it was the sixth session when virgil finally came to terms he was falling for logan. it started off as a great friend, to a best friend, and now it has developed into the thing he has always dreaded. a crush.
and he knew that logan didn't like him back. why would he? virgil felt he had nothing to offer to logan except his problems. virgil wanted to try to lessen his feelings for logan by going with another person for the group activity but that didn't seem to work. "you do know, you can go back to him if you really wanted to." roman said, smirking. virgil blushed and looked back to the task at hand.
"i'm really sorry, i just. i just can't keep my mind off of him, so i thought choosing a different partner would help but it didn't.. again i'm extremely sorry." roman laughed and said it was okay. virgil and roman tried to continue on with the task but he couldn't help but steal glances towards logan who was currently with jen. he looked to be having a great time.
when they finally got finsihed with the task, it was the end of the session. virgil got up from his seat on the floor and helped roman up. "good luck with him, dude." virgil blushed but thanked him, rushing over to valerie. he tried to avoid logan, knowing logan would tease him for blushing. but logan walked up to him anyways, taping his shoulder.
"hey, virge. so, how was today? looks like you got the hots for roman." he nudged virgil, wiggling his eyebrows.
"no, i don't like roman.. someone else. but it doesn't matter. how was you day, did you guys finish your task?" logan nodded and went on the explain their approach to it, there was a sparkle in his eyes, and it fasinated virgil so much that he barley noticed when logan said goodbye to him. "oh... bye!" he stood there, looking at his feet waiting for valerie to say it's time to go.

on the ride back to thier shared apartment was quiet, valerie not wanting to ake things awkward by asking about logan. it was obvious that the two liked each other, that's why no one ever tried to split them up. most even thought that they were together.
it wasn't until they were at the apartment when valerie said something. "are you and logan dating?" the words came out without hesitation. she coovered her mouth after saying it, seeing as virgil stopped.
"no... what, has he said something?" valerie couuld tell he was hoping logan had said something, virgil wasn't fidgeting.
"um, no, he hasn't. but the way you look at each other. and you text each other non-stop. and like, the way you both act when you first see each other, or when someone is leaving.. i don't know, that just seems like either you're dating or amazing friends."
virgil nodded, hoping up on the counter, pulling his phone out to look for insperation on a new painting. he got a text from logan after a half an hour of searching.
virgil didn't hesitate to grab his hoodie and leave the house, power walking to the park. it may seem a little desperate but he couldn't help himself. plus, he always told logan he didn't live far from the places he asked to meet at. after about ten minutes, he saw logan sitting there, and logan looked uncharacteristically nervous. he aproached the bench and sat down next to him. "hey, what do you need?"
logan didn't reply immediately, continuing to look at the floor. after two minutes, he sighed and looked towards virgil, "number one, i'm sorry if this messes anything up.. number two, wouldyouliketogoonadatewithme?" virgil blinked, trying to decipher exactly what logan said, until he heard logan talk again. "look.. i might. ugh! why is this so hard?" virgil jumped at a car door closing and a man walking towards the two.

"hey you, you're virgil right? cool. okay, what logan here wants to know is if you'd like to go out with him. so would you?" virgil shook his head yes, confused on who this man was and if this was all just a set up. "great. logan would also like to know if you would like to go out on a date right now to go get ice cream. would you?" virgil nodded again, smiling. "okay. great. well have fun guys, my job is done. goodbye virgil, little bro." and with that, the man left the two, both a blushing mess on the bench.
--time skip like 3 years.--
skye groaned as her dad's kissed above her head, "come on, daddy! we have to get to school!" logan pulled away from virgil and kneeled down to their daughter's height.
"skye, it's our anniversary, can't we have a little fun?" logan pouted, making skye roll her eyes and sigh.
"fine. but i'm not waiting forever." virgil smiled down at the two as skye waited by the door. logan stood up and put his hands around virgil's waist, his head resting in the nook of virgil's neck. they stayed like that for a few seconds before logan pulled away and kissed his husband's cheek. "have to go, i'll be back once the princess arrives at her destination." virgil said bye to the both of them, sitting down on the couch, picking up the photobook off the table. he flipped to the back of the book, where he kept a printed out sheet of their first conversation out of the group. it was on the exact day they met.
he thought back to then, both him and logan were a mess. but after six weeks they got together. and yes, many fights and disagreements happened, lots of tears were shed. many promises broken, but they got through their problems together, and at the end of the day, that's all that matters to the two.

Flame Beneath The Snowfall
Alto is a world governed by Tones. Magic, as one might call it. Manifested through deep mental and physical conditioning, one can control the Tones in a way that is unique to them. The power to store items in gems, transfer life, affect a person's mind, and even the more primal abilities such as control of the elements. Those who have these supernatural abilities are called 'Vassals.' People that fully manifest their abilities are not as common as one might think, and not all Vassals acquire their ability through practice, given if conditions are met. In fact, those who had received much trauma manifest the Tones more frequently, albeit spontaneously. However, the rare kind of Vassals are those who manifest it from childhood. A gift, but not without its repercussions. Alto is stuck in a transitional era, where the line between modern and dated technology is blurred. One can travel to a city that has a tall skyline, bustling with people in sophisticated clothing, or a mere town governed by a lord, all the while riding on a powered vehicle. Cultures vary: Some turn to the more dated practices such as castes, others are more inclined to set equal footing on their people, led by nobility. Some are dedicated to become scholars, studying Alto's Tones, while others set foot on hunts, protecting lone towns from the creatures of some of the still-untamed lands. And the Vassals? Those willing are took under The Organization, an elusive group, its presence said to permeate all throughout Alto, taking care of Rogue Vassals that abuse their abilities and other businesses related to their side. But what is this story all about, you may ask? Well, set your sights on the upper portions of this huge landmass that is Alto. Yes, the 'whole' world is called Alto, but that is because the majority of the known people live on this large continent. Relieve yourself of the worrying tensions everywhere, and see the white snow. Trace the piercing mountaintops and focus your eyes between the valley. A town sits there. Mido. After realizing that the memories only left in his mind was the night of his town's imminent destruction in flames, a boy finds himself grasping for every fiber of his life as he lays down flat on the ground. Beneath him was soot mixed with the white snow. Fortunately, a group of investigators, who were supposed to answer their call for help, saved him from his sorry state. With a newfound second wind, but hampered by his loss of memory, he must solve his own case: Who had the audacity to set Mido, his town, aflame? Flame Beneath the Snowfall focuses on action, with a sense of adventure, but mostly the discovery of an outside world, and the protagonist's exposure to it. Add in a whisk of soft magical elements, and you get a story that I hope will be interesting to the readers. That is not to say that my work is without the sense of unnerving atmosphere, however. As a forewarning, there are elements of gore, horror, minor elements of mental trauma, etc. so it is not for all audiences. *The book is already completed. Although I have plans to continue the story (it would have to involve much larger scope in terms of world-building), I have yet to decide when to start the next entry.

I Don't (August Alsina)
"Just tell me you love me, man." He said. I thought about and after what he said, my love for him died. There was no love. He wasn't the same man I fell in love with. He was different. He changed and I didn't love this new guy in front of me. "I can't." I said. He looked at me, tears in his eyes. "Don't do this, man. You love me, baybeh. I know you do."I bit my lip, trying hard not to cry in front of him. "August," I gulped, cursing myself because the tears I said I wouldn't shed, were shedding. "I don't love you anymore. I don't."
