tw: uncensored swearing
Sunday morning,
vacant doorwayWipe the sunlight
from your eyesAnd trace your favorite constellation
on their skinOverwhelmed by
the emotionWatching cogs turn in your mind
You sort of wonder
where this wonderMay have been
'Cause you're always
in betweenStuck behind the TV screen
In somebody
else's dreamFeeling like a ghost
Virgil tripped over himself, falling backwards before Patton caught him in a dangerously low dip. This was the third time he had messed up the run through of their routine.
"Damn it. Sorry, Patton." Virgil apologized.
"Oh, it's okay kiddo. We did very well, you just weren't quite ready for the next step." Patton smiled at his best friend of nineteen years and dancing partner of five.
Virgil forced a small smile.
"Anyways, it's getting late. I was going to go stop by the coffee shop to see Logan, would you care to join me?" Patton asked.
"Sure, why not." Virgil mumbled. He always went with Patton to the coffee shop.
"There's a new guy, he goes to our school, majors in theatrical arts. He's cute, I think you'll like him." Patton smiled deviously, "no backing out though, you already said you'd come."
Virgil sighed. Patton was a good friend, but he was restless when it came to getting Virgil to try dating again.
He slipped his backpack strap over his shoulder. "Whatever you say Pat, I'm gonna go change now." Virgil quickly changed the subject.
"Alright kiddo. I'll be right behind you." Patton replied as Virgil slipped out of the room and made his way down the hallway of the performing arts hall. He opened the door to the bathroom, finding a stall and changing rather quickly.
Patton was just coming in the bathroom when he began stuffing his dance clothes in his backpack on the counter where the sink was.
Patton shot him a smile in the mirror and disappeared into a bathroom stall.
Virgil stepped out of the bathroom and waited outside for Patton, who joined him a short two minutes later.
"Ready kiddo?" Patton smiled at Virgil.
"Yeah, sure." Virgil followed after Patton to the parking lot out back. They located Patton's car in record time and climbed in.
"Let's go." Patton giggled, starting the car and pulling out of the parking lot rather quickly.
