Chapter 2.


Ludwig was sitting on a chair next to Lovino's bed. He was worried about him, and moved his hands through Lovino's hair. Ludwig saw a tear coming out Lovino's eyes. He was also shaking, almost like he was about to break down. Ludwig tried to calm him, but his words couldn't reach him. Lovino kept shaking and multiple tears rolled down his cheeks. Ludwig called him over and over again , but he couldn't be reached . Then Lovino started to sob uncontrollably. He almost screamed. Ludwig, seeing this going out of hand , tried to wake Lovino. Ludwig's words couldn't reach him though. it was like Lovino was locked inside of his dream. Ludwig tried to wake Lovino once more and held Lovino's hand. Ludwig was very concerned. He kept holding his hand firmly and he didn't let go.

Even though Lovino always called Ludwig a potato head and other things, he knew Lovino was actually pretty kind. In the beginning Lovino was a bit too overprotective about his brother towards Ludwig, but soon Lovino understood that Ludwig was a good man. Even though he'd never say that out loud, he started to be kinder towards him. Ludwig noticed that and they started talking to each other oftener and so Ludwig came to understand as well that Lovino was very kind and that he treasures the people he loves. Antonio had also told Ludwig earlier that Lovino would often say rude things, but that he wouldn't necessarily mean it.
''Ludwig, you shouldn't take his insults always seriously.'' He said.

Antonio also told Ludwig loads of other things, like how Lovino used to be when he was little and how he and Antonio had loads of fun. Ludwig and Antonio often met each other in a park near the big concert hall were Roderich often performed. When Antonio and Ludwig met , Antonio enjoyed to tell Ludwig all kinds of stories and Ludwig liked to listen to them, especially those about Lovino. He didn't know why he did. Perhaps because Antonio is good at telling stories? Or is it something else? He didn't know.
After Roderich had performed he would sometimes drop by and listen to Antonio's stories. Elizabetha and Gilbert also dropped by every now and then. Elizabetha would talk hours about how Feliciano was as a kid and Gilbert often teased Roderich and Ludwig by telling the others embarrassing stories from when they were kids. Together they had a lot of fun, but Ludwig actually wanted Feliciano and Lovino to be there too.
''Why don't I ask them?'' He always questioned that himself. Ludwig didn't know why he didn't ask them.


Ludwig was still holding Lovino's hand. An hour had passed since he entered the room.
While he is looking at Lovino he notices he is about to wake up. Softly he whispers in a sweet ,gentle voice :''Good morning Lovino'' Which makes Lovino twitching his eyes. Then Lovino notices Ludwig was the one who just said those words and he also sees that he is holding his hand.

''W-w-why are you holding my hand you potato bastard! L-l-let go! Why are you even in my room?'' Blushing like a tomato Lovino tries to move his hand away.

Ludwig lets go in surprise and answers: ''Sorry, Feliciano is making breakfast right now. I came to tell you that, but you were sleeping so I waited for you to wake up. I'll leave now.'' Ludwig stood up and walked to the door.

''W-wait…how long have you been waiting for me to wake up?'' Lovino didn't look at Ludwig . He was looking at the ceiling , a bit embarrassed.

Ludwig turned around an looked at Lovino. '' About an hour.'' ''Thanks..'' Lovino looked away, probably because his face was red. ''It's not like I fucking care about you..Okay?'' ''Yeah, yeah. I understand. Will you come downstairs soon?'' Lovino didn't answer. ''You will come right? Feliciano is …''

before he could answer Lovino interrupted him '' Shut up. I'm not coming…'' '' Why not, your brother is making you a delicious breakfast!'' ''It's always Feliciano this , that. I'm just the stupid brother who can't do a thing. Just go away! '' '' It's not! It's not always about Feliciano. You're also good at a lot of things.''

Lovino crawled out of bed, standing right in front of Ludwig. '' Don't make me laugh….GET OUT, NOW, YOU BASTARD!'' Lovino was really upset and almost crying again. Preparing to hit Ludwig he raised his arm, but Ludwig grabbed his arm and pushed him down on the bed.
