If you see anything like this:
/"blah"/  it's a voice in the characters head.
Roman POV
It's the end of a long day and we finally get to go home. I'm waiting by the office door and I see Remus walking up talking to Remy.
"Hey Ro! Remys coming over to practice." He says with a smile.
He always smile when Remys around.
Not so much with me. He always seems stressed out.
/"You don't make him happy."/
"O-ok" I say with a nervous smile.
The voice is louder.
I try to ignore it.
"So how was your guys first day?" I say.
/"Your bothering them."/
"It was great actually. I got to hang out with Remy most of the day. And I got to show up that punk ass Derek at lunch." Remus says with a maniacal smile. I laugh nervously again at that last line. We start to walk home.
"Don't forget you got to spend the day with your boyfriend 'Janus~~~'" Remy says making fun of Remus. I chuckle a little.
"Duuuudddeee..!!!" Remus says face getting all red. He gets flustered real easily.
"Hey are they coming over today?" Remy asks raising his eyebrows at Remus.
"Uggh no, They had a 'meeting' or something to go to they said." I say to Remy.
"Aww that sucks. They could've heard us play." Remus says disappointed.
/"You disappointed them."/
"Sorry.." I say quietly looking at my hand.
"Don't apologize love. You can't control their calendars." Remy says putting his hand on my shoulder. He smiles at me softly. I slightly smile back.
/"He's lying. It's all your fault. You think he's your friend. He just hangs around you cause he's friends with your brother, NOT YOU."/
*RING RING*
I'm pulled out of my thoughts by my phone ringing. I dig my phone out of my pocket and look at the caller ID.
Fuck it's Alex. Alex is my manger of me and my modeling career. He's nice but he can be a dick.
I hit accept.
"Hello." I say with a sigh not wanting to talk to him right now.
"Roman! Baby! Darling!" How are ya!?" He yells.
"Fi-"
"That's great kid. So anyway, your mother needs you in 2 hours in Miami for a shoot. There's a car that's coming to pick you up at 6. Don't be late or else your mother will have your head and my job and how will you operate without such a fabulous manager." Alex says completely cutting me off and telling me what to do.
"What about-"
"The stuff you need to bring? I've just sent you a list of that. With pictures too! So your simple mind can understand it." He says with a sharp tone at the end.
"Ok what-"
"How much do you weigh now darling?" He asks out of the blue.
"Excuse me?" I say while my teeth grind a bit.
"Are you still at 110 or did you get back down to 85 like we talked about?" He says with no remorse for my privacy.
"I'm at 99 right now." I say sheepishly.
"Well that's an improvement from before. But by next gig you need to be down to 70." He says with venom in his voice.
/"Yeah fatty. Go vomit that soup when you get home and don't eat anything until the gig."/
"I-...ok." I say quietly.
"Great! I'll see you in 2 hours be ready." He hangs up and I put my phone in my pocket.
"Who was that?" Remus asks confused cause I don't usually get calls.
"My manager. I have a gig in Miami in 2 hours. I have to go home and pack."
"Really? Tonight?" He says and I look at him and sigh.
"Yeah. And since it's the new collection I'm not gonna get home til real late. So don't expect me for dinner." I say with a sigh.
Remy POV
I heard Roman speaking to his manager about his weight. Is that why he's so small and Remus isn't. I mean they are twins.
Roman is 5'6 with smaller stature and Remus is almost 6'2 with a very muscular physique.
Does he have a problem with his weight?
Time skip by me who's tired as all shit
Roman POV
I'm packed and ready. I have all the clothes and my special shoes on. They give me another 4 inches so I don't look that short. I'm 5'6 so they make a appear taller than I am. I grab my bag and my travel bag with my phone, headphones, wallet, and ticket.
I walk to the door and open it to see Janus and Virgil standing there.
"Uhh hi? Where are you headed?" Janus says confused getting out of my way.
"I have to work, I'll be back later. Make yourself at home." I say making my way down the driveway to the Uber my mom got me.
"O-ok!" Janus yells back confused. They both walk inside and I get in the car.
Remy POV
Roman just went downstairs to leave. We're watching a YouTube in Remus' room. He's busy looking at his phone. He's worried about Roman.
"Hey, mate? You ok?" I ask and he looks up from his phone and just shakes his head slightly.
"Alright. What's wrong?" I say getting up and walking towards him. I sit next to him on the bottom bunk.
"Something was off about Roman and I can't figure it out. It's like he was relaxed but also extremely nervous. It was weird." Remus explains.
"Yeah, like he wasn't happy to go but he had to be cause it's his job. I noticed that too." I say to him and he lays back.
"Do you think..." Remus starts to say but he thoughts cut him off.
"Do I think what Ree?" I ask trying to distract him from his head.
"Do you think he's Ok?" Remus asks in a whisper.
"Can I be honest?" I ask and he nods his head and rests his chin on his knees.
"No." I say looking at my hands. Remus' head shoots up and looks at me.
"What? W-What do you mean, No?!" Remus says sporadically looking up at me. He gets up so he can move a bit more.
"I feel like the Roman you knew when you left and the Roman now are two different people. Roman has a lot of problems that are overlooked in my opinion." I say looking at him. I can see tears well up in his eyes.
"What Problems?!" He yells at me. I get up and hug him. He holds me super tight trying to calm down.
"You need to breathe and take a seat." I say to him. He nods his head into my shoulder.
"Come on sit." He sits back on the bed and wipes his face of his tears and takes a breath.
*Knock knock*
"Come in!" Remus yells and the door opens slightly.
"Hey uhh, we texted Roman but he didn't answer. We passed him coming in but he seemed to be in a hurry. He just told us to come in. Sorry we didn't text..." Virgil just keeps on going.
"Virgil! It's ok! Come on in." Remus says with a laugh.
Both Virgil and Janus walks in.
Remus goes back to nothing being wrong. Like everything in the past 10 minutes didn't happen.
It's scary how well he's able to hide his emotions.
Is Roman the same?
Emile POV
I wanna die.
I don't wanna be here anymore.
I hate everything.
Why did he have to save me?!
Now I'm in maximum lockdown here, at school, even in my own mind!
"Arggghh" I say in frustration.
*knock knock*
"Go away!!" I yell and smash my face into my pillow.
"Emile sweetheart it's me. Can I come in?" My das calls from the other side of the door.
"Emile please it's important." My Dad calls out again.
"Fine." I say and my dad opens my door slowly and peeks his head in.
"Emile sweetheart can I talk to you?" Dad opened the door and said. I nod and he walks in the room and sits next to me.
"Emile, I know your not ok. Please, I know your upset but please, talk to me." Dad asks me in a gentle tone.
"You wanna know what's wrong?" I say lifting my head. A few tears roll down my face.
"I don't want to live!!! I wish I was taken out of this awful world!! The world sucks! I've known that since I came out and my mother and father didn't accept me and beat me every night!! Until they got tired of me and sent me to you!! WHY DID HE HAVE TO SAVE ME??!! WHY COULDNT HE HAVE LET ME DIE?!!!" I start to yell and stand up and pace. I'm furious with myself, the world, Remy, everyone!!
Suddenly I'm pulled into a warm embrace. It feels nice.
I look up and see my dad hugging me tightly while he as well is crying.
He hugs me and we both cry for awhile.
"I'm sorry baby. I wish I could give you my eyes so you can see you the way I see you. Your a very handsome young man. Your very smart and super artistic. Your a great kid. But yeah the world sucks sometimes, it's gonna suck a lot, but if you die your gonna miss out on all the stuff that doesn't suck. Like college, marriage, maybe kids if you want." Dad says to me pulling me out of the hug to look at him.
"Emile, baby, your perfect to me. No matter what anyone says. I will always love you." Dad looks me in eye and says it to me. I start to cry harder.
Dad picks me up and sits me on my bed.
He turns on my TV and puts on of my favorite movies on. Lilo and stitch.
A awhile I finally calm down. Dad notices and pauses the movie and looks at me.
"Why'd you pause it?" I ask
"Can I ask you something?" He says up front.
"Uhhh sure." I say to him without looking him in the eyes.
"Who was the "he" you were referring to. You said he saved you." Dad asks softly.
I sigh.
"His names Remy. He's friends with Remus. He tries to be nice and smile but I know he sees me as pathetic." I say and my dad hugs me again.
"Sweetheart why didn't you tell me this. Your not pathetic. Maybe not in your eyes, but in my eyes and everyone else's your wonderful." Dad says to me and I start to tear up again.
"I'm sorry..." I say starting to break down again.
"Sweetheart how about you stay home tomorrow?" Dad says and I nod as I sob into his sweater.
Roman POV
"Roman sweetheart!!" I hear Alex and I look away from the artist that's doing my makeup.
"Hey Alex." The artist gently pulls my face back to her view to finish. I mutter a quick apology to her.
"Darling, baby, guess what?!" He says excitedly.
"What Alex?" I say closing my eyes as she works on my eye brows.
"We're doing winter clothes for this shoot! Roman you know how much I love the Christmas collection." Alex exclaims.
"That sounds great Alex but we're in Miami. It's 100° outside." I say to him and I can hear him frown.
"Yes but your mother wants to do it so-" I cut him off.
"So I have to do it. I know I know, but why are we doing it so early. It's September. Why aren't we doing the fall collection?" I ask
"Well cause sweetheart we already did that last month. We're ahead of schedule and I would like to keep it that way." Alex says and I roll my eyes. He promptly leaves after that.
Time skip
"Do I have to zip it? It's really hot." I ask my mom.
"Si, si, zip all the way." My mom says.
"Ok now go out to the set. Alex will help you start. I have a phone call." My mom says and leaves the room.
"Great." I say and get up to go to set
No POV
Roman walks out of his room out to the set where Alex is waiting. He's talking to the lighting crew.
"Roman! Darling! You ready?" Alex asks Roman. Roman nods. He's very tired and looks very pale.
"Roman dear who did your makeup? They did your foundation too light. Never mind let's get this done, shall we?" Alex says to Roman. Romans not listening. Romans head is pounding and his ears are ringing. Alex drags him up to the stage.
"Ok fake snow is gonna fall down onto you and your gonna pretend to catch it. Ok?" Alex says to Roman and he nods.
Roman starts to model. Flipping his hood up like it got cold. He's very good at acting like it's cold even though he's in the middle of a heat stroke.
Roman is doing fine for a little bit. They got about 40 photos of the first shoot. They even got a change of clothes. Not to lighter clothes but somehow to an even heavier coat.
Alex escorted him back to the stage.
"Ok Ro, your going to stand on this ladder and pose like your putting up Christmas lights. You got this kid." Alex says while he pats Roman on the back. Roman is not okay. He's pale and starting to go cold from the heat stroke.
Roman slowly climbs the ladder to the second bar and holds up the Christmas lights.
The lights start to flash. All the bright lights around the room somehow makes the room even hotter. Roman suddenly drops the lights. Bulbs shattering on the floor.
Roman falls shortly after. Hitting his head hard on the ground.
Roman is unconscious now.

Hey I'm back.
