There's Double

Chapter 10

Stella sat on the couch listening to the soundtracks sent to her and the background for them. She read the backgrounds and the script for it, then she listened to them over and over again. Coming up with dances for these were easy to do in her head. Her phone lit up as a call came through. She sighed as she picked it up.

"Hello Stella speaking."

"Hey Stella. So I think that it would be easier for you if you knew how each one danced. I sent videos of each dancer, dancing separately and in a group."

"Oh that's awesome thanks! That's really gonna help a lot!"

"Oh and the reason that I didn't text you that is because my phone died and I'm at the Rodgers watching a friend do his rehearsal and they have a landline."

"Alright Steve I didn't need an explanation on why you called instead of texted me" Stella laughed.

"Oh okay well bye Stella and I wish you good luck with the assignment!"

"Bye Steve" Stella sighed as she went back to work. She sat peacefully on the couch until she felt arms wrap around her neck. She stiffened.

"Shh it's okay I'm not gonna hurt you" they smiled. Stella relaxed as she knew that Virgil was there in a protecting manner. Stella looked up when the arms vanished from around her. Virgil was now sitting beside her. Thomas sat on the floor with Patton and Roman. Logan sat in the chair reading a book. She smiled at her family. They weren't like any normal family. Her brother and his personas. Not a typical family but they indeed were a family.

"Steven Universe? Seriously you guys?"

"Shut up Logan this is great" Roman shot back not taking his eyes of the screen.

"I'm just saying why not watch something educational?"

"Logan leave them alone" Stella sighed.

"But-" Logan was cut off by a pillow in his face. Stella was now laughing at the confused persona. "What was the point of that? Wait who through this?"

"It was me" laughed Virgil. Everybody was laughing at the confused Logan who only got more confused. Nobody ever heard Virgil laugh and they weren't gonna stop it. They loved seeing Virgil like this. A pillow hit Stella's laptop and the force slammed the top down on her fingers.

"Ow" she exclaimed. Thomas was by her side in an instant lifting up the laptop. He slowly took her fingers out and examined them. They were red and already starting to swell. Tears formed in her eyes as the pain in her fingers increases. Virgil was by her side holding an ice pack while Logan sat in his chair ashamed. Patton was over at Logan's side telling him that was an accident and that Stella would be fine. Logan couldn't bring himself to agree.

"Shh Stella. Breathe. You have control" a whisper to her, but loud for people to hear. Virgil sat there with Stella in his arms. Shaking was all Stella could do. Roman sat there watching what was going on. He didn't know what to do in this situation. Thomas needed no creative things right now, Virgil was working double, and Patton was being a dad to a distraught Logan.
"Roman can you go get the first aid kit. It's in the bathroom under the sink" Thomas asked not looking away from Stella. Roman looked at Stella as he walked away. Stella seemed to have calmed down a little. Her breathing was under control but she was still shaking.
Logan's POV

I stared at Stella. I can't believe I hurt her. I didn't think that I threw it that hard. I guess I can throw when I get annoyed. I want to speak to her but I can't bring myself to it. Her screams echoed through the room. I wanted to comfort her but I stayed out of the way. Virgil would kill me- NO VIRGIL IS GONNA KILL ME LATER! I started to shake. A hand was placed on my shoulder as I looked up to see Patton standing in front of me. "Hey Logan."

"Hi" I whispered looking back down.

"Hey it's gonna be okay. It was an accident we know that."

"I don't think Virgil does though."

"He should understand" Patton smiled.

~TIME SKIP~
REGULAR POV
Stella sat on the couch sleeping on Virgil's shoulder. Virgil held her protectively. He too drifted off into a light sleep. Logan stared at them. He's never seen Virgil so comfortable. Stella shifted and slowly opened her eyes. She looked over to Virgil to see him asleep and she smiled. She glanced at Logan who quickly turned the other way. "Logan?"

"Hmm" he hummed not looking at her.

"Are you okay?"

"I'm not good with emotions so I don't know" he sighed.

"Logan I don't hate you. I'm not mad at you. I know it was an accident" Stella smiled.

"Yeah but does Virgil say? Does he think that I did it on purpose?"

"Logan" Stella sighed. "Virgil knows that you didn't mean it even if he acts like he hates you he doesn't."

"Yeah Logan I do know it was an accident." The two jumped and turned to see a smiling Virgil sitting on the couch.

"Virgil!" Logan said startled. "I didn't think you were awake."

"Yeah I was. I woke up Stella wasn't on my shoulder anymore. I just didn't open my eyes because you two started talking."

"See I told you Logan" Stella exclaimed. 

"Yeah you did" Logan sighed. Stella made her way back to Virgil and together the three spent the time talking and laughing about anything and everything. What they didn't care to notice were the other three watching from the hallway, smiling at the now happy family.
