How Come I Never Asked You About Your Day? (DISCONTINUED)

Two.

Virgil knew there was something wrong.

Ruffling his hair in a stressed manner, the shaking personality knocked on Roman's bright red door. He stuffed his hands into his hoodie pockets to conceal their trembling as Roman opened the door to his room. Being the more... confident side, he had decorated his room accordingly. It smelled of teakwood and Abercrombie, and didn't look too far off from it either. Maroon paint covered the walls with a gold trim, and white detail near the corners. He had an over-the-top canopy bed [that Virgil could confirm felt as nice as it looked from previous nights] and other furniture that complimented this side nicely. It was strange how none of it was ruined anymore as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Wassup, babe?"

Never mind, Roman was still awful.

"..gonna ignore that pet name for now. Have you seen Patton lately? I'm hungry and he's the best cook out of all of us."

Virgil used hunger as an excuse to look for Patton. Yes, his stomach growled, but he was genuinely worried. Normally, the bubbly version of himself would be all over Virgil by now, checking in on him and making dinner for the rest of them. Virgil once thought that Patton was annoying with all of his parent-like actions, but now that he was gone? He felt like... he missed Patton. Weirdly so.

"Uuh, no, not that I can remember. Why?"

Virgil was shocked. His mind had led him to believe that Patton was ignoring him alone, but now Roman?

Virgil definitely knew something was wrong.

"Okay, thanks anyways."
"Anytime, pet." Roman winked and shut the door, as Virgil's face heated up beneath the foundation covering his cheeks.
"And no more flirty nicknames!!"

Thirteen hours. It had been thirteen hours since Virgil saw Patton. Little did he know that the happy-go-lucky side was trying desperately to fix the paint in his room. He could feel it though. He would normally be able to see everyone's anxiety worsen, but he could feel Patton's.

This is when Virgil knew that something was sickeningly, horribly wrong.
