Her eyes twinkled in mirth as a giggle escaped the confines of her throat as she almost taunted him with the gentle sway of her hips as she danced back.

Lovino's eyes never left her full frame as she did so.

He finally stepped forward seizing her hands and finally she was pressed against his frame as they adjusted to dance together like they'd promised.

She smiled as if it were a breath of fresh air to finally dance with her brother.

"Why must you tease me so much?" Lovino demanded in an almost gentle voice.

"I saw you with Antonio. It made me jealous; you should only dance with me that way." She answered in a softer voice to avoid eavesdroppers.

"He's just a childhood friend, and all men are bastards, and I am not attracted to any bastards." Lovino grumbled.

Felicia giggled, "That's good, because I'm never giving you up."

"I'd never ask you to." Lovino grumbled to her.

"Grazie, I don't think that I ever could share you." Felicia grinned and sent a wink her brother's way.

They may hide their relationship from the world though they can cherish it and spend this time teetering between siblings or friends and lovers.

Always there was a middle ground to guard and protect their romantic relationship while around others, and obvious signs of romantic love can be masked behind their already given relationship.
