.
It wasn't long after Roman had stayed in the clinic, just to waiting for Virgil
Virgil was still sleeping, while Roman, too, fell asleep
.
"What...Happened?"
Virgil groaned, waking up to the sound of metal clanging as the nurse, in her youth, tried to clean dental tools
The clinic was more crowded than it was before

"You okay?"
The nurse brought Virgil water, making him slightly better

"I'm fine"
But he wasn't, the pain was still there, he just didn't want to trouble the nurse more
He felt comfortable, more comfortable than his sleeping position, it was something extraordinary
Virgil felt something warm in his right hand, and led it to Roman's hand
He knew everything was going to be alright, more than alright, because of him

"You're friend has been waiting ever since you got here"
"Oh.."
"If you want we can release you now, it's dismissal anyway"
"T-thanks.. wait, dismissal?"
"Don't worry you'll be fine, except for this guy, he cut classes just for you"
Virgil wanted to know if this was a dream, holding Roman's hand.. Him sacrificing for a hopeless boy

Virgil begged to be released, Roman was still drowsy but held on to Virgil's hand till he woke up
Virgil smiled enjoying the warmth, Roman fixed up and grabbed their bags from the classrooms
.
"So what now?"
Virgil asked, his chest still felt like he's been stabbed and shot

"Let's go to the fields, I promise we we'll leave at 5:30"
"Alright, let's go"
He puffed, the weight on his back was heavy enough to cause him more pain

"One sec, I'm not ready yet"
Princey stopped, being one step behind his friend, and held his hand once more

"Now, I'm ready"
He smirked, trying to let Virgil feel special
Virgil accepted the fact that Roman liked him for who he was and not for accompanying him for the time being

They ran to the fields, the soggy scent of the grass that was tall to their ankles
Roman led him around, giggling while sun was setting for the night
They sat down and made their bulky bags into pillows
Roman and Virgil held hands for most of the time

They talked about numerous topics that they enjoyed themselves
5:30

"Oh, its 5:30"
Virgil was alerted by the beeping of his phone
"Aww"
Roman pouted
"Hey, you promised"
"Yeah yeah let's go"

They walked back, trying to enjoy the remaining tine
They collided hands when their hands hurt

Roman checked his right hand
It was a star
Virgil examined his left hand
Also, a star

They looked at each other, a little spark blew inside of their eyes
Their hearts were perfect for each other, both of them felt their chests igniting from passion
Roman suddenly frowned

"W-what is it, Roman?"
"You have to go home now.. I still want to hang out with you"
Virgil chuckled, and cupped his hands on Roman's cheek

"We can still talk on our phones"
"That's not it.."
Virgil raised an eyebrow, confused at him

"I want to feel you, hold you, love you"
"Me too, but then, I have to go"
"Damn it. Well, alright"
"Then I guess I'll see you, my prince"
He started moving out, near the hallway to the gate

"I'll see you, my little nightmare"
Virgil laughed
"W-whaat"
"Nothing, take care~"
Roman said waving, and smiling sweetly
"Take care, love you"
"Love you too"
.
I wonder where he is...
Little Talyn thought, swinging her legs front and back on the bench looking around for Virgil
She laid her head at the back on the bench, feeling the breeze, and having goosebumps

"Sorry I'm late, hop on"
Virgil showed up with his bike, Talyn smiled and put her hands on her brother's shoulders
.
The wind blew against Virgil's hair, his heart was joyful, overwhelmed
He felt free, nothing was going to bother him.. for now.
.
They finally reached home, they unlocked the gate and turned on the lights
"Big brother"
"Hm?"
"Why do you seem so happy today?"
"Nothing"
"Is it because mother's not here?"
"Maybe"
"Oh come on!"
.
They ate and did their homework, Virgil washed the dishes
He hummed, till he finished and wiped his hands
"Talyn?"

No response
"Talyn?"

He went to the living room, seeing Talyn on the couch, tired
She was cold too, she was curling herself up like a hermit
Virgil smiled calmly, and carried his sister to bed

"There we go"
Virgil grunted, trying not to wake her
He laid a blanket on her and messed up her hair

"Good night"
He went to bed, closed the lights and opened up his phone

Roman
I miss you already~
6:56

Virgil
You seem desperate for me... why so?
6:57

Roman
Its so cold without your touch
6:57

Roman would instantly reply to him, Virgil was right, he was desperate

Virgil
Roman, we've only touched each other for a couple of minutes
6:58

Roman
True, but it was perfect, You're perfect.
<3
6:58

Virgil fell into a blush, even if it was fake, he would still fall for him

Virgil
Go to sleep, good night, Princey
6:59

Roman
Fine, good night, love you
7:00

Virgil
Love you too
<3
7:00

He closed his phone and cuddled with the blanket
Was it coincidence that he said 'I love you' at exactly 7?
Virgil pondered, still smiling into a deep and comfortable sleep
