When Virgil's eyes glanced upon Dean his mind went into the same place where Loki's mind went when he was Hulk in Thor Ragnarok. I need to get off this planet. He needed to leave. Right. Now.

While his mind was drifting away Dean approached.

D: "What's up Roman. Anxiety."

Well I could say Virgil was surprised by being even greated but I'd be lying. He knew exactly what is Dean doing. He's acting nice because he wants Roman to trust him he never did anything wrong.

R: "Hi Dean! Long time no see!"

Roman got up to hug Dean. In that moment Virgil grabbed his stuff and turned to go away.

R: "Wait Virgil! Where are you going?"

V: "Anywhere..." He said as his voice cracked. He started to walk away fast. Fast but not enough for it to be running before he left the glass door. He paused for moment. Looked over his shoulder at Roman and Dean. Than he looked in front of him at the shy trying to stop the tears in his eyes.

He thought he'll never see that guy again. And now? Not only was Dean his new classmate. He was Roman's best friend... After that second he looked at the sky he looked at the floor letting few tears get out of his eyes and started to run away.

He was still feeling really bad from that panic attack. He didn't tell Roman because he didn't want him to worry. He called aunt Angela that he is feeling really bad. She told him to come home. So he did.

Virgil came home and rushed into his room. He threw his backpack next to his desk and curled up in a ball on his bed. He was breathing fast but he was reminding himself that he's save there. Everything will get sorted out. He hugged his pillow with all his strength and screamed into it.

He than remembered. He was supposed to meet Roman after school. Get had... 6 hours. He needed to calm down before that. And get himself prepared for the best and the worst. If he'll see Dean there. He'll run as if his life depended on it.

He fell asleep till lunch. Angela came to wake him up.

A: "Darling. Virgil. Lunch is ready."

Virgil turned to her and opened his sleepy eyes. They had the Loki-Friga son-mother relationship even though he calls her aunt.

V: "Yes auntie..." He crawled from beneath his blanket not remembering what actually happened that morning. Before he remembered what happened he was sitting at the table eating spaghetti. (Author note: why did I remembered unsolved Shane and Ryan asking ghost box if there was anyone before the house was built and the ghost box responded: spaghetti? XD that was hilarious. XD okay back to story)
He loved Angela's spaghetti. He remembered that smile on Dean's face when he saw Virgil next to Roman. He felt like he's going to throw up. He was discussed by Dean. He called him Deceit. As a nickname. He was scared a bit by what is Dean going to do to him but he was TERRIFIED by what Dean's going to do to Patton...

So he decided to do the one thing that always helped him to calm down from panic. Get sad. Like really sad. So after he ate the spaghetti he got some money and went out. Walking down that old path he knew so well after walking it every 14th day of each month. He stopped to buy flowers.

Than he entered the cemetery. He walked to the very end of the main path. Took the first one to the right and stopped in the middle, turned his body to face two graves...

He placed the flowers he bought on the graves, sat down on the ground and started to get lost in his thoughts. He listened to the song Words on repeat.

Always in the rush. Never stayed on the phone long enough. Why? I'm I so self-important?

He sat for some time before he recitated some words from the song.

"I can't take back... The words I've never said..."

He got up looked at the graves of his parents, nodded at them and left. Walking home he went to the shop and bought some sweets, pringles and dr. Pepper. He than took some bubblegum with melon flavour. Than he went home. He sat at the table in his room watching Markiplier play until dawn.

It was time for him to go to the theater room. He left the house without his eyeshadow so if he'd cry the would have one thing less to care about. He changed his white t-shirt with short sleeves to a black with long sleeves.

He was lost in his thoughts when he walked into Patton. Patton of course seen him comming so he opened his arms to hug him. So now Patton was hugging confused Virgil.

P: "Where were you?"

V: "Panic attack, miserable, home, graves, shop, home."

P: "Panic attack? What happened?"

V: "I'd rather talk about it later..."

P: "Alright then. Good luck."

V: "Good... Luck?"

P: "On you date with Roman."

V: "D-Date?! No it's just friendly hang out..."

P: "Suuuuurrrreee."

Virgil blushed as he waved goodbye to Patton. It's not like he's going on a date, right? He opened his blog as people were spamming with things like

'Roman's a Prince. Your nickname is Anxiety. Prinxiety!'

'OUR SON GOT A DATE!'

'I ship it. So. Fu*king. Much.'

'Can we all just appreciate how gay the world can be?'

V: "It's not a date guys! We just met! It is more likely hang out. Maybe he... Talked to Dean? Sorry I wasn't active almost whole day."

'No problem darling.'

'Oh don't you sweat it.'

'It's okay.'

He was now standing in front of the place. He had 15 minutes before lessons are all over but this room wasn't used for 2 hours now so he walked in. The empty space all around him made him feel at peace. He walked all around the place exploring it. He end up on the stage with lights turned off. He imagined his dreams comming true. The stage, people all around chanting his name and he in the middle of the spotlight not feeling alone, being able to sing his heart out.

He remembered the song Once upon a December and as he began to sing he danced all around the stage. He started to get filled with happiness from the lie he created. What a glorious performance. He end up in the middle of stage bowing. He heard clapping from the direction of doors.

He shot his gaze to that sound. Roman was smiling at the door and clapping. Virgil felt so embarrassed. Roman started to walk to Virgil who was panting a bit now. Roman walked on the stage spinning Virgil around.

R: "No need to be embarrassed. I'm doing the same everyday."

He laughed. Virgil giggled. They sat down. Talking, laughing then Roman said.

R: "I talked to Dean."

V: "..."

R: "I told him that if he is going to be mean to you I will stop him."

V: "... Thank you. That means a lot... I'd rather never see him again. But if I have to... It will be really better if I have someone on my side..."

R: "No problem. I would never let anyone to hurt my friends. Not even Dean."

V: "I don't even deserve a friend like you."

R: "Don't say that. You more than deserve friends and happiness."

Virgil blushed a bit. They both lied down on the stage still talking.

V: "Your the best guy I met in a long time... Excluding Patton."

R: "Oh I'm fluttered."

V: "I don't really talk to people much. You are a VIP."

R: "Oh don't you sweat it darling. Why won't we go to a coffee shop or something?"

V: "Yeah why not. I didn't have coffee whole day."

R: "We might get a coffee there. But I know about place where they have the best hot chocolate and flavoured milk."

V: "I live for the coconut flavoured milk and hot chocolate."

R: "I was right! I knew you like sweet stuff."

V: "How did you know?"

R: "You seemed like the type that eats sweets or bubblegum when is nervous."

V: "Yep. Your right... I live for watermelon bubblegum."

R: "Watermelon is my favorite!"

Roman got up and offered Virgil his hand to get up which he gladly accepted. When Virgil got up his hoodie slipped from one of his shoulders. Roman carefully took the edge that slipped down and dragged it up.

R: "Well let's go!"

Roman said grabbing Virgil's hand making him blush madly. Roman got ahold of Virgil's walking speed in no time so they were walking slowly, talking, still holding hands... Before Roman let go of Virgil's hand searching in his backpack for his wallet. They got to a small coffee shop and found a table outside. They were thinking for a while what will they drink.

V: "Ice coffee?"

R: "Ice coffee."

Roman waved at the waiter to come over. The waitress came and introduced himself.

"Hi. I'm Emile and I'm your waiter. What would you like to order?"

R: "Hi Emile long time no see. 2 ice coffees please."

E: "No problem Ro. Who is this sweetheart with you?"

R: "This is Virgil. Virgil this is Emile my friend. He's going to be the best therapist in the world."

E: "Oh you. Nice to meet you Virgil."

V: "N-Nice to meet you too..."

E: "Excuse me guys. I'll get your coffee prepared for you. Wait do you want vanilla ice cream instead or few ice cubes?"

R: "You know I live for that."

V: "It won't kill me if I try..."

E: "Amazing. Well see you in a minute."

And as that he went back in the coffee shop.

R: "So... What's your favourite food?"

V: "I guess you won't count sweets, bubblegum and instant doodles as food will ya?"

R: "No. Normal food."

Romn laughed.

V: "Well... Cheese pizza and waffles? I can't decide."

R: "Good choice."

V: "How about you?"

R: "Mc&Cheese."

V: "Wha- Well I didn't see that comming."

R: "What do you mean?"

V: "Gotta say... I thought you'll say something fancy I never heard of. You seem like a prince out of this world."

R: "I had that all my life-"

V: "And you got sick of it."

R: "Yes how do you know?"

V: "Prince who have only wish to cut if his boundaries with his royal family and life a normal life, falling in love with these most common normal food. You wish to be free from that golden cage."

R: "Waw... How do you..."

V: "My head is so broken so it's easy to say how broken are other around me."

R: "Makes sense to me."

V: "Do you have a favorite fast food?"

R: "Wendy's? I guess?"

V: "KFC for me."

(Author note: we don't have Wendy's in my country so I have no idea what they serve there XD I was actually thinking that it would be funny if Roman as a Price said Burger King but it end up as Wendy's. Can you tell me what food they sell there?)

R: "That's good too."

V: "I like it. Patton thinks my mouth is made out of steel or something. He doesn't like spicy food."

They both chuckled. Emile was coming back with their drinks. He placed them on their table.

E: "Enjoy."

"Thanks!" They both said. As they dived deeper into their conversation while enjoying their coffee.

I'm adding illustrations to older chapters so you can check them out. I will add today crying Roman and Roman hugging Virgil. OwO
