Patton stared into the wall all alone. A cold bowl of chili sat in front of him, he wasn't hungry after what had happened. Patton knew that there needed to be a change in the way he looked at things, no more black and white morals, but it was honestly hard. Patton tried to be understanding of Logan and Remus' relationship, but that just left Roman and Virgil unhappy. Patton just wished he could make everyone happy.

Instead, he was sitting alone. Logan and Remus were *ahem* finishing what they'd started earlier, and Virgil and Roman where in Roman's room doing god knows what. Patton was left to feel unhappy and confused. How was change supposed to happen if it made people unhappy?

Patton thought about this for a while before he had an idea. "Just visit Janus! He's the one who recommended the change, he should know how to make this right!" Patton thought. Patton stood up and threw out his chili and threw his dish in the sink, he would wash it later. Now he had more important things to do. Patton looked back at the common room before heading out into the maze of the mind to find the dark sides.
•<================================>•
Roman and Virgil arrived in Roman's room. Steam practically poured out of Roman's ears. He was furious. How could Logan do such a traitorous thing! Logan was just as bad as Patton! Virgil noticed the prince's rage and tried to calm him down, "Alright Princey time to calm down."

Roman looked at Virgil and saw he seemed shaken by Roman's rage. Roman was feeling every negative emotion at once. It was too much to handle, and he broke down. Roman let his blinding rage go leaving him sad, he looked directly at Virgil and began crying for the third time that day.

Virgil was surprised seeing the strong pince break down in front of him again. Virgil moved and pulled Roman into a hug, he wasn't really sure what else to do. Virgil rubbed circles on Roman's back and whispered words of encouragement. Roman just sobbed into Virgil's shoulder. Even after Roman had calmed down they stayed like that, comforted by the other's grip.

Roman smiled for the first time all day, even if his perfect life was crumbling he still had Virgil, "I'm sorry for calling you a dark side earlier."

"It's alright Princey," Roman hugged Virgil tighter taking in his scent. Virgil smelled like rain and chocolate. Roman was surprised he'd never noticed. The smell seemed to embrace Roman, it was calming. Virgil did the same smelling Roman, he smelled of caramel and a faint smell of rose.

Can you tell I like caramel?

Virgil pulled away from Roman to stare into his eyes. Roman was few inches taller and as his soft green eyes looked down on Virgil he felt calm. Roman smiled looking at Virgil, his eyes were slightly covered by his hair. Roman's hand moved before he realized what he was doing. Roman moved Virgil's bangs to the side and caressed Virgil's cheek with his hand.

Roman stared down at Virgil smiling, looking straight into his eyes. They were a dark chocolate brown with slight purple highlights around the edge. Roman had never realized how beautifully Virgil's make-up framed his eyes. It was absolutely stunning. Virgil smiled looking up at Roman. Before Virgil could stop his body he leaned up and gave Roman a soft and short kiss.

Virgil immediately regretted this seeing Roman's face turn red, "Oh I'm so sorry! I shouldn't have done that! Just forget any of this happened!" Virgil pulled away and turned his head. Roman frowned, he had loved the kiss. Virgil's lips were extremely soft and Roman want them back.

Roman grabbed Virgil's shoulders and brought him closer. Virgil was still looking away avoiding looking at Roman. Roman put his hand on Virgil's cheek and turned his head to look directly at him. "Virgil, don't ever think that I don't want you," Roman then leaned down and kissed Virgil again, this time more passionate. This kiss lasted much longer, only stopping when they needed air.

Roman eventually pulled away for the last time a stared at Virgil again. "Virgil, do you want everything to stay like this forever?"

"Of course Roman!"

"Well I have a plan, you just need to trust me," Roman moved Virgil to sit on the bed.

That statement was a bit alarming, but Virgil was too love-struck, "of course I trust you." Then Roman took two steps back and summoned Damion.

Damion appeared facing Roman, "Ah Roman. Have you finally come to your senses? Are you willing to make the deal?" Virgil didn't recognize whoever this was, but he had a weird feeling of deja vu about this guy. His entire aura made Virgil more anxious.

Roman sighed, "Yes I'm willing to do whatever you want. On one condition. Virgil and I always stay together and get to be happy. Your plan can not involve Virgil getting hurt, or I will personally make your insides, outsides!" Damion's smile never fell, he just turned around to see Virgil glaring at him. The look this man gave Virgil made him shiver. It was like the man wasn't looking at Virgil as it he was human, but as if he was an expensive piece of furniture.

"Why of course Roman, to finalize this agreement just shake my hand," Damion reached out his hand for Roman to shake.

"Wait Ro-" Virgil tried to stop Roman before he shook, but it was too late. Roman reached out and grabbed Damion's hand. It was really hot as a bonfire. Roman tried to pull back, but Damion's grip was too strong. Roman screamed as his hand burned. The heat then traveled all around his body leaving painful burns from the invisible fire.

Roman fell to his knees crying out in pain, Damion soon retracted his hand. Virgil ran over to his struggling lover and hugged him from behind before glaring at Damion. Damion was still smiling staring at Roman its pain. "WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM DICK WAD?!" Virgil screamed.

Roman clutched his burnt had as tears of pain. "There is no need to raise your voice, Virgil. Roman should be completely fine."

"What do you mean should!"

"Well it's been a while since I've made a deal, and I didn't expect his pain tolerance to be so... Low. But he shouldn't die, you can't die here," before Virgil could ask any more questions Damion sunk out disappearing. Virgil just cried as he held Roman who had stopped screaming and fallen unconscious from the pain.

I didn't mean to write it like this, but Damion gives me major Alastor vibes. Maybe it's the smile, I dunno.
