AN: Second chapter of this.
Enjoy.
That evening, Lovino ended up falling asleep at Vash's house while waiting on their nonno. It was after he was asleep that Gilbert showed up looking for Ludwig. "Vash, have you seen Lud - oh."he said, catching sight of his younger brother frowning worriedly at Lovino. He was speaking quietly with Feliciano, who answered him.
Vash looked to Gilbert before rolling his eyes. "Feli and him ran into one another, so I invited him to come over. Kept Feliciano busy."
"Well..our mom's worried..so..."Gilbert said. "She asked me to come get him."
Ludwig looked over at his brother then. "Hallo, Bruder."he said softly.
Lovino stired a bit, but didn't wake up.
Gilbert half smiled. "Aw, who's this one? Feli I've seen before."
Feliciano grinned. "My big brother, Lovi!"
Gilbert nodded. Ludwig got up and moved to his brother's side, waving goodbye to Feliciano and Vash as Gilbert bid them a farewell and disappeared again.
The following week, it became a habit. Ludwig would spend time with Feliciao while Lovino was gone. It offered a great distraction for the younger of the Vargas twins.
A lot of people drifted around this schedule as well.
It was different, that much was for sure.
Once school started, Lovino was around more, so he had to attempt to get along with Ludwig more often. He wasn't keen on the idea, but he didn't fight against it much. In fact, he started inviting Alfred and Matthew over as well so they could all hang out and spend some time getting to know one another. It was better than nothing.
Matthew could see the changes in his best friend, though. He said nothing, but he didn't say anything.
Feliciano noticed this silent exchange every so often, so he brought up a new topic to distract them from a heavy conversation. It wasn't worth the pain it would cause.
And yes. It's short. I'm being rushed again. I have something I have to do for my German class that I need to get to work on finishing planning.
Ciao!
