Deceits PoV
I was sitting in Virgil's room, rubbing his back as he's sick again. It had been about a month since Thomas started taking those pills."How much have eaten today?" I ask him, noticing his boney body and only stomach acid puke. He chuckled nervously, "two days." He says quietly, I give him a questioning look, "whenever I eat or even try to eat I feel the urge to be sick." He says like it's the most obvious thing ever. "I'll get you some soup, that'll probably stay down long enough for it to digest." I say getting up and helping Virgil back to his bed.

I head downstairs, to the kitchen and get a can of soup. "What are you doing?" I hear a voice ask from behind me, I twirl around to be met by the end of a katana. I slowly push it down, "woah there princey, I was just getting your ex some soup." I say finishing the soup and turning to leave before that same voice stops me, "can't he get it himself?" He asks, "no he can't, he's a bit let's say under the weather." I say leaving no room for argument and going back to Virgil.

When I walk in I see him heaving over the side of his bed, I place the bowl onto the night stand rushing over to Virgil. "Woah, woah, you're alright. Just a bit sick, it's alright." When he looks up I could feel my heart drop, he had his hand up showing black goop was covering it and instead of tears he was crying the same black goop. "What is it?" I ask knowing what it was but not wanting to believe it, "it's what I had just spewed up." He says plainly.

I pull him into a hug, letting him cry into my shoulder. "At least I'm feeling well enough now, to leave my room." He says chuckling, "yeah, let's go get something propped to eat. If you're up to it." I say, he nods, "I'll feel alright enough to eat." He says wiping away the extra goop from his face.We turn and leave his room.

the others have gotten quite used to me walking around and really shocked anymore except for Roman.

When we get down the stairs we see Patton in the kitchen, "hiya kiddos, dinner is almost done. I hope you have an appetite you two." I look at Virgil who chuckles, "today's the only day I've been able to eat without being sick again ten minutes later. I have a big appetite is what I'm saying." I chuckle along with Virgil, Patton just looked confused.

"Virgil, you're looking a little more pale than usual today, are you sure you're feeling better?" Patton asks, Virgil just nods "I'm fine." I look at him nervously "you sure?" I ask making sure, "I'm fine. I thought I was anxiety, jeez." He laughs.

Virgil's PoV
Me and Deceit are on the sofa waiting for dinner to be done, when I feel an overwhelming agonising pain in my gut. I fold over coughing slightly, alerting Deceit. He grabs me and rushes me to the downstairs bathroom, where I immediately start to choke on the black goop that burnt my throat. I feel Deceit pat my back, "shit." I say under my breath.

I stand up shakily, using Deceit as a support, "Are you sure you'll be able to have dinner with He others?" He asks, "I'll be fine." I reassure him, smiling. At that moment Patton called us for dinner.

When we get there, there was five plates "Why is there five plates?" Deceit asks just before leaving "it's for you Deceit, you've been taking such good care of Virgil, it's the least I can do." Patton says.

Deceit sits beside me, "the next few weeks I won't be able to check on you, will you be alright?" He whispers, "I think the worst of it is over so I think I will be." I whisper back, he nods and proceeds to eat, avoiding all of the conversations with the others and only said a snarky comment or two, when the others were getting on his nerves, to me.
