Yeah...another chapter...I'm getting there :) sorry if Italy's a bit ooc in this one...I'm trying XD

Lily scowled at the list, Lovino looked at her expectantly, "you're free to go" she groaned, Lovino jumped from the chair and sprinted from the ship.

She slowly shook her head in disbelief.


Feliciano sat happily in a tavern with Mathew and Ivan, he gently kicked his legs as he sipped his wine "so Lovi goes red around the captain?," asked Feliciano "he used to go red around girls he liked"

"yeah, he goes red a lot, he complains about him all the time as well" laughed Mathew

"you should hear him bitching about him talking in his sleep" Ivan giggled

"ve, and how does the captain act around Lovi?"

Mathew and Ivan shared a strange look "well, he's been acting like he and Lovi are a couple," Mathew mumbled "but he's only pretending to stop Bella killing him...or something like that"

Feliciano frowned and a dark glint entered his eyes "so he's leading my brother on?"


Antonio was in the middle of plotting the next course that the ship would take when he heard the furious knocking on the door...he assumed that it was Vash, he grinned and opened the door to be met by a slap to the face, he looked down, shocked, to see Feliciano Vargas.

"um, can I help yo..."

"Shut up!," Feliciano shrieked "I thought you were nice!"

Antonio rubbed his sore cheek "I thought you were nice too, why did you slap me?"

"because you're being mean!" he exclaimed

"what the hell's going on!" both men turned to see Lovino looking very tired

"LOVI!" Antonio beamed before pulling Lovino into a tight hug "did you say ten things?"

Lovino blushed furiously and struggled out of the hug "of course not!," he lied "now fuck off I'm tired"

"you're so meeeeean!" Antonio wailed as Lovino stormed past and pushed his startled (and still a little grumpy) little brother and Antonio from the room.

Feliciano glared at Antonio "give me a moment with my brother" he muttered before re-entering the room and slamming the door.


Lovino was just getting into bed when he heard the door slam, he span around and managed to smile at his brother "oh, hi Feli, I thought I told you I was going to sleep"

Feliciano ignored him and sat on the bed smiling at his brother, "Lovi, can we talk first"

Lovino rolled his eyes "fine" he groaned, sitting down on the bed next to his little brother

"what do you want Feli?"

"do you like Antonio?" he asked seriously, Lovino stared at him, he couldn't remember the last time that Feliciano was serious.

"T, THE HELL SORT OF QUESTION IS THAT!" he hollered

there was a light knock at the door "Lovi?, are you all right?"

"ve, fratello's fine" Feliciano called,

Lovino lowered his voice and leaned in towards his brother "what the fuck Feliciano" he hissed as he steadily turned scarlett,

Feliciano was not a particularly perceptive person, however he knew his brother well, and as he watched Lovino's reaction his smile became sad, "so you do" he stated calmly.

Lovino's face went white "Do we have to talk about this with that stupid bastard standing outside?"

Feliciano smiled grimly "not any more, I'll let you sleep".

I know Italy was a bit weird in this one, but I doubt he would let Lovi get hurt...emotionally...but he probably wouldn't help in a fight XD
