With You By My Side

The black car pulled up outside the two-story house just as the clock struck midnight. Rain was falling quietly to the ground setting the scene just right. A tall blond got out of the passenger seat as his brother kept the engine running for a quick get away. Ludwig walked to the window and picked up a pebble and tossed it. The click seemed to echo in the silent night.

"Hurry up," Gilbert hissed.

"Hold on." He tried again and this time a light flicked on and a small Italian opened the window looking down and smiling brightly.

"Lace up your shoes princess we're getting out of here," Ludwig called to him.

The two lovers stared at one another from that small distance and a promise between them could be heard from the past. A small Ludwig kissing the cheek of a teary eyed brunette.

"One day I'll get us out of here. You just have to wait a little while Feliciano and then we can be together always."

So many people for being together had criticized them but none of them mattered so long as they could be together. Ludwig had moved to a different city when they were young but still they held that promise. One day they would run away together and that day was now.

The small Italian turned from the window and grabbed his shoes pulling them on and then packed a small bag. He tossed it out first and the blond caught it tossing it into the trunk as Gilbert laughed. He was happy for his baby brother. Feliciano looked out at him grinning and then looked back into his room.

"Don't look back Feli. You and me baby, forever we'll be."

He needed no more prompting and climbed out the window. When he was close enough he jumped down and into the arms of his lover.

"Ti amo!" he cheered kissing his strong blond as they hurried to the car.

As the car drove off a pair of green eyes watched silently from their own bedroom. Lovino smiled as he waved to the retreating car.

"Run fratello and never look back or they'll tear you apart." He turned away from his window and crawled into his bed. "Told you he would come dummy," Lovino whispered to the empty room smiling.
