Patton sent me a text last night explaining what's going on, and Yeesh I did not expect that to happen, I mean I trust Patton he is my cousin after all but damn could this all really be true? Anyway I should probably go get his stuff that he needs and his wallet, I'm not going to spend his money though as he might need it. And he told me very clearly that I can't tell anyone not even my boyfriend so I'm going to have to come up with an excuse as to why he can't go into the garage, I hate lying but it's important. While I'm out I grab the nessecities as well as some extra blankets and some food that they can keep in there to eat incase I can't sneak them food.

Luckily Remy usually sleeps until noon so I have time to drop off the stuff for Patton and Roman before starting breakfast and heading to class. I'm in university studying psychology with a minor in animation. Remy knows I paint a lot so I can just leave a sign on the inside garage door telling him not to come in because of fumes. But before I go in to give Pat and Roman their stuff I put Remy's iced coffee no ice in the fridge so he can add ice and it doesn't melt into the coffee. Then I grab the bags and text Patton to let me in incase one of them is changing. The door pops open ever so slightly and I hear a whisper "He's asleep but come in." So I walk in to be treated by not Patton but Roman.

"Clothes, blankets, toiletries, chargers, food, and some books Patton thought you two would like, I haven't got your phone yet but I have a plan for that." I say as he helps me bring the bags in and close the door. "Oh and I almost forgot, Patton's wallet and some scripts he stole from you that were in his locker." I say pointing at one of the bags. "Aside from your name that popped up on Patton's phone I don't know who you are let alone what's going on and I'm starting to get pissed because nobody tells me anything!" Roman whispers as menacingly as he can while not waking Patton. "I'm Emille Patton's cousin, and you are going to need to stay quiet because my boyfriend isn't supposed to know that you two are here. As for what's happening that's not for me to say but I want you to understand that this is really upsetting Patton so please be nice." I say helping him to unpack starting with food that goes in the minifridge. I had been planning on renovating this place into an AirBNB so there were some basic things in here for them to use. "Wait you're Emille? Patton has told me about you. Aren't you dating that guy who somehow got a night shift at a Starbucks?' He begins to smile questioningly. "Yep, that's my boyfriend Remy." I chuckle internally at the fact that this is what he has a reputation for, well that and being a super chaotic neutral but I'm pretty sure I can't tell Roman about that part.

"N-no babe please we can talk this through Logie you don't have to do this. I I love you, you are better than this!" I hear a slurred whisper coming from Patton. We both run over to him and wake him up. "Patton it's me Emille and Roman is here too, you are okay, you are safe, okay. I promise you are safe here." I tell him while pulling him into a hug. "Why would he do that! I mean he hit me and then he fixed me up and is that why I got saved and why didn't he tell me he had powers and how did he clone himself and why would he do this-" He chokes as he spirals into a panic attack. "Hey Patton focus on me okay? I'm right here," Roman takes Patton's hand and places it on his own chest as Patton turns to look at him. " I need you to take some deep breaths with me, okay in... and out. In, and out." He repeats this for a few minutes as Patton calms down.

"Patton, how are you feeling now?" I say handing him a bottle of water. "Better, a little fuzzy but better." He says after drinking most of the bottle. "I have to go to class and then I'm going to get Remy out of the house so you guys can take showers and stuff, will you be okay with Roman?" I ask him, hearing Roman throw something in the trash but not paying attention to it as it doesn't really matter. "I will be okay, go to class. I love you Emille!" He says with a small hint of a smile. "I love you too, and if you guys need anything else let me know Remy gets bored in art stores so I can pretend I'm getting more art supplies." I say before standing up to walk away. As I'm walking out I glance towards the trash and sitting in it is a pile of tissues that are badly hiding a almost entirely burned one. What the hell is happening here. I think closing the door behind me and heading to the kitchen to start on breakfast.

I'm making waffles when I feel a pair of arms wrap around me and a kiss on my cheek. "Hey babe breakfast is almost ready, and there's Starbucks in the fridge." I say savouring the moment. "Awww, you're the best! So what are you up to today?" Remy says grinning so much I can hear it in his voice. "Just classes really why?" I ask though I'm fairly certain I know why. "Do you think that you could drop my at Virgil's house he said he needs to talk and that it's urgent." He says starting to sound worried. "Of course we can head out after breakfast/lunch or whatever we are calling this meal." I say trying not to let him on to what's really going on.

After breakfast we head out and when we arrive at Virgil's house I quickly say, "Can I come with you I really need to pee!" I exclaims trying to sound urgent. "Yep come on." He groans and as soon as the door opens I bolt past Virgil to his room shutting the door and snatching Roman's phone out of the drawer before running into the bathroom and pouring out my reusable water bottle into the toilet to make it sound like I'm actually peeing. Then I run the sink while I slip Roman's phone into my pocket behind my own phone. I turn off the water and walk out of Virgil's room sheepishly. "That bad huh?" He says laughing. "Yeah, and I would stay longer but I have to get to class sorry." I say trying to seem apologetic while hoping that they can't see that my one pocket is much bigger than it should be. "Dang gurl your ass looks great in those pants!" Remy whispers in my ear as I leave. "Love you too babe!" I respond with a giggle.

Once I'm about a block away it finally really hits me what I've done. My cousin and his best friend are hiding in my garage from their boyfriends who apparently one of them is a supervillain. To be fair the conversations I overheard between them and Remy make more sense. But then I stole from one of the boyfriend's house and I'm lying to Remy. But as long as I'm keeping Patton safe that's all that matters, I promised that I would protect him no matter what and that's what I will do. I drive back to the house and drop the phone off before speeding to make it to class.
