~Third Person POV~
Deceit went to Logan's room after his chat with Patton. "Logan." he says after a long sigh. Logan looks up at him, nodding his head in a polite greeting.
"Deceit. What brings you here?" Logan asks. "........ Dammit I hate telling the truth for this long." Deceit says with a grimace. "But I suppose this is important for you to know.... It's about Patton."
Logan immediately gave any divided attention to him. "I'm listening." Deceit sighs. "He's hurting himself, Logan. And I'm sure Remus is to blame," he says with a disapproving head tilt.
"But do not tell him I told you." he finishes. Logan got teary-eyed as Deceit left with an almost sympathetic look.
After De left, Logan tried to keep his tears inside. Not so easy. He walked out of the room on intent of finding Patton, but bumps into Virgil instead.
"Jesus C- .... L-logan?!" Virgil says, immediately filled with worry upon seeing Logan's expression.
"Oh my god what's wrong; what happened?" At those words, Logan broke. Started crying. For the first time ever, Logan was crying.
That's how Virgil knew it was bad. He hugs Logan tightly, and all the other could really do is hug back and sob helplessly into Virgil's shoulder.
"Oh, Logan... Logan talk to me buddy..." Virgil says softly, rubbing his back in attempt to comfort him.
"It's..... I-it's P-patton, he..." Logan tries to say, but he didn't realize how hard it actually was to talk in the middle of a breakdown.
Virgil sighs inaudibly. "I know." he says quietly, swallowing his feelings for now. "Wh-why do I... Why... Is... Am I so..." Logan tries to say. Luckily, Virgil understands. "Because you're in love with him, Logan. You care about him, and when he hurts, you hurt." he replies softly.
~Virgil's POV~
Seeing Logan like this is rough... I care so much about him; he's like a parent to me..
He confirmed what I was fearing, though... Patton started hurting himself, somehow.. I swear to god, I'm going to kill Remus...
"What do I do..." Logan all but whimpers sadly. I frown a little and sigh quietly. "I don't know.. I don't know I'm sorry..." I tell him. He looks at me, eyes still glossy and red.
"Do you...?" Logan asks, and I know what he means. "Self harm? Yeah... Yeah, I do but... That's for another time, okay? Besides, Ro already talks to me about it... Maybe go talk to Patton.."
Logan nods a little, standing upright and wiping his eyes. "I-i'll go talk to him.." he says before walking away.
~Logan's POV~
I feel so... Drained.. And heavy. Is this what Patton was feeling, at least to a degree? I hate emotions...
I walk to the kitchen, seeing Patton against the wall and noticing the oven on. I turn it off before kneeling down to Patton's level.
"Patton..? I do apologize for earlier.. M-my head was just-.." my sentence was cut off by more tears threatening to fall. Apparently, Patton gave a damn enough to notice.
He sat up, looking genuinely worried. "L-logan what's..-?" I bite my lip a little and sigh, covering my eyes momentarily. "Ghh, this isn't about me, okay..?!" I say, taking a shaky breath before looking at him.
"Patton, please, please talk to me... I... I'm begging you.." I say, making him look at me with an expression I couldn't read.
"Why do you care..?" he says with a small voice crack. "I..." is it too soon to say it? I didn't even realize I loved him until..
But he's looking at me so expectantly...
"Is it just because you want me back to normal, just so I can be a nuisance again? Annoy you again? Why should you want that? You hate me.." he says, and I don't mean it figuratively when I say that hurt.
"I don't hate you, Patton! I l... I... I love you okay?! I love you with every single part of me and I can't bear the thought of being without you so please talk to me!! I'm here for you, I've been trying to be here for you since you started feeling this way!"
~Patton's POV~
Logan.... Logan started crying... Does he mean it..? I don't know how he'd be able to act something like that...
I felt myself start to tear up. I felt so bad about everything I've been doing up till now.. I all but jumped on him in a tight hug.
"Logan, I-i'm so sorry! I'm sorry I didn't talk b-but I... I thought if I just ignored it... B-but then it got worse and Remus got to my head a-and I picked up something sharp... But i-it didn't bleed s-so I thought it w-was no big deal b-because-!"
"Oh, Patton.... Patton it's okay, it'll be okay... It is a big deal though, you still hurt yourself, but it's okay now, I'm here..." Logan says.
"Gosh I love you too.... I love you so much Logan... I thought you'd never feel the same... I-i'm sorry for saying what I did, I'm sorry I did so much to hide from you... I j-just didn't want you to worry, I wanted you to be happy!" I tell him.
Logan holds me by the shoulders and looks me in the eyes. "Patton, you make me happy. I love you for who you are, not who anyone thinks you should be.. I'll be here for you, no matter how you feel. I don't care if you yell at me, or if you're crying.. I'll still love you." he says.
And before I even have a chance to respond, he kissed me.
