He walked home in a daze. The flower in his hand was a small daisy. He twirled it in between his fingers, a small smile showing on his face.
"God West, what the hell happened to you? Gilbert asked as he shivered.
"Shut up." He hid the flower and straightened himself.
"Oh? Is my brother blushing? Gasp, is it a girl?" he asked playfully as Ludwig rolled his eyes.
"No it's not."
"Oh yeah, I forgot my brother isn't into chicks. So…a boy?" Ludwig's face turned red.
"N-no, there was just a kind little girl who I ran into."
"Lolicon?" Gilbert's head tilted like a dog's.
"Brother just stop!" he said as he retreated to his room.
Damnit was he falling for the red head? He just met him; he doesn't even know his name. He heard shouting coming from the yard. He went to his window and peered out. That's when he came face to face with his red haired angel.

"Damn you Feliciano!" Lovino charged at him.
"F-fratello! Please! I can explain!" he said running the other way.
They were at their new site for the circus, the Beilschmidt estate. Apparently Antonio knows one of the brothers that lives here and got permission to have the circus on their grounds. Thank god they had such a spacious yard or else Lovino would've caught him already. Maybe he could hide somewhere for a while. He took a sharp turn and saw a window that was open. He took the chance and leaped through it, only to land on top of someone.
"Oh! I am so sorry!" he said flailing his arms as he tried to get up, only to fall back down again.
"No, it's alright. I seem to be running into people a lot today." Wait that voice. He looked up and saw the man who brought Jemmy and Willis to the field. The man seemed to recognize him, too.
"You're the guy…the kind mister…Wait! Don't tell me you're the one who let the circus come here!" he asked frantically. The man sighed and got up, helping him, too.
"Nein that was my idiot of a brother. He thought it would be hilarious for my 20th birthday."
"Oh…" I wonder who his brother is. Is he the one Antonio knows?
Just as the thought passed another man slammed the door open. He looked very different from the first man. For one he had white hair. (The other was blonde)
"WEST! I heard a VERY loud thud downstairs! What the hell-" he paused and looked at Feliciano, "happened here…"
He stood there a moment and stared at him, his mouth slightly open. Then he cleared his throat.
"Well little brother, I'll just let you continue what you were doing. Have fun!" he said as he ran out the room, just as the blonde one threw a book at him.
"GIL IT'S NOT LIKE THAT!" he yelled, a slight blush bloomed across his face. He chuckled a bit, only to hear Lovino's voice shout outside; and it was growing closer.
"Feliciano Vargas!" He heard Lovino yelled at him in Italian.
He shot up and darted out of the room. He had to escape before Lovino started curing at him again.

Just as quick as he came, the little red head left as soon as someone came in through the window.
"Damnit! You're not getting away you bastard!" a person who looked exactly like the red head yelled as he climbed through the window and followed out the same way. Chasing him like a rabid dog.
After the two left, their voices a mere echo now, Ludwig and Gilbert were left in silence.
"Well then! I'm going to see how the circus is going." Gilbert announced as he headed out the door.
"Yeah…" Ludwig mumbled; mainly to himself.
He could still feel his heart racing from being so close to him. He still had petals entwined into his messy red hair, which actually turned out to be a reddish brown color. His eyes were so full of life, the honey color; it was almost like the middle of a daisy. His smooth skin, almost like a girl's was a fair shade of gold. Damnit Ludwig! Get a hold of yourself! He scolded himself as he got up and also went to check on the circus.
As he walked out the door he heard children laughing and the soft sound of an organ. The sweet melody was calling to him. Almost as if an unknown magic was pulling him in, he followed it willingly. As he walked closer, he felt a small hand grasp his. He looked down and saw Jemmy, the girl from before, smiling up at him.
"Mister are you going to the circus, too?" she asked. He smiled back and nodded.
"Huh? Oh no, I was just a little curious. That's all." He saw her frown and thought for a moment, "Unless, you want me to come with you?" She smiled instantly and started to pull him to the tent.
"Yay! Willis couldn't come so I have an extra ticket!" she held two small tickets, both a pale blue color and lined gold.
They entered, hand in hand, and found some seats in between an elderly couple and some teenage boys. The lights suddenly turned off, a man popping out from the darkness with only a single light shining down on him. He smiled, causing many women to swoon.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls! Welcome, to Italia Circus!"
