Sympathetic Deceit One Shots

Loceit (1)

Deceits name is Mendax in this oneshot.
Fluffy Loceit coming your way.
(Its my first fanfic so don't judge too hard)

There was a heavy thud as Mendax threw himself face first onto Logans bed. Logan didn't even look up from where he was sat, at his desk reading a book gifted to him by this very dramatic snake. Deceits tantrums had become common place since they got together. He usually let Mendax work it out for himself, Logans room gave all who entered it a boosted sense of Logic and Reasoning, it usually worked well enough. It would only take 10 minutes at most for Mendax to work out whatever was wrong, then he'd either spend time with Logan, or simply go about his business, not before gifting Logan a quick kiss either way. Logic waited in silence for Mendax to resurface as he usually did, keeping time in his head so he could note it for future reference. 

After 10 minutes, Logan began to get curious. Whenever Mendax came into his room in a bad mood, Logic never made him talk about it. He was content in knowing that if Deceit wanted to talk, then he would. However today seemed different. Logan marked his page with a nearby astronomy bookmark and looked up at his dramatic boyfriend. When he finally did look, he realised that this wasn't a normal day. 

Mendax was shaking, covering his face with both hands. His hat had fallen off in his haste to get onto the bed, and his normally well kept cape was wrinkled, looking to be restricting his breathing. Noting his uneven, quiet breaths, Logan began to plan his next moves. 

He quietly walked over to his closet, and pulled out Deceits yellow blanket and green Slytherin pyjamas. He then summoned a water bottle, and knelt down infront of Mandax, putting his hand on the bed close to him, but not touching. Not yet.

"Darling, are you alright?" He asked hesitantly, of couse he wasn't, he just didn't know how else to start the conversation. 

"Yes" Came the quiet reply from behind Deceits hands. So he was in self-defence mode. Logan picked up on his lying habbits early in their relationship.

"Do you want to tell me what happened?" All he got was a shake of the head in response. "Okay, would you like to change into something more comfortable?" A slight nod was given in return, he set down the water bottle and grabbed the pyjama shirt from the floor. "Alright, can you sit up for me, my Darling?"

Mendax was still shaking while Logan helped his love pull his slytherin pyjama shirt over his head. They heard Roman walk past the door. Mendax froze. Roman wasn't whistling or huming Disney as he usually was, in fact, he was walking quicker and lighter than usual. However, you could alway tell it was Roman, for a knight, he wasn't very quiet. That set off alarm bells in Logans head. 

"Argued with Prince Charming?" Logan asked, while giving Mendax the water.

"Maybe!" Came the snappy reply. Deceit looked guilty as soon as he said it, but he couldn't help it. Roman riled him up at the best of times, and what he said today was too far. However, Logans eyes only softened more.

"Would you like to talk about it?" 

"He called me usless. He told me I'm just hurting Thomas, and that I shouldn't even be in the Light Sector." Tears started to well in Deceits eyes, "He told me that he's never liked me, and that you're only with me because of pity." By this point the tears were streaming down Mendax's cheeks, "He told me I didn't deserve to be here." He mumbled something inaudible at the end. 

Logan was pissed! No one could talk to his love in such a way! It was always Roman! The stubborn little fucker! Logan was ready to kill him! 

"What was that last part?" Logan asked with a calmness he didn't feel.

"He called me a sly, slimy snake." Deceit whispered. That was Logans breaking point. He got up and started to pace the room. How dare he say such things? How could he? That was mendax's weak spot! They had all established that Dax was insecure about his serpent appearance! Logan stopped when he felt arms encircle his waist. 

"You're making me dizzy." Came Dax's quiet voice. Logan turned around in his arms and pulled Deceit as close as he could to him. There was quite a height difference between them, Logan standing around 3 inches taller than Dax. They both love it because it was easy for Logan to just kiss Dax's forehead.

"You are not a sly, slimy snake," Logan said with certainty, "you deserve to be here, with me. I love you so much." He felt his shirt getting slightly damp as the arms around his waist tightened. 

There was a long silence as they stood in the middle of Logans room, holding each other. Logan learnt early on in their relationship that actions spoke louder than words with Mendax. It was highly concerning for Logan, he wasn't very comfortable with touch. But he slowly learnt to adapt to Mendax' need for physical comfort.

He shuffled them both onto the bed, knowing that Dax wouldn't want to be left alone after this argument with Roman. He'd deal with that arogant Prince later on. But for now, Disneys Robbin Hood (1973) and cuddles for the foreseeable future
