10 years later
Many things had changed drastically after Lovino's death. During those 10 years, it had taken 4 years for Antonio to accept that Lovi was gone. He spent 3 years isolating him self while drowning him self in alcohol until Feliciano had convinced him to talk to a specialist. Though Feli on the other hand, yes he sure had it hard as he also had cut him self from society but not until his boyfriend finally decided to drag him to see some specialist after finding him attempting suicide several times. Lovi's words finally sunk in, telling him to move forward after a session or two with the specialist. Though, even after that, Antonio and Feli would rarely communicate with their once so-called friends and classmates. Especially with Gilbert after the incident at the bar after Lovino's funeral. Though, Ludwig and Honda(occasionally) were an exception as they were very close to Feliciano. They had stood by Feli, despite an unsocial and intolerable person Feliciano had become.
Hetalia Gakuen, the high school that Antonio, the Vargas brothers and everyone else had once attended, was holding a reunion. Funny enough, it was held on the evening of Lovino's 10th anniversary after passing away. It was also quite interesting that everyone had decided to turn up.
The room was quite spacious, seeing that it was held in the schools' hall. Streamers and balloons of white, pearl, navy and sky blue decorated the walls and tables while bouquets of white lilies and daisies sat in the center of each table and at the entrance.
Gilbert could be seen chatting away with Frances at the drinks bar while Alfred would be helping himself to the snacks at the tables laid out with entrees. Arthur could be seen talking to Elizabeth and Roderick, who were still together after so many years, near the entrance. Everyone else was seated and chatting to the person next to them, such as Honda and Wang who were sitting at the table at the furthest end of the hall. As for Feli and Antonio, Feli arrived with Ludwig along side Antonio. It was quite awkward as they walked in at first, especially with Antonio since he had cut communications with his once best mates, Gilbert and Frances. Some were a bit amazed to the fact that Feli and Antonio had decided to attend despite what day it was. But all smoothed out after a half-an-hour or so as everyone put the past behind them.
However, the awkwardness between Gilbert and Antonio didn't quite smooth out. Antonio approached the drinks bar to grab some drinks for him, Feli and Ludwig. Frances was detesting the atmosphere around him as the two men in front of him were near each other. He could have decided to walk away but instead, he nudged Gilbert, and with a bit of force at that, towards Antonio.
Gil: (unhappy) oya…long time no see….!
Ant: …yeah, it has. I need to go now so if you'd excuse me…
It was the only thing that popped into Antonio's mind to say in that moment. As he about to take off with 3 glasses of punch, Gilbert quickly grabbed Antonio's arm.
Gil: Please stop and listen to me for sec.
The brunette was taken by surprise, especially when juggling 3 glassed of drinks. Though even after that little incident 10 years ago, Antonio was still kind enough to at least listen to what the silver-haired man had to say.
Gil: …look…about 10 years…ago…I want to apologize. I'm really sorry about what happened and I really do regret the things I did…and said.
Antonio was taken by another surprise while Frances let out a sigh of relief. Who would've imagined such words coming from Gilberts' mouth, knowing how narcissistic he was. Antonio really wanted to hear such words.
Ant: (smiles) thank you, Gilbert. I really wanted to hear that.
He then placed the drinks on a near-by table and the two made-up with a handshake.
Though that didn't mean that Antonio was ready to forgive Gilbert.
Ant: well, I better get these awaited drinks going so I'll see you around later.
In the mean time, Feli and Ludwig were having a conversation with Honda and Felis' cousin, Seborga along with his wife Wy at Honda's table. Seborga was also a student at Hetalia Gakuen but he was 3 years younger than Feli. Seborga and Wy had also bought along their 5 year old child, who looked very much like Lovino but his eyes were of a different shade, which was inherited from his mother. Antonio returned with the 3 drinks. Funnily enough, Feli asked Seborga what he name the little boy and he named him Lovino. Seborga may have been 4 years younger than Lovino but he looked up to Feli's big brother muchely even though Lovi never even noticed. So when Seborga had gotten word of Lovi's death, he had quite a hard time coping just as Feli and Antonio had.
Feli, Ludwig, Antonio and Honda just looked at each other and then back at Seborga with astonisment.
The evening party was coming to an end and a performance was played out with Arthur delivering final words and Roderick performing his best piano performance. Somewhere in between the piano performance, a mysterious light began to illuminate the stage from above Roderick. Everyone began to look up at it and Roderick too as his performance was halted. And there, sitting on the supportive stage railings above sat Lovino and his beautiful white wings.
OMG... Finally!
umm... yeah... I used the characters' human names but I couldn't find one for Wy or Seborga so I ended up using their original names. Like I said, I don't own Hetalia to the life that the characters lead are made up.
It took me like a fortnight to write but then again, I've been lazy. please also pardon any grammatical mistakes as i was in sleepy mode. But also, like I said, this is my first fanfic.
Well anyways, thanks for reading my first fanfic and I hope you enjoyed it. :D
