A/N: Hey Guys! Update Time! Since school started, I might update later than usual, but I'm gonna try to keep up on it. I have two more multi-chapter fics that I've been thinking about making. They'll be Itacest as well, and on of them will be another AU, so keep an eye out for those ones too(: Enjoy~
Feliciano shot up in bed, covered in sweat and heart pounding. He sat there in bed for a while, holding back tears and hyperventilating. Soon, the tears came anyway and he started sobbing grossly. The person laying next to him shot up as well and pulled him closer. They ran fingers through his hair, holding him close and rocking him back and forth gently. Feliciano looked up to Lovino's face, eyes soft and glistening. Lovino pressed gentle lips to anywhere on Feliciano's face that he could reach, avoiding the lips of course. Ever since the murder incident, all Feliciano saw in Lovino was a killer. He forgot about the Lovino that he first met. The one that wanted to take care of him since the first second that they met. The one that has a beautiful daughter whom he loves so so much. This is the Lovino that he fell in love with, the over-protective, comforting, short-tempered Lovino. Feliciano gently pulled his arm from Lovino's vice grip and adjusted their position to where Lovino would kiss his lips instead. It's funny how something as simple as comforting a nightmare could make Feliciano change his mind completely. They sat there together, lips molding together naturally, like they always have. Lovino was the first to pull away, face contorted in confusion.
"I-I thought you said-"
"I've changed my mind. For good this time. You did it to protect me, and even after I turned away from you, you still made sure that I was okay. I can't walk away from this. You'll forgive me, won't you?" He asked. Lovino chuckled.
"Of course. You're too precious." He flicked Feliciano in the nose, earning him a punch in the shoulder.
"Besides the circumstances, who said that you could sleep with me?" Feliciano asked suspiciously, eyebrow cocked.
"Well, you were whining and trembling in your sleep, so I laid next to you to try and get you to stop." He confessed. Feliciano blushed, muttering a small "thanks". A smile broke out on his face and he hopped out of the bed.
"Today's my birthday!" He shouted, skipping down the stairs. Lovino watched him hustle the staircase and soon felt another body in the bed with him. Elena pounced on him, squeezing the breath from his lungs.
"Good morning!" She squealed. He pushed her off of him.
"Morning." A frown laced his features. Elena pinched his cheek.
"What's wrong, hun?"
"I've gotta get Feli something for his birthday." He hopped out of bed and hustled around the room, getting dressed before rushing out the door. Feliciano soon walked up the stairs and locked eyes with Elena.
"Where's he going?" He asked. Elena huffed, sliding off of the bed dramatically.
"I'm not sure." She pushed past him, walking down the spiral staircase and Feliciano bit his tongue from saying anything.
Feliciano was shrouded in multiple pillows as he sat on the bed, eating pockies and watching Hellsing Ultimate for the hundredth time. Suddenly, Kiku knocked twice before bursting into the room.
"Feli." He called lowly.
"Yes?" Feliciano answered wryly.
"I got the penis candy." He whispered. Feliciano paused the anime and gave Kiku his full attention.
"Show me."
Sprawled on his bed, Feliciano lay. His feet tapped against the mattress and he popped different sized bubbles with his gum. After Kiku came over and gave him a new Macbook Air 13-inch laptop and some..."private files," Ludwig sent him a Totoro sweatshirt and told him about some anime called "Shingeki No Kyojin" that he said was good to watch. Feliciano tries not to tell a lot of people about his birthday because he's never been good at accepting gifts. He's always been good at giving them. Suddenly, his phone vibrated and it was a text from Lovino telling him to come downstairs for his birthday present. Feliciano sighed. Knowing Lovino, it was probably something expensive and flashy. He did it anyways, taking the elevator warily and getting outside. He was eye-to-headlights with a cherry red Lambourgini Estoque with silver racing stripes and mocha leather seats. Lovino got out of the driver's seat, slapping a bow on the side mirror.
"Happy Birthday, amore." He sang. Feliciano wasn't sure if he should be excited or pissed. He decided on the latter for now.
"Where did you get this car?" Feliciano dropped his voice. Lovino rolled his eyes.
"I bought it like a normal human being." Feliciano glared at him softly.
"No, you didn't. This beautiful car is not even in production yet. However, you just happen to have one." He caressed the hood of the car, totally contradicting his angry tone. Lovino slid behind him sneakily, wrapping his arms around Feliciano's waist.
"So, you don't want the car?" He breathed in Feliciano's ear. Feliciano sighed.
"No, I really want this car." He whined softly. Lovino kissed his ear.
"Then it's yours." He slid his hand into Feliciano's back pocket and walked over to the passanger seat. "Dai, let's take her for a spin." He got in. Feliciano reached into his pocket, finding the keys.
The duo pulled up to Ludwig's house and Feliciano honked the horn sporadically. Ludwig rushed outside to see what the problem was, but sighed wearily when he saw that it was just Feliciano. Feliciano got out of the car, waving gleefully.
"Luddy, look at my new car!" He shouted. Ludwig gaped at him.
"How di-I don't even want to know." He rubbed his eyes tiredly.
"By the way, I got the hoodie you sent me! Grazie, boo!" He giggled, gripping the bottom of said sweater. Ludwig smiled softly.
"No need to thank me." Feliciano moved to get back into the car. "Hey, don't forget! I'll see you Friday to check up on you." Feliciano nodded in response. Ludwig watched them pull out of his driveway.
"Feli!" Caterina shouted as she ran out of Angel's house. Feliciano bent down and caught the little girl in his arms. They swung around, giggling as Angel slowly strolled out of the house.
"Alright, frocetto, you have her for today, but I want her back in a few hours. Capeesh?" She drawled. Feliciano flashed her a big smile.
"Of course! Just like we agreed!"
"I don't want her around Lovino while the cops are still on the hunt for "whoever" burnt that house down. I guess the idiot forgot about that small detail, eh?" She trailed off at the end while she walked back into the house. The pair watched her retreat for a little while.
"Happy Birthday, Feli!" Caterina squealed, squeezing her little arms around his neck.
"Grazie! Come on, let's go get some ice cream to celebrate." He carried her to his car and they drove off to grab ice cream. As Feliciano watched the little girl eat the creamy dessert, he felt a sense of lonely-ness again.
"Nonno! Come on! Let's go get gelato!" Feliciano, at the tender age of ten, scurried over to the ice cream parlour. His Grandfather chuckled, walking behind the small boy.
"Wait, Feli! The ice cream isn't going anywhere." He called. Feliciano stopped, bouncing up and down on his toes. It wasn't just the ice cream he was excited about, but hanging out with his Nonno again. Ever since a few months ago, he's been acting really strange and Feliciano just doesn't understand why. Everytime he asks, Nonno just tells him that everything is okay.
"Are you ready to go home yet?" He asked her. Caterina pouted, shaking her head no.
"I like eating ice cream with Feli!" She whined. Feliciano ruffled her hair.
"I like eating ice cream with you too, but your mamma will have my throat if I don't get you home." He took her hand and they walked back to the car, Caterina complaining about having to leave Feliciano the whole couple of feet it took them to walk to the car.
So, Feliciano turned out to have a pretty good birthday after all. He pulled up into the brothel parking lot, the stars almost invisible in the city sky. Walking up to the door, he noticed that there wasn't any music blaring from the building like usual. Shrugging his shoulders, he pulled the door open and stood in shock as the main stage and lounge was decked out with balloons and Italian flag patterned streamers. There was a huge banner over the stage that read "Happy 21st Birthday, Feli!" on it in big, bubbly letters. Eyes ghosting with tears, his face split into a huge smile as all the workers and even the customers shouted happy birthday to him. A few of the regulars he had when he still worked as a prostitute came up to hug him and tell him that they missed him, which caused him to tear up even more. A bottle of champagne was popped open and music blared from the speakers once again, signaling that the party was once again in action. Some balloons fell from the ceiling, raining onto the bodies as they danced in a big mob. Feliciano's pocket vibrated again, and he groaned. He pulled his phone from his pocket, blushing at the text he happened to have.

I have a few surprises for you at home ;)
If the winky face had any indication to what the surprise was, then Feliciano was actually pretty excited. His body has been ready for a while now, but he hasn't had anyone to have sex with. Luckily, today's his birthday. Sighing dreamily, he bit his bottom lip and slowly backed out of the brothel doors, waving goodbye at anyone who happened to notice him leaving.
He drove down to the house, pulling into the driveway and trying to contain his excitement. He took out his key, hand shaking as he struggled to shove it into the lock. Finally, he slid it in and found purchase, turning the key and slowly walking into the house. When he walked in, he noticed that the house wasn't lit at all except for some dim light coming from the living room. Speaking of the living room, a trail of rose petals flowed from the door over towad the living room as a sort of pathway. Feliciano set his bag down on the tile and followed the deep red petals into the living room. He stopped in his tracks when he walked into the room. The floor was cleared of the table and spaced out. There were candles around the room and a stereo against the wall.
"What's all this?" Feliciano said quietly.
"Just something I planned for your compleanno." Lovino said smoothly, turning on the stereo. Soft music flowed from the speakers as Lovino walked up to Feliciano. He took his hand, pulling him closer and gently grasping his waist. Feliciano smiled softly, settling his hand on Lovino's shoulder and they slow danced together. Sighing, Feliciano rested his head against Lovino's chest, closing his eyes as they swayed together.
"Did you have a nice birthday?" Lovino asked. Feliciano nodded. He felt his head being tilted and his lips were pressed against Lovino's softly. Lovino pulled him as close as possible, unzipping his sweater and slipping it off of his shoulders. "Hey, Feli?"
"Hmm?" Feliciano looked up at him.
"Do you think you're ready? Cause you know, I don't want to force you into anything." Lovino muttered. Feliciano chuckled, pulling him into another kiss and push them toward the stairs.
