(Virgil’s P.O.V.)

        ‘How the hell did I let this happen.’ I thought to myself as I padded alongside Sir Sing Along. As we walked towards the palace he rattled
on about Logan and Patton and even me a little bit which surprised me.
I didn’t think the creative side liked me all that much with how much
we fight all the time. He then went on a tangent about if Fenris was a
good fit or of he should change it to Rama. The Prince actually admitted he picked Fenris because I reminded him, in my wolf form, of myself, while human form. I couldn’t help but chuckle a little at this.

        As the Palace came closer into view I involuntarily let out a little
whimper as my nerves kicked back in. What was going to happen when we
got inside? Would I be able to sneak off and hide to change back human
and let the side door open a crack. My whimper and hesitation got Romans attention as he bent down to scratch behind my ears “It’s alright. I promise you nothing bad is going to happen. Now come on so we can get settled in for the night. I’ll introduce you to everyone in the morning. Including Surly Temple.” At the mention of one of my many nicknames from him I let out a confused little yelp which made the Prince smile and laugh a little “Don’t worry. He’s not as bad as he
sounds. In fact.” The Prince of a side let out a sigh “Don’t tell any of the others, but he may have stolen my heart the little tramp. Now come on so we can get inside.”

        What the- Was that- Did he-Did he just confess that he had feelings
for me other than pure disgust? Very confused and slightly worried
that this was some cruel joke I followed Roman, who had already
started walking and tugging on the leash slightly, up and into the
Palace. We entered threw one of the hidden side doors near one of the
statues in the garden and made our way down the massive hall. The moon
light puddled on the floor from the massive windows bathing the room
in a mysterious glow. Instead of heading down the darker corridor that led to my room he made his way towards his. It was painted red with
gold trim and a little golden crown, Kingdom Hearts style, that had
his name in his elegant handwriting.

        He unlocked the door and for the first time in my life here at the
palace I was actually invited into his room. I hesitated as the door unsure if this was what he wanted. Roman smiled “It’s alright. You can come in. It’s not a trick. I wont just throw you out and call you a bad boy.” I cocked my head to the side as he just laughed again and rubbed my head “You know, I swear it’s like you understand everything I’m saying. Almost like you used to be a human or something.” I froze ‘O shit..’ “That’s it, you’re some poor Prince under a dark curse from
the dreaded Dragon Witch. Never fear Roman will save you.” With that
he bent down and planted a kiss on my muzzle. I blinked up at him
confused and slightly embraced. My first kiss with him had been as a
wolf, great.

        Roman looked at me with a grin, still hugging my neck, “Well maybe
not a curse then.” He let me go and closed and locked the door behind
us. The noise caused me to jump again. Gah this encounter was going to give me a heart attack and kill me. “You know, you remind me a lot of
our little Panic! At the Everywhere.” He chuckled slightly as he used yet another of my nicknames. He got a distant look on his face for a moment. Was he thinking about me? Quit it Virgil. He could have been joking earlier. Besides, who could love a fuck up like me. The moment passed and Roman announced he was going to change and then it would be cuddles and Disney movies. Great, another one of my fantasies but instead of me in my normal form I was a wolf. Yay.

        While Roman was in his closet I took this opportunity to explore. The
room, like mine and all the others rooms, had high vaulted ceilings.
His rafters were showing giving a very medieval feel to it. A large
window over looked the village and forest on the far wall. Speaking of
the walls, most of them were covered with Disney posters some had
random banners of red and gold. I bet if I were to count his Disney
posters he would indeed have 101 like I secretly thought. There was a
Grifindor house flag above his bed as well as a rainbow flag with the
quote ‘Could Be Gayer’ scrolled on it. His bed was a grand king-sized
four poster bed with a canopy. His sheets looked so soft and warm
keeping with the red and gold theme. At the foot of his bed was a trunk in the style of Harry Potters luggage from the film. The wall opposite his bed had a large TV and a collection of every single Disney movie and show ever made. Most of the movies in both VHS and DVD. There was a small fire place further down the wall with a very large and very comfy looking Red armchair with matching foot rest. There were three other doors besides the one leading to the hallway but before I had time to explore, Roman emerged from his closet in his ‘royal’ pajamas.

        “Never fear, I have vanquished the foul closet monster so you may
rest at ease.” I cocked my head to the side and rolled my eyes earning
another grin from Roman. “You are too adorable. Patton is going to eat
you up.” He made his way to his bed and patted the spot beside him.
“Come on Fenris. You’ll sleep up here with me.” I looked at him then at the door and then back to him. “It’s alright. Come on. We can cuddle and watch Disney while we fall asleep.” Ehh, What’s the worst thing that could happen? I don’t really sleep good anyway and I can slip out the door while he sleeps and non would be the wiser. I made my way to his bed and jumped up onto its feathery soft surface. Once we got settled into the covers Roman hit play and Lilo and Stitch began to play. Roman began to pet me absentmindedly and before I knew it I had fallen asleep.
