Logan's (pov)

At last night fell, the humans going off to their own homes and yet the guards still scouring for Roman. Oh god I miss Roman. Virgil and Patton leading the way through shadows of the kingdom the two most human like.

"Do I really have to wear this thing?" I asked annoyed, a plain brown fabric draped around my upper body. "Well sorry kiddo but I don't speak race horse." Virgil snickered and pulled on the rope tied around my waist. Apparently race horses are the closest to my stature. It's unethical but necessary. "Neigh?" Virgil chuckled slapping my ass of all things. "Much better bessy!" Patton joined his laughter. "Bessy?! Now I can get use to bessy." "No one is getting use to bessy unless you feed her that magical smush that tastes delicious." I growled. I could practically hear Virgil's eyes roll. "We'll get you Crofters Bessy." "Fucking yippee ky yay!" I sung. The three of us laughing with another.

"And you call me a drama queen! My Logies an actor!"

Roman...Gosh the things he would say. His beautiful witty remarks. How smart must a man be. "Logan?" I snapped back to reality looking too the others. "Yes?" The two held a sad smile on their face. As if knowing what I was thinking about. "We're going to find him. Ok?" I nodded at Virgil's somewhat comforting words.

I just hope he's safe...

Roman's (pov)

I attempted to laugh as Remus ran around his room. Trying to show and name everything he could for me. From his collection of animal teeth to his favourite skirts. I wrote down on the slip of paper handed to me, catching Remus's attention and making him slide over on his knees to get to me. "Can I ask you something?" I wrote. By some miracle he remembered English writing but his pronunciation got lost as he had to learn Logan's language. The elves using Remus's English to their advantage to teach him. He nodded rapidly, babbling on, an innocent look in his eye. I quickly scribbled down my question. "What happened that night? On the boat?" His eyes saddened as he took the paper from me. You see Remus...well I thought he died. Everyone did.

After awhile he handed it back, I took a deep breathe as I started to read.

'It's a long story I'll be honest. That night I know Mother wanted to go on a boat trip to mourn Dad's death. To get away from the hurt. I remember playing in the deck alongside you'

Remus and I giggled and laughed across the boat. Dark wood, rocking from side to side at the large waves, light rain soaking and curling our hair. "Boys! Boys!" A womanly voice came from behind us. "Momma!" We both called in unison. We both ran over to our Mother. She wore a red scarf around her me neck, flowing gently down her shoulders. The black belt and white dress decorated in green roses. "Come now loves. Inside the both of you! It's going to be much more than a pitta patter you know?"

'I don't remember how we laughed. After all dad just died. I don't remember much about him. I wondered if you did? He was happy a lot of the time but would always insist on staying awake late at night. As if he didn't want to sleep in his room with mother. But anyway, when she took us in she did look down. I thought because of dad but I'm not sure.'

The two of us jumped up onto our bunk beds. Remus taking the top bunk and I taking the bottom. Mother came in smiling at the two of us, though it was small it was there. "Boys? May I tell you something?" She shut the door, gliding over, silk dressing gown dragging on the ground. She looks like an angel... She sat on the steps that Remus hobbled up, taking both of our hands "You two love Daddy don't you?" We nodded right away. "Miss him too?" We nodded again. "G-good. Because your Daddy was special. He believed in peace and harmony and I love him. So, so dearly." She cried Remus kneeling up and hugging Mamas neck with myself getting her legs. "H-he was in love too...Just in a different way." I look at her with wide eyes. Different way? What's that supposed to mean? I looked up to Remus who's face softened. He knew. "What do you mea-

"Everybody get down!"

'The ship started to shake and I got dragged away by mother's men. I saw them take you and she ran upstairs to the captain. I got on a life boat but no one came for us. The men were so scared and ended up jumping. When I washed up the elves found me. And that's really all I've known'

I finished reading, tears in my eyes looking Remus in his own. "Ro-Ro?" I squawked engulfing him in a hug. Dad was gay, Remus was left to rot on a boat and now we're together I can't even tell him I love him because of that snake....

"Intruders at the borderline!"
