Running,

virgil looked all around himself as he ran only seeing the white eyes and dark logs surrounding him as they did chase,

There were maniacal laughing and pain-filled screaming in all direction throwing his sense of direction for a loop, everything looked the same, why'd it all look the same!

Virgil's chest was heavy and tight desperate for air, he stopped for a second hoping they won't close in on him in his moment of complete weakness.

The laughing got louder as the screaming echoed in his ears as the black figures approached him from all sides.

having nowhere else to go he pressed himself against the tree so his back was slightly protected there was the laughing which boomed and the screams of grotesque pain filling his ears.

Could it just stop! It's getting too loud, "please just stop!"

Virgil shouted into the woods with the army of white eyes, it echoes as silence overtook them before hysterics began,

Louder laughing but instead of screams they whispered in his ear, nothing and everything,

His insecurities, his boyfriend, being left alone, not listened to, he's the bad guy. He wasn't it didn't end, the whisperers got louder as virgil began to weaken allowing them to approach and get louder again

He crumbled to the wood floor knees to his chest and he covered his ears to fruitlessly block out the cynical words and hyena-like laughing,

The trees around him splintered and they got closer disappearing their eyes unwavering from their target,

A freezing hand touched his neck as it hissed 'wake up' in his ear.

Virgil jerked awake with a scream, he had tears in his eyes and he couldn't breathe, his chest was too tight, he could still feel the freezing hand on his throat.

Emile had woken to virgil tossing and turning before, knowing this is a nightmare, not just him being restless had attempted to wake him before he spiralled to deep.

He touched his boyfriend on the shoulder and within seconds virgil screamed awake scaring the dog off the bed and smile flinched,

Virgil had begun hyperventilating eyes wide and alert to any movements, ears ringing with an echo of 'wake up'

Emile needed to do something or his boyfriend would spiral further into shock, "virgil, virgil look at me please, virgil? Can you hear me?"

Emile's voice was soft and gentle but was only muffled to Virgil's. ears as virgil scanned the room seeing movement from he left he looked seeing Emile through blurry eyes,

"E-e-em?" He attempted to say, his breath staggering multiple times, Emile nodded "yes it's me, hun, can you hear me virgil?"

Virgil looked at emiles lips as he spoke trying to hear through the white noise and echo, he only just hears him but nods, it's a start.

"Can I touch you?" The phantom touch of the cold hand on his neck came but virgil nodded, emiles nice, he can help, he wouldn't hurt him.

Emile slowly reached and took Virgil's hand, before squeezing and waiting for four seconds, then seven then eight.

Virgil slowly recognized the pattern attempting to copy it.

Slowly Emile noticed progress and changed to tracing shapes on Virgil's hand which helped as he would mumble the shapes emile was tracing in his palm, tickling him a little bit each shape getting more and more confident.

virgil sighed leaning onto emile now fully calmed and exhausted, "thank you em" emile hugged virgil close kissing his forehead, "it's fine virge, do you want to talk about it?" virgil shook his head, "no, I just want to cuddle right now" emile hummed laying down and pulling virgil with him, who wasn't upset at all by the change of place,

"How about we call work and say you can't go in today, they've been overworking you anyway" Virgil remained silent but nodded moving to get his phone but emile held him a little tighter, "I can call them you stay" he insists and Virgil relaxes back into the hug,

Emile managed to reach over without disturbing Virgil's placement much and called them who offered a Couple to three days off for mental health reasons since Emile was a qualified therapist and insisted on it.

As soon as the call ended Emile turned the television on and put on the lilo and stitch, a classic where virgil remained either napping and cuddling watching movies for the day exchanging I love you's and soft kisses now and then in appreciation for the other, stitch curled up next to them sleeping soundly.

I heavily apologize for being so late with posting any and all fluffuary, I'm going through writers block and it's been difficult to keep the routine up (obviously since it's the 2nd of march for me-) I've also not been in the most positive place.

I'll be posting the ones I've managed to write then when I can get some sort of inspo I'll do the last two.
