(POV- Virgil)
Wednesday 8:30pm
I wake up to my stomach growling and turn my head to the left and see a clock. The clock says 8:30 which makes me realize it's already past dinner. I get off the bed and throw some black skinny Jean's on. I walk over to the door slowly opening it, looking around too see theirs a light in the living room. Without anyone noticing me I walk over to the kitchen and grab a sandwich and soda. Instead of risking me being seen I instead decided to teleport back to my room. For three more days my life stayed like that, leaving my room only when I specifically had to do so or being in my room. Most of my time spent in my room was me looking around my new room or crying on my bed because I missed spending time with Remus and Janus. "I'm finally realizing this now but I really miss Janus and Remus even more so, now I know I should have confessed to Janus before I left" Virgil thought.
Sunday Midnight Thomas's bedroom
Before anyone could even feel it I was already by Thomas's side lulling him back to sleep from his nightmare. Before I could leave the room Thomas asks in a calm tone "Where were you these past couple days Patton was getting worried?"
"S-sorry I've been in my room this whole time instead of being around you guys" I paused "it's just I didnt feel safe Roman was particularly mean even though I'm new and he barely knows me....."
"I dont know why but I feel so calm around you, I feel safer with you" Thomas mutters.
"I guess that's a good thing it at least means you are comfortable with being around me, now you should get some sleep you have a big day tomorrow" I say.
I then kiss him on the forehead and leave him to his dreams. I sink down and pop up back in my room. I walk over to my bed and curl up into a ball. After about 30 minutes of tossing and turning I'm finally able to get some sleep.
Sunday 7:30am
I wake up to a strange noise. I then hear it again but this time I recognize it as a knock on my door. Outside my door I hear some one talking "Hey Anxiety it's me Patton, I'm worried that you haven't been eating could you please open the door?".
I walk over to my door and slightly open it. "H-hey uhm Patton, I'm fine I have been eating so please don't worry about me" I say in a shy manner.
"How about breakfast? No one is up right now but us, plus I would like to get to know what kind of person you are" Patton says.
"Fine.... l-lets have breakfast however, I'm only doing this because no one else is down there so I guess it's fine" I said.
(Change POV-Third Person Omniscient)
As Patton turns around and starts to walk towards the kitchen Virgil closes her door and cautiously walks after Patton. Once they both are in the kitchen Patton asks "So kiddo what would you like for breakfast?"
In a shy tone "I want something having to do with fruit if that's ok?" Virgil replies
Patton then suggests "Hmm... how about oatmeal with raspberries, blueberries, strawberries and bananas on top and the brown sugar will be mixed in the oatmeal itself?"
"Sounds good." Virgil replies quietly yet clearly.
"Hey maybe after were done eating we can make cinnamon rolls for the others?" Patton suggests
Virgil then replies with "S-Sure that sounds great"
As soon as they finish making and decorating there food they pre-heat the oven for the cinnamon rolls, they then sit down at the table to eat. For awhile all you could hear was the slightest amount of chewing. Because of the awkwardness and tention Patton decides to speak. He starts to ask questions about Virgil and what He likes, of course Virgil answers though not in a lot of detail. After awhile one question in particular sparks Virgil interest. "Hey kiddo why did you leave the table so suddenly the other day?" Patton asked
"Well I felt quite offended about what Roman said, the words itself didn't hurt but what did was the fact that he had already made an accusation of me even though he barely knows me" Virgil answered knowing that what she was saying was partially the truth.
Patton then says "That's understandable, I'll try my hardest to make sure that doesn't happen again just so you can feel a bit more comfortable around us".
Virgil thanks him and leaves the table taking her plate to rinse it with water and then put it in the dish washer. She the places the cinnamon roll tray into the oven. She turns when Patton says "Hey uhm if you want you can call me Dad or Padre like the others, of course if your up for it" Patton says.
"I'll think about it and maybe once I'm a bit more comfortable with being around you I'll tell you my name" Virgil says.
"Ok goodbye then Anxiety and btw Thank you for helping with Thomas's nightmare last night" patton says.
"It's no problem after all it's my job and you knew about that?" Virgil asks
Patton stands up "Yeah.... I'm really grateful too you, without you I'd feel so helpless I was never able to help him with his nightmares, me and the others would just watch knowing that we can't help at all" Patton replies shedding a few tears.
Virgil then walks over to him and pulls him into a hug and says "Hey no need to cry I'm here I'll be able to make sure he never experiences those nightmares again".
They both stop hugging and Virgil leaves to go back to his room.
