A/N: Huh, I left out Xanxus in the 'daily scuffle' description. Oh well, he'd be somewhere else anyway. Kind of a part 2 to the last one? I think this one was a bit... sweet?
It was so early in the morning, but he knew that standing there would pay off. Lussuria was leaning against the large door that granted entrance into the clean abode he kept, waiting on anxious toes for the sound of tired footsteps and perhaps the sound of Xanxus' annoyed growl. He had been waiting for at least two hours after Bel had called to say they would be returning soon. Even in the early dawn, he could still see through his tinted lens, eyes eagerly searching for the group. He was sure they succeeded, made certain by the fact that Bel had confirmed their arrival at the international airport.
Mornings in Italy were not only made beautiful by the painted sky and warm airs that walked across the plains, but also the sight of people you cared about returning from a dangerous mission. He stood a bit straighter, leaning forward a bit to see if his eyes were right. "Voi~!! I'm starving, airplane food is fucking disgusting!" Lussuria's mouth curved into a wide smile, a giggle in his throat; he had made breakfast for the swordsman, knowing just how much he despised airline food.
Xanxus lead the group, eyes laden with stone cold emotion and a hint of weariness. He stayed quiet majority of the pathway to the front door, not even bothering to shut up Squalo, who now had Bel started up for no apparent reason. Fran stood off to the side, watching his senpai start a quarrel with the silver haired man. Levi walked behind them all, looking helplessly to the back of Xanxus' head and to the blood lusty pair about to throw down. "Hey, you guys, stop it!" Levi whispered harshly, not wanting to add to the anxiety Xanxus probably felt. "If dogs want to fight, then let them." Fran muttered, looking at the pair with little interest. Bel quickly turned to face his kohai, knives already perched in between his fingers. "Did you say something?" Before Fran could make another apathetic remark, Levi intervened and quietly asked the three to stay silent for Xanxus's sake. Bel grinned and slipped away his knives, Squalo crossed his arms and huffed irritably, Levi's face was impassive, much like Xanxus', and Fran pointed out who was waiting for them ever so diligently.
"Lussuria is waiting for us." Everyone remained silent, taking notice of Lussuria's alert figure. They had reached the door now, close enough to see a warm smile welcome them back. "Welcome back, men~" the Varia sun guardian chirped, holding the door open for each of them. Xanxus passed quietly, eyes closed. Squalo was next, entering with little greeting to Lussuria save for dropping a bloody, torn jacket into his arms. Bel walked by with a grin, still wearing his stained uniform; he had better grace and would just leave it in the laundry basket for Lussuria to wash. Fran came in after, looking at Lussuria briefly before muttering a "Hello" and continuing his way into the base. Levi was last, holding onto a few suitcases and mumbling a greeting before letting all the suitcases fall onto the floor. "I'll get those, Levi, hun, go wash up." Said man left with little hesitance, leaving Lussuria with each Varia's suitcase. He would be more than happy to unpack their clothes and wash them.
As if on cue, Squalo's infamous "VOI~!!" could be heard through out the base, the sound of glass crashing, the sound of knives sticking in the walls, the sound of feet making a run for it, an "Ushishishi", and the qualms of a man trying to be liked by his boss. Lussuria exhaled deeply. "Oho~ aren't we a bunch of chaotic men?" He held onto Squalo's jacket and began to wheel the suitcases to the washroom, passing buy Xanxus' open office with a fresh wine stain on the floor. Passing by Squalo's room, he saw the man frantically looking for his favored quilt. ("I'm washing it, Squalo.") Lussuria watched as Fran walked by, knives stuck in his back. He continued walking to see Bel up and about actively looking for his kohai, more odd knives at the draw. Just in front of the washroom, he was met with a wide-eyed Levi. "If you're wondering where Xanxus' wine is, I put it in the chiller." Levi nodded thankfully and ran with a determination at full speed towards the kitchen. These boys are full of energy, Lussuria reasoned.
He laughed gleefully, now in the laundry room and sorting through the clothes. The rest of the Varia may have been a bunch of experts in the art of killing to everyone else, but to him they were young men who needed constant watching; they made him feel needed. And they did need him.
"Lussuria!" Xanxus could be heard growling, most likely for the special wine Levi couldn't find.
"Lussuria!" Levi could be heard crying, most likely for help in looking for Xanxus' favorite wine.
"Lussuria." Fran could be heard muttering, most likely for advice on how to clean up his fresh wounds.
"Lussuria~" Bel could he heard laughing, most likely in search for Fran and wondering if he had seen him.
"Lussuria!" Squalo could be heard yelling, most likely for the breakfast yet to be served.
A maternal smile was all Lussuria could muster before letting out a content sigh.
"Today's going to be a busy one."
