The Enemy in my head

Chapter 25

Trigger Warnings: Roman being emotional, still talking about Janus, talkin about feelings

A/N we are so close to finishing this book! This is the first fanfiction I could keep up for that long *squels*.

Anywho,

to the story:

Romans POV:

I always thought I knew what chaos was, since my brother is the IMBODIMENT of it. You would think, I could handle situation like this.

Well, I can't.

I actually just wanna cry right now. My own twin is gone, Janus is dead - heck, his corpse still lays in our bloody living room! - Virgil is dieing inside-

Oh no, Virgil.

Control yourself, Princey. This is the worst time to think of Virgil like that. He lost so darn much today and you can only think of romantic realationships and possible marriage? Control yourself, bloody h!ll.

I snapped out of it. I was right, Virgil didn't need me admitting my love to him right now. He needs his friend, his companian - he needs me. He needs us all. With those thoughts I created more fitting clothes for this kind of situation and went to his room.

"Strange.", i mumbled. I heared him shuffle around his room. What is he doing?

I knocked on the door. "Virgil?"

I heared him shuffle around again until he opened the door. He wore new clothes as well. I tried to ignore his scars, which were usually hidden by his hoodie. "You look different - A good kind of different of course! I mean, okay different-"

"I get it, princey.", Virgil blushed slightly. "You look good, too? I guess."

An Awkard silence followed.

"Well, anything else?", Virgil asked.

"Yes, actually. Look, I just wanted to- erm, you see-", What even did I want so say?

Oh, hey, Virgil! By the way, you are dying inside - want me to help you with inner fights? What are you even going through? You never trust me with your feelings!

"yes, Roman?"

"I just wanted you to know that I will be by your side and that you can count on me. Whatever you might be going through right now - I am ready to fight for you. You matter to us. You matter to me."

"Now, that's...new. Thanks.", Virgil actually grinned. My heart fluttered.

"I lo- CARE for you, too, I guess. Are you okay, Princey? You saw it just like me."

It broke Roman even more to know Virgil couldn't even mention Janus death and still cared.

"Virgil, nobody is okay after what happened. Maybe if we all would open up more, maybe our suffering would at least be less and maybe sooner gone."

"How are the others?"

"Well, Remus ran away, Logan is helping Patton, and I am with you."

"Tell them to suit up. I have a plan."

"Don't you think we should rest?", I asked.

"Paranoia didn't rest either, It's time for revenge.", Virgil said an dstood up taller, spreading those (still unexplained) beautifull wings.

Bonus:

"Virgil?"

"Yeah?"

"Why do you have wings? Not complaining - they are stuning."

"Thanks.", he blushed. "Every "Dark"-Side has an animal part as a mark to make us the "dangerous" part of a mind. You see, Remus has his Octupus, to show that he can be dangerous through his disgusting features like an Octopus with its tentacles. Janus was half snake half side as a refernce to "a two faced snake", to warn about his slimy lies.", Virgil fonded at the memory.

"And you?"

"Before I ran away I had spider features to show fear, but when I came to te light sides and finally got accepted my spider features changed to wings to show that I flew away of my old home and my past self. "
