Ships~ Analogical and Octavian x Janus. I know I've added him in but my snake baby can't be lonely.

Catagory~ Angst with a little bit of Fluff

Warnings~ unsympathetic Patton, lots of cussing, mentions of abuse, and drowning.

Dear Virgil,
As you know, it's been one year since the split and I don't know how much longer I can hold on. Patton's getting more and more possessive everyday and Roman doesn't even seem affected by the fact that I'm getting fucking beaten! Like I tried to talk to him about Remus the other day and he looked at me like I was trying to eat a fucking dildo. He seemed disgusted when I described his own brother to him. He kept saying that I was lying and he would run and tell Patton. My throat hurts from the water. Oh did I not mention that? My punishment for being 'bad' is Patton basically trying to fucking drown me. It really hurts. I feel like I'm losing my fucking mind. Shit he's coming. I love you forever.

Logan💙

Logan swiftly shoved the letter into his wardrobe and sat at his desk pretending to do school work. Patton barged into his room and hovered beside him. He was silent. This wasn't good. Logan began to rub the back of his neck as he continued to stare at the open textbook.

"Logan~" Patton cooed while placing a hand on the small child's shoulder. Logan tensed up and just managed to surpress a gag as Patton pulled him up to his feet.
"Logan look at me sweetie." The logical side kept his head down, knowing where this was going to go.

Patton forcefully made Logan look up at him and a look of fear passed over said side's facial features. The oldest side cupped the younger side's face and rubbed it with his thumb over the newest bruise. He frowned slightly when Logan flinched away from him.

"Y'know I don't like hurting you right Logan?" Patton asked quietly as he picked up the small child. Logan simply nodded as he accepted his fate. Patton smiled as he locked the bathroom door. He turned on the taps and placed Logan into the tub.

Warning~drowning

When the bath was filled, Patton stroked Logan's cheek once more before tangling his hair in his hand. He looked into Logan's eyes before he forced his head under the water. He held him in place for 30 seconds and then let go of him. Logan yanked his head up and gasped for air as his throat and nose burned. Patton gave him a minute to calm down before he grabbed Logan's and looked at him fondly. He forced his head back under as he held there longer.

End

After about 15 dunks, Logan had stopped struggling and just started to take the punishment. This worried Patton slightly as the normal reaction to being forced underwater is to try and come back up. Yet Logan didn't move at all other than a slight flinch as he went under.

"Logan sweetie. Can you look at me please?" Patton cooed as he began to rub Logan's back, knowing that he had swallowed lots of water and that he would probably throw up soon after this. The logical side complied and looked to Patton with cold eyes which had no spark to them. The oldest side smiled slightly as he realised that he had finally broken the small boy. Now he could make him do anything.

Patton grabbed a towel and unplugged the bath. He picked Logan up and wrapped him in the towel. He carried the side and placed him on his desk chair as he went to his drawers to grab his onesie and a pair of boxers. He placed the clothes on the bed and set the logical side's glasses on top.
"I want you to get changed and sleep now Logie." he chirped as he walked towards the door. He turned around.
"Sweet dreams kiddo!~" he said in his usual cheery tone. He closed the door and locked it from the outside, preventing Logan from escaping.

As soon as he was left alone, Logan's spark returned. Patton had fallen for it. I guess his acting was pretty good. He scoffed at the owl onsie that lay before him and threw it back into the drawer. He proceeded to grab the letter and his unicorn onesie. He then changed and slipped on his shoes as he opened the window. He jumped and landed on the edge of the roof. He walked along carefully. He was almost down when he heard giggling coming from the room on his left side. The window was slightly open so being the curious child he was, he looked.

His heart clenched as he saw Patton reading stories to Roman. Roman was laughing. He was happy. Patton loved him more than Logan. Why didn't he love him? What did Logan do wrong? Scratch that. He didn't do anything wrong. It was all Patton's fault. They were happy just the way they were but then he had to go and ruin it. He resented Patton. He just wanted Romulus back. He wanted his stormcloud. He wanted his dad back.

Janus sat there at the dining table with his head in his hands. He had just managed to feed everyone and get the kids to bed. He was exhausted but he couldn't sleep. Everytime he closed his eyes, he saw Romulus screaming out as he begged and pleaded for Janus to stop. How he looked so hopeless before he split.

He had been surpressing his tears all day but now, he just let go. He cried as the tears poured out of his eyes. The only noises in the room were his ragged breaths, the tapping of his tears as they landed on the table and... humming? Janus lifted his head as he felt himself become drawn to the noise. It was so calming.

He walked into the living room and was immediately engulfed in a hug from his boyfriend. Despite being the shortest side, Octavian's heels made him taller than his snake boyfriend, making it easy for him to burry his face in his hair as Janus sobbed into his chest.

Octavian continued humming as he walked then both over to the couch. He slipped off his heels and pulled Janus onto his lap, taking off his hat, gloves, Cape and boots. Janus snuggled into the embrace and Pride played with the side's hair. Janus pressed his face into his dom's neck causing the man to smile.

"I'm here baby. Just try and go to sleep. I'll be here when you wake up." Octavian whispered quietly as he kissed Janus' forehead gently, causing the snake side to happily hiss. That's how they fell asleep. They fell asleep in each others arms.

Until there was a loud bang from upstairs of course.
