Roman's POV

     I headed back to my room, slamming my door behind me. "Why did I do that...? He didn't do anything to deserve that...god, why am I so stupid?!" I was yelling at myself, I felt so stupid for what I had just done. I threw myself on my bed, burying myself in my blankets. I felt a few tears slip down my cheek and drip onto the blankets. I hate this...everything about it. I don't like what I did. I just want to hold him in my arms and tell him that I'm sorry and that it would be okay...but after that...I don't think he'll ever forgive me.

     I felt more tears fall onto the blanket. This is my punishment for saying all those things about him before we were friends. I heard something coming from the room directly next to mine. Crying...not crying, sobbing. Broken sobs. I felt more tears more creep up on me, leaving nothing but sadness in my heart. I let out a sob before breaking down in tears, feeling nothing but stupid for what I had done, the pain I had caused him, the sadness in his heart...I felt more tears fall from my eyes.

     I buried myself deeper into my blankets, letting out everything. I poured out my heart in those blankets, leaving them dripping with sadness. I felt my eyes grow heavier and heavier, tears still pouring from my eyes. I cried myself to sleep, my sleep being plagued with nightmares.

timeskip,

     Light streamed through my room, leaving no darkness behind. I buried my head in my pillows, hoping that whoever was there would leave. "Wakey wakey, Princey~" A voice fully woke me up, leaving no sleepiness. "What is it?" I asked, trying desperately to hide the tear stains on my face. "Well-woah, what happened to you?" Missy asked, his once playful expression replaced with one with concern. "...I-" I cut myself off, remembering their promise. "It's nothing...." I lied through my teeth. "okay..." Missy mumbled. "Anyways, Patton told me to wake you.." Missy said. "Pranks is going to wake up Anxiety..." I felt a wave of guilt wash over me. "Hey, Miss, the door's locked and he ain't responding." Pranks said, peeping through the door. "Oh...maybe he..." Missy started. "You know, we shouldn't worry too much about it. He does this sometimes...maybe he just needs some time to think..."

      I got up out out of my blankets and stood up. "Hey, Roman, you look like crap, you okay?" Pranks asked. "I'm fine...just not one of my best days, okay?" I said, walking out of my room. I saw Patton and Logan sitting at the counter, talking and eating breakfast. "I don't think he'll be out of his room anytime soon..." "You're correct, but if he doesn't come out within two weeks, we'll have to force him out." "Yeah, but we can't! He needs time to get over things and put himself back together! Breakups are hard, Logan..." I could only catch that much of the conversation. "Morning..." I mumbled, sitting myself down at the counter. "Hi, Roman. How are you feeling?" Logan asked. "I feel like dying..." I mumbled. I felt a hand being placed on my shoulder. "It's gonna be okay, Roman. You both said some things you didn't mean. He'll come around, you just have to give him time. All things heal with time." Patton said, a small reassuring smile on his face.

     "But what if he doesn't? What if I've ruined everything? What if he doesn't love me anymore? What if-" Logan put his hand over my mouth. "Roman, you need to stop fighting. All couples fight, this is normal, and they, usually, end up forgiving each other and pursue the rest of their relationship." Logan stated, mumbling certain things. "I promise you, kiddo. He still loves you. What he thinks, though, is that you don't love him." Patton said. "But I do! I just...I just need him to know that..." I mumbled. "I know you do...just give him time, it'll be okay."  Logan said, both of them encasing me in a hug. I felt tears well up in my eyes, wiping them off instantly. A prince is supposed to be strong, not weak...They pulled away from the hug, each a small smile one their face. "It's gonna be okay..." Patton assured me. "Thanks..." I mumbled. "I really needed that..." "It's no problem, kiddo." Patton said, giving me another hug before quickly pulling away.

     I grabbed a bowl of cereal and plopped myself back down at the counter. Patton and Logan returned to their conversation, leaving me alone with my thoughts. I never liked fights, especially with Anxiety. He was always my little ray of sunshine, despite being so gloomy and depressing. He's-

     "ROMAN!" Pranks burst in the kitchen, a look of rage on his face. "Pranks! Calm down!" Missy shouted, restraining the raging trait. "I'M GOING TO KILL YOU, ROMAN!" Pranks shouted, being pulled farther and farther away from us. "Pranks! Calm down! It's o-!" Missy lost his grip on him, sending him flying towards us. He pulled me up by the collar, holding me close to his face. "You'd better stay close to them, cause if I find you alone, it will not be pretty." He whispered, before dropping me onto the floor. Missy grabbed Pranks by the hand and dragged him back into their room. "Uh...w-what was that about...?" Logan stuttered. "...I...I don't know..." I lied again. I don't like to lie, but I do it when I have to. I guess this time I didn't really have to...but I did. I stood myself up from the floor and turned back to my cereal. I really don't know why I said that...I didn't have to. God, I knew my overly confident and dramatic self would get me in trouble eventually...
