6 hours.
6 very long and painful hours.That's how long it took for everyone to come back to the mindscape. Remus was too far into his painful thoughts to notice at first. He was curled up on the couch with some random disney movie playing. His eyes were misted over and he wasn't able to focus on the show.
The couch shifted next to him and he jerked out of his head, immediately sitting up properly and getting off the couch so the others could use it. He waved a little to the logical side that was sitting next to where Remus previously was, then handed Logan the TV remote so the nerd could put on what he wanted.
"Aren't you watching this?" Logan asked with a raised eyebrow. Remus shook his head and pointed to Logan, trying to tell him he could choose.
Logan nodded slowly before putting on Big Hero 6 and motioned for Remus to sit next to him. Remus blink in confusion and stayed in his spot on the floor. He didn't really watch the movie, once again slipping into his thoughts because he had no way to get any of his thoughts out.
Or maybe he did..
Remus summoned the journal that Dr. Picani had given him a few months ago. It was a Thought Journal where he can write down his thoughts. He summoned a green pen and began to write down everything that came to mind. Most being gruesome.
He wrote and wrote and wrote until his hand ached and the journal was filled with things he couldn't handle. He didn't notice the movie changing or hear Patton calling for dinner. He didnt see the room turn dark or feel the material of a soft blanket draping over him.
He didn't even remember falling asleep.
Remus' eyes fluttered open and he managed to yawn without opening his mouth. He rubbed his eyes and that's when he noticed the soft material of a dark blue blanket on him. It had constellations and stars, so he immediately knew Logan had been the one to put it on him.
But why?
Why was he already being given kindness? Is it because he didn't talk yesterday and they were happy about it?
Whatever the reason was, he figured if he kept doing it then maybe, just maybe, he could finally be accepted as one of them.
Standing up, Remus folded the blanket up and wrote a thank you note before going to the nerd's room and knocking on the door in tune to Forbidden Fruit so Logan would know who it was. Logan opened the door with confusion, and looked even more confused when Remus handed him the blanket.
"Are you alright Remus?" Logan asked as he took the blanket and read the note. He, obviously, received to verbal answer. He looked up to see Remus nod once before heading back down the hallway.
Remus began to do the daily chores, having no idea what time it was but hoping it would distract him from his mind as he cleaned.
Looking at the clock, Remus saw that it 3:56 am.
Huh. That must be why Logan was confused.
Oh well, he'll sleep later. He must clean up for now and prove his worth.
