"Oh someone's ready for their date," Mei said joyfully walking into his room.
"Is it too much?" Feliciano said turning towards her and Kiku, who was reading some manga on his bed.
"I think you look alright," Kiku said looking up from his manga.
"But is it too much?" Feliciano asked again looking at his shirt again.
"It's cute," Mei said with a smile. "I sure Ludwig will love it."
"Aww someone's nervous," Tezera said poking her head through the doorway.
"I just want to look nice," Feliciano said sheepishly as he rubbed the back of his head. He glanced at his phone before gasping. "Oh shoot I'm gonna be late. See you guys when I get back!"
Feliciano grabbed a light jacket and his backpack before heading out. Waving to his suitemates before leaving the house. When he got to the bus stop, he did a few quick adjustments to his outfit and hair. Checking himself out with the camera of his phone. He sighed in relief after seeing everything was alright. Soon afterward the bus pulled up and Feliciano started bouncing in place. Quickly he boarded the bus and sat quietly in his seat. Looking intently as hr phone. Watching the time pass by, knowing with every minute, he was getting closer to his beloved.
"He'll be here any minute," Ludwig thought to himself as he leaned on the pole by the bus stop. He checked his watch again before looking out. A few minutes later the bus pulled up at the nearby stop. Ludwig stared at it intently, as Feliciano hopped off the bus. As it drove away, Feliciano looked around a bit before noticing Ludwig. A smile immediately grew on his face. With no hesitation, he ran over to Ludwig. The two stared at each other for a moment before meeting each other in a warm embrace.
"How have you been?" Ludwig asked after the two of them stopping hugging. Still, neither of them looked away from each other.
"Better now that's with you," Feliciano said very cheerfully grabbing Ludwig's hand tightly. Ludwig smiled at him before running his fingers gently through Feliciano's hair. Soon the two started walking.
"So how's apartment life?" Feliciano asked they started walking. Feliciano was keeping his hands in his pockets. When Ludwig looked at them, he saw Feliciano move them deeper in.
"It's going alright," Ludwig said staring ahead. He heard Feliciano make a little sound but when Ludwig turned to face him he flashed a warm, gentle smile at him.
"Nice building," Feliciano said once they reached the dorm. "Could be a better color though."
"I didn't choose this place because of the color," Ludwig said as he started to walk to the doorway. Felciano followed closely behind. As they walked through the building Feliciano looked around. Ludwig couldn't figure out why. It was just an ordinary building nothing special.
"So my roommates will be in the apartment for a bit," Ludwig said as they started to get closer to his apartment. "Then we should be alone for a bit."
"Oh I the sound of that," Feliciano said, suddenly sounding very excited.
"Hey, you guys are here!" Alfred yelled out as the two of them walked inside.
"You got a nice place," Feliciano said as he walked in.
"Don't worry we'll be out of your hair in a few minutes," Arthur said walking into the living room. Feliciano waved to him before gently sitting on the couch. Ludwig was quick to follow him but sat a few feet away from him. Feliciano stretched out his arm, spreading out his hand. Ludwig looked between the hand and his roommates before deciding not to take it. Feliciano sighed to himself before pulling his arm back and looked down.
"So you got any plans?" Feliciano said in a half flirtatious tone, once the two of them were alone. He leaned on the arm of the couch.
"Well yeah we could," Ludwig paused before looking at Feliciano. "Am I a good boyfriend?"
"What?" Feliciano gasped leaning closer to Ludwig. "Where did you ever get that idea?"
"Because I'm not the most affectionate person in the world," Ludwig said sheepishly rubbing the back of his head. Shortly after he covered his mouth with his hands. To his surprise, Feliciano grabbed his other hand and gently leaned on his shoulder.
"I think you're a great boyfriend," Feliciano said with a smile. "As long as you are comfortable, I don't mind being the affectionate one."
"Do I contribute anything to our relationship?" Ludwig said, hesitating with every word.
"Of course you do, would I still be with you if you didn't?" Feliciano said with a little laugh. "You know there's more to a relationship than physical affection right?"
"I guess," Ludwig said as Feliciano laughed some more.
"I promise there is," Feliciano said grabbing Ludwig's hand tighter. "So are we on a date or what?"
Ludwig smiled and held back a bit of laughter. Slowly he pulled Feliciano close to him. Feliciano, for his part, wrapped his arms tightly around Ludwig. But not before gently kissing him on the cheek. When the two ended their embrace they looked each other in the eyes and in the moment, they knew everything all was right.
"You know I've had way worse pizza," Feliciano said before taking another bite of the pizza slice in his hand. "But I have had better."
"Yeah our school isn't really known for food," Ludwig said taking a bite of his own slice. "Part of the reason I agreed to an on-campus apartment."
"You did not have pizza with me," Feliciano said annoyed but with a slight laugh.
"Isn't this what couples do?"
"Not all the time!"
"Well excuse me for trying to be cute."
"But Ludwig," Feliciano started to talk in his flirtatious tone again. Stroking Ludwig's cheek as he did. "You're always cute."
"Oh please," Ludwig leaned back a little.
"I mean it," Feliciano said giving him a small wink.
Ludwig sighed but smiled. Feliciano scoated closer to him before leaning his head on Ludwig's shoulder. Ludwig stiffened up a little before relaxing. He heard Feliciano to himself before somehow moving closer. Slowly Ludwig lifted his arm and wrapped it around Feliciano. Watching him for a while. His bright oh so adorable smile stood out. Gently he leaned closer and kissed Feliciano on the top of his head. Feliciano looked at him. Shock clearly plastered on his face. Slowly that melted away into a very sweet smile.
"See," Feliciano said softly, his smile not fading away for a second.
"See, what?" Ludwig pondered, tilting his head a little.
"You can be affectionate when you want to," Feliciano teased snuggling closer to his boyfriend.
"I don't know I just feel more comfortable when it's just the two of us," Ludwig started rubbing Feliciano's arm. "I feel more comfortable in general with you. Weird I know."
"I don't find it weird at all," Feliciano said sounding very offended before talking very sweetly. "I like seeing this side of you when it comes out. It's very adorable."
Ludwig froze for a second. Feliciano laughed to himself. "What?"
"No one's ever said that to me before."
"Well get used to it," Feliciano said adjusting himself so now his arms were around Ludwig's neck. Gently giving Ludwig a peck on the cheek. "Because you're gonna be hearing stuff like that a lot more often."
"I look forward to it," Ludwig said with a laugh. Feliciano looked longingly at him. At this moment this was all they needed.
