So this one is based off of a true story of what happened to me but it'll be obv changed a bit to fit the Sides.

~~~

Virgil was laying down in the Commons trying not to fall asleep. The Disney movie he was watching was starting to come to an end. Patton walked into the room and giggled, seeing Virgil trying not to fall asleep.

"You should head to bed Kiddo. Sleeping on the couch will mess up your neck and back. While yes, the couch is comfy, it'll still mess up your back and neck. You know how you get when you're stiff." Virgil groaned and slowly sat up, turning off the tv. He looked around and noticed that his black kitten, Midnight, had wandered off.

"Let me find Midnight, and then I'll head to bed." Patton smiled and walked over to him, ruffling his hair. He started to head to the kitchen.

"I don't have an idea where he is at, but he's around here somewhere." Patton walked into the kitchen and disappeared. Virgil stood up and stretched, looking around the room for his kitten. Not seeing Midnight in the room, he started to wander around the Mind Palace, looking for him.

"Midnight! Where are you?!" He wandered the halls calling out for his kitten. He usually came when Virgil called his name. Virgil headed to his room and checked around in there. He grabbed Midnights food bowl, and walked around the Mind Palace, shaking the food bowl and calling out for him.

Virgil had been looking around the halls and main rooms, unable to find his kitten. Virgil started to slowly panic, thinking the worst for his kitten. Virgil noticed Patton and ran up to him.

"Dad! Have you seen Midnight?! I can't find him anywhere!" Virgil yelled, as he frantically looked around the Common Room, looking for his cat. Patton shook his head and frowned.

"I haven't seen him recently. Let's go ask Roman and Logan if they have seen Midnight and we will all look for him together." They went and gathered the other two with replies the same. Neither of them has seen the dark kitten. They went and checked all the rooms multiple times. Virgil had started to cry. It had been 10 minutes they were all looking for the cat.

"What are we going to do Dad?! We can't find him anywhere! What if he got hurt?! Or what if he accidentally went into the imagination?!" Virgil was in a full blown panic attack at that point completely worried about his small kitten. Roman tried to calm Virgil down as Patton turned around and bent over. Patton scooped up Midnight who had come slowly walking down the hallway.

"Look who it is Virgil." Patton calmly said as he turned around with Midnight securely in his arms. Virgil glanced up from his hug with Roman and chocked out a sob. He grabbed Midnight and held him close to his chest, sobbing even harder. Still having a panic attack but slowly calming down with his kitten in his arms. Patton pulled Virgil into a hug.

"Its okay Virgil. Breathe for me. You're okay, Midnight is okay." Virgil buried his head into Pattons chest holding Midnight. Roman ran his fingers through Virgils hair as Logan awkwardly started rubbing his back, not really knowing what to do. He had never seen Virgil this upset. And over a cat? Logan didn't understand.

Virgil slowly started to be able to breathe normally, and not crying as hard. Tears still streamed down his face, but he wasn't sobbing. He pulled out of Patton and Romans hug and sent them all a broken smile.

"See Kiddo it's okay! It's not like Midnight went into the imagination or anything!" Virgil choked on a sob, thinking about Midnight getting lost in there and getting hurt. His breath started to go uneven as another panic attack crept up on him. Patton saw his mistake and quickly hugged Virgil.

"I'm sorry! I shouldn't have said that! Midnight will never be able to get into the Imagination as Roman and you are the only ones who go in and Roman always makes sure Midnight is with you before he goes in. And you always make sure me or Roman has him when you go in."

It took a few more minutes before Virgil finally calmed down again.

"Th-thanks for the help guys..." Virgil kept a hold of Midnight and looked down at him slowly petting his head. Patton ruffled Virgils hair.

"Of course. We will always help you when you need help! We're just glad that we found Midnight and you didn't have too bad of a panic attack." Virgil nodded his head and wiped away the tears still escaping his eyes.

"You and Midnight should head to bed. You both had an interesting night. You need your rest." Roman spoke up, smiling softly. He brought Virgil into a quick hug. He petted Midnight behind his ear, and smiled. Logan just rested a hand on Virgils shoulder.

"If you need anything else, just let us know Virgil. We will always be here for you." Virgil looked up at Logan and smiled softly, Logan smiling back.

"Thanks Logan. And thank you everyone for helping me. Someone should go make sure Thomas is okay."

"I'll go check up on Thomas. Patton, you make sure Virgil and Midnight safely get back to their room. Logan, come with me to see Thomas." Roman and Logan sank down as Patton and Virgil walked to Virgils room.

Virgil leaned against Patton as they walked. Patton wrapped his arm around Virgils shoulders and smiled, happy to see his dark, strange son feeling better. They got to Virgils room and he laid on his bed and held Midnight closely as he got into a comfortable position in Virgils arms.

"Goodnight Kiddo. And goodnight to you too, Midnight." Patton tucked Virgil in, and rubbed Midnights ears. "If anything happens in the middle of the night, come to one of us, okay Virgil?" Virgil nodded his head and smiled. Patton smiled and kissed Virgils forehead and walks over to the door. He opens the bedroom door and shuts off Virgils light.

"G'night Dad." Virgil called as Patton walked out.

"Goodnight Kiddo." Patton smiled and shut the door softly.

Let's just say, Virgil had to go to Patton a couple of times in the night because of panic attacks.

I know it's short, but it was something that happened to me a few days ago. Except my cat is orange and his name is Gizmo Dexter Weasley and I call him Asshole xD

It did take me 20 minutes to find Gizmo. I was running around my entire house yelling at my mom and step sister to help me as I panicked and cried. Gizmo is my emotional support and I thought he had decided to leave and I cried so hard. I was only able to sleep for like 2 hours before i woke up and then just kept having near panic attacks all night.

I will admit after I found Gizmo and went into my room, I went onto YouTube and started watching videos of Thomas laughing and singing and it calmed me down. His smile and laugh is so contagious and I couldn't stop the smile from appearing on my face xD

Whelp. I'm gonna go take a nap for a while. I'm exhausted.

And no, it's not the same day that this happened, it's a few days later lmao

Love you all!!
