    Let's G O!!!!

Roman's POV

  I awoke with a jolt.

  Thomas is having a nightmare. I got out of my bed and looked out my window. The Thunderstorm was coming to a climax. But as suddenly as I had awoken, the storm disappeared in a snap of a finger. The sky began to glow slightly, but not enough to see anything within a certain range of the house.

  I walked to my door and poked my head out into the hallway. My eyes adjusted to the darkness of the hallway to see a scared Patton sticking his head out of Logan's room, with a disgruntled Logan standing directly behind him. I looked down to Virgil's door and saw him standing out in the hall, slightly shaking. I opened my door a bit more and came out into the hallway. Virgil sighed and walked towards the stairs.

  "Is the brave Prince going to check it out? Or should I?." Virgil scoffed. I smirked and took a step towards the stairs.

  "I think we should all go and check on Thomas. He woke up after the storm awoke me. ONWARD!" I sank down into the real world and ran to Thomas's room. I knocked on the door and waited. The door opened to a very upset looking Thomas. He threw himself at me and gave me a hug.

  "Woah there Thomas. Are you alright? There was a Thunderstorm in your head my good man." I wrapped my arms around him. "Are you alright, Thomas?" He just tightened his grip on me.

  "I had a nightmare." He said bluntly. He leaned into my hug. I just laughed. I heard Patton, Virgil, and Logan walk up behind me and Thomas. Thomas let go of me and turned to sit on his bed. He looked up at us and began to cry. Patton just smiled and walked over to Thomas.

  "It's ok kiddo. You'll be alright." He said in his dad voice. Thomas only shrugged. "Well? You wanna talk about it?" Patton said rubbing circles on Thomas's back now.

  "W-well. I don't really remember what happened. But it was that dream I have a lot. With Joan and Talyn." He sighed. "Something bad happened but I can't remember what. I only remember that I was hurt." Thomas sat there thinking, presumably trying to remember the dream. But suddenly he jumped.

  "There was someone else there. But I've never seen him before. He was...well. He gave me the same energy that you guys give me. I know he's in my head. I don't remember what he looked like. I only remember the color orange." And with that Thomas slumped back onto the bed.

  I gave Logan, Virgil, and Patton concerned looks. I don't know any sides that have an orange theme. Maybe he was having a dream about Deciet? I would have pondered it much longer if Patton hadn't jumped up with a look of excitement.

  "I'll bake some cookies! Cookies always make Thomas feel better. Right Thomas? Or is that not a thing anymore?" Thomas looked at Patton as if he was about to agree but was cut off my Logan.

  "I don't think it wise to make cookies and disrupt both Thomas's eating schedule as well as his sleep schedule." Logan said with a tired sigh. "Not to mention our own sleep cycles." Patton  only looked down. But Logan was quick to comfort him. They had been awfully nice to each other lately....for definitely no suspicious reasons at all.

  "Bedtime? Again?" Virgil asked from the corner. He looked exhausted. Yet, I still continued to stare at his soft, delicate hair. The way it was swaying due to Thomas's ceiling fan being on. The way his eyes sparkled (even in the dark).

  I shook myself. No. No! No! No! I am not supposed to think of Virgil this way. He is definitely gorgeous, but that is no excuse to go flaunting after him like Prince Charming did to Cinderella.

  Besides the completely valid point that he would never share these feelings with me. Sadly, life isn't the fairy tale dream land I thought it was after......well, Virgil first appeared here. He was the first Dark Side to join us since  the Split between Remus and I. But that was a long time before Virgil showed up.

  Suddenly, I jumped out of my thoughts as Virgil tapped me on the shoulder. He gave me a fake smile but it soon drooped into a smirk.

  "Princey? Watcha starin'' at, Prettyboy?" He raised an eyebrow and I stifled a blush. Logan and Patton had already gone, but Thomas was still sitting there, watching the two of us. I looked at Thomas and smiled.

  "Goodnight Thomas. I hope you find sleep more appeasing than before." I winked at Thomas and queen-waved at Virgil before sinking down into the Mindscape. I was greeted by a sight that I had mixed feelings about. I was completely shocked, but also utterly excited to see Patton kissing Logan in Logan's doorway.

  Logan and Patton saw me and broke away from each other immediately. I just squealed and began clapping my hands as I jumped up and down. Patton and Logan blushed as they backed into Logan's room and closed the door. I shrugged, not at all surprised, and turned to see Virgil walking up the stairs. He looked me up and down and smirked.

  "So. That was weird. You know? Like, Patton calls me his son all the time. So, does that mean Logan is my other dad now?" He stood there with his arms crossed. I stifled a laugh.

  "Yes? No? Honestly, I'm not sure. But that's weird. I mean, how do you think they'd feel if..you know?" I put my hands behind my back and began rocking on my feet. "If they walked in on us kissing and thrashing each other about." I blushed, Virgil following shortly after. He finally uncrossed his arms and began messing with his hoodie strings. One was lower than the other, which normally bothered me so I ran over and adjusted it so they were both the same length.

  Virgil looked at me, as we were very close now, and back at his hoodie strings, then back at me. His eyes were sparkling more now that I was closer to him. He raised an eyebrow.

  "Where's the fire, tiger?" I blurted in a semi-romantic slash semi-loud tone. Virgil only blushed a darker color of red. I jumped back, as if it would take the awkwardness away. I was very wrong. Virgil stood there for a bit longer before sitting on the floor. I looked at him confused before he motioned me to sit in front of him. I obliged and sat down before him.

  He stared at me for a long and hard second before flicking my nose. I looked at him in shock and placing my hand on my chest. He only giggled. I reached down and tugged off his shoe before throwing it towards the stairs. He looked at me with a playful offended look.

  "Already trying to get me out of my clothes now, are you Princey?" He smirked at me to go and pick up his shoe, put it back on, and booped my nose and ran back over to the stairs. I stood up and ran towards him and poked his cheek. But he was surprised by my quick movements that he began to fall backwards, only before I could catch him and pull him back towards a balanced standing position. He looked at me in shock.

  I only smirked. He poked my chest. "The fires here, tiger." He smirked and kissed me on the cheek before running very quickly back to his room. I blushed as he slammed the door. I began to walk very slowly to my door and into my room. I closed the door behind me and climbed into bed. Virgil just kissed me! On the cheek, but still a kiss nonetheless! I smiled goofily as I turned on my side to think about it.

  It was soon overtaken by slumber and love and laziness before I finally drifted off into a deep and happy state of sleep.
