Deceit's PoV
An hour after breakfast, Logan phoned me. Where did he get my number from? I answer it, "Hello Deceit." I smile, "hi, how's Roman?" I ask, Logan sighed "he's getting better. He still flinches if you make a sudden movement but he's letting us in the same room as him." Logan says, I could hear the, adjusting his glasses, in his voice. "That's good." I say quietly, "how's Virgil." He asked I couldn't help but smile. "He's alright. We're going to see Thomas tomorrow, you can join if you want." I say, Logan stopped to think "alright." I smile. "I've got to go, speak to you later." I say, seeing Remus wanting to talk to me, "okay, see you tomorrow." He said hanging up.

I turn my attention to Remus, "yes?" I ask "who were you talking to?" He asked, "Logan. Who else would I invite?" I chuckle. Remus nodded, "is that all you wanted?" I asked him, "no.... Virgil is curled up and shaking in his room." I was feeling a mix between, worried and angry. Remus seemed to notice too, "I had one of my 'uncontrollable outbursts' and slammed his door open and started shouting random gibberish, that only I understood, and he panicked and now well in a spider death curl thing." He said putting his hands up defensively, than paused to think, "or fear. I can never remember." I sigh pinching the bridge of my nose, "I have told you on more than one occasion that when you feel one of you outbursts coming on, come to me." I say turning to the stairs, Remus looked guilty and sat down.

Once I reached Virgil's door, I knocked quietly. "Hey, Virgil. Can I come in?" I ask, just above a whisper. "D-Dee?" He asked shakily, "yeah, it's me. Can I come in?" I ask, "y-yeah." He said quietly. I open the door, and look around the dark room. I see Virgil huddled in a corner, peaking out of his legs slightly to look at me. I sit beside him, "hey bud, did Remus scare you? He can be a bi-" Virgil cut me off, uncurling "can you feel that brease? It's been here since Remus first burst into my room." He said, I shake my head "I can't feel it." I say, as I finish Virgil shivered, "let's go see if we can find where it's coming from." I say helping him up.

I follow Virgil, who looked like he was following a trail. Eventually leading to the downstairs, "it's coming from down here." He says walking down them, we stop in the living room where Remus was sitting, smiling. "It's coming from in here." He says shivering again, he then walked up to Remus. Who looked uncomfortable when he done that, "it just got stronger. It's coming from him." Virgil says pointing at Remus, who looked anxious. My eyes widen in realisation, "are you alright Remus?" I ask, he just nodded. "I'm fine." Virgil shivered again, "how about you go and spend some time with Logan. You look like you need it." I smile warmly, Remus nodded before sinking out. "The brease is gone." Virgil said sitting where Remus once sat.

I couldn't help but smile.
