Confronting Thomas

~Logic's POV~

We sat in silence until Prince returned. It wasn't an awkward silence though, more like concerned silence.

Judging by the look on Prince's face, Anxiety isn't handling this very well.

"So we go talk to Thomas now?" Morality asks. Prince and I nod in agreement and, after a deep breath, sink into the real world.

We pop up in Thomas's bedroom, where he is still asleep.

"Someone has to wake him" I state. We all look at each other before prince steps up.

"I'll do it" he volunteers. We step back as Prince moves to wake Thomas. We watch as he shakes Thomas out of his sleep.

"Thomas... We need to talk..."

~Thomas's POV~

"Thomas... We need to talk..."

I look up seeing Prince next to me, Logic and Morality behind him.

"Huh?" I mumble tiredly. "Talk? About what?"

"About Anxiety." Prince says. My eyes widen and I sit up.

"What is it?!" I ask. I don't know what to expect but if it involves my personalities, it involves me. Especially if it's enough to make them all come out here and talk to me about it. Wait... All except Anxiety... If this is about him shouldn't he be here too?

"Something peculiar happened to Anxiety earlier and we have reason to believe that you were the cause." Logic says. I feel my stomach tighten up.

"What happened?" I ask.

"He fainted" Morality speaks up. "I came out here when it happened to see if you knew what might have caused it but you were asleep..."

Prince decides to continue since Morality was trailing off. "He didn't want to wake you so he looked around for clues... And he found the pills." Prince looks me in the eyes as he says it and I immediately feel guilty since I know it was my fault.

"Oh my god..." I say. "I'm so sorry! I don't even know why I did it! I was just tired and irritated I guess... But I didn't expect this to happen! I just thought it would make him shut up for a bit!" I pause. "And now that I say it out loud, that doesn't sound any better... Oh my god I'm so sorry! Is he okay?"

"Well..." Prince starts but doesn't seem to know how to continue.

"He's awake and without much physical damage, yes, but he over heard what happened when Morality was telling us what he found." Logic finishes.

"Oh my... I-I have to apologize I-" I'm cut off by Prince.

"I wouldn't. Not just yet anyways. After he heard he ran off to his room and I went after him. He was crying and he spoke so poorly about himself..." Prince hesitates, "He was so broken."

I put my hand over my mouth in shock. "I did this to him... I'm his host I'm supposed to take care of him but instead I got mad and hurt him-"

"Hey!" Morality interrupts, "Don't think like that! If YOU get a panic attack things will just get worse!... Listen kiddo, you're sorry, and you didn't mean any harm so I'm sure that with time, Anxiety will forgive you."

I nod and try to calm down.

He's right. Getting worked up won't do any good. It already happened, can't change that now. All I can do is give him time to heal and hope that he forgives me.

Oh Anxiety... I'm so sorry...
