The Divide [Logan X Patton]

The shop where the lost things go

I opened the door as quietly as possible, an attempt to keep Virgil asleep but when I entered the kitchen I noticed he was already up, sitting on his chair clutching a mug full of lavender tea.

"Hey virge"

Virgil quickly turned his head in my direction, his hair swishing into his eyes.

"Patton!"

Virgil ran slammed down his tea and came running towards me, immediately pulling me into a hug.

"Well good morning to you buddy"

"Where the hell were you?!"

Virgil looked up at me with his big brown puppy dog eyes and pools of tears streaming down his face.

"I was so worried about you!"

"Oh buddy I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you."

I held him close and patted his back. He backed away and sniffled.

"Why do you have band-aids on you everywhere?"

I felt my face flush.

"Well its a bit of a long story."

"We have all day" so I told him everything.

I told him about the coffee table, Winnie the Pooh, the dinner and the stars, I told him about everything except the dream and the song. I wanted to keep them, almost like a beautiful secret for just me. When I was done Virgil looked at me skeptically and raised an eyebrow.

"So" he started

"The guy who hired you sent you a kinky maids outfit on "accident", saw you with your pants off so he could "tend to your wounds", had a movie date with you, took you to dinner, had a stargazing date with you, and then let you sleep in his mansion. The guy sounds like a creep who has the hots for you."

I felt as my face flushed, starting from the sides of my face and slowly creeping to my nose. Virgil laughed heartily.

"Look virge, I know from afar it seems pretty sketch and stuff but Logie is a sweetheart and you can't judge him too harshly! You never met him before." 

"Oh my god" 

Virgil smiled slyly and placed his hand on his hip 

"You have the hots for him, you have the hots for each other! I'm a psychic! Watch him be your soulmate." 

"No! Virgil, we are just friends! I work for him, and dating him would be highly inappropriate. I don't even think he is gay, besides-" 

"Yeah yeah, whatever Pat, just be sure to invite me to your guys next date or "outing" so I can be your lookout." 

I cocked my head and chuckled lightly 

"Lookout for what?" 

Virgil raised his eyebrow and smiled 

"Falling Pianos, oh yeah, I still have to meet him too" 

I guess that was my queue to drop the ball on him 

"Do you really want to meet Logan? I asked 

Virgil walked into the living room and begin cleaning up his spilled tea, I followed closely behind. 

"Well" I started 

"Logan's friend invited us to a nice party-" 

Virgil's face turned as white as fresh powdered snow, he fidgeted with the pull string of his hoodie, wrapping it around his finger until the tip of it turned a deep plum color.
