Prinxiety
Virgil balanced on his bed, taping down his new Evanescence poster. He could have simply willed the picture to be hung, but there was something satisfying about adding a new poster to his wall himself, no mind-powers needed. He had just secured the last corner when there was a knock on his door.

"What?" he said, analyzing the poster for spots he may have missed.

"It's me," a dramatic voice said through the door. Virgil rolled his eyes, letting himself plop down on his bed to sit.

"Come in."

The door opened to reveal Roman, as bright as usual. He looked around, then pointed. "New poster?"

Anxiety gave him a look. "Yeah, but how did you know?"

Roman flashed him a dazzling smile, making Virgil feel something he didn't know how to explain. "I'm observant. Anyway, Logan, Patton, and I were going to watch a Disney movie. Want to join us?"

"That depends, what movie?"

"Currently, we're stuck between Mulan and The Lion King."

"There's never a wrong time to dress in drag," said Virgil, ticking it off on his fingers, "and there's never a wrong time to dress in drag and do the hula." He looked up at Roman, surprised that Princey remembered that from the video, and that they said it in unison like the time before. Virgil found himself starting to smile, but he covered his mouth with his hand so Princey wouldn't see.

"It will probably be The Lion King," said Roman. "You know Patton's love for cute animals." Virgil found himself nodding.

"I'll be out in a minute," he said. "Don't start without me."

"You got it, Hot Topic." Before Anxiety could get another word in, Princey turned on his heel, walking out of the side's room with a laugh. Anxiety felt a blush creep across his face, and it annoyed him that, unlike a smile, he couldn't cover it.

He stood, admired his poster at the doorframe, then walked out, closing the door. he walked into the sides' living room to see Logan and Patton in an intense debate.

"Mulan is an excellent film about a girl overcoming the trials she faces and becoming a hero of China! Meanwhile, The Lion King is basically a retelling of Hamlet using animals."

"But they're cute animals!" protested Patton, his eyes lighting up with excitement at just the thought of it.

Logan's mouth opened again, ready to give another reason, when he simply closed it and grabbed a DVD. "The Lion King it is."

Patton clapped his hands together and grinned, giving Logan a side hug, causing him to blush. Roman, who had noticed that Virgil had walked in, shared a knowing look with him. They both knew that Patton and Logan had feelings for each other. It seemed to be obvious to everyone but Logic.

Logic sat down beside Morality, leaving the only empty space next to Roman on the edge. Virgil hesitated, then sat down beside the creative side. The movie started and, as expected, Roman belt out into song as the "Circle of Life " started to play. He nudged Anxiety playfully, causing him to blush. Roman was surprised to see color on the normally pale boy's face, but pretended not to notice. As the movie progressed, Patton fell asleep, leaning his head on Logan's shoulder. At some point, his head fell to Logan's lap as the Logical side fell asleep. Virgil had to admit, they looked cute. The movie ended, and as Virgil was about to get up, sleeping Princey's head fell on his chest, making Anxiety heat up like the many times before. He wanted to get up, get away from this awkward situation, but he also didn't want to wake Roman up.

What? He wasn't supposed to feel things like this. He's Anxiety, not exactly a facet that would feel romantic feelings. But as he looked down at the sleeping Prince, he couldn't help but feel feelings for Roman. He moved his arm so it was around Roman's back, then tilted his head back to rest it on the top of the couch as he drifted into a comfortable sleep for the first time in forever.

Roman woke to find himself curled on the couch, his head resting on Virgil's chest. He was surprised the other was letting him do that, but he didn't argue. He snuggled closer and wrapped his arms around Virgil. Before he closed his eyes, he swore he saw Anxiety slowly smirk.
