Dad (Logicality/Complete)

Chapter 3: Isolated

(Warning: Swearing, oofy doofy ness)

    (Third person)
It has been several years since the day Virgil was taken away.

Logan was never able to tell Patton what happened before he was taken away, causing connection to be cut off for the whole year he was in prison. By the time he got out, he found out that Patton had moved out of state.

Logan was alone now.

He had gotten fired from the library, but continued his studies into science, eventually getting docterets in Chemical Engineering and Astronomy.

His personality had hardened greatly, causing him to isolate himself every moment he got. Often times the people in his town would avoid him or talk about him.

It was like this for years until one day.

Logan was at the library, reading a book on quantum physics when a single voice was able to break his concentration.

"Logan?!"

Logan shot his head up, being met with the blazing blue eyes of Patton Moral. He stared, his lips parted slightly in awe.

"Logan! It's me Patton! It's beem forever!" Patton walked over to Logan's table, sitting acrossed from him. "Wjat happened? You disappeared after the court date and I could only gather a few rumors to what happened."

Logan felt tears pinging at his eyes, but he blinked them back. 'No feelings. Feelings only hurt you.' Logan thought. "Salutations Patton. I would rather prefer we not speak about that day for it has brought me an infinitesimal ammount of pain."

Patton looked confused. "Infinitesimal? Doesn't that mean small?"

Logan looked confused, pulling out his phone and looked it up. "Oh.. I suppose it does. That was not what I was hoping to say."

Patton nodded. "I understand. So how have you been lately?"

Logan sighed. "I have been particularly bad as of late, but I do not wish to talk about it. How have you been as of late?"

Patton was taken back by Logan's improved grammer and big words. Last time they had talked, Logan was a loose, nice man. The man before him was more tight knit and cold. "I've beem doing great! I just moved back here last week."

Logan nodded, placing a book mark in his book closing it. He stood up, holding the book under his arm. "Congratulations. I really must me going now. It was lovely to speak with you again Patton." Logan nodded his head once before heading towards the door.

"Oh Logan! How's Virgil been?" Patton asked before he could leave.

Logan froze up, unable to move. He stared at the library doors. "I wouldn't know Patton. He was taken from me." Logan said before continueing out of the library.

Patton understood now why Logan didn't want to talk about the court day. He had lost.

The dad like man sighed. "The worst things happen to the best people." He murmured before leaving the library himself, heading home.

Once Logan got home, he collapsed onto his couch with a long sigh. His day kept getting worse and worse. He was used to the dirty looks and conversations ending as he walked by, but he was not expecting to see Patton and have a bad trip down memory lane.

He stared up at the ceiling where he had someone paint the galaxy, naming off every star in his head. Just when he felt content enough to get up, there was a knock on the door. He groaned and walked over, opening it annoyedly.

There stood a teenager. They were wearing a black shirt with black ripped jeans, a black beanie and a black jacket with purple patches all over. To top it off, they were wearing black eyeshadow, obviously hiding a black eyes.

"Are you Logan Sanders?" The boy asked, not making eye contact with Logan.

"Indeed I am... May I assist you?" Logan asked, feeling like he's seen this boy from somewhere.

"Yes.. Im your son."
