"Hey Lovino how is the project coming?" _ asked as she set her things down next to him.
"Pretty good, I actually just finished it last night." Lovino replied pulling his sketch book from his bag and flipping to the back of it. It was a colored sketch of a steaming plate of pasta that looked like it should be hung up in a fancy Italian restaurant in Rome.
"Why pasta?" Lovino smiled
"When I was younger before my grandfather passed away we used to always make pasta together from scratch not from a box and can." _ smiled.
"It's beautiful Lovino, I really like your use of purple in the background."
"You can look at my earlier stuff if you'd like. How is your's coming along?" _ started to flip through the rest of the sketch book.
"I am almost finished, but I feel like it is missing something…" _'s hand froze at one image in Lovino's sketch book. It was a sketch of two children a boy and a girl swinging on a swing set with the biggest grins on their faces as the sun shone brightly through the clouds.
"Did you use live models for this sketch? Did you go to a park or something?" he glanced at the sketch a small smile spreading across his face.
"Yes, I drew that one a long time ago. I think it captures the true essence of childhood don't you think." _ nodded as she gaze at the children, the boy in particular his white hair how it shone like silver in the sunlight.
*his art style is so familiar to me, but how can that be when this is the first time he as ever let me look at any of his other work.*
**"Hey get out of my shower!" _ yelled pumping her legs harder so that they would no longer be swinging in unison. The white haired boy in the swing next to her laughed and swung back preparing to jump.
"Be careful!" she called as he flung himself in the air.
"I am too awesome to not land it." he said with a huge grin both of his as both of his feet planted firmly on the ground.
"Now it's your turn to jump!" _ shook her head.
"You no I don't like jumping off. It's too scary!" she called down to him.
"Oh come on I'm right here if you need me." she hesitated for a moment and the with one final swing she flew through the air like a bird trying her best to make sure she landed on her feet. _ landed hard on her butt, the ground shaking her entire body.
"_ are you ok?" Gilbert asked as he knelt beside her. Tears were brimming in her eyes.
"No, I landed on my butt and it really hurt!" she replied wiping a tear that started to roll down her cheek. He extended his hand out to her.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't of asked you to jump." she took his hand a wiped the dirt off of her butt.
"It was kind of fun though… the flying part." he smiled.
"You mean falling with style." she grinned as they both stuck their arms up to the sky and said
"To infinity and beyond."**
_ woke up to the sunshine streaming in throw the blinds of her window a smile still lingering on her lips. Her smile quickly faded.
*Why did I dream about Gilbert and not Ludwig?* _ thought biting her thumb nail. _ picked up her phone from her night stand to see if she had any new messages or notifications.
**"Any plans for today?" -Ludwig** realization hit her like a bucket of cold water to the face. *Lovino drew a picture of Gilbert and I… The hints purple in the background. Could Lovino be Feliciano in disguise?*
**"Yea shopping and I really should work on my paper for English…"**
**"Oh alright then, have fun babe."**
** To: Lovino "Are you busy today?" We need to talk…" - _**
