Virgil was still in the closet.
Well, physically, not metaphorically.
The person who was there with him was gone and gave back his phone, so he had his phone to use as a flashlight since he couldn't find where the light switch was.
Virgil: lo
Virgil: come back sjdjsksks
Virgil: that dude was texting from my phone
Virgil: still locked in here
Virgil: totally not freaking out
Virgil: please come sooner
Virgil: i'm gonna die in here
Virgil: yo
Virgil: dude
Virgil: babe?
Virgil: ffs
Virgil: um
Virgil: ummmmmm
Virgil: well i guess i'm gonna die in here
Virgil: oh wait i have a brother
Virgil: i'll text him
Virgil: thanks for responding
Lo 💜: Wait! Sorry, I had my phone on silent.
Lo 💜: Um, Patton and I are on the bus right now, so we'll get off at the next stop and like, run to school.
Virgil: oof running
Virgil: come quick
Lo 💜: We're coming. I'm not a runner, so...
Lo 💜: This may take some time.
Lo 💜: Well, I guess not. Patton is somehow carrying me while running full speed and carrying a heavy backpack. We'll be there soon.
Virgil: that's my patton :)
Virgil: see ya
In the closet, Virgil tried different ways to get out. He tried to unlock the door in various ways, but that didn't work, because in all high school cliches the lock is on the outside, which is just fucking stupid.
He spotted a saw.
And he had an idea.
But he knew there was a security camera in that hallway.
Also, knowing himself very well, he would probably slice himself while trying to saw an opening in the door.
He already gave up on turning the knob about ten thousand times.
He tried to calm down by listening to music on his nearly dead phone, but he just wanted to be with Logan.
☆
Finally, Logan and Patton arrived.
What took them so long?
Patton unlocked the door from the outside and pulled Virgil out quickly. "Sorry! Saw a dog, forgot where I was going and what I was doing, and then Logan was so scared of the dog that he almost passed out and then he told me where to go, but we went the opposite way by accident, but not that far, so we ran here. And Logan's sweaty."
Virgil sighed. "Alright. Let's just go now before they lock the school and we're here overnight."
They ran to the front door and Virgil could finally breathe fresh air again.
☆
The next morning, Virgil was sitting on a bench with Patton outside before the doors opened and were talking peacefully. They pretended not to know where Logan was.
Patton was wondering where Elliott was...
Jackson and Landon were sitting on a bench pretty far from theirs.
"That didn't work, did it?" Jackson sighed.
"Yeah, no shit," Landon scoffed. "You get your older brother to harass Virgil, then you harass Virgil in a closet, and then give back his phone when you leave? Really? You're such an idiot."
"Hey! Since you know everything, do you have any better ideas?"
"No, but I know yours was shit."
"Your subtle route was taking way too long. We would've graduated before they broke up."
"Well your less subtle route literally did nothing but made Virgil hate you even more."
"If I'm going to get with Virgil and you get with Logan, we have to come up with something quick," Jackson ordered.
From inside the bush behind the bench the two jocks were sitting on, Logan was hiding and listening to their conversation.
You know - he did say he would try to find the easy solutions to things.
