Virgil tripled checked that he had everything with him that he needed.

Phone. Keys. Wallet.

Coat. Hat. Scarf. Gloves.

Once he was sure he had everything he needed, he reached for the handle of the front door. But before he could open it, he heard a voice behind him.

"Wait!"

Virgil turned his head. "What do you need, Pat?"

"You haven't even said goodbye."

Virgil gave Patton a confused look. "I thought I had. Didn't you hear me?"

"I did, but I didn't get any goodbye kisses."

Patton approached Virgil, running his hands up Virgil's arms, before settling them just by his scarf.

"Right, right, sorry," Virgil said. "Goodbye kisses are very important."

Patton smiled. "They are!"

Patton then tugged on the ends of the scarf, pulling Virgil into a kiss. It was warm and soft and everything Virgil could want when it came to a kiss, except that it ended too early.

"You know I'm only going to the store down the road, right?" Virgil said. "I won't be gone for long."

"But I'll still miss you," Patton said.

He then pulled back, turning his head in the direction of the living room door.

"Thomas!" Patton called out. "Come here, we're giving Virgil kisses."

"You know, you might end up keeping me here longer than it would take to get to the shop and back," Virgil said.

"Are you saying you don't want to kiss me, then?" Thomas joked.

"Of course not," Virgil answered immediately.

Thomas walked over to them. He noticed that the ends of the scarf were in Patton's hands, and they were wordlessly passed over to him like Patton was psychic.

Virgil snorted. "You guys know you don't have to pull me into kisses, right? I'll kiss you willingly."

"Why do you smell like lemons?"

"I just spilled an entire bottle of lemonade over myself," Patton admitted.

Virgil blinked, lowering his phone.

"Really?" He asked incredulously.

Patton smiled sheepishly at Thomas and Virgil. He shrugged.

"It was an accident?" He said, the phrase coming out more like a question than a statement. "I'm sticky."

Thomas covered his mouth with his hand, clearly trying not to laugh, though he failed and still ended up chuckling. Virgil's nose wrinkled as he looked over Patton's lemonade-covered clothes.

Patton gigled. "Hey, hey, Virgil."

"What?"

"I'm pretty sure I should be the one with the sour face, here."

Thomas then laughed openly, dropping his hand to his side and looking over his boyfriend's with a jolly grin. Virgil rolled his eyes at the pun and the laughter, though his expression was unmistakably fond.

His boyfriends both gave him expectant looks, watching him with matching grinning expressions. It took a moment, but then Virgil gave in and laughed, too.

"Right," Virgil said. "You should probably take a shower."

"And put those clothes in the wash," Thomas added.

"Alright," Patton nodded. Then, his eyes lit up and he straightened up. "Ooh! Maybe we can change into our onesies and have a pj party, a movie night!"

"Yes, and pizza for dinner!" Thomas agreed

They both turned to Virgil, looking to him for the final confirmation.

"Didn't we have pizza, like, two nights ago?"

Patton pouted. "Aww, come on! Please?"

"Yeah, please?" Thomas leant in, throwing his arm around Virgil's shoulder and squeezing gently.

Patton did his best puppy-dog eyes, and Virgil snorted.

"Alright, alright, fine," he said, in a tone of voice that said he wasn't really annoyed, and really just amused by his boyfriends.

And fond, too.

"Yay!" Patton cheered.

He reached forward, pressing a kiss to Virgil's cheek.
