Logan sat on his bed, thinking. He didn't like thinking about these sorts of things, yet his mind kept wandering back there, and he was powerless to stop it. This man had lived in their house for so many years, and all of a sudden began to hang out with them. One random day that his personality shifted. Or rather, one day that he let his personality show. Either way, it was strange. Logan decided it best to not think about it that way, however. He lied down and shut his eyes, letting sleep take over his exhausted body.

The next morning, Logan woke up wondering if Anxiety would once again stay in their company. He got dressed as usual and walked down the stairs. Patton was cooking happily, Roman was leaning against the counter and talking with him, and Anxiety was standing there too. He wasn't in the conversation, but was there too. Logan came down the stairs as Patton handed Roman a piece of toast. Roman shoved it in his mouth and went to the door, offering a smile and a wave as he left the apartment.

"Where is he off to? It's Saturday." Logan asked, and Patton smiled brightly.

"He said he's going to the mall. Apparently getting the part warents a trip to but clothes." Patton said, and Anxiety gave a small smile from the corner.

"I don't have any work this weekend, so I'm free." Logan said, "What about you?"

"Yep!" Patton said, "We're closed today! What about you, Anx?"

Anxiety seemed less surprised today by questions than yesterday. As if he was getting used to inclusion. "Oh, I don't have anything to do this weekend." He said simply, and Patton grinned.

"Well then, I know what we can do!" Patton said cheerfully, "Come on!"

Logan wondered why they couldn't just enjoy a day by themselves in their own rooms. But nevertheless he followed Patton as he went to the door. Anxiety followed them as well, staying apprehensive, but still coming.

They walked down the sidewalks and Logan wondered where they were even going. Anxiety seemed to be enjoying it, though, smiling to himself. Logan wondered how often he was even outside. The man had thrived in his solidarity for years, so Logan doubted he even had a job with people. If he even had one at all, that is. Soon, they arrived at a large park. Patton turned around to face the other two, and did jazz hands.

"Surprise! The park!" He said cheerfully. Logan glanced around at his surroundings. A large field with trees and flowers. Then just a empty grass field with benches. It was a beautiful place. The air smelled like fresh cut grass and sweet smelling flowers, the two scents dancing in the air to form a new aroma. The sky was a brilliant blue here, and the clouds were spread thin across the sky. A small breeze whipped through the air, blowing the three's hair slightly and giving a sense of peace. Logan appreciated the flora and fauna surrounding him. He noticed the way Anxiety took in every inch of his surroundings, eyes darting around to every single wildflower, tree and stone. It was clear he liked the park already.

Patton skipped down the path, and Logan and Anx followed behind. Patton was just happily looking around, pointing out little things like flowers. Logan was admittedly bored by the whole experience, keeping up a neutral expression and mannorisms for Patton's sake. But Anx seemed the most thrilled with the whole thing. As if he never wanted to leave. He probably wouldn't if that was an option.

They found a bench surrounded by flowers and Patton sat down happily.

"It's surrounded by flowers!" Patton said, beaming, "That means it's good luck!"

"How does that make it good luck?" Logan asked skeptically.

"Because! That means it's a fairy circle!" Patton cheered, as if it was obvious.

Logan just blinked in confusion, "What?"

"That means it's a fairy circle!" Patton restated with a big smile, "When fairies like a spot, they grow a ring of flowers around it. That way, they never forget it, even when they're older. They see the fairy circle, and remember when they grew it!"

Logan just stared blankly at him, before sitting beside him on the bench. "That doesn't make sense."

"Something doesn't need to make sense to be true, Lo!" Patton gave a gentle smile, "The stuff you say doesn't make sense a lot of the time, but it's still true, right?"

Logan gave a tiny smile. Patton was strange and illogical at times but had a way of making Logan happy. Anxiety sat down on the end of the bench, beside Logan.

"Besides, even if Patton is wrong and fairy circles aren't real, he's right in that it's special." Anx looked up at the sky as he spoke softly, "It's special because we made it special. A memory was made here, and in turn, it's beautiful."

The words echoed through the air around them. Logan was amazed that someone so reserved and quiet could have something that meaningful to say. Patton looked on the verge of tears. Logan felt odd, as if the words struck so deep he couldn't even feel the effects anymore.

The quietest people are the ones who have the most to say, after all.

It had been nearly an hour, and they had said nothing. Patton broke the silence in a quiet, happy voice.

"We should probably head home, guys." He said, and Logan looked over at him

"Yeah." They stood up, but Anxiety didn't. His head was still tilted back with his face towards the sky. His eyes were closed contently and his mouth was a small smile.

"You guys go ahead. I'll catch up in a minute…" he said, and Logan and Patton nodded before heading off in the direction they came.

After a few minutes, Anxiety tried to stand up, which he did. He began to walk after them, but something all to familiar overtook him. His legs betrayed him, and he collapsed forward. He heard a few gasps around him from passerbys, and he struggled to stand, which he couldn't. His legs just kept rebelling, only half obeying what he asked them to do. Soon, a woman came and helped him up, but he fell again immediently. She pulled out her phone and called an ambulance, which came quickly and took Anxiety away.

Logan and Patton heard the sirens and saw an ambulance drive by.

"So sad!" Patton cried, "I hope whoever's hurt is okay!"

"I'm sure they're fine, Patton." Logan reassured him, and Patton nodded as they continued down the sidewalk. They thought nothing else of it. After all, why would they?

The phone call that came was both a revelation, and a curse.
