Romano and Antonio were married in late December. It was an excellent time, the wedding was glorious, stunning, and Feliciano smiled as he straightened his brother's tie and fluffed the flower thingy in his breast pocket and his patted his suit until his brother batted his hands away with a, "Cut it out."
Feliciano laughed light-hearted even though he was crying on the inside, his older brother was getting married in a just a few minutes right after he walked through the chapel's doors and said his vows. Then Feliciano would be all alone, being the only actual bachelor in his and Romano's friend group. Feliciano knew he didn't want to be single for his whole life, but he was already 20 years old and had been alone for all those years. Literally his entire life. Romano always told him not to worry about it, that it didn't really matter if he was single or not.
But even so, Feliciano still felt that pang of jealousy when Romano came home that day three years earlier with the ring on his hand, and it was a pretty one at that, gloriously designed, with diamonds mixed in with the gold, a real beauty like his brother. He thought and Antonio, he deserved his brother, and the ring was worthy of him. Therefore Antonio was happily accepted into the Vargas family.
"Are you nervous, Roma?" Feliciano asked massaging his brother's shoulders.
"Stop it," Romano said softly.
"Stop what?" Feliciano asked innocently.
Romano frowns, "You're crying."
Feliciano shakes his head, "I'm not."
"You are, idoita." Romano said wiping his brother's eyes, "See? And of course I'm nervous, but if you start crying th-then, I'll st-start crying." Romano said starting to sniffle.
"I'm sorry!" Feliciano cried.
"It's okay." Romano pats him on the head.
"I miss Grandpa... I wish he were here to see you… He'd like that." Feliciano sniffled.
Their Grandfather had died a three years ago after a long sickness and left Romano with the house, a debt he had finally managed to pay off, and an old cat.
Romano nodded, "I miss him too." He sighed and then heard the wedding beginning to start, "Great. I'm late to my own wedding."
Romano sighed and hands Feliciano a tissue.
Then Romano walked over to the door and back at his brother, "Are you coming?" He asks with a gentle smile.
Feliciano wipes his eyes, "Yeah!"
He throws the tissue away and follows his brother. Feliciano takes Romano's hand, and they both smile as they walked to the door of the wedding hall.
Feliciano released Romano's hand to go stand at the altar as he was Romano's best man, leaving Romano to walk down the aisle alone. Romano was suddenly aware of all the eyes on him as he walked step after step, slowly. He regretted the decision to invite their whole family to their wedding, but he made it up to the altar eventually, said the vows and kissed his new husband, Antonio. And officially became Romano Carriedo-Vargas after three years of waiting. Feliciano gave Romano and wink and a thumbs up which Romano just smirked at.
Now three years later, Romano was all grown up, debt-free, and smiling, Feliciano thought, as Romano ruffled his hair laughing. Feliciano smiled he thought of the painting that he had painted for their wedding gift, it was a painting of Daffodils Felicanio's favorite flower. He loved them, they were they pretty and symbolized new beginnings and . which was perfect for this critical step Romano was taking. This new beginning if you will. Also, Feliciano had sent him a painting of a stylized lily last year.
They thought as they sat at the wedding party.
Feliciano smiled, he was so happy he could be here for his brother's wedding. He was practically skipped into the house. He loved love, so much. Upon arriving home, Felciano went one way, and the newlyweds went the other way. Feliciano put on his headphones and began to work on big art project he had to finish for school along with the commission he had to do. Feliciano came out a few times to get things and refill his water cups, both painting, and drinking as he usually did. Humming to his music. Finally, at 1 AM Feliciano took off his headphones and rolled into bed, he was almost asleep when he heard a loud bang which woke up him up.
"Romano? Are you okay?!" Felciano yells hitting the wall to make even more noise.
A muffled, "Yeah!"
Came from the bedroom across the hall, with an identical knock. It was their secret code from when they were younger. One beat meant they were okay. Knowing Romano was okay, Feliciano could sleep well, and he did. The next morning Feliciano gets up and opens his door to see a pajamaed Romano standing in the middle of the hall, and rubbing his eye.
"Good morning." Romano yawned.
Feliciano just stood there smiling. "Shut up and save it for later." Romano said walking into the bathroom, "Antonio's still asleep and I have to make breakfast."
Feliciano just stood there grinning, "Nice curl, Roma." Feliciano said alluded to Romano's curl which stood up in a heart-shaped, all he got was a door slammed in his face.
Feliciano asked, "Did you sleep well?"
"Shut up!" Romano yelled turning on the shower beginning to drown the conversation, so Feliciano went back to his room and continued on his art. He and Antonio would out to his brother cooking and meeting.
This would become their morning routine until Feliciano returned back to school two weeks later, and even though the method wouldn't be missed, Feliciano would.
New Years was celebrated at Romano's house as it had been for years and years. The whole family gathered, and they spent the evening in good company and spirits with good food, entertainment, and wine, which they toasted on New Years. Feliciano toasted with the rest of the family and made himself a silent New Years resolution. 'This year. I won't be lonely.' He thought as he looked over at Romano and Antonio who were making out in the corner of the room.
'This year, I'll find someone who really loves me- no, someone who'll adore me' he thought, 'just like Antonio.' Feliciano thought as he watched the couple slip out to the bedroom when they thought no one was watching them.
They were loud that night. . .
"You got your art supplies?" Romano asked, the next morning, going down the list of everything Feliciano could possibly need to for his return to college, until Feliciano kissed him on the lips to silence him, Romano blushed. It wasn't weird, they used to do this all the time it was normal.
"Feli... " Romano frowned. Feliciano ended the kiss a minute later with a small smile. "I have everything, Roma." He grinned and began out the door before Romano ran out with his lunch and stopped him, "No you don't idiota... "He said stuffing the lunch bag in Feliciano's backpack.
"Thanks!" Feliciano yelled and continued his walk.
Romano watched and sighed, he was so grown up. An arm wrapped around Romano, "What was that, mi Amor?" Antonio asked sleepily.
"Nothing." Romano said, ruffling his hair, "Feliciano just forgot his lunch, and I saw that he left safely." Romano said with a grin and turned to go back into the house, "Go get in the shower, I have to make breakfast and-" Slam an arm blocked his way.
"You aren't seeing him again until Summer, so I'll let it slide." Romano laughed and pushed Antonio's arm out of the way.
"Let what slide?" Romano frowned.
"The kiss."
Romano froze, "You saw that?" He asked.
"Yeah. I did." Antiono said. "It's just his stupid way of saying goodbye, he says it to everyone." Romano brushed it off and gave Antonio a long kiss,
"Besides," He said breaking it, "I'm yours remember?" He said sassily showing off his ring. Antonio looked a little happier at that and nodded, "Yes, you're all mine." He chirped.
Romano nodded, yours and Feli… he answered in his head, his brother always came first. He took one more glance outside the window before leaving to make breakfast.
Later Feliciano walked down the halls with his friends, Feliks, Tolys, and Raivis.
"So I heard there's a new boy in our school," Tolys said softly.
"Yeah, he's from one the military schools, but is here for some extra schooling before he goes back in," Raivis said.
He always found the information about almost everyone in the school, he was quite connected and brilliant having gotten into the college at only 15. The stress often got to him, but he and his good friend Tolys always worked it out together.
"I heard he's German." Raivis said excitedly, "Maybe if I ask nicely I can work on my German with him." Raivis was studying to be a linguist and always was looking for people to practice with. He knew eight already. Lithuanian, Russian, Estonian, Polish, German, English, Swedish, and of course his native Latvian.
"Oh!" He sounds quite nice!" Feliciano said, crashing into somebody. He looked up at the towering blonde dreamboat.
