Roman sat looking out his window contemplating life all dramatic like. He was trying to figure out what he was doing with his life. Sure he was happy to have Virgil as his fiance, but it felt wrong. Like something wasn't right.

Roman thought back to when he'd taken a nap with Virgil. He'd woken up after quite an unsettling dream. Everything was blurry when he thought back on the dream. The last thing he remembered was Remus saying he was going to save Roman. But save him from what? He was safe, right?

Roman's thoughts were interrupted as he heard the door open and close again. Virgil walked up to Roman and wrapped his arms around him. Virgil kissed Roman on the cheek. "Do you need something storm cloud?"

"Can't I just appreciate you?" Virgil removed his arms from Roman's neck. Roman stood up and turned around looking into Virgil's eyes. The two leaned in and kissed.

Their kiss was interrupted by someone coughing to get their attention. Virgil turned to look at Damion annoyed. "Sorry for interrupting, but I thought you two would want to announce your marriage to the kingdom."

"Kingdom?" Virgil asked.

"Well it's more like a collection of villages, but it would be nice to announce to our people," Roman put his arm around Virgil and smiled.

Everyone sat around in the living room eating the chicken Patton had managed to make. Remus and Logan had come downstairs a bit later than everyone else, but Patton wasn't worried.

Patton grabbed his plate and walked over to sit next to Janus. He hadn't touched his food, "Why haven't you eaten anything yet?"

Janus seemed uncomfortable, but still wanted to answer Patton, "I don't want to scare anyone."

"Well, I don't think you could really scare anyone here!"

Janus moved slightly away from Patton, "Well I don't want to scare... you."

Patton looked concerned, "Well I don't want to stop you from eating!"

Janus looked away, he knew he had to eat but he didn't want to scare Patton. Janus took a deep breath and picked up a chicken leg. He unhinged his jaw and ate the leg whole.

Patton stared in shock, this was not something he'd expected. Janus noticed, "I'm sorry, I'll just go eat in my room." Janus stood up and began to walk away.

Patton grabbed his arms, "You don't have to leave because of me, I'm sorry for staring." Janus turned around and smiled, he moved and sat next to Patton and continued to eat.

Virgil walked around the castle looking around. He was annoyed that Damion had stolen away Roman again. He never got any time to even talk with his fiance alone.

Virgil felt a shiver as a gust of wind blew past. Virgil turned suddenly expecting Damion to be standing behind him like the creep he was. But surprisingly no one was there.

Virgil turned back and continued walking. He hugged in on himself freaked out. Another gust of wind came from nowhere. Virgil turned around again and still no one, "Who's there, show yourself!"

"I would if there was something to show, but considering I'm invisible to you it's pretty much impossible," a random voice said. Virgil jumped and tried to find the source.

"Can you stop looking for something, your not gonna find anything."

"Well, then could you tell me who you are?"

"I don't really want to, all you really need to know is I'm here to help you!" The voice sounded excited and Virgil felt another gust of wind swirl around his head.

"Nice try but I'm not an idiot like Roman."

"That's pretty harsh, but I'm not trying to trick you."

"So you not with Damion?"

"Why would I help that bastard, he's the reason I'm dead."

"Wait your dead?"

"Yeah, I'm like a ghost!"

"Well does this ghost have a name?"

"I forgot my old name, but I've always liked the name, Tim!"

"Well, that's a really bad name."

"You're one to talk." Virgil glared at the air in front of him.

"Do you want me to trust you or not?"

"Sorry, I'm just here to help."

"So Damion really is evil?"

"And you didn't already know this?"

"Fair point, but how do you plan on helping?"

"Well there isn't much we can do now, but I'll get to you when I have a plan. Just don't let Damion know I'm here, just lay low."

"So basically just continue what I'm already doing?" Virgil said crossing his arms.

"Yup!" Virgil felt Tim's presence leave him and he was all alone in this hallway. Virgil sighed and began to continue walking when he heard someone yelling his name.

"Virgil! Wait!" Virgil turned and saw Roman running towards him. He seemed to be struggling not to trip over his cape.

"Is there something wrong?"

Roman stopped running and smiled at Virgil, "Nothing's wrong storm cloud, I just had to ask you something before I have to go back to work."

"What is it?"

"Well we haven't actually had a real date, so I was wondering if you would want to go on a date with me?" Roman asked before kissing Virgil on the forehead.

"Of course!" Virgil leaned up and kissed Roman.

You know Tim was totally unplanned, they just sort of happened. And now their entire character is planned out, and they've got a backstory.
