Eventually, Virgil fell asleep on me and I sat him down next to Roman.

What if I was wrong? What if Virgil and Deceit were just friends? What if I just ruined everything by telling Romans brother?

I sigh.

Whatever, I'm tired right now.

I sink down into Romans mind.

•••

(Romans pov)

Black. That's all I see. Just black.

It feels like I'm asleep. Except I'm not dreaming...

I can feel a small pain in my arm and a tiny weight on my shoulder. I can also tell that I'm sitting up.

Am I in a coma?

I think over what happened, the entire scene replaying in my mind.

I feel like I could hear lots of shouting and yelling after I collapsed, but I'm not sure.

Suddenly, a very-hard-to-understand memory pops into my head.

(In memory)

"Virgil." Somebody who sounded like Remus said.

"But he's cheating on Roman with Deceit! He wouldn't want to help Roman!" Another person, Xela, says.

A door slams closed.

"Are you fucking kidding me, Deceit?!" Remus's muffled voice yells.

"What?" An even more muffled Deceit's voice asks.

"You know exactly what I'm talking about! You're cheating on me with Virgil!"

"No I'm not? Why would I do that? Remus, I love you. Not Virgil. Me and him are just friends."

"Whatever! Roman needs your help, Virgil!"

"Remus, that hurts! Stop!" Virgil's cry's get louder and louder untill my door opens and closes.

A few more quiet sobs and a quiet whisper are heard before Virgil speaks again.

"Who the hell are y- Roman!"

(Out of memory)

I'm guessing that that happened while I fainted.

I try to open my eyes but to no avail.

Suddenly, I feel the weight on my shoulder shift.

"Ugh." It grunts. "Ow! Fuck!"

Virgil?

I try to talk but my body doesn't allow me to.

"...Why would Remus think that I was cheating on Roman with Deceit?" Virgil mumbles. "Why would I even do that? I love Roman and only Roman."

Wait, so he's not cheating on me? I thought he was though.

I feel a light kiss on my forehead and arms wrap around me, embracing me in a hug.

I try to hug back with all of my strength, but all I can manage is a finger twitch.

Virgil apparently saw it because then I heard,

"Roman? Are you awake?"

He moves away from the hug.

Noooooo, I still wanna hug you back.

"Are you in a coma or something?"

I try to move my finger again as a sign.

I think I'm in a coma?

Jesus Christ, moving a finger should not be as hard as it is right now.

I move my finger despite what I think and I hear a gasp.

"Wait, but then you could be in a coma for like 2 years!"

Well then let's hope that I don't.

"I know it's hard, but could you try to open your eyes? It'll help you get out of a coma. If you're even in a coma-"

Oh god, I'm already exhausted from moving my finger twice. Do I really have to open my eyes?

I try as hard as possible to open my eyes. And it does take around 30 seconds, but I did, actually, manage to open them.

I see Virgil sitting next to me, and I look all over him.

After seeing black for hours, it looks amazing to see other colors.

"You did it!" He gasps. "Baby, I thought you wouldn't be able to!"

He hugs me, but as he is, I take a glance at his arm.

A deep purple bruise wraps all the way around it.

Tears start to pool up in my eyes.

"Ro? Why are you crying?" Virgil asks, separating the hug.

I look down to his wrist and he follows my eyes.

"Oh... Um... Remus did that..." He looked at the floor.

WHAT?!

"He went into my room all mad or something and then dragged me out and put me in here to help you." He explained.

I'm gonna fucking kill Remus for this.
