Insult-Affection (Logince)

-Roman's POV-

Okay, I know it may seem contraversal to insult someone you like, but that's what I do. I'm not great at showing emotions, so I just end up throwing insults at the person. But I mean, friends do it all the time, right? I don't see the big deal.
At least, I never used to. I realize now how hard it is to get someone to understand that you like them without directly saying so.

If you're wondering who I like, you wouldn't believe me. I like Logan; he's so smart and articulated... And I mean, he and I do have to work together quite often.

Despite all of that...

"Hello, Microsoft Nerd!" I say, walking into the kitchen when I see Logan. He rolls his eyes and says, "Must you insult me everyday?"
"Who says my insults are a bad thing?" I say, halfway being genuine. He scoffs slightly and says, "Roman, common knowledge is that if someone insults you, they don't like you." I let out my own scoff and say, "Well, common knowledge can be wrong."

"Are you trying to say something, or?" he asks. "And if I am?" I ask. "Well, then, you're not doing very well at explaining it." He says. "Well, it's called insult-affection, Dr. Know-it-all." I say slightly sarcastically.

"Insult-affection is not a real word." he tells me. "Maybe, but it's a real thing." I retort.

-Logan's POV-

Honestly, Roman is so complicated sometimes.

"Pray tell, then." I say. He sighs and says, "Sometimes, people like to insult people they like, whether familial or romantically, instead of compliment them. I'm one of those people."
That's so... Unnecessary. What's that internet term... Extra. This is way too ‘extra’.

"Roman, that process seems extraordinary ridiculous and contraversal." I say. He chuckles and says, "Yeah, I suppose..." He truly is something.

Wait a minute-

I'm not supposed to be feeling this way; why am I feeling this way about Roman? Sure, we've had our moments, but... But why am I developing feelings for him?! I guess it's happened slowly over time, yet...

"Earth to Logan; are you there?" Roman says, waving his hand in my face. I snapped out of whatever that was and say, "I'm sorry, please repeat yourself?" I ask.
"I just said ‘So, what are you up to?’, but I'm not concerned about that anymore; are you alright?" he asks.

-Roman's POV-

Logan just... Spaced out. That's usually something only I do.

"I am alright." he says, though I highly doubt it by the way he looked to the side. "Seriously?" I ask. He nods and I glare at him. "Well, I don't believe you." I say.
He doesn't respond, so I just say, "Logan, talk to me."

He sighs and says, "I am the logical side; my purpose is to hold Thomas's information and advise him to do something or not to do it. I don't have time for silly things like emotions."
"Logan-" I start. He interrupts me by saying, "However, I can't seem to get you out of my mind. Every single waking second, all I want is for you to be near me. I thought I could ignore it, but I was completely wrong. Every time I see you, all I wish is for you to hold me and talk to me as if you cared about me. It's completely infuriating!"

I pause, shocked by everything I was hearing. He doesn't let me speak as he continues, "It wasn't even this bad for a while; your stupid insults - your ‘insult affection’ - only made me want you more! I don't call myself a masochist, but I wanted to kiss you even after you belittled me. I don't know how or why I got into this situation, but I'm madly in love with you, and I can't do anything about it!"

I stood there, not moving a single muscle. I couldn't believe that Logan just confessed to me...

-Logan's POV-

I couldn't stop talking after I started this ramble, and now Roman knows. He stands in front of me, seemingly shocked and slowly processing everything I had just said. I sigh and put my hand over my face and look down. I was actually crying, and I didn't want Roman to see that.

"...Logan. Look at me." Roman eventually says. I shake my head, and I hear him walk closer to me. He gently grabs my chin and lifts my head up. "Logan, why... How... I don't understand how you could keep that to yourself for so long..." he says, moving my hand away from my face. He smiles sadly at me and kisses me softly.

I feel my eyes widen, but I eventually melt into it and kiss him back. Roman puts his hands around my waist, and I  put mine on his shoulders. We break apart and he says, "You really need to learn how to express your feelings."
"I suppose you're right." I say with a faint smile on my face. "Honestly... Why didn't you just tell me? Or at least ask me to stop?" he asks.

"...You know, I hadn't... Wow. I hadn't even thought about that." I say, chuckling slightly as I say it. "Awww, you're smiling! That's so cute!" Roman says. I feel myself blush and say, "I-I've smiled before..."
"Yeah, but not often. I like your smile." Roman says before kissing me again. I kiss him back immediately this time, however, we were interrupted by Patton.

We pulled away embarrassed. He looks at us, blushes, and says, "Oh, I'm so sorry; should I-?"
"No, sorry, Patton. We'll leave." Roman says. I follow him, saying a quick apology to Patton on the way. Roman and I go to his room to continue what we were doing.

Patton forgave us, if you're wondering. He said it just took him by surprise; he actually congratulated us the next day for being in a relationship.
