Lovino went back down into the chamber in his normal clothes as a male again and looked at Vladimir who was gathering supplies. "So what kind of potion?" Lovino asked curiously. Vladimir looked over and smiled. "Well it's Valentine's week so why not make a love potion?" Lovino nodded and stood beside Vladimir.

"Okay so around this time I'm usually busy with Love potions. The thing is when people make their orders all they say is love potion which is really vague." Vlad explained. "There are so many different kinds of love potions I can make so usually I make lots of different kinds so when they come in they can choose."

"Wait, how can you make different love potions? Isn't all just the same thing?" Lovino asked confused. "Not quite. See alot of people here come for what they call "love potions" and end up leaving with something entirely different. Someone may come in asking for love potions and leave with a lust potion instead," Vladimir said. "And that will be the first one I teach you," Vladimir said and Lovino nodded.

"People get lust potions usually for an intimate time. These are alot easier than love potions so we start with this one," Vladimir said. He showed Lovino how to do it. "First you need this pot with the fire on. You get the scales of a dragon. Pour that in and then get orange rose petals and crush them before you throw them in," Vladimir explained as he showed him how. "Does it have to be orange?" Lovino asked. "Yes, this flower represents desire so it has to be orange," Vlad said throwing it in. He watched as Lovino tried to copy in his own small pot. He looked concentrated as he poured the flower petals in.

"Okay here comes the science part. Potions rely heavily on chemistry so we put some of this in," he said holding up a vial with a white powder in it. "This heightens your testosterone and estrogen so that makes your sexual desire sky rocket," Vladimir said handing the vial too Lovino. "How much do I put in?" Lovino asked unsure. "Just about a pinch, don't want to kill them," Vlad said watching Lovino place a small amount onto his palm. He showed it to Vladimir and he nodded before Lovino dumped it in.

"Okay, next is just a pinch of blood from an incubus," he said pouring drops of a black liquid into the pot. "Incubus?" "Surely you know what that is right?" "You mean a succubus?" Lovino asked. Vladimir frowned. "I'm the expert here don't doubt me," he pouted. "Succubus is meant for attraction potions. Incubus blood is for lust potions," Vladimir explained. He watched as Lovino shrugged it off and continued. "That's about all, now we use magic," Vladimir said pulling out his wand. "This finishes the potion and makes the smell go away," he coughed and pointed his wand at it. A blue light came out and the potion swirled before turning into a soft blue liquid.

Lovino looked impressed before pulling out his wand. He repeated and the contents swirled before turning into a pink liquid.

He frowned and Vladimir chuckled. "Why is mine pink?" Lovino asked. "You weren't concentrating correctly," Vladimir said. "You have to focus your emotion on lust and desire when you make this," Vladimir said. "Oh... Well whatever bastard, I hate potions," Lovino said scowling and walking away. "It's okay, you tried."

"Coffee?" Vladimir asked. "Ugh, no." Lovino said taking a seat in front of the fire place. Vladimir sat beside him with coffee anyways and a small plate of sweets. "So how do you like America?" He asked as he bit into a muffin. "It's nothing compared to Italy, but atleast my brother doesn't get picked on for being bi here," Lovino answered. "Your brother is bi? I wouldn't have expected that," Vladimir said. "Si, it came as a shock really. The whole school found out and I was always getting into fights because of it." "Really? That's amazing, you fight for your brother. I look up to you as an older brother," Vladimir said drinking his coffee. "No, I look up to you. You raised a baby that you found. He's so sweet too, I wouldn't have been able to do that." Lovino drank his coffee surprised with how good it really was.

"What can I say? I fell in love with Aurel. I couldn't just leave him, I felt like I had to protect him. If I ever meet his mother I'm going to turn her organs inside out," Vladimir said as he brought a blanket over the two. "Why did you come to America?" Lovino asked. "I came here to go to school. I met Minel here as transfer students. We got into a big fight when we first met," Vlad said with a chuckle. "You two fought?" "Yeah over an eraser. Anyways after that we were both roomed with a guy named Ivan. He was pretty scary so we moved out together." Lovino thought for a second. "Are you two a thing?" Vladimir choked on his muffin and began to cough violently. "No! We're just good friends. I mean sure we joke about us being mommy and daddy but we never mean it," Vladimir said.

Lovino's eyes widened for a bit before he fell into a smirk. "So who's the mommy and who's the daddy?" "Minel is daddy," Vladimir said before falling into a small blush. "I can't believe I just said that. It sounded so wrong!" He said burying his face into his knees. Lovino laughed and continued to make conversation with Vladimir.

They never realized how late it had gotten or how many cups of coffee they had until Lovino received a text. He checked his phone and read the message from his brother. 'Where are you?' He looked at the time and realized it was now 6 in the morning. "Oh fuck," he said as Vlad looked at him curiously. "It's already 6am. Everyone is going to show up soon." "Oh. Aw Aurel and Minel are going to be so mad at me," he said pulling out his phone. He noticed he had 5 missed calls from Minel. "I'm sorry, I didn't realize it was so late. You won't get in trouble will you?" Vladimir asked. Lovino shook his head. "Okay good. I'll be right back I have to call Minel," he said running off.

He called back and was met with yelling on the other line. "I'm sorry. Please don't yell at me. I'll bring you yogurt. Yes lots and lots of it. Yes I promise. My phone was on silent and I forgot to call. Yes. Okay I'll see you at home. Yes. Okay mommy loves you too, bye," Vladimir hung up and sighed before hearing Lovino's chuckles from behind him. "Please don't tell anyone," Vladimir said before walking out of the chamber with Lovino following after. They unlocked the doors and Lovino changed into black pants and a pink button up shirt. Arthur and Kiku walked in surprised to see the two already there.

"Did you spend the night here?" Arthur asked. "Yeah, time just kinda went by," Lovino said. "What were you two doing?" Arthur asked smirking. "Talking," Vladimir said. "I can check your memory. Was it really just talking?" He asked. "Yes, you damn pervert it was just talking," Lovino said. Kiku laughed lightly before going into the kitchen and starting the baking. Lovino cleaned as Arthur changed both himself and Vladimir before Matthieu came in.

Lovino turned and looked at the trio of girls surprised. Vladimir hid slightly as Arthur tied his own hair into twin tails. Matthieu pulled his dress down as he made an uncomfortable expression. "You three look so cute," Lovino said. "I would date you if I knew you weren't guys. Hell I'd still date you as long as you didn't turn back at awkward moments," Lovino said approaching them. Matthieu blushed as Arthur smiled proudly. Vladimir hid behind his long hair and did his best to hold down the tiny skirt he wore. "I look awful as a girl," he whined. "I think you look really cute," Lovino said smiling at her. She blushed and looked down again. If only he looked at her like that when she was a guy, he thought.

It was lunch time when Gilbert came in with Alfred and Matthias following behind. "Al? What are you doing here?" Mattie asked as the trio sat. "Mattie? What the hell? Why are you a chick?" Alfred yelled as he looked as his now sister. "Magic?" He said. He looked over to see Gilbert flushed red and wide eyed as he stared at her. "You look so cute, can I date your sister Al?" Matthias said jokingly. "No way dude! I'm not letting anyone touch my sister!" Alfred yelled. "Relax I already have a date anyways," Matthias said smiling towards Lukas who sat reading. "Hey, is Kiku here?" Al asked his brother quietly. Matthieu gestured to the Japanese taking orders. He wore red pants and a white button up as he went around with the tray. Matthieu quickly took their orders after much stuttering from Gilbert and walked away.

Alfred flushed red as he suddenly stood up. "Kiku!" He yelled gaining everyone's attention. "Will... Will you go to the school dance with me?" Alfred yelled out. Kiku flushed red as everyone now stared at him. "I would be honored too, Alfred-san," he said shyly. Everyone began to cheer as Alfred smiled and Kiku walked over to put his heated face onto Lovino's shoulder. "Congratulations bastard, you finally get your own Yuri or whatever you call 'em," Lovino said smirking. "It's Yaoi!" Kiku exclaimed before flushing deep red again. Matthieu went over to the trio's table where Alfred was still pink and smiling. "Congratulations brother." He said softly.

"Hey..." Gilbert spoke up as Matthieu turned to him. "I was going to ask you out to the dance too, but he kind of made me look lame now," Gilbert said flushing red. Lovino over heard and watched Matthieu flush pink. "Eh? Well you can ask if you want. I don't mind how you do it," Matthieu said softly pulling on her apron. "I made you these, so will you go to the dance with me?" Gilbert asked shyly as he gave her a small bag with cookies in them. She smiled softly as she took them. "Sure, I'd love too," she said gaining a bright smile from Gilbert. "Really? That's great!" "Wait, you didn't ask for my permission. You can't just date my sister!" Alfred said as Matthieu left.

Lovino and Arthur stood side by side smirking at Matthieu as he went up to them. "Well, Gilbert?" Lovino asked cheekily. "Got yourself one of the btts huh?" Arthur asked. "Btt?" "Bad touch trio. That's what they call themselves," Arthur explained. "Ah, Gilbert isn't too bad," Matthieu said blushing. "Yeah I guess he isn't the worse," Lovino agreed. "Then you can go out with Antonio next!" Arthur teased. "Then you get Francis, you dick pancake," Lovino said smirking. He watched Arthur flush red and the two began to throw insults at each other. "Dick pancake?" Matthieu asked quietly feeling horrified.

...

Kiku stood in the kitchen flushed pink as he mixed the ingredients for another cake. He didn't know how to react. He didn't have a problem with being with another man but it was Alfred. The star football player in school and he was one of the school nerds. One of the "weaboo" as people called it. Would people tell him anything? He didn't know what to do.

"Kiku." He jumped at the sudden voice and looked over to see Lukas walking over to him. "Yes Lukas?" He asked. "Can we do training today? We haven't done so in a while." Kiku smiled lightly. Magic training was perfect for getting his mind off of everything. "Yes, i would like that." "Oh and congratulations for your date," Lukas said dipping his finger into the batter and eating it. "Please don't do that! And thank you," Kiku said pulling the batter away from Lukas. "Okay, well I'll meet you after work," Lukas said walking away.

...

I have been neglecting the magic and other groups! Worry not though I'm going to shift this next chapter towards Kiku and Lukas. Anyone thought of who Arthur may hire for Valentine's day? Here's a hint. He's been in the story already, for a small bit )

Also I'm surprised people are actually shipping Romano and Romania. I'm kind of glad actually. What exactly would be their ship name? Romano? Romania? RoRo?
