Okay, so this was supposed to be relating to Thomas' song Things We Used To Share, an angst between Virgil and Roman but quickly turned happy so??? I don't know, hope you enjoy.

Things we used to share

    Roman hated what happened a week ago. But he hates what's happening right now more than what happened a week ago. His ex-boyfriend, Virgil, was crying softly, cuddled up on the corner of his bed, blankets piled around him.
    Roman didn't mean it... He didn't intend to lash out like he had. They were arguing like always... It started out playful and teasing, but it turned venomous all to quickly.
    Roman was once again going off how his ex-boyfriend needed to loosen up a bit. Give Thomas a chance to succeed without fear. But, Virgil being Thomas' anxiety, had other ideas. It was the same thing, like always. Insults that didn't hurt either of them. Taunting back and forth...
    Until Roman said something he knows he will regret for the rest of their lives.
"Virgil! You need to let Thomas meet the prince of his dreams! Loosen up, Charlie Frown!" Roman hissed.
"He can, but right now he has stuff he needs to be doing!" Virgil retorted, being himself like always. Protective over Thomas.
"Oh, so just because you and I broke up means he can't be happy either?!"
    Virgil froze. They had both agreed that they wouldn't bring it up. Both felt the same thing, it wasn't anything wrong. They both knew they weren't for each other. They both accepted it, Virgil went to Patton for comfort and that left Logan to help Roman. And both Patton and Logan worked hard to keep them happy, Logan struggling the slightest, only to find how much Roman loves Space almost as much as Logan does. Almost.
    But Roman just brought it up so harshly, so bitterly that it tore a gash through Virgil's heart. Virgil ran off, not knowing how to react. They made a promise, "No hard feelings. It's okay, we tired, and some things don't work out. We don't have to bring it up, Virgil. It's okay," Roman had said. Right, we don't have to bring it up, do we Roman? Virgil half snarled half cried in his head.
    Now Roman is here, watching what he did to his best friend. Roman cares for him, obviously. Once they broke up, it wasn't harsh like some break ups. They both agreed they'd be friends. They trusted each other enough for that.
    Patton rose up next to Roman, holding a soft and sad expression, "How bad, kiddo?"
"I... I didn't mean it," Roman whispers back, tears forming in his own eyes.
"I know... Just, give him some time..." Patton says with a sad smile, one that tried to hold reassurance, Roman could tell it would be hard for Virgil to calm down.
    Roman sinks out, teleporting to Logan's room instantly. "Logan—"
"I am aware," Logan says simply, not turning from his computer. "There isn't much to say."
"Logan please. I have to know if he could ever forgive me!" Roman cries.
"Time, Roman. Give it time," Logan says, turning in his chair, looking hurt as well. "Time."
"L-Logan?" Roman whispers, seeing the expression on Logan's normally nonchalant face.
"You swore to him you wouldn't bring it up— You swore to both Patton and I. You broke a promise. Roman you lied. To him, to Patton, and to me," Logan says, glancing away. "I will not help you anymore. Once Virgil forgives you, I will, too."

***

    About a month has passed since then, and Roman has beaten himself up everyday for it. But, he knows he needs Logan's forgiveness... Something about Logan not being there for him tore him apart. All he knows is it hurts to know that.
"Virgil...?" He asks, carefully entering the living room where the darker trait is sitting alone.
"What, Sir Sing-A-Lot?" He says calmly.
"I... I wanted to apologize. I've... I messed up really bad, and I'm so sorry... I hurt you beyond words, and... And I'm so sorry, Virgil. You didn't deserve to be exposed to that..." Roman says while pain floods through him, causing him to choke on his own words.
"Princey, princey, princey..." Virgil says, shaking his head, a mischievous grin on his face. "When did you become so soft?"
"Since the day I watched you cry because a heroic prince like me became the villain!" Roman hisses, backing down right after, fearful that this could turn south... Toward hell.
"Yeah, I know. I can hear you, dumbass," Virgil says, standing up. "Your room is right next to mine, idiot. I heard you practicing what you were going to say."
"You...You did?!" Roman says, fearful of what else he could have heard.
"Roman, you are Thomas' Creativity. You will never learn to shut up. But I am learning to forgive. Patton has been explaining how hurt you've been. I forgive you," Virgil says with a small smile.
"R-really?" Roman asks, bewildered.
"Yeah," Virgil says, his sudden devious grin growing back. "Just don't let it happen again, Princey. Or Logan might find out about your little crush."
"Who got crushed?!" Logan says quickly, popping up from the fear someone is hurt.
"Dear Zeus, Lo...gan," Roman finishes, quickly getting rid of the nickname.
"Nice save, Princey," Virgil mutters. "And no one, Logan. Princey and I over here were using figurative language again, s'all."

Like I said, not a lot to deal with the song, so... Might be a part 2, might not. We shall see....
(Yes there may have been a hidden Moxiety and definitely an obvious Logince.)
