As they walked it to the memorial, they could see that a few had others had already arrived. Feliciano was surprised to see his parents had came, although he wasn't surprised about his grandfather or younger brother being there.
Cautiously, he made his way up to them, Lovino following behind."I didn't expect to see you guys here." Feliciano said, timidly.
Mrs. Vargas just smiled, regret in her eyes."Well Feli, we know how hard today must be for you." She took a deep breath before continuing."So we'll try and be here for you."
This surprised Feliciano. He's mother finally coming to terms with his and Ludwig's relationship. Too bad it was too late. But before it could seem too good to be true, Feliciano's father had to open his mouth."Yes, we'll be here to support you, but..you have admit this may be sign it was time for you to...get over this phase of yours."
Feliciano couldn't believe had the hell he just heard."W-what the hell does that mean? Are you saying this is a good thing?! Feliciano couldn't even think of a comprehensible response to this.
That was when Lovino pushed past Feliciano, standing protectively in front of him."No. No one has time for you homophobia or bigotry. You can choose to act like an adult or not, Because if I hear you say something like that to Feliciano again, I will personally throw you out of here." Lovino said this in typical angry Lovino fashion.
Their father just shut his mouth at this outburst, not wanting anger his son further.
Lovino then led Feliciano away and had him sit between him and their friends.
Gilbert was currently sitting with Elizabeta, being comforted by her. It was hard for both of them, but it was especially hard for Gilbert. Ludwig was his baby brother. and Gilbert looked out for most of their childhood. On top of that, when Gilbert was in college and Ludwig still was in highschool, their parents died in a car crash. That's when Gilbert took Ludwig in as his legal guardian until he turned 18.
Ludwig and Gilbert's parents had already decided that should anything happen to them, their sons would be taken in by their grandfather. But around the time they died, Their grandfather was starting to develop dementia and was determined not fit to take care of Ludwig.
At that moment, the memorial started.
As it went on, Feliciano tried to drain out the words of the minister leading the ceremony. He didn't want to think about what he was here or who he had lost.
But he couldn't drown it out for long, because now people were starting to say a few words of their own."Would anyone like to say any meaningful words or thoughts? If so, please step up now." Feliciano was debating to whether he could say anything or not, but ultimately he shakely got up and made his way to the front.
As he stood in front of the room, he took the mic with quivering hands and started.
"I actually didn't have anything planned to say, but felt I should say something. I know Ludwig's death," He had to pause to take a deep breath and steady his words."Is sudden, and quite frankly, it's still hard to believe. And even know I should be grateful for the time we had together, I still wish I had more. I know we weren't always supported as a couple, but I am extremely thankful to those who did. Thank you for encouraging me and Ludwig to be happy and to live our life's to the fullest, regardless of what others thought."
With this, he looked towards his parents."And even though it won't happen now, I'm grateful to those who agreed to help with our wedding" As he said this, his parents looked beyond shocked, not expecting to this. His grandfather just shrugged at their questioning looks, having not bothered to tell them that bit.
"I know Ludwig have thanked you guys for that too, for everything, but unfortunately he never got that chance." As Feliciano said this, tears started to form in his eyes."He really was the best man I ever had the serendipity to love. He was truly one of a kind."
As he said this he turned to step away from the center of the room, but as he did, a memory suddenly hit him. He remembered something from the party. It hit him like a 2 ton freight train. He couldn't believe it. He couldn't believe he didn't see it before.
The others looked worried at his sudden stop. He then turned to face them with the look of absolute loathing on his face, his eyes narrowing to Alfred murderously.
"You bastard. YOU BASTARD! You were sleeping with Ludwig! You were having an affair with my FIANCE!" With this sudden accusation, everyone turned to look towards Alfred. Alfred looked very worried and starting going pale at this reveal. Feliciano just walked towards where he was sitting, all the while he continued to go off on him.
"I remember now. I was mad at Ludwig because I caught you two together! I trusted you! I asked you to be apart of my wedding! But you went behind my back and slept with him!" Feliciano looked like he could have killed Alfred, but was held back by Antonio.
All eyes were on Alfred now."Is this true? Did you sleep with Ludwig?" Gilbert said, questioningly.
Alfred Looked around, looking some explanation to this."Alfred, please tell me this isn't true. Please tell me this is a misunderstanding." Elizabeta said.
tears formed in Alfred's eyes, knowing there was no way he could just tell them it wasn't true."See!? He's not denying it! You bitch!" Feliciano said, getting more and more upset.
Instead of saying something, Alfred looked for a way out of this. spotting the opened door, he bolted, escaping before anyone could stop him.
This was a hard one to write, but I really liked writing Feliciano differently for once. He's usually a pretty innocent and kind character to write, But I always wanted to see how different he might act under the extreme. I really want to write him like this to see how much I can break him, and to see if he can ever recover from stuff like this. Anyways, here's this chapter, reviews are appreciated!(ノ◕ヮ◕)ノ*:・゚✧
