Trigger warnings

Touch starved
Crying
Sympathetic Remus

*Logan's POV*

Thomas has been lacking with being punctual recently which means I haven't been doing my job properly. I need to make sure Thomas is punctual. Thomas has also messed up his sleep schedule. Again my fault. I realise I've been lacking lately.

I left my room to get some food since I hadn't eaten yet. When I got down stairs I got greeted by a very angry Roman.

"LOGAN, WHY WAS THOMAS LATE?! YOU KNEW HE HAD AN AUDITION TO GO TO YET HE SLEPT IN! THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT!" Roman yelled at the top of his lungs at me.

Everyone was a little stunned by the prince's out burst. I felt tears prick in my eyes. I muttered a small sorry before quickly leaving back up the stairs. Once in my room, I locked the door and headed to my desk. I put on some noise cancelling headphones so I could work in peace with any interruptions.

I was working on some solutions for the lack of sleep Thomas has been getting recently. I came to the conclusion that it was due to his intrusive thoughts, Remus. I wasn't mad. In reality, I was kinda sad. I didn't really hate Remus as much as the others thought. But Remus can't be the only thing can he? There must be something else. I began on working on figuring out what else was wrong.

I was doing research about what intrusive thoughts can cause as well as what a lack of sleep can cause. I looked at the time noticing that it was the next day. Wait really? I was working the entire day and entire night? And nobody came and looked for me? Wow. What's friends I have. I ignored the anger I felt building inside me, instead I continued to Work. Until I got a message from Patton.

"Hey lo, when do you think your gonna come out to eat breakfast?"

I thought for a moment before saying I'd come out once I finished. I knew I wasn't going to be finished for a while but I didn't really care. I put my phone on silent putting my noise cancelling headphones back on working on ways for Thomas to be more punctual.

I came up with more questions than answers and more issues than resolutions. I looked at the mountain of paper work on my desk before looking at the clock on my wall. Hold on. It can't be 2 am. No. I looked at my phone to check the time. It sure was 2am. Great. I was majorly sleep deprived.

I still had work to do so I walked down stairs to get a cup of coffee. When I got up, my legs gave out instantly. My eyes became heavy. I feel asleep. 

*Timeskip to when he wakes up*

I woke in unbearable pain. I checked my watch, which was blurry since my glasses were on the ground next to me. 10am great. I fucked up my sleep schedule. I went to grab my glasses to find them broken. Even better. I got up. It hurt like hell. My carpet isn't that comfortable to sleep on. I walked over to my bed side table to grab my spare glasses. I turned around to look at my desk. The mountain of work was still there. Taunting me. I mentally beat myself up as I walked over. I need a break, I know that, but my works seems more important right now. But before I start overworking myself again, coffee.

I got off my chair to just feel how hungry I was. I mean I hadn't eaten in 3 days so it makes sense. I walked down stairs straight to the coffee machine. I heard muffled sounds from around me. I forgot to remove the noise cancelling headphones. I didn't really care. I got my coffee making my way back to my room.

I began my work again until my phone buzzed. I looked at it seeing a text from Remus.

"Hey Logan, I'm at your door, can you open it please. I wanna talk to you,"

I felt bad. Plus he used proper grammar meaning he was being serious. I walked over, taking off my headphones before opening the door. I was instantly engulfed in a big warm hug. I haven't felt physical touch in far too long. I must have been touched starved. He pulled away. I felt so empty without that touch.

"Logan, what's wrong? Roman and Patton told me you haven't left your room in a few days," Remus said with a sad caring voice.

I couldn't hold it in any longer. I began to sob. I couldn't control the flow from my eyes. Remus removed my glasses before wrapping his arms around me.

"Lo, it's okay. It's alright. Your doing great okay. I care about you. I'm proud of you," Remus said softly.

I haven't spoken to anyone in the last few days. I haven't heard another person's voice in so long. I gripped onto Remus's shirt tightly. I burried my face into his shirt. I felt bad cause I knew his shirt was going to need to be cleaned.

Remus kept reassuring me and comforting me. I eventually stopped crying. I knew I had to tell him what's wrong so I took a deep breath.

"Well, recently, I haven't been able to keep up with the work load. And Thomas has been less punctual than usual. So much so that he missed a big opportunity to play a lead role in a musical. Roman then yelled at me pushing me over the edge. I then over worked myself to an unhealthy extent. The work got over whelming. I haven't eaten in far to many days. I only slept cause I was going to get a coffee when my legs gave out and I passed out. Plus I'm a little touch starved," I said with clear pain in my voice.

Remus pulled me into another hug.

"Logie, it's okay to be struggling with work, you could have asked me, Roman, Patton heck even virgil. Now you need to eat and get proper sleep. C'mon let's come out and go gets some food," Remus said leading my out while holding my hand.

We got into the lounge room Roman giving me a rude glare, to which Remus returned the gesture. Remus got me to sit down at the dinner table where he made me a sandwich. For him being considered a terrible cook by deceit, he makes delicious sandwiches. It was a simple ham and cheese but since I was starving, it tastes like heaven between two slices of bread. Remus handed me a glass of water making me become aware of how dehydrated I was. I chugged the water making Remus shocked.

I finished the food. Remus grabbing my hand again bringing back into my room.

"Remus, can you l-lay with me? Please?" I said with a small whine.

He looked slightly shocked but agreed. I got changed into some sleep ware with Remus stealing some of my clothes. I hopped into bed Remus following close behind. He laid behind me wrapping his arms around my waist protectively. This made me feel so loved and cared for. I quickly fell asleep. Remus falling asleep shortly after me.
