Deceit was in his room. He wanted to tell them the truth of what happened. He didn't know why he wanted to.

Was it guilt that he was feeling?

Maybe, just maybe... he could tell them what actually happened.

And that's what he was going to do.

Deceit walked to the kitchen where Logan was making the potion. He saw Patton and Virgil there as well. Virgil looked over at him.

"DeeDee!" Virgil yelled, making Patton and Logan look over.

"Hey, kiddo! How can we help you?" Patton smiled, which made Deceit feel more guilty.

"I... have something to say." Deceit muttered. Logan stopped what he was doing.

"What is it?" Logan asked.

"Roman... wasn't the one who stole the ingredients." Deceit scratched his arm, it was itchy from him sweating and feeling terrible for what he did.

"What...?" Patton asked.

"It was Remus, Rebel, and I who forced him to steal the ingredients. We blackmailed him into doing it." Deceit admitted. Patton looked at him for a second and then stood up. He walked over to Deceit and pulled him into a hug.

"Thank you for telling us the truth, kiddo... we know it must've been hard for you," Patton whispered. Deceit placed his head on Patton's shoulder.

"I'm so sorry..." Deceit murmured.

"It's okay, kiddo. At least we know the truth." Patton pulled back.

"And I'm so proud of him!" A voice spoke up. Everyone turned and saw Honesty by the doorway.

"R-Rai..." Deceit looked down. Rai walked towards Deceit and lifted his head up.

"It's okay, Dee. I'm not mad. What you did was wrong, but at least you told the truth." Rai stroked Deceit's cheek. Deceit relaxed to the touch and smiled. Rai smiled and then kissed him. He pulled away. "It'll be okay, Dee."

Deceit nodded and touched foreheads with Rai.

"We should apologize to Roman..." Patton said to Logan. Logan nodded.

"After I finish this potion..." Logan said. "I just need to stir it."

"Alright."
