Operation Prinxiety (With a Side of Logicality)

Chapter Fourteen

Virgil's POV

It's been a week since that mushy moment.

I hate mushy moments. 

Now Princey is always trying to do these... what does he call them... "noble deeds" to me. It's fucking terrifying.

He tried that yogurting thing again too. Said he wanted to connect with me more. So he spit yogurt at me again. 

Today, I wanted to try and avoid his "noble deeds" for once. At least this morning.

I slowly walk out of my room, afraid to even make any noise. I get to the stairs. And I hear a noise behind me. I jump high and that's when I saw my life flash through my eyes. 

I trip over my steps and almost go face first into the steps when there was a sudden stop. Someone grabbed my hood to my hoodie. Saving me in the fall but not really helping me with my breathing.

The hoodie yanked suddenly, causing my hoodie to squeeze up against my throat. I gagged and grabbed my hoodie in attempts to stop whoever it was from fucking choking me. A strong arm wrapped around my stomach and pulled me back up the steps. I fell onto my butt at the feet of Roman who was looking at me with worry.

"I'm sorry I scared you! I didn't realize I'd almost make you fall down the stairs." He let out a amused breath and offered a hand to help me up. I took it reluctantly with one hand and still rubbing my throat with the other.

"Thanks." I mumbled quietly. 

"Your throat okay?" 

"It's fine, you just tugged on my hoodie a little too violently."

"Sorry about that. I'm just glad you didn't break your face." he joked. I huffed.

"Yeah, I am too. Thanks for that." We stood their awkwardly for a few minutes.

"So..." he said after a while. "we should probably go down for breakfast."

"Probably." Another minute passes.

"I'mma just." he scooted around me and trotted down the stairs after sending me a small smile. I returned it weakly, cursed myself for being so awkward and followed him down. 

Logan's POV

The group chat has been spammed with "I ship it"'s.

I don't understand. 

Patton explained ship once again and now I'm even more confused.

Why are they saying that? We are in the group chat because we do. So why would they need to say it anymore? They are strange.

Patton's POV

I cooked omelets for the four of us for breakfast. I enjoyed cooking but I couldn't get my mind off Roman and Virgil. They were getting along much better now. But how else should we drop hints? We've already made incredible progress. So I was happy about that.

But what comes next?

Roman is more likely to acknowledge his feelings. And I'm pretty sure he knows that we know now. But Virgil needs a push in the right direction. He's too anxious to acknowledge much less act upon his feelings. The best we get out of him is the bright blushes that manage to seep through his foundation every once in a while.

When I heard heavy footsteps come down the stairs, only then did I break out of my thoughts and realize I was almost burning the omelets.

"aaaAAAAAAA." I quickly took the pans off the stove and shoved them onto the counter next to it. I sighed and laughed. I turned to see who was down.

Logan was still reading at the table but Roman had decided to do his usual dramatic reveal. Virgil followed him slowly. I could see the blush today.

I wonder what happened this time
