I'm not a racist, I just want to write about it.
Enjoy!
Feliciano's got the day off and he decides to go to the nearby supermarket. He's slowly walking through the park, enjoying the nice weather and watches children playing.
That's when he sees Ludwig with his 'friends'. His heartbeat fastens. They are playing football on the grass. Ludwig's wearing the same bright red shirt he wore yesterday when he left the restaurant and dark pants. He looks stunning playing football, his hair slightly messed. Feliciano stops and hides behind a few trees, he wants to watch him for a while even though he knows it's a little weird to be spying on your colleague.
Ludwig's the most slender build and probably the youngest of them all. One of the others ; a bulky , bald headed guy in his early thirties , grabs Ludwig's shoulders preventing him from scoring a goal. Ludwig struggles but his friend is stronger than him and pushes him to the ground. They all laugh. It all makes sense to Feliciano now ; those guys are his friends, Ludwig's a member of their gang and he's wearing long sleeves at work because he's trying to hide his tattoos. If their boss ever found out he's a racist, he would lose his job. He probably hates Feliciano too, because he's an Italian.. he's got tanned skin. This makes the Italian very sad because he really thinks Ludwig's a nice guy.. he would like to be friends with him.
Just when Feliciano wants to step out of his hiding place, a group of Hispanics is coming their way. They don't look friendly, maybe they are a sort of gang just like Ludwig and his friends.
"What are you doing here? This is our territory, go hang out somewhere else you fucking beaners!" One of Ludwig's group yells at them.
Feliciano decides to wait until it's safe to leave his hiding place. He's constantly checking for Ludwig's reaction to his friends actions because he wants to prove to himself that Ludwig's not a bad guy.
Ludwig just laughs, but doesn't pay attention to them anymore, instead he takes a bottle of water out of his bag and starts drinking, turning his back to his friends and the Hispanics.
They come closer to them.
"You're wrong, this is our territory you are the ones that should go somewhere else. Or do you want to fight? The loser will leave" The leader of their group speaks.
"Fine!" The bald headed guy that pushed Ludwig to the floor earlier today answers. The other guys are already standing, preparing for a fight.
Ludwig heard what they just said and he quickly gets up.
"No, don't. Why don't we just leave? We shouldn't have a fight here, there are children playing nearby." He offers, trying to avoid a fight.
"Shut up ,you little German whore! Are you scared?"
"First you want me to shut up then you ask me a question.." He turns to his own leader.
"Please Peter, let's just leave this place"
"Fine, fine. We'll leave but next time you're dead" He's pointing at the other man.
"Good, walk your little girl home safely before she gets scared"
Peter wants to hit him anyway but Ludwig stops him. "He isn't worth it"
"I will find you, German boy and you will regret this day"
Ludwig leaves with the rest of the group, ignoring him.
Feliciano waits for them to get out of sight and leaves the park too. He was right about Ludwig, he's not that bad after all right? Ok he's a member of a dangerous gang.. but he didn't pick a fight with the Hispanics, he tried to avoid one.
...
The next day the Italian's late for work, Ludwig's already cleaning the counter and greets him.
"Good morning, jeesh what happened to your face?" He asks sounding a little worried to Feliciano's surprise.
"Oh nothing, I bumped into something"
"You're lying. Someone hit you.. I know that kind of bruises and what may cause them"
"Yeah I'm sure you do" Feliciano snaps without thinking about it.
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"Nothing, sorry I didn't mean it like that. You're right I got into a fight with my boyfriend"
"Why don't you sit down for a while? You're getting very pale"
Feliciano slumps down onto one of the chairs.
"So you were arguing about something and then he just beat you up?"
"Yes something like that. He always thinks I'm cheating on him.. but I didn't"
"Why don't you just break up with him? It's not normal for a person to beat up his boyfriend."
"I still love him.."
"Did it happen before?"
"Yes but only a few times."
"A few times! That's not good"
"I know, if it happens one more time I'll break up with him"
"Fine, but if you ever need someone to talk you can always call me, ok?" He gives him a small piece of paper, his cell phone number written on it in a very neat handwriting.
"Thanks a lot. It's funny that you're talking a lot to me now.. instead of Monday when you didn't want to talk to me at all."
"I just wanted to get to know you first, and I'm a little worried about you.. that's all."
"Well if you ever need someone to talk, you can call me too." He quickly writes his cell phone number down on a piece of paper and hands it to the blonde.
"Thanks"
...
It's a very busy day and Feliciano really needs a break but there's no time for it.
He watches Ludwig who's busy cleaning the tables, then recognizes the group of people sitting at the table next to the one Ludwig's cleaning. The Hispanics..
Ludwig didn't seem to recognize them.
"Hey white boy" One of them calls him.
Ludwig freezes, dropping the cloth onto the table, then turns to face them.
"Please just enjoy your food and try not to make a scene."
They just laugh at him. "Why not? Because you don't want to lose your stupid job?"
"Exactly. Now leave"
"Oh, not yet" Miguel, their leader, grabs his wrist. "Sit down"
Ludwig takes a seat. "I don't have time, my boss-"
"We don't care about your job, we want to warn you.. killing one of our best man wasn't a smart thing to do"
"What! I didn't-"
"We know you're the one who killed him"
"Oh that's awful.. I didn't do it, I didn't even know it happend. I'm sorry"
"Don't pretend you're sorry. Your tattoos prove that you think of us as an inferior race."
"That's right, but I didn't kill anyone and I have to work now" He quickly leaves their table.
"Ludwig, are you ok?" Feliciano asks worriedly.
"Yes, I'm fine. They asked me something about the meals" He lies.
Pleaseeee review, it makes me happy & write the next chapter soon.
