A/n: almost an entire year since I last posted a chapter

I'm sorry ya'll 💀

Summer is free tho since im quitting the marching band🎺🎺🎺 so I might finally finish broken and abused and finally update more on this😄😄😄

The amount of sunlight streaming through Patton's light blue cookie monster patterned curtains was just enough to bring Virgil out of a quiet, blissful sleep into the misery of life.

He closed his eyes and sighed, bringing his hands up to his face to block out the sun. Patton's curtains were basically see through, how did he live like this?! Virgil's curtains were completely blackout. He liked to fall asleep in complete darkness and wake up the same way.

He cracked open his eyes, allowing them to adjust to the brightness in the room. His phone was absolutely blowing up. He tried to sit up and froze at what he felt around him.

Logan.

Right.

Logan had his arms wrapped around Virgil's midsection, his face buried in his side. As he tried to get up, Logan only pulled him closer. Virgil's face was overtaken by a deep scarlet hue as slowly reached for his phone. Logan shifted a little bit and cuddled into Virgil's chest.

He was gay. He was so gay, he was disappointing his ancestors, he was disappointing god—

When opened his phone and looked at the messages he could have screamed.

His mom and Remy were blowing up the family group chat. He scrolled to the start of the conversation.

Mama oooh~: VIRGIL

Mama oooh~: WHAT IS THIS?

His face burnt with embarrssment at the picture his mom showed. It was him and Logan cuddling.

He scrolled rapidly theough the chat, both his mom and brother booming with questions, and ultimately finding out that Patton sent his mom the photo.

He honestly had no clue what to even type back in response to all of that.

Remy: VIRGIL I CAN SEE THAT YOU'VE READ THESE MESSAGES ANSWER US ???

Virgil let out a soft groan and put and arm over his face, slamming his head onto the pillow. What was he supposed to say? 'Oh, we're just friends?'  Yeah, right. If even Patton could see that there was something there, there's no way he would get it past his own family.

He would be lying if he said he didn't have a tiny little crush on Logan. But...there were so many reasons they couldn't be together.

For one—Patton and Logan had basically just broken up. It might be too early for Logan to want to commit again. Plus, bro code. Logan was basically off limits, he couldn't date his best friend's ex. At least not so early after the break up. That was just a rule of life.

Secondly—Logan obviously had social issues. He wasn't the best at communicating, and well. Virgil didn't talk, so could they really work? Patton and Logan kinda complimented each other. Patton could get Logan out of his shell, and Logan could reign Patton back in if he got to be a little too much.

But Logan and Virgil? Together? It was enough to make anyone laugh. How would they do anything? It was evident that they were both a bit socially awkward, and plus, if Virgil couldn't even talk to him—

His face lit up, talk to him. If he could figure out how to talk to Logan, that would solve at least one of the problems.

All he had to do was establish a bond close enough to be comfortable talking to him, and that would certainly take a while. Long enough for both Patton and Logan to try and get over the break up.

But none of that really mattered. Would Logan even want to be with him? He was weird, he didn't talk, and he didn't think of himself as particularly handsome.

He put his phone down. He could kill Patton later. Right now he was enjoying the time he was spending with Logan, slowly spilling an arm under his neck and wrapping his arms around him. Logan cuddled further into him and Virgil sighed with content.

—-Timeskip brought to you by the hangnail I just ripped off——

Ultimately, Virgil decides that it would be in his best interest if he kept Patton alive. So instead of killing him, after he explained to Logan what happened, they both went downstairs and had a laugh about it.

Virgil was a little excited to see that Logan looked flustered rather than upset. He hoped he could score himself some delicious nerd eventually.

'I won't kill Patton, but Roman you aren't safe' Virgil signed.

"What?!" Roman cried, "Virgil, think of all we've been through together! We had chemistry!"

Virgil rolled his eyes, 'i'll admit you're hot but you're also a dickwad. So.'

Roman scoffed in disbelief, "well I never!"

Logan and Patton actually had the balls to laugh at him, and Roman folded his arms and huffed, "Patton! You're supposed to be on my side!"

"I didn't sign a contract" Patton joked.

"So what, i'm just alone?!" He shrieked.

"Yes" Logan said, "you deserve it."

Roman put a hand over his heart, "I'm wounded."

"Oh, we're only teasing!" Patton giggled.

'We were?' Virgil signed to Logan.

Logan snorted, before putting a hand over his mouth and blushing.

"Oh my goodness!" Patton squealed.

"You snorted!" Roman screamed.

Virgil looked away so that they wouldn't be able to see him blushing. But he couldn't help it, that was adorable.

"Changing the subject!" Logan yelled.

"His face is so red, look at him blushing" Roman cooed.

"That's the final straw. I'm out of here" Logan said.

Virgil let out a quiet laugh and Logan stopped moving immediately, 'Logan, come on, we're sorry' he signed, the smile on his lips making his eyes crinkle a little bit.

Logan grumbled, "fine."

Roman and Patton smirked at each other.
