Roman pov
I was in my room singing Disney songs when I felt Thomas summoning me. I smiled and fixed my hair, more than ready for a sanders sides video considering all the drama lately.

I arrived in Thomas's living room with a huge smile.

"The Prince has arrived!" I sang loudly. When I turned to see everyone, I was greeted with no camera and a crying Thomas. Shit.

Quickly after me, Patton and Logan showed up. Patton was here for barely a second before rushing over and comforting Thomas.

"What happen?" Asked Patton holding onto Thomas. Me and Logan came over to Thomas.

"I messed up." Said Thomas, shaking horribly.

I recognized how'd Thomas was acting. Shaking and crying. Obvious signs of a panic attack.

"What has Virgil done now?" I asked angrily.  "beside obviously causing you a panic attack."

Logan let out a sigh, but Patton didn't say anything. Thomas started shaking his head.

"No it's my own fault." Said Thomas, which caused him to start sobbing. Logan took a step back.

"I am not one for understanding emotions but if you could please elaborate on what happened, we might be able to help you." Said Logan.

Thomas nodded but didn't say anything. Patton rubbed Thomas's back and pulled him into a tighter hug.

"It's okay kiddo, you tell us when you feel like it." Said Patton softly.

"I hurt Virgil." Whispered Thomas.

"How?" I Asked.

"He caught me taking anxiety pills and he didn't believe me when I said they were just painkillers." Said Thomas, his voice very quiet.

"I'm guessing he didn't take it well." I Said.

"No, and yes." Said Thomas. "I don't think he believed me, but it caused us to get in a bit of an argument and he gave a lot of anxiety and I said something horrible to him."

"I'm sure it can't be that bad." Said Patton.

"We haven't seen him in a week and than I told him something horrible and now he's hiding again." Said Thomas starting to sob again.

"For the love of Crofters Thomas, please enlighten us on what you said to Virgil." Said Logan.

"I told him I wished he never become a side." Whispered Thomas.  We all gasped, even Logan. 

"We need to find him!"  Said Patton now getting extremely worked up. 

"I agree with Patton."  I said, suddenly feeling very worried for the anxious side.  I hope he's okay. 

"Thomas please try to summon Virgil."  Begged Patton.  "It's not good for the rest of us to be in his room so just try to bring him to us." 

Thomas nodded, but made no move to summon Virgil.  I sighed. 

"Thomas please, we need to know that he's okay."  I Said.  "Try, please." 

Thomas nodded and this time closed his eyes to summon Virgil.  Nothing happens for a while. 

"Hey guys."  Said Thomas quietly.  We all turned towards him.  "I'm not feeling Virgil's presence.  At all." 

I looked quickly over a Patton as a bad feeling started to well up inside me. 

"Maybe he just ducked out again?"  Said Patton hopefully. 

"We need to check on him."  Said Logan, heading towards the stairs.  I followed him, Patton and Thomas right behind me. 

We walked down the hallways towards the end.  As we neared Virgil's room, it seemed as if the entire hallway was getting steadily darker. 

Soon we reached an all black door.  I looked at it with uncertainty.  I stayed quiet, hoping I'd hear some noise from the room.  Nothing.  Not even the faded hum on that music he listens to. 

Patton walked up to the door and knocked. 

"Hey kiddo, are you doing okay?"  He asked.  No response.  The dread in my stomach grew larger. 

"Virgil!"  Patton said loudly, obvious panic in his voice.  He banged on the door.  "Virgil please answer your scaring us!" 

"Move aside Patton."  I said.  Logan pulled Patton out of the way and into a tight hug.  Both Thomas and Patton are shaking. 

I charged and rammed the door with my shoulder.  The door barely budged.  I rammed into it again at full force.  This time the door gave a bit and let out a cracking sound. 

I ran into the door again, and this time the door gave.  The hinges creaked loudly as the bolt snapped and the door snapped open into the wall.  I fell into the room, breathing heavily. 

Behind me I heard Patton let out a chocked sob.  Both Logan and Thomas let out, oh my gods. 

I looked up and came face to face with Virgil's feet.  Hanging, slowly swinging back and forth. 

The sight I saw when I raised my head completely is something that will haunt me for the rest of my life.
