Human Au
TW: Almost death

Logan and Roman had been together since they first met in high school, since 16. They'd gone through marriage, sad times, romantic dates, hospital visits, cuddles for days and now they had a child. They were two 32 year olds and had a two month old little Virgil in their hands and god were they the happiest family in the universe. Now that they could share all of their moments with their gorgeous little bundle of sunshine, Logan had found life was absolutely perfect. Roman on the other hand was like the mother of the family, stressed. Logan worked from home as an epidemiologist, studying spread of diseases. He earned money day by day which meant their small family was good in money.

Roman worked out of town every two weeks, leaving Logan with Virgil. He didn't mean to but his boss insisted that if he didn't he would be
'immediately fired on the spot'
He worked in a small company for a Broadway, the main protagonist. He was great at acting and even Logan thought it was 'cute'

Right now, Logan was at home with Virgil. It was one of the days where Roman left for work for a business trip. It was only for a few days, 2-3 days. Five to the most.
It was a modern Wednesday, cup of tea, doctor who on the television and the windows open. And, Virgil crying. Logan shoots up quickly at the sound of his son crying, rushing passed the couch, the bedroom door frame and then his bed. He studies the cot where Virgil sleeps and immediately scoops up his bundle. "Virgie, daddy's here, it's okay little one." He gently touches Virgil's nose and rocks him back and fourth, gently brushing his lips against his forehead and then cradling him tighter. Virgil calms down at the sound of his dad's soft voice, smiling now.

Soft sniffles and tiny, baby tears fell down the two month old baby's cheeks, his farther wiping them away as he sat on the end of the bed. "Why so sad virgie? What upset you, my little star?" He asks, he knew Virgil wouldn't reply. Considering he was two months old, but it was still nice to just talk. He ponders about Virgil's future, if he would have roman's traits or Logan's or both of them combined.

Logan continues to do these actions and words making Virgil slowly fall asleep again, eyes closed calmly. The scientist grins and slowly places his son back into the baby purple coloured cot. He watched his son sleep before slowly picking him up again and bringing him to Roman and Logan' shared bed. He decides to cuddle his son now, snuggling the little child close and nuzzling him. He wasn't going to sleep though, in fear of hurting Virgil whilst he slept.

Suddenly, the bedroom doorframe was covered by a taller, green eyed, tanned man. Roman was home, he dropped his bags and suitcase and crawled over to his family. He gave Logan a sweet, loving kiss before snuggling Virgil.

"How was your trip, lovely?" Logan whispers to Roman, holding his hands as his thumb brushed over his knuckles. "Could be better, but I'm glad I'm home with my beautifuls." He says smiling, receiving another kiss from Logan.

Virgil: 5

Roman came home late again, 12am. Logan was waiting worriedly at the front door inside, he had chosen inside because it was freezing outside in the winter season in Florida. Roman came in distressed and looked at his husband, brokenly. He felt himself immediately being pulled into a tight hug by his logical husband, arms rubbing his back and waist affectionately. "Dear, what's the matter? You look as if you've gone through hell and back, love." Logan says softly, pulling back and rubbing away the now forming tears with his thumbs from Roman's green eyes. Roman looks at him before huffing softly, his head was tight and stressed and he just needed to cry.

"Bad day," He mumbles as an answer, snuggling into Logan's chest again. Soft kiss brush against his forehead and circles on his back are drawn and that's when Roman broke down into gentle sobs. Logan's frown increased as he watched the broken actor, it made his heartbreak.
They stayed like this until half an hour passed, they went to bed and cuddled after visiting Virgil and reading him a story for him to get back to sleep to.

Virgil: 5 and 2 months

They were all out shopping and Virgil was finally walking normally, he had developed a habit of not being able to walk. Logan and Roman, being the distressed parents they were, immediately took their son to a doctor to get it checked out. Turns out he just needed to learn properly. That was a fun day, teaching Virgil how to walks

Virgil slowly waddled his way over to the plush toy section, he looks up at his dad, Roman pointing to a specific spider plush that was too high to reach. Roman chuckles softly and reaches to grab it for his little son, handing it to him. He squats down next to Virgil, "you like that one buddy? We can get it if you want,"
Roman says, giggling when his son's reaction was priceless. Virgil's eyes widened and he snuggles the plush tightly, "Mr cuddles!" The little boy exclaims, a lisp in his voice.

Mr cuddles was now in Virgil's arms ever since that shop visit, during his sleep it would be there snuggled, on trips, grocery shopping, first day of school.
Roman and Logan found it adorable of course, lots of photos were taken.

————————————————————

Virgil: 12

His mind was fuzzed and ears were ringing, outside was storming tremendously and it was terrifying for the near-age teen. He clutched mr cuddles tightly and turned over to his phone on the bedside table, he had gotten it for his birthday. He looked at the time, 4am.

Huffing, he slowly sits up and groans softly. He rubs his eyes and looks around, his eyes adjusting to do the dark. With that said, Virgil slowly starting to make his way to his dad's bedroom.

He was almost at their door! Just a little more... uh oh, a massive lightening strike flashed the window right next to Virgil, a loud cackling thunder flowing soon after. The anxious flinched and fell to the ground, curling into himself as he let tears fall and hiccups to fall from his throat.

He was terrified.

He sobbed into his arms, sitting right outside of his dad's room. He tried to stay quiet but his cries were very loud and obviously scared sobs.

It didn't take long for one of his dads to find him, he heard the soft cries. The dad slowly sat next to Virgil and frowned, "Virgil? Think you could do our breathing technique my little star?" Ah, Logan it was. Without hesitation, Virgil showed Logan it was okay to touch him by hugging into him tightly.

With that reply Logan scooped his son up and took him into his room, sitting him next to the sleeping, peaceful Roman. "Virgil, my beautiful storm cloud. I need you to take a deep breath in, okay? In for five out for seven." He insisted, holding Virgil's hand. Virgil did this, doing it for a while before he fully calmed down.

Logan smiles and pulls him gently into the covers, Roman waking up and cuddling Virgil close. Virgil was stuck in between his two dads, sandwiched, they each pressed a kiss to Virgil's head.

Then they fell asleep once again.

———————————————————-

Virgil: 16
It was all gone. All of it. Logan's family was shattered, every photo didn't make sense. Nothing made sense. Roman got hit by a car. It was all so sudden, Logan couldn't comprehend the news. It had been 12 years and Virgil was now 16 years old, he grew up with anxiety but his farther supported him of course. They helped him with everything and he started to gain an interest in music. The two parents were so proud of their son, they had told him he was adopted and Virgil explained he already knew which made them all share a laugh and smile.

Then it faded, a black, sticker covered, drunk driver van hit Roman whilst over the speed limit. He was on another business trip and Logan didn't receive the news until late since Roman was out of their town. The actor was still in a coma and police were investigating who had hit poor Roman. Virgil couldn't stop crying, he was so sensitive and had a panic attack at the thought of his own dad dying right before he even got to adulthood.

Logan was even worse, he would spend days in his room without coming out. He would zone out, ponder, stress, overthink, cry, fight with memory loss. Everything was just breaking away like ash.

His Roman was hurt and there would be outcomes, maybe his husband would share the story if he survived. But what if he didn't?

// hiya!! So this was actually really sad lol- do you guys want a part two?
