapped his arms around Virgil and held him close, Virgil smiling as he held Logan back.

"Logan?" He asked, receiving a him in response. "I... uh.." I love you. "I wanted to say thanks. For being here."

"There is no need to thank me. This is simply what you do for the people you love." Logan smiled at him again, very hesitantly leaning forward to kiss his forehead. Virgil felt his face heat up, and he nodded. "But, Virgil... If you ever need me again, please do not hesitate to come to my room to wake me. I will not mind. If you need me, I'll be there."

"Okay." Virgil agreed, relaxing and becoming even sleepier as Logan started running his hands through his hair. "And Logan..."

Logan hummed again, signaling for him to continue. Virgil mumbled to him just before drifting off.

"Love you too."

So I have a question for anyone who's ever made a friend before....... how do you approach them??? I wanna make a friend but I don't know how. I've literally never made a friend before. Everyone I've ever been friends with has approached me first(I haven't had many friends in my life lmao)

Should I just say something like "hey, I would love to be friends with you! You seem really awesome and nice." Or should I be more myself and act silly and just be like "yo wanna talk about aliens" or something else what should I do I don't know this is all so scary and confusing ahhhhhhh (I'm talking about possibly making a new friend when I still need to respond to messages I get from other people and ahhh.... if you've messaged me lately and I stopped responding/just didn't answer I'm so sorry life's been fucking awful)

On a separate note..... holy shit I have 997 followers what the hell why

Thanks to everyone who's following me!!!!!!! That's an insane amount of people honestly three years ago I'd be surprised to even get one and now here I am and this is honestly insane

Also it does look like instead of disappearing I'm gonna be writing a whole bunch, but the thing is..... I might not work on oneshots as much as other things. Cause I'm currently working on 1. Continuing to publish chapters for Robot 2. Planning out Tallies and Flowers and 3. Working on two original secret things(that no one will probably read lmao)

Okay well, one of the secret things isn't that big of a deal and may or may not ever end up uploaded on here, but I do really want to work on the second secret thing (although that's not gonna be finished any time soon, and is still in the extremely early planning stages lol)

Not only that, but me and my dad are finally sitting down to talk about and work on our YouTube channel.

Basically, life sucks and I'm stressed so I'm adding ten new things in my life to get stressed over so that I can ignore what's currently making me feel stressed bc.... well I'm a moron

So yeah uploads on oneshots still may be slow, but I'll try my best to get them out maybe not daily, but every other day? Or something like that. I'll do my best.

Anyways, thanks for reading, hope you enjoyed this. *your s/o takes you to dinner and when you get home there's candles everywhere and your s/o gets on one knee and proposes with a ring pop and there's little ring pops everywhere*

That's an amazing suggestion. Y'know what sucks tho? I no longer have that picture of me proposing with a ring pop bc I switched phones. I should try and find it and get it again... it's a great photo. ...or I could remake it. Anyways, take care of yourselves. Love you guys. Bye-Bob
