"You ok, Virgil?" At the moment, the answer to that was he didn't know. Virgil was sitting there staring at his phone and frowned. Princey was going out with friends. Friends that according to Pain could result in the possibility of a boyfriend. Virgil narrowed his eyes as he read and reread his texts over and over again. Virgil was... happy. Yeah, he was happy. So what if Princey was going out tonight? Who cares if he even did get a boyfriend? Virgil didn't care. They didn't even know each other so why did it matter? It wasn't like the mere thought of Princey finding someone else caused Virgil chest to tighten in anxiety. No... definitely didn't cause Virgil any pain. "Virgil?"

"So when is Mr. Perfect, supposed to get here?" Virgil could see the way Patton frowned as Virgil forced himself to put his phone away. He already knew Patton could tell something happened. Even if nothing actually really did.

"Did something happen with Prin..."

"I'm here." Virgil frowned as Patton spun around to reveal a slightly disheveled Roman once again hiding behind shades. Virgil couldn't help but notice how Roman was out of breath an slightly shaken but had that familiar bright smile he always had. Roman laughed as he fixed himself up. One thing Virgil noted with slight disdain at himself... Roman looked good with bleach blonde hair. "Sorry about that, guys. Kai refused to let me out of the room."

"Kai?" Roman smiled at Patton who was trying to work through his thoughts. "Oh, Kai Rivers! That's your partner right?" Partner? Virgil watched the interaction between the two and sighed as he hugged himself a bit. He's still hung up on pain talking about Princey being on a date. Why did that upset him so much? It didn't make any sense.

"Yeah. He was a pain." Virgil tensed as Roman laughed again with a beaming smile. A smile that didn't feel quite right. "Anyway, why don't we get going, yes?" Patton giggled as Roman nearly collapsed in a dramatic pose. "I'm exhausted... and hungry. Where are we going anyway?"

"The Sands Buffet." Roman tensed looking over to see Virgil standing there with a neutral gaze. There was this slight flash in the actor's eyes as Virgil rolled his. "And we better hurry too, thanks to the VampPrince here..." Roman cringed as Virgil turned around. "...are reservation might have been snagged."

"You don't make a reservation at Sands." Virgil only smiled as he waved Patton off.

"You don't... I take any advantage I get." Roman narrowed his eyes as he followed the two as they went. Patton drove them both to this building with golden lights cascading down the whitewashed walls making everything look like a dream. Virgil stuffed his hands into his hoodie as he slowly walked up to the podium and smiled. He glanced around spotting a man leaning against the counter with his usually fancy drink in his hands just staring at the crowd behind his shades.

"Still wearing those old sunglasses huh?" The man smiled brightly as he turned to see Virgil smirking at him. The confusion in Roman was clear as Virgil crossed his arms. "If I knew you wouldn't take them off, I never would have gotten them."

"Oh, stop your teasing cuz!" Virgil laughed as he got slammed into a hug practically holding the guy up as they dramatically leaned against them. "Save me. I'm so tired... This job is going to be the death of me."

"Remy?!" The two laughed as Patton joined them with a smile. Remy spotted him immediately and hugged him too.

"Pattycakes. It's been too long." Patton only giggled as Remy took a sip of his coffee. "Emile's been going crazy. Say's we should all get together again. Apparently he wants you and Cassidy to..." That was when he spotted Roman shifting awkwardly by the podium still. Roman was feeling out of place. Remy only narrowed his eyes as he pointed lazily at the man. "When did Rem..." His eyes went wide. 

"Hey... there." Roman smiled hiding his shaking hands in his pockets as he joined the group. Virgil frowned as he noticed the way Roman's eyes darted around anxiously despite the bright smile he had. Were all actor's like that? "I'd introduce myself but..."

"Emile's gonna fucking flip." Patton playfully slapped Remy's arm but the other paid no attention to it. "No seriously. Like I said he really wants us all to get together. A sort of family reunion. If he finds out that Remus's twin was back in town..."

"Wait, what?" Remy rolled his eyes as Roman narrowed his in confusion.

"He's the low down, sugar. So pay attention." Roman could only nod. "The name's Jeremy Sutton. I'm engaged to Patton's older brother Emile making me his future brother in law. I'm also Virgil's cousin. Cassidy is Patton's twin, making him another future brother of mine. He's in a very serious relationship with your twin Remus." Remy smirked as he pretended to whisper just to Virgil, even though it was loud enough for us all to hear. "If one of them doesn't pop the question soon I will drown them both in coffee." Virgil could help but laugh as Remy brushed his hair back smiling. "Anyway, those two are a serious item, so Emile already considers Remus as a part of the family, making his twin one too. And trust me when I say Emile is big on family. If he finds out you're here forget about any plans you may have this weekend, he will drag your ass to the house for a cookout."

"You're going to tell him aren't you?" Virgil whispered with a smirk making Remy's smirk even more devious as he sipped his coffee.

"Oh, sis... I live for drama." Remy laughed as he grabbed the menus and started off before twirling around with a raised brow at them. "You coming? Got your table already set."
