Cheater (Prinxiety)

Chapter 4

"speak of the Devil, the doctor said you can come home."

Logan said, helping Virgil stand up and sit in a wheelchair. Virgil smiled a little "thanks, Lo."he said. Of course, Roman pushed Virgil making Virgil giggle with the sudden pushes and wheelies. Roman smiled seeing Virgil smile and giggle in this state.

~Later that night~

Virgil winced as Patton pulled the leg of his jeans to his knees and applied rubbing alcohol. "Sorry, Kiddo. Doctor's, and Logan's, orders." Patton said, continuing. "What's the difference" Virgil said with a small smile, Patton chuckled. After he finished putting rubbing alcohol on Virgil's cuts he smiled and got up "okay, see ya tomorrow." He smiled and left Virgil's room. Virgil layed back on his bed. How was he going to sleep with the excruciating pain running through his body with every microscopic movement. About an hour later Virgil had finally gotten to sleep. Roman knocked on his door as Patton had asked him to go check on him. Virgil didn't wake up, so Roman opened the door making Virgil groan but not wake up. He smiled a little seeing Virgil asleep in a balled up Kitten manner. "He's asleep and adorable," Roman said, sitting next to Patton. Patton smiled "when are you gonna tell him you like him?" Patton asked "I-uh... preferably when Keith is dead or in prison." Roman said, grabbing his phone and going to the video of Virgil singing when he was younger and looked a lot more feminine. Patton smiled "You didn't delete that yet?" He asked "no, why would I?" Roman said in response. Patton chuckled "He hated me when I sent that to you and Logan," he said, watching the video over with Roman "I know. But, it's just cute seeing him with shoulder length, blue hair" Roman chuckled. "Didn't he kind of look like a girl?" Roman asked, looking at Patton who smiled a little "Yeah. I mean, didn't we all kind of look like girls." He said, showing old pictures of the four "first of all, did you internally pull a photo of when Virgil and I both wore dresses when we could? Also, we did all have girl features." Roman said with a slight blush. "Of-" before Patton could finish his sentence he heard crying from Virgil's room. "He had a night terror. I'll be right back" Patton said, getting up "should I come?" Roman asked, "no, he'll be overwhelmed" Patton said, already halfway up the stairs. "O-okay..." Roman muttered. Patton got to Virgil's room and ran to where he was buried in covers as usual. "Kiddo, you're alright. It was just a dream" Patton said, Virgil peaking out from under his covers and leaning against Patton. "H-How did you know-" "you cry pretty loudly," Patton said, cutting him off. Virgil nodded, trying to control his breathing. "Hey..." Roman said, poking his head in Virgil's door. Virgil gulped and sat up "H-hey, Ro" he said, wiping his tear-stained face "um...are-are you alright, Virgil?" Roman asked, "I'm fine, Roman...what are doing in here anyway?" Virgil responded "Well...um...I-I'll tell you in the morning. By the way, Patton, I'm going to bed now" Roman said, closing Virgil's door you chickened out. Again. I mean, he was crying, so maybe I should wait he thought as he went to his room and closed the door. he sighed as he laid down, fighting to get to sleep. After finally getting to sleep, he started to whimper and move around in his sleep. What's happening? He thought, see, Roman had never had to much as a bad dream. So, going into a full night terror was 100% new to him. He woke up in a cold sweat, his heart beating what felt like 100mph. Who could he go To? Patton? Asleep. Logan? Just waking up and isn't good with feelings. Virgil? He'd understand and be awake, but, there was no way he was going to embarrass himself. He sighed just go. Virgil understands night terror, he wouldn't judge you, and He's awake. Roman thought, slowly getting out of bed. Wait, I could just summon him. Would that be weird? Roman got back into bed, he couldn't bring himself to summon Virgil or go to his room. He sighed, he snapped his fingers with the call of "Virgil?" Virgil appeared in Roman's room wearing his hoodie and "The Nightmare before Christmas sweatpants "yeah?" He asked "um...what was your first night terror like?" Roman said, scooting over so Virgil could sit down. Virgil's eyes went wide at the question and he started to shake. As soon as Roman saw this he regretted the question, he then remembered the reason Virgil even started to have night terrors "Virgil, I didn't mean-I'm sorry, I forgot." Roman said. Virgil sighed, his breathing now going back to normal. "Um..When I woke up...It was hard to breathe because my heart was beating really fast...I was sweating...and I didn't know who to go to." He managed "why did you ask?" "I just...um...I-no reason" Roman said. Of course there was a reason, but, if he explained he had a night terror, Virgil ask what about. And, there was no way he would tell Virgil it was about him being rejected by Virgil. "Oh...okay..see ya." He then vanished and sunk down against his door in tears as flashbacks flooded his mind.
