As the morning rolled by, Patton awoke to the sight of his lover still emerged in the game they'd played last night, he smiled softly at the view before he sat up and began stretching his arms out while letting a yawn escape his lips.

"Morning kitten" he said in a raspy morning voice and planted a small kiss on Virgil's cheek before making his way into the kitchen to make some breakfast.

Virgil looked over at Patton as he sat up, pausing the game. "Good morning Puppy" he said softly and smiled.

Virgil continued the game as Patton left for the kitchen. He quickly finished his run before he shut down the game, got up and headed into the kitchen to join Patton, he wasn't all that hungry and decided to just go for some cereal. He got the milk from the fridge and the frosted flakes from the shelf and made himself a bowl. Roman could be heard coming down the stairs, singing the opening song from beauty and the beast.

Patton quickly made himself a sandwich and was just about to join Virgil at the table but then remembered what a mess the living room had become from all the snacks eaten yesterday so he plopped the sandwich in his mouth and almost danced his was into the living room, waving happily at Roman as he passed him on his way there. Meanwhile, a very unstable Logan waltzed down the stairs, he saw the happiness in Patton's eyes and his heart skipped a beat at the cuteness of him but was quickly reminded of the image he'd seen last night and was determined to find out. He grabbed a bowl of cereal and joined Virgil at the table.

" Morning Virgil, how was your evening?" Logan spoke in an almost mischievous voice as he gave Virgil a fake smile, pretending like their argument never happened.

Virgil looked up at Logan as he sat down. He raised an eyebrow, confused as to why Logan would ask. "Good?" He said in a questioning tone. He wasn't sure why Logan cared but the way he acted seemed off to him. Roman skidded by the two, still humming his Disney tunes as he made himself some breakfast. Logan simply raised an eyebrow before continuing.

"Good? So, anything interesting happened yesterday? With Patton maybe?" He asked, making his tone masked in both an uninterested yet curios as he questioned Virgil, awaiting  answers, when Logan first saw last nights event, he thought it was a cruel vision or perhaps a nightmare but then the little logistic side that he had left in this storm of emotions made him rationalise that what he had seen was indeed true.

Virgil was confused. Not sure why Logan asked, or cared for that matter. Had something good happened? Yes, it had, was he about to tell Logan that? Of course not. Virgil simply shrugged and took up a spoon of cereal.

"Not really, we just played some video games and then Patton fell asleep" he said in a nonchalant tone before raising the spoon of cereal to his mouth.

Logan was starting to get annoyed, did he come off as stupid? Or was Virgil just oblivious as to what he was asking? He stood up with a stern look and pointed his spoon at Virgil

" FALSEHOOD!! I SAW YOU!!!" He shouted at the top of his lungs. Virgil got so startled that he almost fell off the chair, or well, he did fall off it, just not on the floor. He managed to land on his feet, it took him a few moments to regain his balance.

" Saw what?" A confused Patton asked as he walked back into kitchen, his arms filled with dishes and empty cans.

"Yeah, saw what?" Virgil asked as well. He was pretty sure he knew what Logan was referring to, but he decided to play dumb, not sure if Patton wanted the news out. He just looked at Logan, eyebrow raised. He had a small hint of a blush on his face, giving him away that he knew

Logan was really starting to get annoyed, he turned his head to a confused Patton and back to Virgil, deciding not to cause an argument. He simply waved Patton over and gestured for him to sit, once he was seated, he sighed once more before asking the painful question he so badly wanted to have a 'no' being its answer but knew that wouldn't happen

" Are you two a thing?" Logan asked, trying to hide the pain in his voice.

Patton looked shocked but stayed quiet, he wasn't sure what he and Virgil were since they hadn't put a title on it, he ended up just tilting his head in Virgil direction with a look asking 'What do we say?' He was nervous, not exactly sure if Virgil wanted the other sides to know so he let him be the judge of how to handle this situation.

Virgil looked at Patton, he knew Patton had given him the power to answer. Virgil knew Logan liked Patton, he had made that clear the day before. Virgil thought for a moment, Roman had stopped singing and was now looking at what was happening by the table. Virgil took a deep breath and looked at Logan. To Virgil they were a thing, he hoped Patton felt the same. He knew there was no reason to lie, that would just be resulted into another falsehood. He looked Logan in the eye, he reached out and grabbed Patton's hand for support before he spoke.

"Yes"

Patton squeezed Virgils hand in a supportive manner as he gave him a reassuring smile and then turned to Logan who now seemed to have a gloomy aura around him. Logan quickly stomped away from the kitchen, holding in his tears, he didn't let them fall until he had slammed the door shut behind him, loud enough for it to have been heard downstairs. His heart was aching, the pain was to much as he threw himself on the bed crying. Patton just looked confused as he saw Logan storm off and jumped slightly at the sudden slam of the door upstairs closing. Now worry filled him as he detached his hand from Virgil's.

"I'm going to check on him, something seems off" Patton spoke worriedly as he walked out of the kitchen.

Once Patton was upstairs he knocked lightly on the door as he tried to get into Logan's room to talk to him but as much as Logan wanted to just pull Patton through that door, lock him up and never let him go, he couldn't, he had too much pride in him to let Patton see him so broken, he just simply ignored Patton's knocking and continued to cry into his pillow.
