THE BUCKET LIST, HOW TO GET NOTICED.
(...)
Kiku stared in shock as me as I turned around with a proud smirk. "Look at you!" He gasped quietly and patted my arm. "Getting the damsel in distressed, you go man!" He huffed and I laughed rolling my eyes. I started copying the problem on the board and Kiku leaned in. "Show me the Bible." He whispered in my ear and I looked up at him like he was insane. "That list you made! It's a Bible, how could someone like my buddy Ludwig finally talk to his crush! It must be awesome!" He went on and I lowered my head, covering my laughter.
"Alright, I'll show you it, but it's nothing special." I protested with a grin. "Mr. Beilschmidt and Mr. Honda, eyes up front!" Mr. Eldstien shouted and both boys looked back quickly like dogs and they looked terrified. "That's more like it, now let's talk about this!" He slammed his hand on the board where an impossible problem was written. I swore I heard Feliciano swear again

I brought Kiku up to my room and he made himself at home on the beanbags with a content smile. "Now where is the bible?" Kiku asked and I pointed at the paper in the mirror. "You're joking?" Kiku asked and I shook my head. "Nope, my friend this is the list. I told you it was nothing special." I protested and he laughed walking forward and staring the paper down. "Number 3, work out." He said and I blushed and looked down at my hands. "Ludwig, don't tell me you never lift weights?! You already look like a fitness trainer!" Kiku barked and I shrugged with a shy smile. "You really are a total loser, how about we fix today!" Kiku assured taking the same dark blue white board marker and crossed off the 2 and 3.
"My brother has some work out equipment in his room in the basement." I offered and Kiku nodded pulling me along downstairs. When did Kiku become so helpful? We walked into the kitchen finding my mother working on the computer and she looked over with a content smile. "Hi boys, where you guys off to?" She questioned and I turned bright red looking down. "Mrs. Belischmidt, your son has been trying to make himself more approachable." Kiku said pleasantly, he always did this around adults, he turned into this content dick. Thanks Kiku.
"Oh is that so?" She giggled and I came behind her and furrowed my eyebrows at the dating website pulled up on her computer. "Mom? Why are you on a dating website?" I asked and she looked up with a powerful smile. "I have started looking for another man, it is rather lonely without a man of the house that isn't Gilbert." She assured her son patting his bulky shoulder. "But Mom, that's Christian Mingle, we aren't Christian!" I protested and my Mom laughed loudly, evilly if I had to add an adjective.
"That makes me unique on the website! The boys dig unique!" She yelled happily and I just gulped. She was trying to be a cool mom, no way mom. Don't be a cool mom. BAD IDEA, MOM! "Er...I'm just going to go downstairs." I stuttered backing away and downstairs to my brother's room. Me and Kiku saw what we always saw in my brother's room. His messy ass room with clothing screwed everywhere, bed unmade, a table was over turned, and my brother was sitting closely to Francis as was Antonio as they held up pictures from a Porn magazine and Francis was intently staring at the wall.
"Is that a picture of Arthur Kirkland in his birthday suit?" I ask standing behind them. "Mmhmm." Gilbert murmured shaking the picture lightly of a girl in her own birthday suit and Antonio was holding a picture of some guy in his underpants. "Why do you have a picture of Arthur Kirkland in his birthday suit." I deadpanned and Antonio laughed brightly, again, adding the adjective evilly. Plus I hated Antonio's guts.
"We are training Francis for his date~" Antonio smiled dumbly and Gilbert snickered. "This isn't funny, my eyes are on Arthur." Francis yelled as I watched his eyes narrow. "Look at me, I just want Francisco Bonnefoy~" Gilbert impersonated, terribly may I add, a horny girl and I watched Francis's head try to leer to right until he caught himself and kept staring at Arthur's junk. "Ok... Awkward..." Kiku whispered backing up.
"Alright, nevermind, I am just going to use the work out equipment in the back." I sighed walking towards something I called in gym once, 'The shitty machine.' Which was a pull up and pull back thing that works your abs and stuff. Ok confession time, I didn't think this one through.
"Why the hell are you working out?" Gilbert asked looking over. My throat closed as I looked over with a state of panic. I was working out for Feliciano, but how could I say that when his [cheating] boyfriend was in the room? I decided to ignore Gilbert and sit down and started pulling on the rower frantically. "Feliciano-san is coming over to study for Chemistry, but probably him and Ludwig will be studying each others chemistry." Kiku said pleasantly again, I was going to strangle him. MY, MY, MY FUCKING GOD, WHO DO WE HAVE HERE, A DIIIIIICK I SEE!
Antonio looked up with pursed lips and we had a stare off. "That's my boyfriend, Beilschmidt." Antonio deadpanned, his face growing cold. "But aren't you cheating on him with Lovino his older twin brother?" Kiku smiled contently. OK I TAKE THAT BACK, I LOVE YOU SO MUCH KIKU, NO HOMO. "Oh that's right, Mi Tomate." Antonio purred and he started dazing off, a line of drool slipping from his mouth as Francis and Gilbert watched him.
Francis snapped in the brain-dead Spaniard's face and Antonio didn't even blink. "Oh great, you broke him." Gilbert sneered laughing loudly as he slapped Antonio's cheek trying to get him out of this stupid comatose state. "YES, I'LL BE YOUR PIRATE, BABE!" Antonio shouted going out of his daze. "Not going to ask..." Gilbert murmured turning back around as I kept frantically pulling on the rolling machine.
"You're going to start a fire if you don't slow down." Kiku yelled trying to stop me. "Fire like my mixtape?" Gilbert asked and his friends busted into laughter. "Someone kill me today. Please, dear God." I whispered to myself and Kiku just stared back at Gilbert with a look of no fucks given. "Hey man, good luck with my Feliciano, he's such a kitten~" Antonio purred walking past us and I glared harshly as I kept frantically doing the row machine. I should really stop, but this is a good thing for stress. DID I JUST PICK UP ANOTHER BAD HABIT! GOD DAMNIT LUDWIG, FIRST IT WAS CLEANING NOW IT'S WORKING OUT! MAYBE IT WILL BE WEED NEXT, I DOOOOOOOON'T KNOW!

I was silently putting books into my backpack when Feliciano scared the living crap out of me by jumping on my back and giggling in my ear. This moment would be cuter if we were dating, but I would never score Feliciano. Even if I did, I would let Lovino punch me in the nuts. MARK MY WORD.
"Hey Feliciano." I stuttered standing up letting him slip from my back and he looked up from me from the floor with his huge smile. "What's got you so happy?" I asked laughing, helping him up and he smiled walking [skipping] beside me as we made our way out the door. He was finally coming to my house to study Chemistry, and I was excited and scared. I may of scrubbed my floors to 12 AM, but that was cut out of my story so you didn't think I was complete nerd. Wait...
"So where's your car? I purposely had Fratello drive me to school~" He giggled latching onto my arm as I escorted him to my run down truck and Feliciano's eyes lite up at the sight of the car. "Is this a 1964 Chevrolet Apache C10 Pickup Truck?" He asked loudly his hand rubbing the cyan blue paint of the truck. Antonio's comment about Feliciano being brain dead made me want to slap him with the facts.
"Er, yes it is!" I smiled patting the old truck's hood and he smiled widely. "My Nonno owned a car shop in Italy, this was his favorite kind of car!" Feliciano still had his stupid [adorable] smile on his face as it slowly turned to a fond one. "That's nice, this was my dad car, but he sorta left and my mom is looking for guys on a Christian dating website, and were Atheist, so she's getting desperate." I said in a mouthful and Feliciano looked up with his huge smile and laughed.
This kid was like wurst. I love wursts.
