virgil was sitting in the living room on the floor, watching a random horror movie on netflix in season of halloween, even if it was two months away. he paused the movie and went into the kitchen to get fruit snacks and some water. while filling up his water, he noticed that it was quite late and logan wasn't home yet. sighing, he pulled his phone out of his pocket and texted logan, asking him where he was.

he walked back out into the living room at sat down, unpausing his movie. the movie was stupid, very cheesy and unoriginal but there wasn't much virgil could do if he wanted to watch horror movies because a lot were like that.

logan 🖤: hey sorry, i took a late night shift. i'll be home around 12, i love you, bye

virgil rolled his eyes at the message. he was happy that logan found a job where he actually likes having another shift but he wishes that logan wouldn't take extra shifts so often. he knows logan isn't cheating, but there are a lot of other worries than that.

virgil decided to text his friend, remy.

emo rat: yo horror movie marathon? lo is out late again

lazy a$$: of course, your order pls, sir?

emo rat: the regular but with extra spook™

lazy a$$: got it, ill be over in 10

emo rat: thx ur da best

lazy a$$: ik emo rat

virgil laughed and locked his phone, turning his attention to the movie, some girl was screaming running away from some serial killer. he exited the movie and browsed through netflix for good movies to watch.

he spent about eight minutes preparing for remy, by choosing movies and setting up a snack station, when remy finally arrives. "hey gurl! open up, i got our coffees and extra pillows and blankets!" virgil smiled to himself and walked over to the door opening it up. remy shoved his two iced coffees in his face. "now let's go watch some horror movies!"

virgil walked over and sat down, patting the seat next to him foe remy to sit down. "what's first on our agenda?"

"well i was thinking of going from cute scary to 'oh god i can't sleep alone' scary. does that sound good?"

"yes!" remy cheered, smiling. virgil hit play and the intro for coraline began to play.

virgil got through three and a half movies before he fell asleep since he didn't drink his coffee to stay awake. remy smiled at his friend and started cleaning everything up, knowing logan would be home soon and would not like to clean it up himself.

remy was slightly mad at logan, but he knew logan had good intentions. the door opened and remy looked over his shoulder.

logan hung his coat up and walked out into the living room, putting his breif case down. he walked over to virgil and pushed his bangs out of his face and kissed his forehead. logan heard some footsteps behind him. "hey, remy." he said, not bothering to turn around.

"hey." remy said awkwardly. he rubbed the back of his neck. "i'm gonna go, tell virge to get the blankets back to me when he can and don't rush it. see ya later." and with that remy was gone.

logan sighed, frowning at the fact that he kept having to take overtime but if he wants to get virgil the perfect ring, then he'll have to do it for a little more time. "i love you, and i promise you soon, you won't have to worry about me staying out late."
