The Boy in The Sky

Chapter Eight

Okay so before i start I want to thank  PixieRain13 for helping me on this chapter! I couldn't think of anything to lead up to the events I have planned. So a HUGE thanks to her. Go check her out as well she is awesome and a great friend!  

Roman's POV

It's been weeks since Virgil has gone missing, well not MISSING  but he hasn't come back for a while. Before he disappeared I remember the junior bolting out of the lunch room to the office. It didn't phase me that something might have been wrong, but even Patton stated when he was over at Logan's nothing changed other than Virgil was in his room, really sick. Just sick. I didn't believe that was what was really going on from the way he left he look frightened not nauseous or ready to puke. I wanted to go to Logan and ask, but I let it slide for now. 

My secret crush was all I was able to think about lately. I could be doing a math assignment and out of nowhere I begin to think about Virgil. I missed seeing his grape tinted hair and deep, mysterious eyes. I found myself having less energy because of it as well. 

"Hey Remy..."

"What do you want Princey?" the brunette looked at me over the edge of his sunglasses.

"I just want to ask you something, that's all," he gave me a skeptical look,"I promise!"

Remy adjusted his glasses and sighed,"FIne. And I already know what you're going to ask-" he leaned on the lunch table,"- I can't say anything to you because it's not my right, but what I can say is Virgil is OK. He is in a better place right now."

"HE'S DEAD!?" I shrieked. I was quickly shushed by Emo Nightmare's friend so we wouldn't draw as much attention.  

"No he is NOT dead-"

"But-" 

"Remember I can only say so much right now," Remy rolled his eyes at me and shoved a spoonful of food into his mouth.

"Ugh, you're no help!" I turned away from him and began to walk off.

"He'll be back buddy. I promise you'll get your crush back!"

I froze and spun around but the boy I was talking to was gone.

When I got home I was met with Abby in the kitchen eating a sandwich. I waved at her and headed upstairs. I ignored my other siblings as I passed them and I entered the well equipped room dad was in more often.

"Hey Roman," dad said as he turned around and noticed my presence, after he put a few silver bottles on a shelf.

"Hey."

"Do you want to go on a hunt?"

What? Oh yeah. Hunting season was on right now. That's right, I completely forgot. I let myself escape into my own mind. I could go and miss a bunch of school, or miss out on a bonding trip with my dad. I weighed the two options. If I don't go I will still have to deal with the all the social crap going on AND a missing Virgil. However, if I do go I might be able to clear my mind of the Emo Nightmare. I chewed on my bottom lip while making a decision.

"Okay, I'll go."
