Chapter 62: Aftermath


          Logan's POV

     I stood outside of the room, trying my best to keep calm. Please be okay, please be okay. Thoughts rushed back and forth through my head.

     It had been almost five minutes since the scream, and what I assume death, and Roman still hadn't returned. I decided it was a little too long since I had heard anything and silently opened up the door.

     I peaked my head around. There he was, lying on the ground, covered in scrapes and bruises. I rushed over to him, scooping him up gently in my arms. God, he is heavy, how much does he weigh? Never mind that, he's hurt, badly.

      I rushed out of the room and over to his. This might do something...make him feel more comfortable, perhaps? I lied him down on his bed. Virgil!

     I rushed out of his room and over to Virgil's. He was collapsed in Patton's arms, tear streaks staining his face and red staining his arms. Patton was sobbing, it was obvious that he wasn't trying to wake the-who I'm assuming was passed out-boy. Missy and Pranks were both surrounding him.

     "Patton..." I mumbled. I drew his attention, luckily. He tried to wipe his tears. I rushed over to his side. I encased him in a hug, being careful of the sleeping figure right under me. I grabbed Virgil lightly from his arms and set him on his bed.

     "I...I couldn't s-stop him..." He muttered. "I-I couldn't...." I lightly grabbed his arms, only to realize the scars littering his arms. They weren't new, that's for sure, he was just scratching at his old ones.

     I rushed out of the room and quickly returned with a First-Aid Kit. I tossed him a roll of bandages, him fumbling with it slightly before actually catching it. "Bandage his arms, I have to take care of Roman." I said, almost rushing out of the room. He lightly grabbed my hand, spinning me around to face him.

     "L-Logan..." He muttered, his eyes still glossed with tears. "Patton, I know that you're h--" He cut me off, lightly pressing his lips against mine. He pulled away not long after. "Missy, Pranks, go to your room, please." He said, his voice cracking slightly.

      Missy and Pranks silently exited the room, closing the door behind them. "Patton, you couldn't have done anything to stop him. I assume you didn't even know..." I muttered. "But that's the point! I didn't know! If I did, I would've been able to stop it!" He said.

    "Patton, c-calm down--" "No! I can't! Just knowing he hurt himself, right in front of me, it hurts! So much!" He cut me off, more tears flowing down his face. "Maybe he was right..." He sniffled. "I am the easiest one to replace..."

     I encased him in a tight hug. "Patton, don't ever say that. You are the hardest to replace out of all of us. You are the most amazing person in the entire world, honestly. I couldn't imagine why you'd ever think that about yourself..." I muttered. "B-But-" "But nothing! You're astounding, Patton...and I love you...so, so much..." I cut him off. He wiped his tears with his free hand and gave me a shy smile.

     "T-Thank you, Logan....I love you too..." He mumbled. "Now go help Roman!!" I rushed out of the room, gripping the First Aid Kit tightly in my hand. I stepped into his room, shutting the door tightly behind me.

     I silently got out the supplies needed, which was almost half of the small bag, and gently set them down next to him. Hmm, his shirt is really ripped up, I would have to remove it to actually clean and treat his cuts...

     I gently lifted him up slightly and removed his, almost, ripped sash and gold strap that sat on his shoulder. I set them down on a chair next to me and continued to attempt to not wake him. I removed his shirt and set it down next to the sash. A couple more scars and bruises then I had originally seen...

     I carefully cleaned his cuts and bandaged them where I could. These will take a while to heal...

          Patton's POV

     I sat next to Virgil on his bed. His arms were wrapped with bandages, a light red color staining certain places. God, I couldn't stop him. I just couldn't...I wiped off my tears. You shouldn't be crying, stop it, please. Stay strong for him, if not for yourself.

     I ran my fingers through my hair. I wiped my hand across my face, wiping off the tears that stained it. I glanced over at him, only to find him still asleep. God, so peaceful...I stood myself up from his bed.

     I spotted something-or somethings- on his floor. What the...? What is this? I got on one knee and picked up one of them. A...Are these pills...? I picked up the small bottle on the ground. "Blah blah blah, prescribed to Thomas Sanders, blah blah..." I read aloud, whispering to myself. "Anxiety pills..." My heart dropped to my stomach.

     H...He didn't want to......did he? I felt another tear slip down my cheek. No, no he didn't want to. He didn't, he was just scared! I...I know he wouldn't want to do something like that...I picked up the rest of the pills and put them back in the bottle and threw it away.

     I picked myself back up and walked over to Roman's room, where Logan would most likely still reside. I found the door slightly ajar and pushed it open slightly. There he was, sat on the edge of Roman's bed, treating his wounds.

     "Hey, Lo," I muttered. He spun his head around, a concerned expression plaguing his face. "Yes, Patton?" He asked softly. "I, um...I found those pills in Virgil's room...." I mumbled. "What? The anxiety pills? I thought he threw those out a while ago..." Logan said. "I thought he did too. I found them scattered on the ground...I-I think he tried to..."  I cut myself off. I couldn't say it, hardly think it.

     "I'm sure he was just intimidated, I-I don't think he would do something as stupid as that..." Logan stuttered, turning back to the injured prince. "I-I know, but--" "No buts, Patton. He wouldn't do something like that." Logan cut me off. "How's he doing, right now, anyways?" "Oh, he's still asleep..." I mumbled.

     "Oh that's good." He said. There was a small silence. "Well, I-I'm going back to his room..." I said, walking over to him. I kissed him on the cheek. "I love you." I mumbled. "I love you too..." He said, turning back to Roman.

     I exited the room, leaving the door slightly open. I sighed to myself. God...I can only pray things will get better....
