Chapter 16 (Roman's POV)

Tonight seemed much more interesting in my head. I'm not sure why tho. For some reason, I thought that Patton and I would have a great time making these weaters, I thought that it'll go all perfectly, I thought-

I sighed, and went to look for another colour. I was currently working on Virgil's sweater, and, honestly, it was going to kill me. The pattern was too complicated for someone so un-experienced as me, there where too many colours and changes, the design had too many details. I looked to my right to see how Patton was going. He had much more skill than I did, that was for sure. He was already half way throught the torso of Logan's sweater, while I hadn't even finished a quater of Virgil's. 

I felt tired. Very, very tired. It wasn't even justified, I just felt like this without a reason. It was stupid to feel tired this early. The only thing that I've been doing is knit and watch the film. I shook my head and forced myself to focus on the sweater again. I had to finish it. It had to be perfect. If it wasn't, then it'll mean that I'm a failiure. I have to prove that I'm worthy. I have to.

"Alright, I think I'm done!" Patton exclaimed, triumphaly showing me the front part of Logan's sweater.

"Oh- oh, wow!" I faked a smile, trying to show happiness and exitement for my friend, He had already finished the front of Logan's sweater, and it was surprisingly well done. He had managed to copy the design with incredible acuracy down to the sweater, and at first sight I coudn't see any mistakes on the kniting, "How... fast."

"Well, we've been working for almost 4 hours now, Roman," Patton replied, "It's not that much."

"Uh..." I looked down at my work. I had varely gotten half way down Virgil's sweater, and my struggles felt nothing compared to my friend's work, "I just think that you are doing great Patton. You have a talent for this."

"Thanks!" Patton exclaimed, "I think it's time for us to order dinner, don't you think?"

"Yeah, I guess you are right..." I mumbled, grabbing my needles again

"How about pizza?" Patton sugested, already taking his phone out, "I think we should have pizza."

"Sure, pizza, why not,"

"What would you like for the toppings?" 

"I don't care Patt, whatever you like is ok," I replied, trying to get my brain to focus on my work so i could finish Virgil's front part.

"Alright!" Patton dialed the number on his phone, and walked towards the kitchen so that the noise from the tv wouldn't bother him.

"Finally!" I exclaimed, looking proudly at the front part of the sweater, "After 7 hours of hard work, I finished!"

"huh?" Patton moved beside me. I turned to my right to look at my pal. Patton's eyes where half closed, in a sleeping manner, he was laying a bit his side, resting his head on the sofa

"Oh, Patton, you where asleep? I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to-" my words rushed off my mouth as I apologiced, but Patton made me a sign with his finger to indicate me to stop.

"Don't worry about it Ro," He yawned, as he streched himself, "It's ok, it's just that I sometimes get very tired very fast and I fall asleep without realicing it. I'm glad you woke me up, I shouldn't be sleeping in here..."

"Ah, ok, uh- still, I'm sorry, I didn't want to bother," I insisted, feeling incredibly guilty for disturbing my friend's sleep. Virgil had already told me how Patton wasn't the best when it came to sleeping, how he some days barely did, so being the one who stopped him from resting felt wrong.
