(Our first two-digit month! Woohoo!)

(Early update cause my mom is taking my phone tomorrow hahakillme)

"What about a garnet rose set into a silver band with two black diamonds set on either side..." I mumbled to myself.

Virgil was asleep on our bed, snoring softly. I was sitting at my desk, trying to design an engagement ring. As I looked around the room for inspiration, my eyes landed on the sleeping form of my boyfriend. This ring needed to be perfect. 

Virgil shifted slightly, "Ro... wha're you talkin' 'bout?"

I smiled at him, "its a surprise."

"For?" He questioned, sitting up.

"For you Virgy," I got up and gave him a peck on the nose, "Now lets go eat lunch."

Virge smiled, then frowned, "can I ask you about that?"

"About what?" I asked, sitting down on our bed.

"You just randomly started eating again, not that I'm complaining!" Virgil added quickly, "Its just... its-"

"Its confusing, right?" I smiled softly. He nodded. I sighed, "Its a long story, are you sure you want to hear it?"

Virge nodded, "I'm sure."

"Alright."

(Roman's POV)

 14 years ago, a few days after Patton and Logan found Roman in the bathroom.

"Please Roman?" Patton begged. 

I shook my head, pushing the plate of cheesy rice away. Patton had already convinced me to eat breakfast and that was enough for me. 

He sighed, "Roman... I love you like my son, you know that, right?"

I looked up at him and nodded.

"And you know it hurts to see you like this..." He continued.

I gave him a confused look.

"When we f-found you, I w-was s-so scared," Patton started to cry, "and when you told us you were so underweight, I-I didn't know what I did wrong."

I grabbed his hands that were frantically wiping away tears. He looked up at me and I pulled him into a hug. He hugged back immediately and cried into my shoulder.

"I-I'm sorry," I croaked, "y-you didn't do anything wrong, it's all my fault."

He pulled away and held my shoulders, "Roman... don't think like that, it's not your fault either."

I nodded.

"Now will you please eat?"  Patton asked.

I looked at the plate of food. I didn't know if I could. Maybe I could try...

"Please?" Patton squeezed my hand.

I slowly lifted the fork. Gradually, bite after slow bite, I managed to eat half the cheesy rice. I set the fork down and looked back at Patton, expecting to see an expression of disappointment for not finishing. Instead, his face was split with a wide grin. He pulled me into a tight hug.

"I'm proud of you," he whispered in my ear.

"Can you promise me something?" Patton asked when we pulled away.

I nodded.

"Promise me you'll always stay a healthy weight, okay?"

"I promise."

(Roman's POV)

Present day

"Logan reminded me of that promise." I told Virge.

"Wow..." Virgil said, "that's... wow..."

I kissed the top of his head, "I'm getting better though."

"Good." Virge rested his head on my chest, "I don't want to loose you... especially not like that..."

"I know." I responded.

I started playing with his hair. Then Deceit stormed down the hallway.

"The author still doesn't need at least 452 more words!" He yelled down the hall.

Virgil scrunched up his nose in amusement, a glimmer of a smile flashing across his face.

I laughed, "okay, now let's go eat lunch."

"Alright." Virgy chuckled.

I had a feeling that something big was about to happen as we walked into the kitchen. Maybe something life changing...

Maybe...





















"There's not supposed to be 390 more words!" Deceit screamed at the author.
