I sit Patton's POV

So... 

Logan is trans

That's...a new thing for me. I've always been gay and came out when I was about 12, and My family was really accepting. 

I still can't believe my dad is gone...

It was so sudden

A heart attack to be exact.

I know my mom is going to miss him, but she has my sister. She is 10 years old, but still a fluff ball like me, and I hope the news doesn't ruin her. 

I eventually got Virgil to try to be my friend and trust me. 

I walk out of homeroom and started walking to my first class when

"Could Patton Fluff please come to the office."

That's new, but I do so. walking in, My sister standing there, tear-stained face

"Oh No, Julia, what's wrong?' I walk over to her and squat down a bit; she isn't much shorter than me

"I-is the news a-about d-dad true???" Oh no, I hug her

"yes, Julia, Im sorry," she hugs me back, crying.

"And where is all your stuff, Patty?"

"I have a dorm here, but don't worry, ill visit home often."

"but...."

"here's what I need you to do, Keep being your happy little self, and be there for mom, Since I cant all the time. Can you do that for me?"

"y-yes" she nodded

"oh, and, if you want, you can stay in the office till the end of the day, and ill take you to come meet my roommates!" I tried to find a way to cheer her up. I know Roman's eccentric, Logan's smartness, and Virgil's kindness would cheer her up.

"Oh, YES!" she immediately got cheerier. 

I hope Logan has his emotions back...

I talk to the office, and they say its okay if she stays here

I wave to her and walk to my first class, The day goes by fast, We were just introducing ourselves, and I learned I have 1st 4th and 6th bell with Virgil, 2nd and 3rd with Roman, and 5th with Logan. I walk to the office and get my sister, she seems not too sad, but also not ecstatic. We walk to my dorm, the others already there, Virgil in his room, Roman in the kitchen, and Logan on the couch.

(since 5 people will be talking, I needed a way to show everyone's speech, so Patton is normal, Logan is bold, Roman is italic, Virgil is underline, and Pat's sister is all of them. This will stay the same in each POV, so it's not confusing. But I will have the Key in the beginning. ALSO if they are in "" that means it is not me talking, that's one of them. But if it's without the quotation marks its notes from me or a thought )

"everyone! gert your butts to the living room"

"already am here," Logan says blankly

 "ok?" Roman walks over and sits down

"UGH I DONT WANNA"

"COME ON VIRGIL"

"FFFIIINNEEEE" he comes out and sits down, My sister hiding behind me

"Ok guys, I would like to introduce you to my little sister Julia" I step out of the way and she waves a bit. She is just like Virgil, quite, but when she gets to know someone she is like Roman, loud and creative, at school, she is like logan, smart, and wherever else she is like me, A fluff ball.

Everyone waves back, Roman stood up and hugged her, talking to her about Disney, 

The other two stayed on the couch, quiet and shy. That was new for Logan. I urged them silently to come talk to her. Virgil eventually did. Roman, my sister and him 'arguing' over the best Disney movie. Virgil didn't smile much but he did a few times, and I could tell that Roman got excited to see him smile. I sat down next to Logan

"hey, are you ok?"

"hm? oh yes, i am Adiquate."

"Logan im worried, ever since they came you haven't been the same"

"no need to worry, Just shock" He smiled at me, I wanted to Believe it was genuine, but I just couldn't. 

"You just... seem lifeless"

"oh... I well...." he looked down, I put my hand on his, he didn't react. he just pulled his hand back. Why... why did that hurt so badly?

"Logan?"

He stood up and walked into his room, I looked at the others, They were still talking and joking. 

"I'll make some dinner!" I stand up and walk to the kitchen to make Julia's favorite dinner; Homemade Pizza. 

"OK, Patty!" Julia smiles wide

Virgil laughs a bit, "Patty? That's adorable"

"Omg, That's Adorable!!!" Roman smiled as well

I giggled a bit, "awe guys"

Julia giggled as well, then she looked around "Hey Patty?"

"yeah, Julia?"

"where is your Boyfriend?"

I almost dropped the flour I was holding, My face going red, "H-he isn't my BF!"

The other two were dying laughing

"OMG, I TOTALLY SHIP IT!!!" Virgil seemed comfortable, I hope that lasts. 

after eating and seeing nothing of Logan, I walked to his door and knocked on it, "Lo?"

My sister had gone home by now, My mom picking her up from the high school

"Come in" I do so, Logan sitting at his desk, doing work. 

"what are you doing?"

"homework"

"but you missed Dinner"

"ill get it later"

"lo please..."

"Thank you Patton" he spun around in his chair, facing at me, "but im ok right now"

"but... Lo..."

"Thank you"

"n-no problem" I stepped out, closing his door, I feel so... so low...

The last time I felt this was... last night... 

The feeling of pain

loss

hurt

did I just lose Logan?

I won't stand for this

I walk out, finding Roman and Virgil in the living room, Virgil on his Phone and Roman watching something on Disney channel

I sit down with them, They don't move

"Virge, Ro..." They both look up, My voice is saddened, so it grabs their attention. 

"yeah?"

"whats up Pat?

"I... Im worried for Lo.."

"don't worry pat, he is just in shock"

Virgil just seemed to get uncomfortable, He stood up and tried to leave. I let him go, and gave Ro the glare that said "let him"

"I know... I just..." I sighed

"don't worry bud" He stood up and sat next to me, pulling me into a hug.
