deceit hugged his knees and he looked out into the lake. he was tired of being seen as the bad guy by basically everyone. he said basically because virgil, his lovely boyfriend. deceit smiled at the thought of virgil.

virgil knew that he had the same intentions as everyone else, to protect thomas, but no! he must be a bad guy! he lies, he deceives! well he never asked to be this way! he wished roman would and logan would understand!

he numbly wiped to the tears that were falling down his face. "i can let their words get to me!" he lied, standing up. he took his trenchcoat off and let it fall to the floor. he then began to head off in a random direction.

he sent a text to virgil, lying about going to hang out with a friend. he just needs to go clear his mind and he doesn't want virgil worrying too much.

but for now, he just wants to get lost in nature and calm down.
