Cookies And Wine

Chapter 9

Virgil had won, and victory tastes sweet. Virgil burst out laughing so hard he had to pull over to cool down. It was one of those deep bellied laughs where you couldn't breathe, and everytime you tried to calm down you would think about what happened again and burst out into another fit of laughter. Virgil was about to calm down when Roman said something that made him burst into a fit of giggles yet again. 

"OH MY GOSH! DO YOU HAVE ANYYYY INNOCENCE LEFT?!"

"I-I needed a c-come back" Virgil wheezed giggling hysterically

This was the one time in Roman's life where he actually wanted to die. His feelings were a mess. Everything that happened was just pure chaos. Virgil finally calmed down. His face was red from not being able to breathe. Virgil started the car and began to drive again.

"Oh my gosh that was everything"

"What?" 

"I'm saying it was beyond entertaining"

Roman didn't know what to say, so he simply kept his mouth shut.

"I'm sorry" Virgil said, his face starting to return to it's normal pale color

"For what?" Roman giggled

"All of that" Virgil laughed

Again, the prince didn't know how to respond, so he kept his mouth shut.

"Are you ok?" The dark man asked with a hint of concern in his voice

"Yep. Just thinking 'bout how much of your innocence is left"

"Hey you started it I'm gonna finish it"

"...mhm.."

"Anyways we shall move away from this topic"

"Yep" Roman said giggling

"Hmm, I'm sensing you hate me"

"Why?! Why would I hate you? When I have a cr- WHEN I CONSIDER YOU ONE OF MY FRIENDS" 

Roman didn't want Virgil thinking he hate him, but at the same time that was a close call. Roman saved it just in time.

“Woah, sorry”

“What?” 

“I didn't mean to make you feel bad or anything”

“Its ok I just wanted to make sure my cr- FRIEND WASN'T MAD AT ME”

DAMN WHAT’S WRONG WITH MEEEE, Roman thought. He was supposed to be an actor, someone who could, you know, act. But apparently when it comes to lying to the dark knight he simply couldn't keep his cool.

“No, no. If anything you should be the one mad at me”

“Why would I be mad at you?”

“Because I screamed out the window announcing to the world you got d in college”

“Yeah, yeah, yeah” Roman admitted turning a little red from embarrassment

Virgil parked his car next to Romans. Roman’s car was the only one their besides Virgil’s, not many people go to the bar at this hour. They both got out and walked onto the sidewalk.
