Confidence

No Forgiveness

Anxiety's POV

We sat in Romans room and hugged.

After realizing he was at the door when Andy and I were arguing, and ignoring him, he came in and interrupted the tense conversation. I felt so grateful that he got me out of there.

I began to pull away from the hug and he let go. Without the warmth of his arms around me I felt almost empty.

"Thank you so much Princey." I murmured. He nodded and smiled.

"You have to stop letting people treat you like that. It's not right." I just nodded and hummed, wishing we could just cuddle up and watch a movie. But we can't.

*flash back to when Roman came in the room*

"Umm hey Roman how can I help you?" I asked. I could see the wheels turning in his had as he thought of a plan.

"Actually I was wondering if you could give me make up tips? I had some looks I wanted to try, but I had no idea where to start." I gave him a puzzled look but nodded.

"Yeah I'll grab my make up and meet you in your room." He nodded at me and left the room. Andy walked over to me and grabbed me by the waist, pulling me in close, our noses maybe a centimeter apart.

"Don't think for a second that this conversation is over. I want you back her before dinner and we're gonna watch a movie. Alright?" He demanded. I flinched away from him and gave him a slight hesitant nod. He let go, giving me the chance to grab my makeup and get out of there.

*end of flash back*

It took me a moment to realize that he was calling my name.

"Virgil? Anx? Anxiety please." He said to me as I stared I at him vacantly. Once I noticed my name being called I shook myself from my shocked state.

"Don't worry I'm fine. What did you say?" I asked quickly.

"I said I'll go beat him up for you. Really it wouldn't be a problem at all." He chuckled and I just shook me head. His hands grabbed my face as I tried not to flinch.
"Anx. Whatever secrets you have that he's blackmailing you with, I won't judge. No matter what you're hiding I will always love you." He told looking in my eyes. As he realized what he said his eyes went wide, "I-I mean- .. well you know um well- you see," he rambled. I just pulled him in for a hug and whispered, "They'd never forgive me."
I could tell he was confused but he didn't ask about it.

Bang Bang Bang

Someone knocked at the door harshly. We pulled apart rapidly as someone yelled through the door.

"Hey Virg I was wondering when we were gonna watch that movie that you promised?" It was Andy.

"Umm yeah I'll be there in a moment I just have to clean up my makeup." I yelled back, lying straight through my teeth.

"Please don't leave," Roman whispered, "please don't go back to that monster." I gave him an apologetic look and left the room.
