Third Person POV

After Logan's parents, more specifically Lola, had left, the birthday was much more enjoyable.

Larry gave the twins their present from him, which was a bunch of kids books, before he left.

Ash had given them Nerf guns with lots of bullets that were most definitely going to end up everywhere. Patton, Logan and Dean had all given each other the same look but Pat and Lo accepted the gift nonetheless.

Dean, who the twins had begun to call Uncle Dee, totally not because of Patton, and Virgil gave the twins each two big stuffed animals that were larger than them. Remus received a large octopus, and Roman got a large lion, which he found very comfortable to sit on.
(Does anyone wanna name the octopus and/or lion?)

Emile gave Roman a bunch of Disney movies that you couldn't find on Netflix, mostly Disney princess ones because he thought Roman would like those ones because they contained princes, and Remus a bunch of fake moustaches, which he put on immediately.
(Shush, I didn't know about Disney+ when I wrote this)

And they received many more toys from Patton and Logan.

It was now two days later and they were about to leave for the camping trip. Patton wanted to get a tent and do "real" camping but Logan would not have it and rented a trailer instead. Which cost a lot more, but whatever.

Dean's POV

I was hesitant on letting Virgil go camping with them, having not being so far away from each other, even if it was just for a couple days. But I was busy that week and Roman and Patton insisted on it, Patton promising that everything would be fine.

"Okay, Virgil, you be good, got it?" I reminded, crouching down to Virgil's height.

Virgil nodded. I could tell he was happy to be going, but he was also scared and anxious about it. He didn't like being away from me when he was just at the Sanders house for a few hours a day. Never mind two whole days in a place he didn't know, in presumably the middle of nowhere!

"Stay safe, wear your sunscreen and bug spray. Say please and thank you. Eat your food. Don't be mean to Roman and Remus. Listen. Say please and thank you- did I already say that..?" I rambled, concern clear in my voice.

"Daddy," Virgil interrupted, "I be okay. No worry." He said, giving me a hug.

I could have cried right then and there at Virgil's cute yet mature voice. Of course, I didn't, but I couldn't help my eyes from watering a bit.

"Okay.." I said, pulling away from the hug and smiling at Virgil who smiled back.

"Ready to go?" Patton asked, walking over to us.

I nodded, standing back up and ushering Virgil to go over to them.

Patton whispered something to Logan and Logan nodded, beginning to gather all the kids and put them in the back of the truck. Patton walked over to me and put a hand on my shoulder.

"Don't worry, he'll be fine, we'll take care of him." Pat reassured with a smile.

It seemed to work as his voice and smile were very reassuring and different from his usual loud happy self. Nonetheless I was visibly more relaxed.

I knew I needed to be less overprotective of Virgil, but I couldn't help it. All the shit that he's been through at such a young age... I just want him to grow up and have a normal life. I don't want him to remember or know all of this shit that has happened.. I don't even know how I would tell him. I just hope the conversation never comes up. But I'm thinking too far into the future.

I smiled at Patton, "thank you." I said.

"No problem!" Patton replied, smiling widely and going back to his happy pappy self.

Patton and Logan got into the front seats, Logan in diver and Patton in passenger. I watched from my driveway as Logan started up the truck, the trailer attached to the back.

"Bye uncle Dee!!" The twins called out from the back, waving frantically.

"Bye daddy!" I heard Virgil's smaller voice call out as well.

"Bye kids!" I yelled as well, waving goodbye to them.

I watched the truck drive down the road and slowly disappear in the distance.

Virgil will be fine. I reassured myself.

Logan's POV

I drove down the highway on my way to the campsite. I had managed to find a pretty empty location with very few people around. However, the campsite was quite far away and would take a few hours to get there but I don't mind driving. I found it quite relaxing as years of experience now came naturally and the roads we were taking were pretty empty.

Patton was colouring with different coloured sharpies in his colouring book in the passenger seat beside me. His legs up on the seat despite me telling him that it was unsafe to sit like that in a vehicle but he did it anyway.

(I literally didn't know how to spell vehicle so I looked up "what is a car" on google and now my friend is laughing at me and I feel attacked-)

The kids were in the back watching one of Roman's new Disney princess movies on the DVD player that was on the ceiling. It was comfortably quiet as they watched in awe. Virgil curled up in his purple blanket and snuggling with Xantremous, claiming that he was cold, despite it being in the middle of summer.

(Yeah, its still summer in this book lmao, I have a timeline for events to happen)

The only sounds being the movie playing in the back, which I believe was Aladdin, and Patton's markers against the paper. Occasionally the kids would gasp at an event that happened.

After Aladdin was over, Roman went on a full on rant about how he would have defeated Jafar and freed the Genie right away and still got the princess in the end. After he was done with that, they chose The Lion King and began listening in silence again. Roman and Remus sang along to 'Can't Wait To Be King' having heard the song before.

By the time we got there, Patton had almost fallen asleep in his seat, Remus was asleep and snoring loudly and Roman and Virgil were watching The Little Mermaid intensely.

"We're here!" I stated to everyone, having to yell a bit over the movie as a clearly dramatic scene was happening.

I was guessing it was the scene wear Prince Eric was killing Ursula with the ships mast being impaled into her gut.. Maybe Disney movies were not as innocent as we all assumed them to be...

Patton perked up immediately, any remaining sleepiness gone. He looked out to where our camping location would be with wide and excited eyes. My heart melted and I couldn't help but smile at how excited and cute he was. God, how did I get so lucky?

Pat unbuckled his seatbelt and jumped out without second question. I chuckled to myself before turning to the kids in the back who were now watching the last marriage scene between Ariel and Eric. The kids faces scrunched up in disgust at the kissing, both saying "ewwww" at the same time, as Remus continued snoring off. Remus always seemed to sleep better in a car than at night in his bed.

"Are you two going to stay in here and watch another movie while Patton and I set up the campsite?" I asked.

"I can help!" Roman suggested, always wanting to be helpful.

He and Remus were quite loud and energetic kids. The opposite of Virgil who clearly wanted to stay in the car and just calmly watch a movie instead.

"If you would like to, Roman." I said, a bit reluctant since I knew he wouldn't actually be as much of a help as he said he would be.

"Yay! Come on Virgil!" Roman said excitedly, taking off his seatbelt and beginning to jump out of his car seat.

Virgil shook his head 'no'. Telling Roman that he didn't want to get out.

Roman frowned and seemed to hesitate for a second before sitting back down.

"If you not getting out, I not either!" He decided with a smile.

Virgil smiled though he tried to hide it.

"Okay, what movie do you guys want next?" I asked, looking through the large pile of cases and cases of movies.

Geez, Emile really went over the top.

"Virgil, you choose!" Roman said.

I let Virgil look over the movies and he eventually chose Tangled. I put the movie in, starting it up. I got out and began helping Patton with setting everything up.

I had never been camping before so this was new to me, however it was not like I was completely oblivious to camping activities. I was hoping to get some much needed family bonding since I was away working so often. Perhaps even get to know Virgil better since he was practically a part of the, as Patton calls it, famILY.

Well, this is going to be an.. Interesting experience.
