"Okay, Ludwig you can do this," Ludwig told himself as he did another clean of his dorm room. "It's just Feliciano coming over for a few hours. Nothing to fret about it."

Ludwig walked up to his phone and checked the time. He sighed seeing her still have about two hours before Feliciano would be here. Looking around he noticed that his dorm looked nice. Quietly he leaned on his bed and stood there for a moment.

"Maybe he would want to watch a movie," Ludwig opened up his laptop and started going through different ones. "Hopefully I can find one he'll like."

"Now you promise you won't be out too late," Mei said leaning against the wall.

"And how late is that?" Felciano asked putting his tablet in a backpack.

"I didn't think you'd ask that."

"Don't worry I'll be home before midnight." Feliciano slung his backpack over his shoulder. He walked over to a small hook and took his keys off it. "See you guys later."

Feliciano walked out of the house and down the street. At the bus stop, he held his pass tightly and remained behind the other people present. When the bus arrived Feliciano boarded it and texted Ludwig as soon as he was on. He remained silent and constantly looked between his phone and window. Eventually, he leaned on it with a few glances back to his phone. He looked around the bus for a moment and thought he saw someone wearing a sweatshirt with Ludwig's college logo on it but it was a bit obscured. A few minutes later he noticed a notification that the college was coming up. Immediately he requested the bus to stop before getting off with a few other people. Slowly he looked around before noticing Ludwig across the street.

Ludwig leaned on the side of the bus stop. He looked up and saw Feliciano walking off the bus. As Feliciano crossed the street Ludwig waved to him and Feliciano responded with a small one of his own. Feliciano's pace sped a little when he saw him.

"Hi, Ludwig." Feliciano greeted as walked over to him. His voice sounded a bit off. "I'm so glad I was able to come"

"Hello, Feliciano. I'm glad you could make it as well." Ludwig led Feliciano down to campus. The entire time Feliciano looked around.

"This is much larger than my campus," Feliciano said as he looked around.

"Oh, would you like me to show you around?"

"You don't have too," Feliciano said looking down. His voice was still in that off tone.

"Feliciano are you alright?"

"Yeah, it's just I talked to my parents before I came here. They aren't the biggest fans of my, sexuality." Feliciano kept looking down. "I mean they don't completely hate it but they tolerate part of it."

"Is it the part that you could still end up with a girl?"

Feliciano remained silent for a few moments. "Yeah, but between you and me I have a guy preference."

"Don't worry your secret is safe with me." Ludwig placed a hand on Feliciano's shoulder. "Now let's continue on there's more I want to show you."

"Your dorm room is really nice," Feliciano said as he walked inside. He walked around a bit before placing his bag on the floor.

"It's nothing much," Ludwig closed the door behind him. Carefully he placed his keys on the hook by his door.

"Oh what a cute dog," Feliciano said. Ludwig turned to see Feliciano looking at his nightstand. "Oh sorry."

"Don't be." Ludwig walked over. He picked up the picture. It was of him in is his high school graduation cap and gown. Next to him was an old german shepherd sitting up and Ludwig had an arm wrapped around him. Ludwig looked over and saw Feliciano staring at, mostly the dog. "This is my old dog Aster. My family got him when I was five."

"He's a really cute dog," Feliciano said as Ludwig put the picture down.

"Thank you." Ludwig walked away while Feliciano stayed for a few seconds afterward. "So is there anything, in particular, you want to do?"

"I don't care what we do."

"Well, it's too early to grab dinner." Ludwig sat down on his bed and Feliciano climbed on right after. Slowly he placed his backpack next to him. The fell down on him and Ludwig pushed it up and felt something in there. "Did you bring your textbook?"

Feliciano laughed a little. "Nah, I'm not studying tonight. That's my drawing tablet."

"Is it something you bring everywhere with you?" Ludwig moved the backpack so it was leaning against the wall.

"I wouldn't say everywhere." Feliciano leaned back. He turned to see Ludwig giving him a confused look. "Well I don't bring it to class unless I need it and if I'm going out with my friends, depending on the location, I leave at home."

"And you brought here because?"

"Easy it can keep me busy on the bus ride home." Feliciano brushed off the question. "Would you like to see some of them?"

"Your drawings?" Feliciano nodded and started to reach for his bag. "Are you sure?"

"I'm the one who asked you," Feliciano said holding back a laugh. "Just give me a minute."

Feliciano turned on his tablet. Quickly he pulled out a pen for it and tapped the screen a few times. Ludwig looked up at the ceiling as Feliciano did this. He kept eyes looking up at.

"What kind of art do you like?" Felciano asked after about a minute.

"What kind?"

"Yeah, like are you a fan of more realistic art or do you prefer something more stylized. However, if you're an abstract fan I don't really draw that. Not my cup of tea."

"I have seen some pretty impressive realistic art. Do you have anything like that?"

"I have a few pieces like that." Feliciano swiped across his tablet a few times. He examined the screen a few times before tapping on it. "Here this is of my cat Gino."

Ludwig turned and looked at the drawing. At first, he thought Feliciano was showing him a photograph. If there wasn't some texture that resembled paint and Feliciano's signature it could pass as an actual photo. It was of a gray cat sitting in a windowsill. He could see a little bit of sunlight, shining on the cat. There was even a sense of movement in the piece with curtains moving behind the cat.

"You drew that?" Ludwig asked as it pointed to it. Feliciano nodded with a wide smile on his face. "That is very impressive."

"Thank you." Feliciano kept smiling.

"It must have taken you a long time to draw that."

Feliciano turned the tablet to face him again. He looked at it for about two minutes before turning it back around. "If I remember correctly this took me about ten hours."

"In a row?"

"Not this one. I have spent entire days drawing but I can never stay with the same piece for that whole time. I did over the course of a few days."

"I don't know if I could stop working on a project to work on something else."

Feliciano leaned on the wall and looked at his tablet. "I've had other people say that too. I dunno, I just get bored looking at the same thing for a long time."

"Is ten hours the longest you spent on a drawing?"

"Nope." Feliciano scrolled through his drawings. "This is it. It took me a whole week. If I had to put it in hours I would say, about twenty."

Ludwig looked at this second drawing. This one was of a group of four people, each performing what looked like magic. Behind them was a giant blue dragon, that appeared to be roaring.

"That is very impressive. I can see why it took so long."

Feliciano smiled again before turning off his tablet and returned it back to his bag. He then took his bed and gently placed it on the ground. He brought his legs on the bed and crossed them. Ludwig turned to face him. For a few seconds, the two sat there is silence.

"So um do you want to grab a something to eat?" Ludwig asked.

"Uh sure."

"Alright." Ludwig climb off the bed. He walked over to where his jacket was and took it off. Feliciano proceeded to do the same. He looked at his backpack and slowly pushed it under the bed before walking over to Ludwig.

The two walked outside and across campus. As they walked, Ludwig couldn't help but notice that Feliciano started walked closer to him. It was probably only by step or two but it was something he couldn't help but notice.

"So how much does the food cost here?" Feliciano asked all of a sudden.

"We're going to the main dining hall, you don't need to pay anything," Ludwig said calmly.

"Are you sure?" Feliciano paused for a second.

"I have guest passes," Ludwig said bluntly.

"But what if your family comes for a visit?"

"I live two hours away, my family is unable to visit that often. You don't have to worry."

"Wow, that's a decent drive. I live a little over an hour. What made you chose Winston University over the others?"

"Simple, my father went here. My plan is after I graduate and go through law school, is to work at the family law firm."

"Interesting, I found out about Heartsdale at my school's college fair," Feliciano said catching up to Ludwig.

The two made their way to the dining hall. They walked upstairs to the main hall. The entire time Feliciano stayed about a step or two behind Ludwig. Ludwig was able to check Feliciano in the dining hall without any issue and was able to find an available two person table. After showing Feliciano where the different sections of the dining hall were got dinner himself. He sat down at their table and waited for Feliciano to return.

"Sorry I took so long," Feliciano said walking over and sitting down. "I had to wait for the pasta to finish cooking."

"It's not a problem." Before he could say anything else, Ludwig's phone buzzed. He picked it up and started typing. "Sorry, it's my brother."

"Older or younger?"

"He's older than me by three years."

"Did he go to school here too?"

"No, he decided to attend a different school and did not pursue law."

Feliciano looked down for a moment. "Was your father upset when he found out?"

"I believe so. I wasn't present when Gilbert told them but I remember my father being rather quiet for a few days afterward. It was very awkward at home for a few days. But we don't have to dwell on that. Do you have any siblings?"

"I have two brothers one older and one younger." Feliciano laughed a little. "Things can get a little crazy somethings but I wouldn't have it any other way. Even at our worse, I have to appreciate them, they're two of the only ones in my family who fully accept me."

Ludwig and Feliciano went on with dinner. When they were done they walked back to Ludwig's dorm. After some time the two decided to watch a movie. Ludwig set up his laptop while Feliciano made some popcorn and grabbed a blanket. Once the movie started Feliciano took the blanket and put half of it on Ludwig. He looked over and Feliciano smiled. For some reason, this felt right.
