The Timeless Prince

11

The boys casually walk into the viewing room silently and take their seats. Virgil chose the outer seat which Roman willing let him take. Roman had the popcorn in his lap and just smiled with excitement. He was so happy that Virgil picked this one. In all actuality, he was going to pick whatever Virgil chose anyway but Roman had been dying to see this, so he was happy.

Virgil reached out to take some popcorn not really paying much attention as the movie started only to notice Roman shift quite suddenly. He turned to see Roman holding the popcorn out away from him making sure not to touch Virgil at all. Even the way he was sitting in the chair was clearly to avoid contact and Virgil didn't see how it was a very comfortable position. It was... surprising to see. Virgil never thought Roman would try so hard not the break one of Virgil's rules.

As the movie went one, Virgil couldn't help but hum along. He's heard the soundtrack so many times he had every song memorized. Every word was timed perfectly with the movie. He couldn't help but smile. One good thing about living for so long...

They didn't have music like this back then. 

Roman tensed hear the unfamiliar lull next to him. His eyes went wide as he looked over to see Virgil humming along. He couldn't hold back the smile as he shifted again just to make sure Virgil was comfortable. Time ticked past and he found his attention solely on the man beside him. Virgil at this point was singing along, very quietly but still... It made Roman smile to know that Virgil felt comfortable enough to do so. 

Roman was happy. He was happy because he was there listening to awesome music by an amazing artist next to the one man... the one that he... The one man that doesn't like him. Roman side as he looked away trying to focus back on the movie. It wasn't working though. His mind was clouded. He stared off blankly as his mind pulled him under, getting lost in his thoughts.

"Ok, so what about this?" Roman was sitting there across from Thomas helping the host work on the script for the upcoming video. Thomas wanted to do more with Virgil and had asked Roman for some help since Roman was a writer. "We could do... I don't know."

"Well, what is the video going to be based around?" Thomas sighed as Roman placed his pencil behind his ear and fixing his glasses. "You said you wanted it to be a Virgil video so... why not try to pinpoint what Virgil's having trouble with this weak." Roman narrowed his eyes in thought until snapping his fingers with a wide grin. "What about that interview thing he did?"

"What interview?" Roman frowned as Thomas shot him this look. Did Virgil really not talk to Thomas about it?

"Virgil had this meeting with some art guy about a painting he had done a while back." Thomas's eyes went wide as Roman scratched the back of his neck. "He came back in this really bad mood saying he fucked it all up because he had a bit of an attack before the meeting. Maybe it would be a good idea to do something about that?"

"Good idea? I don't think so Princey." Roman jumped at Virgil's sudden appearance and frowned. Virgil was just sitting there on the arm of the couch with his legs crossed smirking like a mad man. Shit, it was a bad day. "In fact, I don't see how any idea coming from you is a good one."

"Virgil, nice to see you again." Roman glared over at the man who just laughed turning his attention to Thomas with a raised brow. He's just doing this to start shit... right? Why is it only ever Roman he targets on bad days anyway?

"Did you really think asking Princey for help was the right thing to do? The dudes a narcissistic grade A moron. You are better asking Logan for help at least he can give you realistic ideas." Roman could see the way Thomas tensed up. He knew where this was going. Even Roman could see it but that didn't stop him from responding. Now, he only wished he kept his mouth shut.
