Ever since Lovino mysteriously almost tripped down stairs Alfred had began to act strangely around him. Usually Al just talked Romano's head off until the Italian managed to distract him with something cool or shinny. But He was getting really attentive lately.

He opened the door for Lovino , even if it meant knocking down whoever was in front of Lovino at the time. This got very awkward since America got in Germany's way with this many times.

Of course Felicano mentioning that Romano may or may not be suicidal had nothing to do with it. Of course not.

Felicano couldn't keep himself from indulging in a little evil giggle fit. This was working out splendidly. America would be sure to keep Romano busy and Germany would get fed up with the younger nation.

It almost worked, Until America had to blab.

"Alfred..." Ludwig growled after picking himself up and dusting the dirt off his nice suit, "Is there a REASON for you constantly being around here?" he asked.
Lovino was sitting on a loveseat , occupying all of it in an effort to keep America away from him. He adored the guy but Alfred's personality got old fast. What seemed sweet and endearing now seemed irritating and down right stupid.

Anyway , America had been making some pasta for them when Germany questioned him.
"Ah...Your really dense ,Germany." He said with a laugh,"Romano was trying to kill himself by jumping down the stairs!"
"...WHAT?" Germany asked looking incredulous.
"Yeah...Felicano said-"
"Oh."
"? " America looked up from his pot to see Germany making his way outside.

(Oh America i love you.)

that should be chapter 2...sorry about that.
You should know this already but Romano=Lovi=Lovino , Ludwig=Germany , Felicano=Italy , Alfred=Al=America -
Romano looked up from his 'nap' at Germany. He looked really mad.
He wondered if America had said something.
Then America looked up in time to see a glare from Romano.
"Oh sorry Lovi , Your really hungry right? " He chirped with a sweet smile. He walked over to the cabinet , got some Italian bread and cut off enough to make a sandwich.
Lovino started to say he wasn't but his stomach claimed otherwise.
Alfred came over and held out a plate with a grilled tomato and salami sandwich.
Lovino was surprised that it tasted so good considering. He'd been to McDonalds before. He already forgot the rant he'd given Alfred 2 years ago about Spices and their proper uses.
"Hey Lovi."
Lovino looked up and gaped when he saw America leaning on the sofa's arm and holding his hand. "I just want you to know that people Love you. So don't go killing yourself or anything OK?"
"...what?"
"Like what you did last week."
"Uhnnn, No I Tripped last week."
"Huh? But Feli said-"
"Oh..."
Romano was scowling again , Alfred decided to return to his pasta quickly.
Lovino got up using his crutches to go check on Germany.

When he walked in Ludwig was yelling at Felciano about something.
"You can't just lie to America like that! He's the kind of idiot who would BELIEVE you!"

'So he was more worried about America than me',Romano thought with a bitter sigh. He missed the rest of the conversation as he returned to the living room and the sandwich.

"Why Do you want me and Romano to be enemies again?"
"...because You seem to like him more than me now."

"See! You met me FIRST! But then Lovino came in with his sad sad face and you fell for him. "
Germany didn't say anything , He was thinking it all over.
He used to grimmace everytime he saw Romano. This was because Romano always started on him as soon as He saw Ludwig. It was always something stupid like how he ate potateos or how Germany was more muscular than Him.
It was just a minor annoyance.
Then Felicano got upset that they didn't get along. And Because They both adored him , Romano and Germany became more friendly with each other.
Wasn't that what Felicano wanted? Peace. Didn't he always want peace?

Germany was suddenly snapped out of his thoughts when Italy ran into him as he was retreating. Ludwig chased after him and then grabbed Italy into a kiss. HE didn't see that they were in the living room now , but Italy did. He noticed Romano watching and made sure that he kept watching.

America was the first to speak. "Ugh...It's like France and England all over again" He looked very angry suddenly, Only Romano knew that Alfred still loved Arthur very much and wanted to be seen as a man by him.

stupid character limit.

Germany suddenly realized he had an Audience and stopped it. He cleared his throat awkwardly and turned to say something to Romano , only to see a empty love seat.
The door to the garden was open and He could just barely see Romano outside pulling out weeds.
America sighed and looked at Germany like he was an idiot before turning to Felicano. "Can you finish the pasta?"
It wasn't really a question , Alfred rushed outside before Felicano said anything.

"I'm sure he'll come around eventually..."
Lovino looked up to see Al sat down and offer his hand. With his help the two sat down and began tending to the tomatoes.
"You think so?" Lovino asked as he ripped out a dandelion.
"...That's what I keep assuring myself."
Lovino made a lopsided smile at the strawberry blond nation. IT was hard for both of them , seeing their loved one with someone else.
"If it makes you feel better I like you more than France. "
"Thanks... but I still like Francis. He's like my pervy older brother, he has good taste in porn."
"...Reminds me of Antonio."
"Well they are Bros."

Germany went to the door and watched. He wondered why seeing them together made him mad all of a sudden. Especially when Lovino rested his head on Alfred's shoulder and let out a frustrated sigh.

The whole thing made Felicano angry.
Why was Germany STILL looking at Romano? Didn't he just prove he loved ME?

It wasn't exactly Felicano's fault he had become somewhat of a attention whore in his adult life. He was just used to everyone paying attention to him and ignoring Romano. He wasn't proud of it , but he expected it to stay like that.
But now, Germany had seen the sweet lonely kid Romano was deep down and he felt compelled to not ignore him.
Italy didn't care that America ignored him, He wasn't the guy Italy was in love with.
He didn't even care that Spain had stopped cooing over everything he did. Spain was slightly annoying with his affections.
But Germany, Germany was the first guy who it took Efforts for him to love Felicano. That made him special.
And he was not giving up...this special someone for anyone.
