Roman and Illusion sat on the edge of the roof, staring out into the lights of the city.
Their city.
Finally, Roman spoke. "Look, Illy-"
"Is this about the kiss?" he asked smoothly.
Roman blinked. "Yeah, I- I wasn't thinking, and I didn't know you and Virgil...I'm sorry, okay?"
"Please do not apologize," he said smiling slightly. "I understand." His smile fell slightly and he glanced away. "I hope everything is alright between you and Janus?" he said quietly. "I hate to think that you two would have gone your separate ways due to a mistake on my behalf."
"No, no, we...talked it out," he said, shaking his head. "And what do you mean when you said you made a mistake?"
"Ah...I..." He trailed off, smile disappearing entirely. "Do not worry about that, Roman. I am a trick of the light." His dark eyes settled on the man as he stood up. "You should not be forced to worry about my mistakes."
Roman scrambled too his feet as Illusion began to walk off. "Wait," he called, making him stop and turn. "Tell me who you are," he said quietly. "What have you done, what do you enjoy?" He took a few steps closer. "Who are you really?"
Illusion simply smiled that beautiful smile. "I am yours," he said softly, "and nothing more."
And then he was gone.
