The sides were all relaxing downstairs. Lounging around doing a variety of things from talking, to snacking on cookies, to watching a movie on the TV. "Hey, Lo. How's it going!" Roman said as he walked over to the logical side. Logan had been sitting on the couch reading a book for a while now while everyone was talking and Roman finally had a free moment to go ask him a question. 

The logical side looked up from his book, The Murder of Roger Ackroyd in case you were wondering, and gave a small smile. "Salutations, Roman. What may I help you with today?" Logan inquired. He quickly summoned a bookmark and put it in his page before setting the book aside and turning his full attention to the creative side. 

"So, uh, beautiful." It slipped out of his mouth. Roman was the side that dealt with Romance, and, well that sort of stuff, so there was a lot more of some stuff than you would think. Occasionally, on complete accident, he would flirt with one of the sides. Sometimes it was something big, while other times it could be as simple as calling someone a pet name or something along those lines. All the sides knew he didn't really mean it since his boyfriend was Virgil and they generally just ignored it. Roman always apologized about it though after he realized what he said. He hated that aspect of himself. "Crap, sorry. I was wondering if you could help me finalize a schedule for next week for Thomas since he'll be so busy." 

Logan nodded and snapped to put his book away, most likely back upstairs on his desk. Then, the two of them went to work on a schedule for Thomas. They both wanted him to work to the best of his abilities.

Virgil walked up to Roman's door and knocked in the pattern he must have done at least one hundred times. He needed to have a chat with Roman about something that had happened earlier today. After a few seconds he let himself in to see Roman lying on his bed just scrolling through something on his phone. Roman turned to see Virgil and gave him a smile as the anxious side walked over and sat next to him. "Hey, Ro."

Once Virgil sat down Roman gently tugged him down so they were lying next to each other on Roman's king-sized bed. "Hi, Honey. How are you today?" Roman absentmindedly started running his fingers through Virgil's hair which calmed the later side. 

"Oh, I'm okay. That's actually what I came here to talk about," Virgil began, pausing until he heard Roman give a sign of affirmation that he had heard him. "Well, I heard that earlier you were flirting with Logan while trying to make the schedule with him. You still love me, right Ro?" Virgil's voice held an air of nervousness. 

Roman turned so that he was staring Virgil right in the eyes. "Virgil, you know I can't control that and I am so so so sorry, but I swear on all Disney that I love you with all my heart." He gently placed a kiss to his boyfriend's forehead and smiled. 

"Okay, thank you, Roman. I love you too. Now, can you come with me? I want to show you something I made the other day." Virgil said, before sliding out of Roman's grasp and standing up again. Roman agreed to come and stood up snapping out of the more comfortable clothes he was in and into his princely outfit. Together they walked down the hallways, past all of the doors to the other rooms until they were at a nice solid door that Virgil stood in front of. "In here." he opened the door and Roman walked inside. 

Inside the room seemed to be made of solid metal on all sides with a nice, cushioned chair in the middle. Virgil shut the door behind them and locked it so Roman would be unable to leave if he tried. The anxious side shoved Roman into the chair and wrist and ankle cuffs held him in place on the chair. He panicked a little and tried to jump off and out of the chair, but he was unable to move. "Now, now. You need to calm down Princey. I am simply teaching you a lesson. You are mine and not anyone else and you can't be to close with the others." 

Roman panicked trying to think of how to reason with his psychopath boyfriend. "Virgil, you know I can't help it and that I don't mean anything I say when it happens." Virgil didn't seem to believe him and summoned a knife. The fanciful side's eyes widened as he realized what was about to happen. If he said he was terrified then that would be an understatement. 

"Well, I don't care. You are mine and it is time for you to understand your punishment and place." With that Virgil pulled up Roman's sleeve and gave him a few cuts. This wouldn't be the last time this happened.

Roman trudged into the familiar metal room and just sat down at the chair, waiting for Virgil to appear. Sure enough, the purple themed side popped up right next to him. "You did it again you insolent fool." Roman tried to hold in a sigh. At this point he felt so numb whenever this happened, and he definitely no longer loved Virgil. Though he had to stay with him. Virgil had threatened to hurt the others if he complained or broke up with him. So, he basically became Vigil's servant. 

He hated it but was unable to see any ways out of it. So instead he took whatever punishment Virgil had chosen for it and forced his way through it. Roman waited as Virgil stalked around him like a predator preparing to leap at its prey. With a snap Virgil had a knife in his hand and was right on Roman's right with the knife poised above his exposed skin. "I gave you a final warning last time, and yet here you are again." 

Roman knew better than to try and reason with Virgil, since the other would just make his punishment worse. A sharp pain blossomed in his right arm as the knife broke skin and drew blood. He bit his tongue harshly to keep any noises from escaping, but that didn't stop tears from rolling down his face and blurring his vision. A few more sharp stabs of pain appeared in his arm before he heard Virgil walk around to his other side.

"I have an idea...." began the anxious side as he tore the knife down Roman's arm from the inside of his elbow to his wrist. Blood flowed freely, some staining his white prince outfit yet again. "What if... you just didn't..." Roman was confused by this statement. His mind was a little hazy from the pain, but if he meant stop the romantic stuff then he couldn't. Thomas's subconscious made him this way and there is nothing he could do about it. 

He didn't open his mouth to speak, though. He just waited for when Virgil continued, because there was no way Virgil would just leave a sentence off there. "What is you just didn't exist, Ro. Honey. Mi amor." Roman held in a noise that was a mixture of shock and disbelief. The Virgil he knew would never do this, though did he even know Virgil? Obviously not if he ended up in a situation like this.

"Any last words, my love?" Virgil asked, maneuvering himself so that he stood right in front of Roman. Though the later couldn't see him all that well through his vision blurred by tears and pain. Roman thought through the endless possibilities of short sentences that he could say. He didn't know if there was any right thing to say in this situation, but he knew it had to be short and straight to the point. So he settled on a three word phrase not enough people hear everyday. 

"I love you." Virgil's knife plunged into his chest ending the creative side.
