To Become Light

Chapter 3

Logan spent most of his time on the floor, sleepy and weak. His legs wobbled when he stood, taking a hit on his energy. His back and head hurt. Patton commented in worry about bruises on the back of his head, some sort of concussion probably. They talked in hush voices around him, not sure what to do with him. He wasn't ever sure when one day ended and another started, spending most of his time sleeping or dazed.

One time when he woke up, he found books left next to him. Books of various difficulties, however he didn't find any of them difficult to read. Reading itself was the issue, spending more then an hour reading caused his head to swim with a headache.

Another time, he found a new pair of glasses. Patton softly told him that they found new ones like his old pair, however grew uncomfortable when Logan asked what he ment by old pair. He gently hushed Logan and shuffled the pillows in him makeshift bed, built more like a nest. He didn't answer Logan questions and told him to sleep.

Sometimes Logan would find he had company in his bed. The nest was far too big for him, however very comfortable. Enough so to draw in Roman or Patton to sleep near him. That, or they simply fell asleep keeping watch on him. The first... little while, Logan wasn't sure how long, they watched him keenly. Nervous as if he would do something. Logan didn't know what. They slowly relaxed on that activity however.

Logan awoke to Roman gently shaking him. He yawned, rubbing his eyes and peering up at Roman in confusion.

"We are gonna watch a Disney movie, want to join us?" Roman whispered. Logan merely gave him a confused look while sitting up. Roman laughed, carefully grabbing Logan's arm to help him stand. "Come on, I think you'll like it."

Roman led Logan to the couch and sat down next to him. Pattons eyes would flick between the movie and Logan.

"I don't get it." Logan mumbled as the story played out

"What dont you get?" Roman hummed, certainly not expecting what Logan would say next.

"There is quite a number of flaws in the movies plot-"

The pair bickered for a solid hour before Logan wore out, still not having full energy to do much of anything. He tried to ask why this was, but they would either shrug or shake him off. Patton had disappeared at some point during the argument. Roman scooped Logan up and carried him off, passing the nest Logan usually resided and into a room. Patton seemed rather pleased with himself as he helped Logan into bed.

"This is your room now, I'm sorry it took so long..."
