Roman's Butterflies

Sorry if I miss tomorrow's upload-
I've run into a speedbump in the plot so I'm not as fast with writing-

If I miss an upload, just know that's probably the issue-

That's all-
Have fun u<u

Virgil had turned on a movie and opened a closet full of blankets, throwing some onto the bed.

Why did he need that many blankets?-
Geeze- 

They watched The Hunchback of Notre Dame.

Okay but a quick show of hands, did anybody else have a big gay awakening in that movie?
I had a crush on Ezmerelda lmao

Virgil turned the pile of blankets into a nest and threw one blanket over the two of them.

It was a really comfortable moment.

Before the movie was really getting into the plot Virgil asked,

"Have you seen this yet?" Roman nodded.

"I love Disney movies, I just haven't seen most of the newer ones." He hugged one of Virgil's pillows.

"Do you have a favorite character from this movie?" Virgil asked.

"Yeah, Ezmerelda's always been my favorite." Virgil agreed and they watched the rest of the movie until there was a knock at the door.

"I'll get it, you can wait here," Virgil said, standing and opening his door.

It was Carolyn. She and Virgil talked for a bit before he closed the door and came back.

"She's agreed to try not to be weird this time," Virgil snickered. Roman smiled and Virgil went back under the blanket beside him. "Are you tired, Romano?"

"No," Roman smiled a little to himself. "It's just a good movie and your bed is comfy, so-" Virgil nodded.

Despite saying that, Roman ended up falling asleep for about an hour.

His dream was kinda weird.
He'd had the first part of it before, but it ended differently this time.

It started with him running in the dark.
He was struggling to keep away from whatever was chasing him, bugs were in his hair. Then he fell off of something and just... fell.

That would normally be where it ended, but this time he stopped mid-fall. 

Suddenly, everything got lighter, going from all the dark colors around him to a light-ish blue. in front of him was a butterfly. 

In his strange, floating, moment, he reached out his hand. The butterfly fluttered over his hand and then there were two. they swirled around until the scene changed again and there were countless butterflies.

He awoke covered by more blankets, his head propped up on something. He stirred.

"Oh- good evening, sleeping beauty." Virgil's voice said from above him.

Roman's face flushed as he quickly sat up.

"I am so sorry-" Roman stammered, nervously laughing.

"Princey, are you flustered?" Virgil giggled. "You're fine. Everyone gets tired. Was my knee a suitable pillow?" Roman pushed back his awkwardness and tried to put on a more calm exterior. 

"You could've moved if you wanted-" Roman played with his hair trying to get it to even out.

"You looked peaceful." Virgil smiled, typing something on his phone.

"Too peaceful to wake up?" Roman chuckled.

"Well yeah, look at you," Virgil gestured to him before falling backward and laying down. "You're the most beautiful creature I've ever laid my eyes on." Roman rolled his eyes sarcastically as they both exchanged smiles.

"Alright, sure Hot Topic."

"Awee, you think I'm hot," Roman's face flushed again and they both laughed.

"Y'know, Virge," Roman sighed. "I think you can tell one of your moms."

"Tell them what," Virgil asked, his face lightening when he understood. "Oh, yeah. You're sure you'll be okay if I do?" Roman shrugged.

"Nope," Roman looked to Virgil and then off to the bedroom walls. "But... I want to trust you."

He stared off into the void of Virgil's poster-covered, dull purple, walls.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to make the mood all strange, I just-" he was cut off by a quick movement to his left, then arms wrapped around him.

"Thank you, Roman," Roman loosely hugged him back. "You're fighting hard, I can see it." Roman almost cried again.

"Thanks, Scare-amore." He murmured.

"Sure thing, Romeo."

Bam-
This chapter was a little short, sorry-

But yeah, hope y'all are still enjoying it-
