Love and Loss

Chapter 19

It was Roman's turn to groan, "Why are you here you... you... you scheming sneaky snake!" "That isn't the best you got Prince?" Janus countered. "Well I've been stressed!!!" Roman exclaimed. "My point exactly," Janus said, jumping on the opportunity Roman had unknowingly provided him. "Is there a side, or person, in this room that hasn't been stressed lately?" "..." "I didn't think as much, you've been going through some major changes Thomas," Janus said, gesturing at Logos. "You deserve a break with everything that's been going on" "Well I don't know if that much has actually chang-" "A side literally grew wings Thomas" "...touché" "But what if he gets even further behind on his work!" Virgil worriedly replied, glaring at Janus. "Then he gets behind" Janus shrugged while Logos disapprovingly looked at him. "Thomas' fans aren't understanding at all, heck they're usual so very mean to him on Twitter". Virgil still looked nervous about the whole ordeal so Janus quickly said, "Virgil, despite your feelings about me it is a known fact that Thomas' fans have been understanding in the past, as such it is likely that they will understand now, isn't that right Logos?" Logos begrudgingly agreed. "Janus is correct, however we have already delayed producing content, which I understand may be my fault, as such, it would be to our detriment to delay the uploading and manufacturing content that was promised weeks ago". "But wouldn't Thomas' work performance lessen if he knew that he could of been somewhere better at the time?" "That could be true, yes" Logos said reluctantly. "And isn't mental health important Logos?" "...yes" Logos said. "And don't you definitely owe me because it was Roman, not Virgil, that guessed your identity?" Janus cheerily asked. "Ah there it is" Janus smiled. "I mean I could take my payment in other ways~" Janus said, grinning from ear to ear. Blushing profusely, Logos quickly responded, "Okay fine he can go" Laughing, Janus clapped before saying, "Well it's decided! In that case I don't have other matters to attend to," Janus said "but just remember, I won't be back" With that, Janus sunk out, it looked like Logos was about to say something but with an "Eeep" the others saw Janus grab his hand and they sunk out together. "Well," Thomas chuckled. "that sure was an eventful meeting" Virgil scoffed, "tell me about it, the next time we get a big surprise like that I think I'm going to just duck out again" "Noooo Virgil, don't leave us" Patton said with puppy eyes, smiling Virgil responded in jest, "ugh fine, I guess for you I won't". "Like can you even image if there was acatually another side?" Thomas joked. The other three remaining sides nervously looked at each other "...right Thomas... imagine that..." Roman said.

When Logos sunk down he realized that Janus' hand was still attached to his. Despite his best efforts, Logos found that his capillaries were still expanded in his face, therefore increasing the about if heat being released causing his face  to feel like it was on fire and to look beet red. Chuckling, Janus said, "careful Logos, your emotions are showing~" The two of them stepped closer towards each other. "I like you Janus" "I know" There was a pregnant pause before Janus asked, "Can I kiss you?" "Please" With that, Janus surged forward kissing Logos on the lips. The kiss was soft and sweet and, in Logos' opinion at least, didn't last long enough. The human side of Janus' face was scarlet and Logos laughed before teasing, "Careful Janus, your emotions are showing~" "Oh shush" Janus said. The two of them laughed and Logos realized that everything would be okay. He would be okay. And sometimes, he realized, it takes a little bit of loss to gain the love for life.
