A loud thump woke Romano from his deep sleep. He knew immediately what it was and was about to go back to sleep but a small grumble right next to him made him turn.
Just to be faced with a very very sleepy Spaniard.
Antonio rose his head ever so slightly and looked around confusedly "Wha..."
Feliciano had somehow managed to roll all the way across the bed and had his body horizontal to the rest of the bed, his head resting on Romano's belly while his feet dangled off the bed. Leaving Romano and Antonio right next to each other.
Romano's brain was too sleepy and his body was too comfortable to move... well that was his excuse to himself anyway.
" 's just the air conditioner turnin' on. We've light again." he mumbled, pulling his little brother in a somewhat more comfortable position and covering him again.
Antonio mumbled something incoherent as he laid his head back on the pillow. Romano snuggled back under the covers, pressing himself against Antonio.
He smiled as he felt the Spaniard's arm around him pulling him closer as if he were a teddy bear. With a deep sigh, Romano relaxed and drifted off once again.
It must've been early, since there was barely any light coming in through the windows.
Romano felt Feliciano struggle against his arms and as soon as he let go, the child fumbled out the bed and softly walked out of the room.
It was normal for Feliciano to wake up early and sometimes Romano would drag himself out of bed too, but today was not one of those days.
He turned slightly and buried his face on Antonio's chest.
The world and everything on it be damned, Antonio was warm and comfortable and Romano deserved to be comfortable after all the recent shit he had gone through. Even if it was just for one morning.
The light thump of small feet running down the corridor was what started waking Antonio up.
It was not something he was used to hearing this early in the morning but the sound was somehow soothing and warm.
The next thing that started alerting him that something was out of place and that he should try to gain consciousness was the figure sleeping soundly on his arms.
That was when yesterday came into focus and he realized where an with who he was.
He was at Romano's apartment, Feliciano was probably playing outside and the figure in his arms was the elder Vargas brother. And the warm feeling of just being home was almost overwhelming.
With a content sigh, Antonio snuggled up to Romano, pulling him closer to him and resting his forehead on the back of the Italian's head. His arm was almost painfully asleep from being used as a pillow most of the night, but it didn't matter, this was absolutely the most perfect moment.
Romano started shifting in his arms so he gave him some space but he still had his arm around him.
"Buenos dias, Lovi." he murmured with a soft smile as a pair of olive eyes looked confusedly at him.
"Oh, good morning... " Romano murmured as he stretched out, making the most adorable sound Antonio had ever heard.
"Why are you smiling like that, you idiot?" Romano reclaimed as he tried weakly to push Antonio away.
"Oh, you're just adorable when you wake up." he replied grinning.
Romano suddenly got serious and frowned. " We need to talk, Antonio..." he murmured, pushing away from Antonio successfully this time.
Antonio tilted his head to one aide and looked worriedly at Romano, "Something wrong Lovi-Love?"
Romano felt something inside him snap. He forgave Antonio for many things. The man was obviously an idiot, he couldn't stop himself. But that terrible horrible nickname was abso-fucking-lutely out of the question.
"Listen here," Romano hissed menacingly at Antonio as he pointed his finger at his face, "You can never ever EVER call me like that again, am I clear?"
And what does the idiot do? Laugh, of course.
"THE HELL ARE YOU LAUGHING ABOUT, I'M SERIOUS YOU IDIOTIC TOMATO BASTARD!" Romano roared as he threw himself on Antonio, trying to asphyxiate the laughing idiot with a pillow.
"I'm sorry! Lo siento, Lovino!" the idiot tried to say between laughs.
Romano scoffed loudly and threw the pillow hardly at Antonio's head.
He jumped off the bed and busted out the door and into the shower. Yeah, a nice warm shower would make him all better.
Romano walked out of the shower with a towel over his wet hair. He wasn't as annoyed as before but he still hadn't forgiven the bastard.
Antonio was now dressed up and sitting with Feliciano watching the t.v.
"Good morning, fratello!" Feliciano chirped happily as he smiled at his brother.
"Good morning, picolo. Have you eaten breakfast yet?" Romano asked, purposefully glaring at Antonio who threw up his hands in a sign of surrender.
"Yep, Antonio and I had some cereal."
"Good." Romano said as he walked to the kitchen to grab an aple or something.
"Lovi, you should come and see this." Antonio called him from the couch.
Romano walked to them and leaned on the arm of the sofa and looked at the news on the t.v. They were announcing floods everywhere and apparently yesterday's storm had taken the city by surprise.
However one thing made a cold chill run up his spine. " ... and the heavy flooding on second and third avenues have affected most of the establishments on ground level."
Before Antonio even had the chance to react, Romano had dashed out of the living room and into his bedroom.
Feliciano looked at where his brother had disappeared and then at Antonio. "What is wrong with him?" he asked confused.
Antonio sighed and passed his fingers through his hair. Something he often did when he was worried. "You know the streets where the rain flooded?" Antonio asked him.
Feliciano thought for a moment and then shook his head.
"It's right where 'The World' is, Feli."
