WARNING:::: Movie spoilers later in the chapter... Idk... Also a make-out: not described and hickeys mentioned. I tried to keep it innocent for the innocent eyes... yeah. Enjoy, this took me a while.

Hello? This is Roman. I hope this is the right number.

sorry. I don't think this is the right number.

OMG, I am so sorry. I probably messed up one of the numbers. I'm sorry.

it's fine. hope you get the right number.

----///----

Sorry for texting you, but you were the first number at the top of my contacts and there are people following me down the road.

Dude... I don't know who you are or where you live (town wise). I don't think I'll be much help.

I just need to make it look like I'm contacting someone to help me. Hopefully so they leave me alone.

Okay? ummm........hi?

Hey. I just want to say (as an added note) you're grammar is good when texting. Just need to sort out your capitals.

What are you? grammar police nerd?

No, that's my friend. He corrected my texts that much, I now have to text properly, in fear he may attack me with stationary.

That's the best thing I've heard all week.

All week?!

I'm not very exciting.

How old are you?

That's personal.

Sorry. I guess I just want to know if I'm texting an old man or an 11yrold girl.

I'm 17.

Really?!

?? i'm confused. how old are ya?

I'm 19. Or will be next month.

neato. are the people following you still?

Umm... not that I can see anymore.

Cool. so i can go?

Yes. Thank you for your help. Goodbye.

Bye.

----///----

Hello!

Hello? You seem more excitable than when we last texted.

Oh! This isn't him, this is his best friend! Who is you? You're username is odd.

Him? Cool. What's my username?

'Mr.NoNameKid'

Is that a heathers quote?!

Most likely!

Ohh! He's coming back, I gotta hideivifrjwo *-/#idiisjxusgdi

??

Sorry about him...

It's completely fine.

He can be over protective at times. he's basically my dad without the strick attitude.

Mr.GrammarNerd is basically my brother with a strick attitude.

oof. i gtg. homework. bluh.

Good luck. Bye.

Bye.

----///----

Hello. The nerd is busy and I'm bored.

You just want an excuse to talk to me.

If you want to see it like that then be my guest.

thanks, it makes my heart so walm.

You're being scarcastic.

Oh you realised? you do have common sense.

Are you okay?

not particularly. i'm trying to take my mind off it though.

Do you watch disney?

What kind of question is that?

Of course I do, who doesn't.

Yay! That's good. I'm a disney freak.

Great, a disney nerd.

I'm not a nerd, I'm a jock for your information.

You're a jock?

Yes?

how are you still talking to me if you're a jock?

I'm friends with a nerd. I'm jock. What are you? Oh and your friend that texted me?

I'm emo, my friend is.... a hufflepuff?

You like Harry Potter?!

yes.

I'm a Gryffindor!

of course you are. i don't personally go in a hogwarts house. I fit into them all evenly.

Have you tried taking a quiz online or are you guessing?

but with quizzes online, the question is... is it the real deal or is it some 11yrold sorting you and getting a mistake in one of the questions.

Are you some sort of angst lord?

I'm emo. expect it.

Okay, well I don't care you emo nightmare.

Thank you

What can I say except you're welcome!

Please don't tell me that was from moana.

Okay, I won't tell you.

Oh god.

I can pratically feel the eye roll.

I have to go. my parents need me.

Oh, okay. Nice talking to you.

Bye.

----///----

I need to know something about you.

What? Why?

I just had a sudden thought that if I get caught texting you, and people ask who you are and all that, I need something to say so I'm not randomly texting a complete stranger.

How much info?

doesn't have to be much, but just tell me a few things about you so people don't get suspicious.

Only if you return the favour.

I was going to do that anyway so we're even.

I'm 18/19. A jock. My first name is Roman. But you know all that. I moved to California 2 years ago from Florida, visting every summer to see friends. My favourite colours are red, white and gold.

Just from that, I can see you in a Prince costume.

Also... there is one more thing that may determine if you still talk to me.

Don't tell me you murder people...

No.

I'm gay.

Oh. cool. don't worry, same.

Awesome! Okay, you're turn.

Sorry if it's not much.

I'm 17. Emo. Hate my first name. I live in Florida. My favourite colours are black and purple. Gay. Male.

You live in Florida?!

Yu-huh

We might know eachother!

doubt it. I have 1 friend and I don't recognise anyone called Roman.

Oh okay. What's you're name? You said you hate it.

Promise not to make fun of it?

Cross my heart.

Virgil?

That's you're name? I like it, it's unique and doesn't it come from the Roman times?

How do you know that? Or is that some sort of pun to your name.

I had a history lesson on it last term. Also yes. Yes it is.

My friend will love you.

Cause of my knowledge or the pun?

Pun. defiantly the pun.

That's good to know. Anyway, I gtg. Bye Angsty-boy.

Bye?

Logan! I did that astetsitbks thing you were talking about!

Aesthetics?

Yes. That thing.

Yeah... dude, this isn't 'Logan'.

OMG! Virgil! I am so sorry!

Dude, I can't stop laughing and people are starting to look at me.

:( I'm so sorry.

Are you though? knowing i get to see that pretty face.

You think I'm pretty?

Well now that I've seen your face, I can defiantly picture you in a prince costume.

I have one!

What?! You're serious?

No kidding! I'm in theatre and they let me keep the Prince costume!

I have to see that.

I might have an old picture from the last show I had to wear it.

You don't have too. I haven't ... you haven't seen me and I don't do good in camera. So two...?

No. You wanna see me in a Prince costume, you shall get one.

(Image sent)

How are your eyes 2 different colours?

1. Lighting. 2. The age of the photo taken.

1. Wow, looking good. 2.I guess.

I'll text you in a bit, sugar-cube. I need to talk to 'Logan'. Or 'MR.GrammarNerd'.

Bye.

----///----

(Image sent)

Omg... you're beautiful...

Don't say that. I just thought I might as well make it even and I was messing around. You can't even see that much of me anyway.

No seriously! Wow.

Thanks?

You did the makeup to Jack from Nightmare before christmas?

Yeah... it was just an idea.

Well I love it! <3

Thanks. So we even now?

Yeah, we're even :)

----///----

Virgil?

Yeah? I'm kinda busy atm.

What are you up too? You're the first person who texted me back.

I'm going my homework. Also, that proves how many friends you have.

I'm friends with a lot of people, to many to count, but I only trust Logan, you and around 10 other people.

You trust me? Why?

I don't know, probably because you don't know me, you don't expect anything from me. If you get what I mean?

I do.

Also, why are you doing homework, shouldn't it be the summer holidays in like 3 days?

Don't you just hate science?

What the heck, 3 abs and 1 peck, when is it due?

I'm going to ignore that. due date is in 2 days.

I wish you luck and forgiveness.

How do you know when my school ends?

The fact that you are still doing homework when most schools are already off. And I most likely went to you're school. Is it fandore high?

I'm a little creeped out.

I'm not a stalker. I went to that school before I moved to California.

cool, so I could know you as one of those popular jerks from the year above. When you went to that school.

Yeah, I guess... pretty much...

I still have homework to do and my friend is coming over so if there is a sudden change in my mood, it's him

Good to know, pumpkin ;)

Pumpkin?

Please tell me you get the pun.

No.

The photo you sent me was Jack makeup.

You are so cringy.

Yet, you are still talking to me pumpkin.

grr.

----///----

Hey

Nice to meet you :) I'm Roman.

Omg! That little face!
:)

You sure are a bubbly little ray of sunshine.

Aww thanks kiddo

What's Virgil up to at the moment?

Homework

He's almost done so you can have my child back in a few minutes

You hurt him though, I'll break one of your limbs.

Geez... okay... :/

No one hurts my child.

I won't.

Good.

You're quite threatening for someone all cupcakes and rainbows.

Cupcakes and Rainbows!!!!
I love those!!

Of course you do.

hey.

Emo?

...yes. i am the emo.

Yay! I have storm cloud back!

stormcloud?

Yep. Your new nickname! And many more to come!

Yayy... so great.

Sarcasm is great on you.

So is darkness and evil.

If you say so Dr.Gloom.

You're to good at that. stop it.

Never. ;)

Oh hell. Satan save me.

No one can save you from me! Well other than me or yourself.

Okay so. I have to go back to the homework as Patton did his part, plus, Pat wants to talk to you again.

Okay. Have fun.

Hey it's Patton again! I just want to say the whole time you guys were texting Virgil was smiling!!

Aww, I bet that's cute.

He's still smiling!!!

(Image sent)

Oh no!!! he knows I took a picture!!! Abort!! Abort!!! I repeat!! Abort!!!!

Awww that pic is so cute.

Awww he'a blushing!!

@/////@ You told him?!

He's gonna see it either way

Oh okay, makes sense...

*__*

More faces!!

I have to go. Lovely talking to you both.

Bye!!

----///----

Can I call you?

Why?

Because I'm that bored I can't be bothered to text.

I mean I'm free... so I guess so... sorry if I sound weird though.

(Incoming call)
(Answered)

"Hey pumpkin."

"...Hey..."

"Oh my god... you sound like an angel..."

"Thanks...? Y-you too I guess..."

"So cute! Anyway, how are you?"

"I'm great... and you?"

"I'm feeling amazing. I can't believe I'm acually hearing your voice."

"You're so over-excited. I'm like really awkward."

"Omg! You're laugh!"

"I sound horrible. I don't understand why you're complimenting me. I'm so tired."

"Are you always tired? Cause it sounds good on you."

"...flirt..."

"Can you blame me, when I have you?"

"Yes. I can. I'm a horrible person. You piss me off? I will destroy your blood line."

"Feisty. Obviously like memes. And I'm guessing you have low self-esteem."

"....memes are amazing..."

"Do you watch vine?"

"Obvy."

"Good.

"I've seen most of them."

"*soft sigh*"

"What?"

"You're perfect."

"..."

"Awww, is my sugarcube speechless?"

"We barely know eachother, for all you know, I could be a phyco, torchered into brainless deeds. Or I could be hiding a criminal in my basement."

"The fact you said that, I doubt it."

"Or did I just sat that to get you to think that?"

"Again. Doubt it."

"*soft giggle*"

"*sigh*...Omg! Also, I'm coming down in 2 weeks..."

"R-Roman... Sorry... I-..."

"Heyy... no, don't be sorry. I'm not forcing you to meet me. I was only wondering if you wanted too. I understand, we've only been talking for a month."

"If... if we do meet... can we maybe do it like how normal people meet."

"What do you mean?"

"It might sound cliché..."

"-I love cliché."

"But like how people bump into eachother... I just... I feel like it would be awkward just waiting for eachother..."

"We can do that. So... just hope to bump into eachother when I'm down?"

"...yeah... I'm sorry if I-"

"Hey... you don't have to be sorry... I don't want you to feel uncomfortable."

----///----

Hey?

Is this Patton or emo?

Emo. Why?

You never text first and if you do it's straight to the point.

Oh...

You okay stormcloud?

I'm fine, hbu?

I'm good. Currently packing.

that's cool.

You seem distance.

I always am.

I mean you seem distant and you text me first which is saying something. Are you sure you're okay, V?

I'm fine, just a little down.

Want to talk about it?

No. I was kinda... was hoping? you could cheer me up with you're dramatic-ness.

I'm not saying this to be rude, but Patton should be better help since he knows you better than I.

That's the thing... he knows me too well that I don't want to upset him with my issue.

Okay. What do you want to talk about?

Anything that comes to mind.

Oof, I know! So I have this twin brother, I'll be staying with him and I'm not looking forwards to that part. He's mad.

1. you have a twin? 2.worse than you in wonderland?

Worse than me in Wonderland!

What's his name?

Remus.

I know someone called Remus. Me and him aren't friends tho.

It would be weird if your Remus is my Remus.

He's not 'my' Remus. never will be, never was.

Still be strange if they were the same person though.

Are you identical twins?

Partly. I obvy look like God's masterpeice but Remus looks like God gave up, made us identical, but gave him facial hair, pale skin, crazy eyes and like he crawled out a trash can. His eyes are slightly different, we smile different and he has an accent.

Different accent to your British American?

He could be french or something like that. Which makes sense. He went to Fance for a month with his Friend who I don't know the name of.

....... He could sound like a cowboy.........

Hiya Woody.

There's a snake in my butt.

I thought it was boot :)

Oh it is... just a refrence to my brother.

omfg.... our Remus could be the same person. I'm only going by that saying so i might be wrong.

Wow... what a small world...

I really do hope to see you.

....same... I just don't want to be awkward.

----///----

Soo...

What?

I'm in town...

No way! Really?

You're earlier than I expected.

I know! But I'm glad. More chance of seeing you Pumpkin.

I'll make sure not to be a cozy coach burrito then.

Double the chance of seeing me.

You don't have too but yay!

The mall?

What about it?

I'm there tomorrow for most of the day with Patton.

I'll be sure to be there. Bump into you at Hot topic.

You hot topic.

Aww you think I'm hot.

Well, I'm going off of 1 or 2 pictures and a few video calls.

I did not expect that answer but you are a flirt so it makes sense.

All for you Sugarcube.

:p

So... see you tomorrow?

hopefully.

Bye princey.

Bye Hot Topic.

----///----

Roman's POV:

I looked down at random messages we had with a smile, my face feeling like it was flushing. He has this power over me that made me fall head first into a trance.

"What you smilling at?!"

I turn my phone off quickly and stuff it into my pocket as I look at my brother.

"Messages."

"From?!"

"His boyfriend no doubt." Logan stated with a smirk. He insisted he came to make sure me and Remus didn't get into any trouble like the last time I was down.

===flashback===
"Got everything?"

"Yep!"

Suddenly the alarms went off and my brother started running like a mad man, making me chase after him in fear I might get caught from how identical we acually looked that day and the fact he was my brother and I didn't want him in trouble for stealing.

"WHAT DID YOU DO?!?!?!"

===flashback over===
Hopefully Virgil doesn't know about that from Remus if they are the same person...

"We're not dating!"

"Who's got a boyfriend?" Thomas. One of my best friends from when I lived down here. I'm starting to think to move back. Why not?

"Not me." I smile and everyone laughs.

"When we meeting him?"

"I'm not sure when. I'm hoping today."

We split up and wander around the mall for a while before I saw him. His purple bangs over one eye and dark clothing. Patton was obviously with him but i wasn't expecting them to be complete opposites in fashion. Just wow. They wandered into Hot topic and I pratically dragged Logan with me.

"Why are we here?"

"Well... Disney... and I saw him in here."

Logan smiled and stepped into the shop. No matter how bad he thought online friends meeting up was, he supported me and that ment a lot from him.

"Remus is in here."

I look at where Logan was looking to see my brother talking to an emo. Not any emo, my emo. Remus seemed to be smirking while Virgil looked like he wanted to murder him. Who doesn't.

"That's him!"

"The emo or the bright blue next to him?"

"The emo." I smile and make my way over, ignoring my flustered face.

"Remus. Leave them alone."

They turned towards me and Virgil gasped, a smile slowly making it's way onto his face, but he made it so only I could see.
"

Sorry about my brother. He's hard work."

"Oh I know."

"I'm Roman." I held my hand out as -who I'm guessing is Patton-'s mouth fell open. He took my hand with a bigger smile, but shock filled his eyes as I placed a gental kiss on the back of his hand.

"I-... Virgil."

We stay like that for a while just smilling back at eachother. Patton and Logan had wondered around the shop talking as Remus stood to the side of us look at us intensely, not that I really care about that. That was until he looked like something clicked inside of him.

"Oh my god! Is this your boyfriend?!"

"Not my boyfriend." I glare at him before turning back to a rosy cheek Virgil.

Virgil seemed to stutter at Remus' comment before deciding to not speak.

"Well Hot Topic?"

"Aww you think I'm hot."

"Well now I've seen you in person, damn you are."

"You're such a flirt."

"Only for you, sugarcube."

He blushed with a smile as he bit his lip and I fell for him harder than before.

"You're so small, i just want to hug you." I purred and leaned a little closer to tease him.

"I'm not that short!"

"Do I get that hug though?"

"No. You called me short."

I pouted which caused him to giggle. He stood up on his tip toes and wrapped his arms around me, I picked him up and span us in a circle before putting him back down. We didn't move from the hug though. Not until he let go after whispering in my ear.

"I can't believe you're acually here."

My heart fluttered as I looked into his brown eyes. They showed so much emotion. If only video calls could show his eyes in such a way.

----///----

"Stay with me?"

"Are you sure? I mean... you were the one uns--"

We were seated outside the mall in this park as we ate icecream that I brought us... the ice cream was long gone now. We were just enjoying being in eachothers presence. It was calming in a way.

"I know... I just... don't want you to go. I don't want it to feel like you came one day... and left the day after. Plus, you said you didn't like the idea of being around you're brother too much."

I giggled and rested my head on his shoulder.

"I would like that... if you're sure."

"Yeah. I have a guest room and if not, we can share my bed."

I gasp and look at him with a teasing voice and flirty eyes.

"Virgil~"

He blushed and covered his face with his hands.

"Not like that. Like a childish sleepover."

"I know. I was only messing with you~"

He flustered and hit my arm.

"I hate you right now."

"I can leave."

"Noo..." He linked our arms and rested his head on my shoulder, pulling me back onto the seat. I was loving the affection. It was adorable coming from him.

In all our texting, I wasn't expecting him to be this bright. If that's the right word. My doom and gloom wasn't as dark as I thought. It was a mask to protect himself. Like how my flirting is a mask of my true feelings towards people.

Patton and Logan quickly became friends and they're now walking around the mall together. I wasn't expecting them to get on so well really.

We enjoyed the setting, together. My sugarcube on my side with his head on my shoulder. I wish this could last forever.

----///----

I had brought my bags over to Virgil's and we cuddled up on the sofa watching the new Dumbo. Which he hadn't seen yet!! Like what?! But he did end up crying at parts. Lucky only a few tears so it was fine.

The movie ended and I turned to Virgil who was curled up on my chest. He said it was a better way too hide his tears from me.

"So... what do you think?"

"Fly Dumbo... fly..."

"It had a happy ending."

"What about the rest of it."

I chuckled and moved him so I was carrying him bridal style. He gasped as i stood up and walked out the room.

"You're so light."

"Sure I am. Where are you going?"

"You're room."

I walked towards his door and he opened the handle and pushed the door open to let us in. I placed him on the bed with a chuckle. He crossed his legs and slouched into a comfy position as I fall onto my back next to him and cover my eyes with my arm. I left a small gap to see him as he turns to me with a small smile.

"Well cutie, what's the plan?"

"Well... depends. Are we gonna stay up late doing what normal people do and act like children at a sleepover or are we acually going to sleep, you being in the guest room?"

I shifted and sat up, looking at the emo. Pouting my lips and making my eyes wide like how a puppy would.
"Can i pwease stay with you~?"

Virgil smiled at me before wrapping one arm around my waist and pushing us down into a laying position, cuddling. He rested his head on my chest, arm still around me. I placed my arm around his shoulder and pulled him a little closer, resting my head back against the bedsheets and pillows. I love this. He closed his eyes and relaxed into me, listening to my heart rate which must have been going pretty fast.

Oh god... I might be crushing... well I already knew that but... I'm crushing hard.

"Your heart rate is pretty fast. Are you okay?"

He didn't move from his position, obviously too comfy to move.

"I'm great. I've finally met you in person and you're amazing! How is Patton your only friend before me?"

"I just don't like people so I try to avoid them?"

I chuckled and placed a delicate kiss on his hair. He didn't move other than to tense up. He shifted so he was looking up at me. His eyes are so magnificent I could get lost in them.

"What was that for?"

"Sorry... I just got a little carried away-"

"It's fine. I just didn't expect it."

We stayed like that for a while. Looking at eachother. I knew my eyes had flickered to his lips once or twice, but the last time I did, my eyes watched as they parted slightly and the way the left side of his lip twitched up into a smile.

"You're staring."

"Sorry. How can I not?" I brought back my confident and flirty manner as he giggled.

We fell into a comfortable silence yet again. It was just like before, but my eyes flicked to his lips a lot more. Damn. I wanted those lips on mine.

He shifted. He moved his arm from my waist to my chest. His legs intwining with mine and he was closer to me now. Our breaths mixing together. He tilted his head to the side and lent closer, our lips connecting and fireworks flew. I kissed back immediately and our lips moved in sync. He pulled back in shocked. He sat up and moved to the end of the bed. I sat up confused.

"Virgi-"

"I'm sorry! I probably just ruined our friendship. I should have asked for consent! I'm so sorry..." He covered his face with his hands and I moved forwards. I brought his hands down and gave a reassuring smile.

"Hey... do you think I would have kissed back if I didn't want that, maybe even twice as bad!"

He looked down with a blush and an idea struck me.

"Now... are we gonna watch a movie and talk about who knows what... or... are we gonna kiss again?"

He looked up with a smile.

"I like the second option..."

I smiled and connected our lips once again. He cupped my face as I lowered his down underneath me.

Let's just say it was an innocent make-out with one or two hickeys ending with us curled up under the sheets watching Cinderella because why not.

'So this is love'

(Hey Demons. That is the right movie right? I can't remember if that last line was from Cinderella or Sleeping Beauty. Anyway. Sorry for the long wait. This took me a while and I've been a bit busy.)
