Petruccio sat up in bed,his small round face was painted with a great sulking scowl as he coughed, complaining that he really was well enough to attend schooling from his shared tutor.
Ezio had come into his younger brother's room,concerned, never had he seen the younger seem so annoyed. He sat on the bed and touched his brother's shoulder.
"I must say, I've never seen someone so keen to go to school!"
"It's not school I want to go!" He crossed his arms in a huff.
"Then what is it?"
"It's a secret!"
"And you can't trust me to keep it! Oh little fratello, you hurt me so deeply!" Ezio feigned great heart ache with exaggerated gestures,clutching at the from of his vest,the back of his other hand to his forehead and throwing himself back on the bed dramatically.
"Bene! Va Bene Ezzy!…but promise not to tell no one!"
"I promise." He smiled sweetly to his younger brother,ruffling his usually smooth hair.
"Well…my tutor teaches a girl, we usually get taught together, so she has a friend….but I really really like her Ezio! She even giggled when I punched her arm!"
"Dio Mio! I can hear the wedding bells already" he laughed as Petruccio blushed bright. "Well tell me where to find her and I shall tell her that you're home ill, want me to invite her to visit as well?"
"You'd do that!"
"Of course…"
"You're the bestest big brother in all of italia!"
" In all of the world, but don't let Federicco catch you saying that"
