(a/n: the song above is a fuckin bop and i'd love to cover it but the whole sexy person vibe isn't exactly me (shocker) but i think i'll try?)
"So... Did you forget?"
Shit. "Forget what?" Logan asked. Acting was NOT his thing.
"You told me we were meeting a Pinkberry?"
Virgil walked in and saw Landon and Logan talking. He rushed to Logan's side right away.
"Lo! Patton just fell down the stairs!" he lied. "Can you come help? Oh, hey Landon. Sorry about Pinkberry yesterday. My mom took both our phones yesterday so she probably sent those. Protective moms, you know?"
"Oh, okay," Landon said. It took him a second, but he started to believe it.
Logan followed Virgil. "Is Patton actually hurt or was that a lie to get me out of that situation?"
"Both. Let's go!"

"You know when... you're walking down the stairs but you start thinking about hot Broadway actors and you fall?" Patton asked.
Virgil snorted. "Nope."
"I RELATE!" came a voice from the attached second nurse's office.
"Ro?"
"That's me!" Roman was attaching an ice pack to his shin.
Virgil frowned. "Weren't you with Jacob the whole time? And he isn't here with you?"
"Nah, bitch. He's a lying ass hoe. We broke up because he liked four girls while we were dating."
"Oof."
"I'm basically over him, though. I deserve better." He beamed, even though there was a slight trace of sadness in his shiny eyes.
"You go, girl! Anyway, what even happened?"
"Girls and high heels that stab into your leg. OW. I mean, and boys. Fuck gender stereotypes. But it was just girls in that group. Why do they have to walk like they own the place? Don't they understand that not even Queen Riri is that extra when she walks?"
Virgil laughed.
The nurse was writing late passes for Patton, Logan, and Virgil.
"¡Logan! ¡Aquí!" Roman said with a grin. "No he hablado contigo en la escuela por un tiempo."
(logan! here! i haven't talked to you during school in some time.)
"Hola, Roman," Logan replied politely. "Quiero pasar al tiempo más con tú y Virgil en el futuro."
(hello, roman. i want to spend time with you and virgil more in the future.)
"¿Tú quieres hablar después la escuela?
(do you want to talk after school?)
"Am I hearing things from my concussion or are you guys speaking Spanish?" Patton asked, in a daze.
"Estamos hablano en español. No temas," Roman told the freshman.
(we are speaking in spanish. don't worry.)
"Virgil, Logan, you two can head back to class. Here are your passes. Virgil, bring your brother's things down here," the nurse said. She gave green slips to the couple.
"Adiós, Roman," Logan said playfully.
Him and Virgil almost forgot how they were both emotional wrecks just a little while earlier.

"Ever since puberty, everybody stares at me; boys, girls, I can't help it, baby," Virgil sang along to Take Me Or Leave Me playing from his laptop while trying to recreate a Shishter James makeup look.
It was his feel-good song to sing. Even though he had a panic attack earlier, he didn't want to bring it up. That'd make him more upset.
So he listened to music that Roman recommended to him.
Take Me Or Leave Me was the song Roman played for him when they weren't friends yet, during freshman year, when Virgil was a nobody, and Roman found him crying in the bathroom.
He loved it since.
He pushed away the memories from freshman year and pulled out some liquid eyeliner from a drawer in his vanity.
Patton was laying on his bed with an ice pack on his shin and another on the side of his head. He wanted background noise, so he loved hearing his older brother sing.
Logan was in the kitchen, helping the Greyson parents to bake a cake for Patton's 15th birthday, which was the day after.
Mrs. Greyson was squealing. She was insanely proud of her creation. Mr. Greyson was flossing for actually no reason and Logan tried to look away.
"OW! MY ARM!" Patton yelled from Virgil's room after a loud thud. "ADIÓS AMIGOS, PARTING IS SUCH SWEET SORROW!"
Virgil rushed out of his room and showed his screen to Logan. "Which one should I post? 1, 2, or 3?"
"They all look the same."
"No they don't!"
"Why is your family so 'extra'?!"
