Two weeks of Remus' stay in the Dark Side Realm..

Patton lay on his bed alone in his room, holding a tear-stained pillow close to his chest. He had been crying non-stop, and not even his room had been much help to him like he thought it would be.

Patton's feelings of grief were too strong even for the jolt of happiness his room brought to be fixed.

He missed Remus so much, and the pain that followed was something that needed time to heal. Lots, and lots of time.

Patton sobbed as quietly as he could, praying and hoping the others wouldn't hear.

He had told the other sides around an hour ago that he wanted to be alone in his room. Logan, Roman and Virgil were all fine with this, understanding that Patton needed time.

The others were just as upset too however.

Roman's guilt still resided with him, and over the past two weeks that guilt of losing Remus had driven him to try and plan or figure out any was possible to get him back.

Virgil tried to get Roman to give up on it when the Prince would listen to him, but he missed Remus too. The anxious side had lost a dear friend to him, however, he wanted to let it go since dwelling on the past wasn't always the correct answer.

It was also no doubt that Virgil and Roman's feelings for each other grew, but neither of them admitted it. 

Logan was also upset about Remus leaving, but he refused to show emotion as usual. But who would be his test subject for all of his scientific experiments now? Of course that wasn't the only reason, the logical side too had lost a close and dear friend to him. But the side pushed his feelings away, and wanted to focus on mending Patton's.

So it was no surprise when he secretly felt a bit useless after Patton said he wanted some alone time.

But Patton tried to think of things that would usually make him happy, in any attempt to avoid these unhappy feelings.

'Puppies..Kittens..Singing..Movie nights with my family..Logan..Wait.' Patton's thoughts stopped in their tracks. He suddenly felt his sad feelings dilute just a little at the thought of the intelligent side.

Patton turned over onto his back and looked up at the stars painted onto his ceiling. "Do I..like Logan?" He asked himself aloud.

Patton thought for a moment and decided to test
it. He sighed gently before thinking about Logan. Images of him flashing through the moral trait's mind, memories of him too.

"Are you alright there, Patton?"

"Salutations, Patton. How are you today?"

Patton realised he was giggling to himself, his cheeks noticeably got warmer and flushed pink, and he felt butterflies fluttering in his stomach.
