Of Needle and Cloth
Sum.: Who could blame Roderich for being confused when his old "frenemy," Vash, asks if he will, along with Elizaveta's help, fix a tear in Lilli's only dress. But what's this feeling? Is dear, stick-in-the-mud Roddy jealous of all the attention Lilli is getting from Vash?
Genre: Romance/Family
Pairings: RoVa
A/N: Dedicated (and for) darling Vash (and PJB!) Because if you hadn't asked me to write it, I wouldn't have. (And your fic was what got me to like this pairing.)
Chapter 1
Third POV/ELIZAVETA
Elizaveta nearly jumped out of her spot on the couch when the loud (and obnoxious) ringing began.
She had been, rather peacefully, reading a charming yaoi, loaned to her by her dear friend Kiku.
But it was rather hardcore.
Which explained the bloody tissues that litterred the floor.
She glared angrily at the phone as it continued to call for attention.
She heard a certain perfectionist stumble over a few notes from a song that she had heard way too many times.
So of course she noticed his mistake.
Better answer it before Roddy gets too tripped up...
...
Although that would be fun to see--
Elizaveta shook the thought out of her head. She could practically feel the emergency aura that ammitted from the phone.
She made the mistak to hold the phone to her ear.
"Hello--"
"ELIZAVETA!!! Help me!!!" Vash nearly screamed in her ear.
She moved the phone away from her face as her eyes widened. "Vash? What's wro--"
She then heard Lilli's wails in the background, and her face grew a look of shock. Lilli rarely to never cried. And Elizaveta knew no one who had witnessed it...
..Which explained why Vash was so panicked.
Vash mumbled an apology to Elizaveta, set the phone down, and attempted to comfort Lilli as she continued to bawl.
As the loud shrieks subsided to more quiet whimpers, Vash picked up the landline again. "Do you want the long or short version?" he said tiredly.
"Sh-short...?" Elizaveta was now, officially, confused.
"Lilli has been feeling really bad about herself all weak, and her dress is the only clean thing she has. I want you to show her that her dress, which she teared--I mean--!!" Lilli's wails at started up again at that. Vash sighed. "In which have a simple, easily fixable tear in them."
"Oh."
"And, um...can you get--Roddy to help, too?" Elizaveta noticed the slight hesitation before Roderich's name.
That was when she had a lightbulb moment.
Did Vash love her ex-husband?
Hungary had a huge grin on her face.
Yaoi...~
