TW:  minor Self deprecating thoughts

********TWO WEEKS AFTER :THE CALM******

STORYMODE AGAIN!!!

Virgil sat with his back propped against his wall on the floor fidgeting with his hoodie strings. He was distraught with guilt and indecisiveness. Thomas earlier that morning had turned down being on a panel for one of the annual conventions. He had been wanting a panel for ages at this convention but he turned it down due to his fear of disappointing everyone who was their or the possibility that he might not have an answer to a question.  

Virgil had been doing well with balancing all of the thoughts and worries but he felt bad knowing that him doing that was the reason that Thomas wouldn't be on that panel. He wanted to just take enough so that Thomas would be able to do the things he wanted to but Logan kept stressing the importance of balance. So Virgil sat unfocused on anything except his dilemma. He wanted to help Thomas, but helping Thomas would make Logan and Thomas mad at him for not keeping the balance. He continued to stress over this until he realized as long as Logan and Thomas didn't catch on he could keep the worries away from Thomas easily. He also knew where new foundation that he had ordered was which was way whiter than his normal foundation so if he got sick and pale he could hide it with the makeup excuse. 

So, that's what Virgil did, he took away Thomas's worries a little bit more every day ,and although he got sicker, he had the knowledge of make-up to cover it up. 

***3 days later*****

Thomas had been feeling extremely less worried each day, and although he wanted to trust Virgil had nothing to do with that he knew he probably did.  Before he confronted Virgil he texted Logan first.

Private Chat

Thomas: Have you seen Virgil?

Logan: Not since lunch yesterday. Why?

Thomas: I feel a lot less worried than I have been since the transfer.

Logan: Do you want to check on him?

Thomas: Ya.

Logan added Virgil to the chat

Virgil: what?

Thomas: Are you okay?

Virgil: Ya why?

Thomas: I don't feel very worried.

Virgil: You probably just don't have anything to worry about right now

Logan: Have you been keeping the balance?

Virgil: Ya

Logan: Mind if I come over to make sure you aren't sick

Virgil: Na, you can come over I guess

Logan: Alright I'll be there in a minute

Virgil: K

Logan removed Virgil from the chat

Logan: I'll go check and make sure he's okay.

Thomas: Ok thanks

Logan: No problem

Logan popped into Virgil's room where he saw Virgil sitting on the bed with his phone

Logan: Salutaions

Virgil: hey

Logan: You look paler.

Virgil: I hope so. I got this new foundation which is a lot paler than my last one want to see it?

Logan: Sure.

Virgil got up and went to his dresser where he opened the top drawer. Logan walked over to him and looked in. He saw Virgil's makeup which had eye shadow, eyeliner, foundation, and other products. Virgil picked up a container and opened it. The white foundation was indeed whiter than Virgil had ever worn. Logan nodded and Virgil put it away then went and sat back down on his bed.

Virgil: Anything else Detective Sherlock?

Logan: No, umm thanks.

Virgil: No problem.

Virgil went back to playing on his phone while Logan sunk out.

Private Chat

Logan: He seems fine. 

Thomas: He's not extra pale or anything?

Logan: He is paler but he showed me his new foundation he got which is much paler than his normal foundation.

Thomas: Ok good.

Thomas: So I'm just not feeling worried?

Logan: At the moment that is what it looks like.

Thomas: Ok thanks.

********

After Logan left Virgil let out a deep breath he hadn't realized he was holding. His plan worked and hopefully would continue to.

Will Virgil get caught? Will Logan and Thomas remain oblivious? Will Virgil go to far?

The world may never know..
