Small Secrets Part 1 (Patton’s POV)
TW: drugged, kidnapping, unsympathetic patton.
Patton left the lasagna in the oven to cook and grabbed the small plates with the food for Roman and Virgil, he was always sad when he couldn’t have dinner with his boyfriends, but this night was special.
His new boyfriend, Dorian, was coming over for they one month anniversary, and Patton was ready to know if he could join the others in the dollhouse, Dee would look so cute at that size and Patton really hoped he wouldn’t run away.
He walked to his room closing the door behind him once he entered, he left the plates on the desk and sat in front of the dollhouse, knocking three times on the front wall where Virgil’s room was, he did the same with Roman’s afterwards and waited until he heard three knocks back coming from the lower part of the dollhouse, he grinned and opened it revealing the living room, kitchen and the dining room.
Two small figures stood in the center waiting for Patton to give them the food “sorry if it’s a bit early than usual, but I won’t be having dinner with you tonight and I have to leave your food early”
Roman and Virgil glanced at each other briefly, They were used to Patton not eating lunch with them because of his work or a date, but don’t having dinner with them was unusual, and Virgil knew the last time he didn’t Roman had arrived, it was lonely with just the two of them there, but they didn’t want another guy to be trapped too.
However, Patton has been looking for a third boyfriend for a long time, and this was the forth time in almost half a year he missed dinner, unfortunately, none of the past guys wanted to date a polyamorous person, it seemed cruel but the only reason they were there was because they were nice people.
“And why would that be Pat?” Asked Roman, even if both of them knew what was happening.
Virgil stood there silent, despite being there the longest, he was always nervous to talk, so, ever since Roman arrived, he would ask the questions and Virgil avoided speaking to Patton most of the time.
Patton giggled “I’m glad you asked Ro! My new boyfriend’s coming over, and I’m sure he’s one of us, you two will love him if everything goes according to plan” he said with a wide smile.
None of them would ever admit it, but Virgil and Roman were glad to see Patton so happy and determined, even if that meant shrinking and kidnapping another person, Patton was always a little possessive with his boyfriends and the first time someone rejected him for who he was was heartbreaking for the three of them, being a very emotional person, Patton always had a hard time accepting there were people who didn’t want someone like him.
“But don’t worry” he said, reaching to pet Roman’s head “I’ll always love you two no matter who joins us” he smiled and petted Virgil’s head next “And I’m sure you’ll help him to set in”
They were interrupted by a knocking on the front door, Patton stopped the petting and grabbed the plates with food “That must be him, he’s a bit early” he left the plates on the table in the dollhouse “I was hoping to spend more time with you until he arrived, but it doesn’t matter, I’ll let you know how everything goes” he smiled and closed the dollhouse.
(Fast forward to after Dee accepted Patton’s polyamorous self bc I don’t want to write everything again)
Patton walked to the kitchen with the glasses on his hands and a wide smile on his face, everything was going as he expected, he tried to control his excitement and walked to the sink, he filled both glasses and left them in the counter, grabbed the bottle with the shrinking formula from his secret hide spot, opened it and used the dropper to put ten drops of formula in Dee’s water.
He grabbed it with his right hand and grabbed his own with the left one, walking back to the dining room “I’m back” he said smiling, making sure to leave the right drink in front of Dee before sitting back on his place.
After dinner, and making sure Dorian finished his water, Patton knew there was only a matter of time before the shrinking process started, he stood up and offered his hand to his boyfriend, knowing they were going to cuddle and watch a movie like every date on Dorian’s house.
Dee grabbed it and almos instantly lost balance and fell in Patton’s arms “B-Babe are you okay?” He asked, trying to sound worried, he knew the formula acted different on each person, Both Virgil and Roman had different reactions to it, and he didn’t know what to expect with Dee, he walked to the couch dragging Dorian with him, letting him lean on it.
“I-I don’t know, I just... felt dizzy all of sudden” Dorian said grabbing the couch behind him.
“Do you need something? I can bring you another cup of water or-“
“No no” interrupted Dorian “I’m fine... I-I just need to lay down for a... f-for a bit” he said, before fainting on the couch.
Patton let go of his hand and sat at the side of the couch, he stroked his boyfriend’s hair as he felt how his head became smaller each second “Don’t worry, this will be over soon”
Dorian kept shrinking until he was only a couple of inches tall, Patton scooped up his shrunken boyfriend’s unconscious body and leaned him on his chest “You’re mine now, all mine”
