Note: I do not own APH in any way possible. I've finally completed chapter 2. I hope it turned out well. Honestly, I only have a slightly vague idea on how to continue from here =.= Wish me luck and please R&R
Little ramblings about my exam(I couldn't help but write this): I'm pretty much going to do badly because of careless mistakes, especially MT

"F-Feliciano?" Antonio squinted his eyes. Why in the world would Feliciano be there? He had a room with Ludwig and they probably can't ever act the same ever again even if they were still friends.
He gulped down some water and rubbed his eyes, taking a closer look. The person sleeping peacefully in the bed had a darker shade of brown hair compared to Feliciano and the hair curl seemed to be on the opposite side. He looked like Feliciano and Antonio felt that he had seen him somewhere before…
He was bending by the edge of the bed, observing the sleeping figure. Was his eyesight playing tricks on him? He wasn't so sure anymore.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
Lovino stirred in his sleep. He heard the door closing and heard his brother's name but the voice who said it sounded familiar. He had been asleep for roughly half an hour. He could have continued to sleep but he decided to see who his new roommate was and possibly unpack before dinner.
He opened his eyes and jumped up. Staring straight at him was a pair of green eyes. And it was unmistakably that Antonio guy who helped him earlier that day. Was he dreaming?
"Why the hell are you here?!" He spluttered out.
"But, I live here; you must be my new roommate!" Now that he took a closer look, Antonio looked like he had been drinking and his breath smelt like it too.
"You mean, you actually school here, you idiot?!"
"Mind your language and yes, I'm in the second year in the university section… have we met before?"
Lovino frowned. He felt quite stupid for remembering him when the other did not. He refused to look at Antonio and his eyes wondered off to Antonio's messy desk and sitting on top of the load of papers was his favourite green hat!
"My hat!" He jumped out of the bed and grabbed his hat, placing it on his head just to make sure it was truly his hat.
"Oh! You're the guy that said you didn't need any help!" Antonio recalled.
Lovino flushed with slight anger, that wasn't exactly how he thought he would be remembered from.
"And you really do look like a tomato!"
Lovino proceeded to grabbing his pillow and throwing it at the Spaniard's face, he was smart enough not to throw his hat again. Antonio laughed as the pillow fell onto his lap.
Lovino delicately placed his green hat on the bed and crossed his arms.
"Can we freaking divide the space here?"
Antonio stopped laughing and looks at the figure looming over him. The face really looked similar to Feliciano yet the character was a whole different story.
"Hey, are you related to Feliciano Vargas?"
Lovino shot him a glare, "so what if I am?"
"Well, I was just wondering. I mean personality wise Feliciano seemed more bubbly and nice but looks wise…" Antonio shrugged.
"Chigii! You're just trying to say how much better my brother is aren't you?"
"Oh, so you're brothers? And I'm not comparing… Argh!" Lovino had head butted Antonio, eyes flashing in anger. That was the sole reason why he didn't want to go to the same school as his bubbly brother. People kept on comparing them. If it wasn't their art score it would be their personality.
Antonio recovered from shock and looked down. Lovino was right in front of him throwing light punches, cheeks red with anger and a pout.
"You really look like a tomato," Lovino threw a slightly harder punch and Antonio winced. He reached out a hand and managed to grab one of the ripe tomatoes on his bed.
"Okay, okay, I'm sorry," he offered the tomato to Lovino as an apology gift. Lovino's face instantly lit up.
"You like tomatoes?" Antonio asked curiously as Lovino snatched the tomato from his hand and began munching on it.
"Like them? I love them!" Lovino ate the rest of the tomato in an instant. It was as delicious as it looked.
"That's great! I love them too," Antonio smiled as he stood up. "You can have the right side of the wardrobe. Its siesta time for me. Could you wake me up later for dinner?"
Lovino thought for a while. It was troublesome but…
"Sure if you give me the other tomato."
Antonio sighed a little but of course he relented. He picked up his last ripe tomato and gave it to Lovino before plopping on top of his messy bed and falling asleep.
For the first time that day, Lovino smiled as he ate the juicy tomato and began unpacking. Although Antonio's side of the room was messy, the wardrobe was really neat. Clean clothes hung on the left side of it and the neatly folded clothes at the bottom. The right side was completely untouched, like his side of the room when he came.
It was as if Antonio had only been living in half the room despite having the whole room to himself until Lovino came. Lovino started off by unpacking his clothes. He then placed his books on his desk and so forth. He might be rude and all but he was rather considerate, unpacking with the least amount of noise possible as Antonio slept.
After he was done, Lovino had nothing to do and there was still around ten minutes to six. He sat on his bed and observed the sleeping Antonio. He looked like he was having some kind of dream. His chest rose and fell irregularly, was he having a nightmare?
Lovino crept up to him, contemplating whether he should wake him up. He came closer to him, finally deciding to wake him up when suddenly, Antonio moved. Antonio had lunged forward, embracing the surprised Lovino.
"Why… why did you leave…? Feliciano…" Antonio mumbled in his sleep.
Lovino flared up. It was always his brother this, his brother that. Despite being miles away from home, he just had to have a roommate who from the words he said, was probably Feliciano's ex! Even though he was a smiling bastard who gave him tomatoes, he just had to be into Feliciano!
Lovino pushed him away and shook him vigorously.
"Wake up bastard and snap out of it!" He then threw a hard punch to Antonio's stomach. His eyes immediately snapped open and he groaned in pain.
"Is it… time for dinner?" He asked weakly.
"In five minutes, yes!" Lovino realised he had one feet on the ground, his other knee was on the bed. He quickly got back on two feet and headed for the door. "Are you going or what?"
"Of course!" Antonio leapt out of the bed, wobbling a bit due to a slight hangover. He had no idea why Lovino had to hit him to wake him up though.
"Bastard, you're having a hangover aren't you?" Lovino commented, his way of saying 'are you okay?'
"Yeah… I suppose so," Antonio grinned.
Lovino sighed and help Antonio, shocking him.
"This is pay back for helping me when I didn't need help, now we're equal," Lovino quickly said before Antonio could say anything. And with that, they both went down to the cafeteria.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
"Ve~ Ludwig, it's time for dinner! I heard there's pasta today!"
"Feliciano, there's pasta EVERYday…" Ludwig followed the bouncing Feliciano out of they're room.
"Oh! And I can introduce Lovino to you!"
Ludwig flinched, hoping that if this Lovino was the older twin, maybe he'd be more mature or something. He spotted Roderich walking towards the cafeteria alone.
"Roderich, what happened to Gilbert?" Usually, Roderich's roommate who was Ludwig's brother, Gilbert, would be pestering him all the way to the cafeteria.
"Terrible hangover. Tell your brother never to go drinking in midday and taking a nap after that," Roderich replied and headed down.
"Ve~ Ludwig! There's my brother Lovino coming down the stairs! LOVI~"
Ludwig swung around to see a man who looked like Feliciano except with slightly darker hair and the curl was facing another direction and he was supporting a slightly wobbly Antonio.
"Ve~ your new roommate's Antonio? Isn't that great?" Feliciano flung himself onto Lovino. Antonio smiled, though rather forcefully. Feliciano seemed to have completely forgotten about the past three years they'd been together.
"Chigii! Get your freaking self off me and don't you dare call me that again!"
Ludwig was taken aback. That was definitely not a duplicate of Feliciano but a totally different person!
"Ve~ anyway, this is Ludwig, my roommate and this is Lovino Vargas, my older twin brother."
"Oh, so you're twin brothers eh?" Antonio spoke for the first time. That would explain a lot and that means that Lovino was going to be a first year in the university section.
"Eh? You didn't tell Antonio that?" Feliciano looked a bit disappointed, Lovino simply grumbled.
"Ve~ Are you okay, Antonio?" Feliciano shifted his attention to Antonio who was still being slightly supported by Lovino.
"Had a little drink," Antonio smiled again, skilfully masking what he truly felt.
"Don't tell me you've been drinking with Gilbert and Francis again," Ludwig frowned. Antonio could only smile apologetically.
"Can we go to the cafeteria now?" Lovino impatiently tapped his foot on the ground. With that, Feliciano was more than happy to drag all of them to the cafeteria.
-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-
Lovino spotted the two known as Alfred and Arthur sitting at a table. Alfred had one red cheek and seemed to be still trying to get Arthur to drink coffee. Arthur was obviously rejecting that though his cheeks were tinted red when the American came too close.
They ate dinner in peace, Feliciano going on about how great pasta was, Ludwig simply nodded his head and Lovino saw Antonio glancing at Feliciano many times, what exactly were they're relationship, he didn't really know.
"You two can go back first, I want to talk with Lovino~" Feliciano said after they had done eating. Ludwig excused himself and left, Antonio somewhat reluctantly left too.
"Ve~ so how do you like this dorm?"
"It's… fine," Lovino mumbled, this was a good opportunity to ask Feliciano some questions. "Say Feliciano, what relationship do you have with that smiling bastard?"
"You mean Antonio? Well, we were in a relationship for the past three years or so but we just broke up."
Lovino stared in disbelief. Firstly, three years was a long time, secondly, Feliciano didn't exactly act like they just broke up and thirdly, he has a weird feeling in his chest.
"Why the hell did you break up?" He asked, trying to sound casual.
"Ve~ because he was too into tomatoes rather than pasta," Feliciano said matter-of-factly. That was to be expected of Feliciano for breaking up for that reason.
Somehow, the feeling Lovino felt seemed to have grown. Was this relief that he felt…?
