Once upon a time, in a land far away, lived a small boy named Lovino Vargas. He lived with his family of four. A mother, a father, himself, and a younger brother. He lived happily for the first 10 years of his life. That is until a bastard moved in next door. Said bastard had three sons, two were his own, and one was adopted. The bastard was German, he had long blond hair and stern blue eyes, his youngest son looked almost exactly like him, save for the length of his hair. The eldest son was extremely pale, with piercing red eyes, and a laugh that could annoy anyone. The middle child, so to say, was very tan with chocolate brown hair, and beautiful emerald eyes.
Lovino sat in his bedroom staring out of his window watching as the neighbor boys played out in the fields. His brother, Feliciano, and the youngest boy, Lud-something-or-other, were sitting under the apple tree and laughing at the eldest, Gilbert. As Lovino watched, he didn't notice the middle child, Antonio, staring at him. Intensely.
"Hey Lovino!" Gilbert called to the Eldest Vargas. "Get that stick out of your ass and come down to play with us! Kesesesesese~!"
Lovino rolled his eyes and glared down at the boy, who was only a year older then himself. "I'd rather sit up here and plan your demise, Gilbert."
"Aw come on Lovino, don't make Toni here stare at you with googly eyes from afar!" Gilbert smirked at his brother.
"Shut up Gil!" Antonio whined and hid his face in his hands. Ever since Antonio had moved to the far land, he had had a huge crush on Lovino. It was obvious to everyone, except Lovino.
"No, the kid needs to come down and fall for my baby brother!" Gilbert announce heroically.
"I'm only a year younger then you!" Antonio pouted.
Lovino watched the neighbor boy in awe, did he like Lovino back? Wow. That was a first. Normally kids he liked hated him and called him names, like fag. Maybe Lovino could go down, just for a moment. Lovino smiled to himself and traveled down the stairs, through the door, and out to the field where the two brothers were bickering.
"Hey, Antonio look! Your 'one true love' came down from his tower!" Feliciano giggled, squeezing Ludwig's hand lightly.
"What?" Lovino blushed darkly and glared at his brother.
"Oh come off it you gits." An annoying voice giggled. "Antonio has been in love with Lovino for six months." Arthur smiled, he was also a neighbor, he and his love, Francis, were the towns sweethearts. They were practically fighting all the time, but then out of the blue they would just start making out, like normal 17 year olds…?
"Mon petite lapin is right." Francis cooed and lightly trailed kisses down Arthur's neck. "S-stop it!" Arthur laughed quietly. Francis obeyed and whispered a quiet, "I love you." To which Arthur blushed darkly and responded with a, "I love you too."
Gilbert made a gagging noise and glared at his cousin, Arthur. "Jesus Artie, can't you leave the coolest adult alone. You made him all in love and shit!" Gil whined. "He was my friend first!"
"He was my first." Francis winked. "Shut up!" everyone else groaned.
"Anyway!" Gilbert turned back to Antonio, who was currently dying of embarrassment. "Antonio, kiss Lovino." He ordered.
"No!" Antonio blushed. "He will hate me!"
"He is standing right here…" Lovino mumble under his breath. "And he wouldn't hate you…"
Everyone paused and turned to the blushing Italian boy, who usually hated everyone and everything.
"What?" Antonio lifted his head to meet Lovino's gaze. "I said, I wouldn't mind…" Lovino whispered.
Antonio smiled widely, throwing reason out the window, and forgetting that he was surrounded by family and friends, he took a step forward and kissed Lovino sweetly on the lips.
Everyone awed and walked back to their own houses, considering how late it was, leaving the two boys alone in the field. "Hey Lovi?" Antonio whispered, smiling kindly.
"Yes bastard?" Lovino smiled back.
"I love you. And I don't want to love anyone else. Just you." The ten year old boy announced proudly.
"How long have you… uh, felt this way?" Lovino asked quietly.
Antonio grabbed Lovino's hand gently and kissed his cheek. "Since I first saw you."
"You're so sappy." Lovino smiled and kissed Antonio's lips. "I love you too."
Soon the boy and his love grew up, one day, on Lovino's 17th birthday, Antonio pulled Lovino out to the field where they shared their first kiss. "Lovino, my love." Antonio gulped and looked at the ground. "I am truly sorry…"
"Get on with it." Lovino teased and kissed Antonio's cheek tenderly, he and Antonio had been 'Dating' for 7 years now.
"I have to leave you." Antonio choked out.
Lovino's face fell. "What do you mean?" he whispered, his eyes filling with tears.
"Lovino, I love you with all my heart, but my biological father came to visit last week. He wants me to join him in the family business!" Antonio smiled, but his eyes were also filled with tears. He didn't want to leave Lovino, he wanted to marry Lovino, and be Lovino's first. But he had to leave. "And I want you to wait for me."
Lovino nodded, letting a few tear stroll down his cheek. "Y-yes."
"I will be back in two months. Then we will get married. Ok?" Antonio kissed Lovino's cheek and wiped Lovino's tears. "I love you."
"I l-love y-you too!" Lovino cried out, wrapping his arms around Antonio's neck.
And so, the next day, Antonio left Lovino. Two months went by, but Antonio was never heard from again. Lovino cried every night for six months. Lovino missed his love. He missed Antonio so dearly, that on o his Twentieth birthday he set out to find him, he set out for the adventure of his life.
