Ever since that day that Logan cried, everyone hasn't been in his room. Logan hasn't come out of his room. There was only one person caring for him. Patton.

Patton brought Logan food and would set it outside his room. He would bring Logan's laundry. He would even sit down on the floor and talk to him. What he doesn't know, is that Logan has been listening.

Logan always sat on the floor beside his door, waiting for Patton. Logan was wrong. Someone did care about him.

*****

"Logan, I got food for you. I'm gonna set it down." Patton said through the door and set his plate of food down on the floor. (That rhymed...)

Patton waited a few seconds then sighed and left. Logan quickly opened the door and took the food. Logan took it to his desk and ate silently. He didn't even think about locking the door after he took the food.

Patton was checking on everybody like usual. Then he got to Logan's door and sighed. His door was always locked. He turned the knob and it surprisingly opened.

Patton opened it more and looked around for Logan. There he was. At his desk. Passed out. Patton smiled and walked towards him. He looked at Logan and gently ran a hand through his hair.

Logan stirred and Patton froze, hand still in his hair. He removed it and backed away. Logan slowly opened his eyes and looked at Patton. He sat up.

"H-how did you-"

"Your door was unlocked," Patton said quickly. "I can go if you want."

"No. It's fine." Logan said and saved his work on his computer. Logan could tell Patton wanted to ask a question. "It's clear you want to ask something."

"Um... just how long have you had those scars?" Patton asked.

"Since after my brother died. Which was 10 years ago."

"Oh..."

"What do you think of me?" Logan asked suddenly.

"What?"

"What... do you think of me?"

Patton thought for a few seconds. "Well... I think you're my hero and incredible."

"But why? I'm a nobody."

"Don't say that, Lo. You're amazing. I love the way you talk about something you like. We used to have sleepovers in our onesies and I miss it. You grew distant and no one knew why." Tears started to form in Patton's eyes. "I was deeply sad that you ignored everyone, especially me..."

"Why?"

"Because I... I love you, Logan." Patton's tears came down one by one.

"..." Logan stayed silent for a while and Patton thought about leaving but Logan spoke up. "I love you too."

"Really?"

Logan nodded and slowly smiled. "Really."

"Can I hug you? I just feel the need to ask that." Patton said.

"Of course." Logan was then pulled into a hug by Patton. He slowly hugged back.

"I promise to never make you feel insecure again, Logan," Patton said.

And Logan never felt insecure after that. Only happiness.
