It was the little things that gripped them the hardest.
Gilbert wondered when it became plausible and emotionally charged enough for them to do it anywhere despite how clean they both tried to be.
He perhaps wondered what had made them set their pride aside to kiss each other so affectionately even in public.
The Prussian loved the meals that they both cooked, and he loved the way his hand fit in Ludwig's.
There was something magical about the air as they leaned in and kissed each other like their lives depended on it.
Gil loved him, and it crossed the human and national boundaries that love rarely crossed.
All he wanted was Ludwig, and he could see those same emotions reflected in his lover's eyes.
He loved him so much and knew that that made every little thing even more important than before.
The little things were truly important and brought them closer and closer.
He even adored the nervous way that Ludwig wore an apron when he cooked to stay clean, just in case.
Gilbert loved the gift from Ludwig of a matching apron for him.
It made it cuter in Gilbert's opinion for when they cooked together, and Gil loved the way that they rubbed against each other while they cooked, because they both could not fit in that little kitchen without at least brushing arms.
He loved the way that his skin stood out pleasantly by Ludwig and loved their differences such as eye color and their personalities in general that brought them closer and closer.
They were little things that reminded them of how different they were and how they got along so well and how they were truly individuals though it also reminded Gil of how they had become each other's other half.
They meant the world to each other and completed the other in a way that was so simply perfect that no one could ever deny such a beautiful connection.
Gilbert figured that nations were not as related as others considered them to be, and so could maintain this relationship with Ludwig and ignored cries of incest.
Even if they were fully related, they loved each other as lovers do as well.
He smiled; the little things made things much more important and beautiful anyway.
