Virgil pov
Tw: cutting

I got to my room and I went to my bathroom and grabbed my razor blade and I made cuts after cuts slicing the blade across my wrist. I stopped when my wrist was painted Scarlet. I cleaned my wrist and the sink and bandaged the cuts. I started worrying if Roman would notice I did it again but then realized he would know anyway because we both see each other at night. I felt shame wash over me in the speed of light because he looked so upset that I did the others.

Time skip brought to you by the angst in this book

Roman pov

It's time to go and it's time to meet up with Virgil. I got to the dream world and we stopped flying and I noticed blood stained bandages on Virgil's wrists and frowned at Virgil,who looked down in shame. "Hey Virgil." I attempted a smile and it didn't work. "Roman stop faking a smile. I know your doing it because I do it all day everyday. Just say it." I supposed it was no use so I said " why did you do it? I understand you were upset but why didn't you tell me you had the urge?" "It told me to." " What told you to?" " The voice in my head that's basically my depression." I nodded and said " just come to me next time you have the urge to do it." He nodded and we flew to our respective parts of the dream realm.

We parted ways and I went to the place I've been dreading to go all day, the nightmare realm. I saw that the creatures we're already trying to break the wall that separates the dream realm from the nightmare realm. I decided that tonight,I would use the element of surprise. I snuck to the back of the group and quickly and quietly as I could,killed half of the group without getting seen but I slipped up and all of them saw me. I beat them with a lot more ease than normal but I still got gashes on my arms and a few of my feathers got pulled out. Thomas was about to wake up so I packed up and I started thinking as I flew. I hope Roman's alright. I don't want his handsome face to be- WAIT HANDSOME?!?! God I think I have a crush on Roman. I got to the dream realm and found Roman unharmed but looking very tired. He saw my gashes and healed them with the magic he gains in the dream realm. I thanked him and we went back to the mind scape but that was a mistake for me.
