Don't Let Me Be Gone

Forty Six

A/N —— I have decided to just keep adding chapters to this book. It seems like all you guys would prefer for me to just keep writing this instead of a sequel. So here's the next chapter!

Virgil POV

Something feels wrong.

I can't place what. Something just feel wrong. My body feels wrong. My chest hurts so fucking much, at least it's been reduced to a dull pain now. Maybe it's just my anxiety acting up.

It kinda feels like a cackle of electricity in the air. It makes me uneasy, though I know it's nothing. Again, it's probably just my anxiety making me uncomfortable about what happened last night.

I made such a fool of myself last night. Panicking and screaming like that. I bothered everyone. Woke everyone up.

I can barely open my eyes. I can't keep them open. It hurts. Everything hurts.

I'm in Roman's room. I can feel him pressed up against my side.  He feels warm.  I like having Roman there.  It keeps my grounded, keeps me distracted from the pain.

I open my eyes and look up at the ceiling.  God my chest fucking hurts.

"Roman." I mumbled. Almost instantly, Roman jerked upwards.

"What?! I'm up I'm up! What's wrong?" He shouted, still half asleep.

"Nothing's wrong." I told him.  I laughed a little but it just ended in a cough. 

"Are you okay?"  He asked, leaning on his side.  He looked down at me, still rubbing sleep from his eyes.

"Yeah, I'm just hungry." I told him. "And my chest's starting to hurt again."

"I'll get you some more painkillers from Logan," Roman said, getting out of the bed. "And I'll grab you something from the kitchen. Patton's been baking a lot in your absence."

I nodded and smiled lightly. I wanted him to come back to bed and just hold me until I felt better again, but I wanted food just a little more.

Roman POV

I knocked on Patton's door, knowing full well that the nerd had slept here overnight.

"Come in." Came Logan's voice. I pushed open the door and nearly squealed at the sight.

Logan was lying on Patton's bed. Patton had seemed to latch onto Logan, hugging him almost Koala like.

"Be quite," Logan told me. "If you wake Patton up I will personally see to your death."

"Figuratively right?" I asked in a joking manner. Logan raised an eyebrow and glared at me.

"Don't test me on how much I'd be willing to do for Patton's happiness." He said lowly.

"Oh okay." I said awkwardly, my eyes widening in fear. I didn't know Logan cared that much about Patton. "So...Virgil needs more painkillers."

"They are in the hall bathroom." Logan told me.

"Thanks Logan." I said, turning to leave.

"Wait." Logan said. "Patton informed me that he invited Remy and Picani over for dinner and to see Virgil."

"Okay, thanks for the warning," I said. "I'll talk to Virgil about it."

"Also, if you were planning on getting a breakfast of sorts for Virgil, I would refrain from doing so." Logan advised. "Considering he hasn't had a proper meal in a while, he needs to ease back into eating slowly. Also Patton informed me he wanted to make breakfast for all of us. A big family breakfast all together again, as he put it."
