TW: suicide

Deceit and Remus were worried. They haven't heard from Virgil in a while. Now, that wasn't unusual. He would often interrupt the routine of his visits. That's just how he was. But this time it's different. When Virgil showed up the last time, he looked a lot more tired. Not the 'I wanna go to bed' kind of tired but the 'I wanna go to bed and never wake up ever again' kind of tired.

It was kinda obvious. Less sarcastic comments, sometimes he wouldn't response, his eyes seemed glassy most of the time. His eyeshadow wasn't as neat as usual, it was more smeared. He would just stop talking in the middle of a sentence and he was always wearing a tired or sad expression.
But Virgil always said he was fine.

And Deceit could feel the lies.

So now the two dark sides were in the living room of the light sides, looking at the shocked faces.
"Where's Virgil?", Deceit asked.

"What do you want from him?" Roman raises his sword, ready to protect his friends. Patton seemed nervous and Logan just rolled his eyes.

"I am worried about him. He seemed...a lot more tired recently", Deceit answered honestly. Roman raised his brow and Logan stood up.
"Care to elaborate?", he asked, watching Deceit closely.

The man sighed. "Virgil visits us sometimes and last time he did he just looked so...worn out. We haven't seen him in a while and we were getting worried"

The light sides looked at each other.
"I'll go check on him", Patton said, walking over to Virgil's black door.

Virgil was locked in his bathroom. The water in the bathtub had turned red by now. The boys eyelids grew heavy. He was just so tired... and he was ready to sleep. The last thing he heard was a knock on his door before everything turned quiet and black.

"Come on Virge, open up!", Patton grew worried. Virgil wasn't even responding. By now, the other four had arrived and Roman didn't hesitate to open the door by force. His face went pale.
Patton, worried about the boy, looked inside the room and let out a shocked scream. He quickly covered his mouth and turned away, starting to cry. Romans eyes let a few tears slip and Logan was shocked when he took a look, before running to the boy.

"I need something to stitch him up and a bandage!", he yelled while putting pressure on the wound. Remus made the needed things appear and gave them to Logan.
Deceit just stared at the scene in front of him blankly, a few tears slipping but except that, no response to what was happening.

Now they could only watch Logan and hope.
