Chapter 24 (Virgil's POV)

I was in the bathroom, almost ready for my date. It was 15:24, I just needed to finish putting my eyeshadow and...

"I'll got get it!" I heard Patton exclaimed. Oh fuck, he was early! I needed to hurry up. But I couldn't rush it. This was a special day. He'd need to wait. 

I got the black pigment and carefully applied it to my eyes when I noticed something else in my makeup bag. It had been a long time since I had used that one... But, why not? I was looking for a change so...

"Virgil!" Roman exclaimed when I came out of the bathroom. He was wearing a light red shirt with dark blue jeans and black shoes. And had his hair tidier than usual but still curly and wild, "Here, I- wow. Your eyeshadow!"

Yep, my eyeshadow. Today I was wearing a dark purple shirt, my black and purple hoodie and my black jeans. I had also combed my hair, more successfully than my boyfriend. And then, my eyeshadow... Instead of my usual black one, I had also added a thin layer of deep purple. I wasn't sure how they would react. I had never tried something different, and I was a bit anxious about it...

"You look amazing," Roman said, getting closer.

"Sure?" I asked.

"Yes. Sorry I couldn't bring you anything, like flowers or something like that, but I thought I was late, and I didn't know if you'd like it so I just-"

"Shh," I whispered, "It's perfect just like this," 

"Aww, you two are adorable together!" Patton exclaimed. I had forgotten he was here! My face turned red.

"Pattooon!" I groaned, slightly embarrassed.

"Come on Virge. Let's go out on our date," Roman said, grabbing me by the arm as he escorted my to the door.

"So where are we going?" I asked when we got out of the dorm buildings. The sky was blue today, for the exception of a few dark grey clouds. 

"Well, I was thinking of going to the park, for a walk and enjoy of the afternoon, and then going to have dinner in a place I know," He answered.

"Oh, so I see you have it all planned. Nice," I said, walking closer to him.

In about ten minutes, we arrived to the park. When we entered, we were just walking close to each other, but in little time Roman held my hand. He guided me through the paths as he knew exactly where he was going. We ended up in a part with loads of green trees filled with flowers of all colours, white, red, pink, yellow... It was beautifull, just like in a dream.

Roman insisted on doing a photoshoot. He told me where to stand, what pose to put and then he fluttered around me taking photos with his phone and telling me he wanted to take the perfect shoot. He also decided to do some selfies, since he also wanted to get photos of himself for his instagram. I didn't resist. At the end he showed me the photos that he took, and I had to admit, they were amazing. This boy had a talent for the arts of photography.

It was a long walk. Alfter an hour or two I started to get hungry, and after some time I told Roman. He said that he had a solution for that. It was still a bit early for dinner, but he didn't care. Roman guided me through the streets until we arrived to an italian restaurant. A fancy one.

"Uh, Roman, this is nice, but... Isn't this place a bit too much? I mean, I didn't bring much money and..." I started. 

"Don't worry Stormcloud," He interrupted me, "Dinner's on me."

We didn't need to wait too much to get our table. We sat down and got our menus. They were in italian, and even if they had a translation to english, I still had no idea on what each plate was, but I was too embarrassed to admit it, since Roman seemed to comprehend everything. I looked for familiar words and found pizza. Great! Pizza was a reliable friend. I decided to order a prosciutto one, whatever that meant. 

"Do you know what you want?" Roman asked me, lowering his menu.

"Uh, yeah, prosciutto pizza, I guess," I answered, "How about you?"

"I'm of some lasagna today... But there are also some other really good plates in here. They make good pasta. But I'm not sure... I mean, I'm not super hungry, and in this place they tend to make the plates really satiating... I'm not sure. How about we order a big prosciutto pizza and we share?" He proposed. I really had no idea on what he was talking about. I only went to restaurants with my family in very special occasions, and even then, it wasn't to good places, normally just japanese food. 

"Yeah, sure, a big one to share. Why not?" I answered.

Just then, a waitress came by. She had fiery red hair, curly, up in a messy bun. She was wearing a white, a black vest, a black bowtie and black dress pants. 

"Do you two know what you want?" She asked.

"Yes!" Roman exclaimed, "We'd like a grande prosciutto pizza, and a big water bottle, cold, please."

"Sure! Something else?"

"No, thanks. That's all," Princy answered.

"Ok. It'll be ready in a few minutes," She said, walking over to the kitchen. 

About 20 minutes later, our dinner was ready. We ate and talked, talked and ate. For dessert, I had chocolate and vanilla ice cream, and Roman had a tiramisu, a typical italian dessert that consisted of cold cake, cream, and some cacao powder. When we finished, my boyfriend insisted on paying, even if I was a bit uneasy with it at first.

When we got outside again the sky was already dark, and just a few traces of yellow and teal where left of the sunset in the sky. We walked side to side, holding hands, all the way to the dorms building. When we got in, Roman grabbed me by both hands. I stopped to look at him.

"I guess here is where we have to walk our separate paths," He said, melancholically. He was right. I had almost forgotten, his apartment was at the left side of the building, mines at the right. 

"Yes, I guess so," I said, tiptoeing so I could reach his cheek and kiss him, "See you tomorrow Princy,"

"See you tomorrow Stormcloud."

Finally! I finished this chapter! It took forever! This chapter took so long to write- mostly because it's not part of the main story. I just thought that y'all deserved to have a date chapter, in case theres any prinxiety shipper in here, even if this story is analogical... And don't worry, we'll get to our main ship. Eventually. Anyways, take it easy, guys gals and non binary pals!
