 I woke up all warm and fuzzy. I noticed that Virgil and I were in the same position we were in last night. I think I- I think I'm falling for him which sucks cause I doubt he's falling for me. Ugh I sound like a teenage girl. As much as I wanted to move to make sure Virgil wouldn't get mad at me or uncomfortable, I didn't move. He was warm and I felt safe. I felt like I was with someone who gets me. I sighed thinking of my past with... the dark sides and adjusted a little. I think I might have woken Virgil up, because he moved a little. I didn't know what to do so I panicked and pretended to be asleep.

"Oh shit, what do I do?" Virgil whispered.

"I'd have to admit, she's adorable when she's asleep" Virgil whispered again while moving my hair out of my face.

"boo" I whispered opening my eyes. Virgil jumped.

"You heard t-that didn't you" Virgil asked.

"I think it's sweet" I replied.

"Really?" he asked. I nodded smiling at him.

"Is this okay?" He asked again. I nodded again.

"You're warm and I'm always sad so this is a nice change of pace." I explained making him chuckle.

"Why are you always sad? If you don't mind" Virgil asked. I sighed and scooted a little away to lean on my side and face him.

"I was apart of Y/n's dark sides. Depression, Intrusive thoughts, and Insecurity. They had me convinced for a while that this is who I wanted to be, what I was destined for. To be on the team of bad guys. I appeared back in 6th grade for Y/n. It was tough working with Luna. Not really working with her, but just arguing a lot. When Y/n actually met me, she thought I was the bad guy too. That changed about a year ago when she finally started to accept me for who I was. Most days I'll get panic attacks from memories that those days bring. Sometimes they'll happen randomly. It comes with being anxiety. You would know. Anyway, I was bullied by the other sides, except Cherry, which has thankfully stopped for the most part. I still know they think I'm a monster" I rambled not knowing I had tears falling down my face. Virgil looked taken aback.

"I'm sorry I just made things weird" I told him laying on my back starting at the ceiling.

"No, you didn't! It's okay I've felt like that all the time" Virgil told me grabbing my hand. I turned on my side again.

"You have? I had no idea" I said quietly.

"It comes with the job" Anxiety told me making me snicker.

"I don't think you're a monster, Noah. I think you're just misunderstood. Like me." Virgil told me.

"Thanks. It means a lot, actually." I told him.

"Now, can we get back to doing what we were doing before? I'm cold now" I told him. He chuckled and nodded. I wrapped my arms around Virgil and relaxed into him. I felt Virgil sigh before wrapping his arms around me.

"Wanna know what my trick is to calming down during a panic attack?" Virgil asked. I nodded.

"Breath in for 4 seconds, hold for 7 seconds, then breathe out for 8. Do that until you're breathing normally." Virgil told me.

"Thank you" I told him.

"Anytime" Virgil told me kissing my forehead. I giggled and then covered my mouth.

"Did you just giggle?" Virgil asked trying not to laugh.

"I think I did" I answered back looking shocked.

"I didn't know I could do that. Weird" I said in a quiet voice. I heard snickering.

"Are you serious snickering right now?" I asked Virgil.

"Maybe" He replied. I glared at him playfully before a silence set over us.

"Hey Noah?" He asked.

"Hm?" I asked looking up at him.

"Do you think maybe uh I could ask you out one day?" Virgil asked nervously.

"If you did, I just might say yes" I told him. Even though it was dark, I could still see his blush.

"Should we get up" I asked.

"Nah" he replied. I chuckled.

"But Virgil" I whined.

"Nope. You're too warm." Virgil told me wrapping his arm tighter around me. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't extremely comfortable right now.

"Are we ever gonna get up?" I asked him.

"Nah. I'm comfortable" He told me.

"Hey, let's make a bet" I blurted randomly.

"Sure, why not. What about?" Virgil asked.

"Which of the sides are gonna get into a relationship first. Like an official one?" I asked.

"Can I count us?" Virgil asked smirking.

"Smooth. Maybe. It depends." I replied a little nervous. Virgil chuckled.

"I'll only ask if you're ready, don't worry. I'm not a love at first sight kinda guy. That's Roman." Virgil explained.

"Same with Luna. Anyway, my guess is Patton and Cherry." I told him.

"I would say Roman and Luna" He told me. I nodded.

"Solid choice. Watch. We're gonna both be wrong and it's gonna end up being Morgan and Logan" I told him. Virgil laughed.

"Speaking of relationships, how early would you consider to be too early to start a relationship?" Virgil asked.

"Depends how well you connect with the person. As for like time I would say maybe after a week of knowing each other would be appropriate to ask someone out" I replied. Virgil nodded.

"I'll keep that in mind" Virgil told me winking. I blushed.

"Okay, now we have to get up" I told him. He

"Fine" He groaned before letting me go as we both got out of bed.

"I get the bathroom this time" I told him before running in there and shutting the door. I heard a larger groan and chuckled. I changed into my normal outfit and made sure my eye shadow was on right.

"I'm good!" Virgil called out.

"Alright!" I called back coming out.

"Still beautiful" Virgil told me. I blushed looking down. Virgil grabbed my hand and we walked downstairs. Y/n waved at me and I waved back before sitting on the couch with Virgil. We talked, ate, watched some movies. Y/n actually ended up taking a nap before coming back down. Roman and Luna picked the greatest showman and I got excited before they all looked at me. I put my hood up when I felt Virgil grab my hand. I blushed and scooted closer to him. Anyway, I was all cuddled up to Virgil while we watched the movie. Today was a good day.
