(A/N hopefully some logicality in the next chapter, hope you guys are enjoying it!)

Logan could not deny that he likes spending time with Virgil. The fascination they share towards the night sky and everything in it, talking about emotions and how none of them could really deal with it and just enjoying his presence in general. He liked- no, he enjoyed spending time with the emo next door.

An example could be now. He and Virgil were sat together, enjoying each other's presence. They were both sat in Logan's living room, Unlike where they would normally sit where they were on opposite sides, they were only a few centimetres apart. Logan liked this.

It was after a few moments of comfortable silence that one of them made a move. It was Virgil. He turned to the man with the glasses and breathed in, preparing to announce something. Logan waited with anticipation.

"L-Logan" He started, the man in question gave him his full attention "I l-"

Logan bolted upright in his bed, breathe rigged and his mind was clouded in confusion. His hair was a mess.

"What?" He breathed out in a whisper. His chest rising and lowering at an alarming rate. Was he sick? He pressed his hand against his forehead. Just a little higher than usual. Logan didn't count the fact that he was breathing heavily, increasing his blood pressure and increasing his temperature.

He sighed and fell back into his pillows, rolling over and grabbing his glasses. As soon as he could see clearly he picked up his phone and called in sick to work. Just to be on the safe side, he would hate if he got others sick. It would be a big inconvenience.

After a while, he sat down with a cup of coffee and a book. The smart man didn't know what that dream was, he was starting to forget it anyway.

Logan took a sip of his beverage and opened the book that he would be indulged in for the rest of the day. The thing was, he couldn't help but feel like he was missing something… Or someone.

-

The book closed with a slam. Logan was planning to only read one book today but he was on his third one. Since he was 'sick' then he could not take a walk and visit the library to get another, all of the books he owned have already been read countless times.

The man sighed as he lifted himself up from the seat and went on his way to grab another book. He enjoyed reading very much but finds it annoying that he had no other books to read. His eyes skimmed through the titles.

Every book he saw has been read enough times by him for him to know the lines off by heart; he didn't know if it was a good or bad thing. In the end, he decided to leave it for now and grabbed a dictionary. Reading the meaning of words doesn't hurt, right?

Of course, you may think reading a dictionary would be boring but Logan says that it'll expand your knowledge of words and have various types of words to pick from. Everyone dismissed it as nonsense.

He returned to his original spot and opened the book in silence, only listening to the streets outside that were beginning to fill with people. Of course, it's 1pm, lunch time.

The words were never processed in Logans mind as he 'read' through the book, they passed through his mind. He wasn't focused on anything, really, just daydreaming about something. Then he was pulled away from his thoughts, as he always is when he has a peaceful moment.

"If you're sick shouldn't you be in bed?" Virgil asked, leaning against the doorway with his arms crossed. Logan shook his head in confusion and the other chuckled as they walked forwards. The door cowed behind them.

The geek felt his cheeks warm up and that feeling was in his stomach again. Logan looked back up at the emo.

"May I ask how did you get in here, Virgil?" Logan said, closing the book and placing it beside him. Virgil fell down beside him after he quickly picked up the book.

Virgil looked at the cover and said "A dictionary? Really, nerd? Plus you have already asked that--Anyway you good, man?"

"Well I do feel better now. For some ubsurd reason" Logan answered, not really noticing what his words could mean to his homophobic self. Virgil smiled and cooed.

"Aw! Is it because I'm here?" The other couldn't help but smile when Virgil leaned in towards him "Did I make Logey feel better"

The geek pushed the emo away and corrected his glasses "'Logey'? I have never been called that" They stated.

"Heh, anyway Patton says I should be out more. You could'a guessed what I said but he says I should. So, I came here to see if you wanted to go out with me because there is no way in hell I'm going outside by myself"

Logan thought about it. It was like a mini argument in his head. Half of him saying he was sick but the other half saying he should. That half didn't have a reason but Logan knew he wanted to 'hang out' with Virgil. So, he accepted and they got ready to go out.
