A/N: An apology to those that have been waiting for this. I've got another chapter I'm looking through as I type, so it should be up sometime tomorrow. Hopefully.

Zombies have been ravaging the city, please get help!

Beloved Adoption Counselor Murdered?

Due to the insistent cries from the family of Dr. S'In an autopsy is underway. Since the death of Dr. Christian S'In many individuals have come forward furious at the justice and medical systems lack of compliance with this case. Most suspect that an illegal gang still runs the majority of these cases, and have since '98. Because of this suspicion and the sudden increase of cold cases many are leaving the city in fear of their lives. We will post the results of the autopsy and any other information once it is released.

Continuing down the hallway, Antonio held Romano's hand firmly. To Romano it felt as if Antonio was conveying all of his hope and love among that one innocent act. To Antonio it felt as if Romano's hand was the only thing keeping him from breaking apart the small Japanese man in front of him, and finding the precious girl himself. But he knew that such an act would only hinder their fate. And they had waited far too long as it was, so he held true to the only anchor in his life. Cautiously reminding himself of the other beauty that would parade his already blessed existence.

Smiling down gently at Romano, he could not help but look forward to his future.

Ten years before. Freshman Romano and Senior Antonio.

As if like clockwork Antonio had called Romano that night. 9:00PM on the dot. Not even a second was sparred. Their conversation was short and sweet, but Romano didn't seem to mind. He found that hearing the whispered sweet nothings and everythings from the handsome Spaniard was enough. Just to know that he was wanted was enough.

Antonio found ending their conversation to be a difficult, yet needed task. He wished the beautiful Italian "good night, bella", and hesitantly hung up the phone. Scurrying through the drawers he pulled out the lube hidden in the drawer, and laid across the bed. Unzipping his trousers the Spaniard poured a bit of lube onto his hand, and examined the videos before him. All of them were of a certain Italian, and all of them were committing lewd and demeaning acts. One was of Romano using the bathroom, another one was Romano self stimulating himself with a very lucky vibrator, and the last one was of Feliciano being brutally raped by the Spaniard himself.

Antonio found himself looking towards the videos of Lovino rather than that of the lesser twin. Grasping his straining erection with the lube covered hand, Antonio found himself coming to pieces watching the angel before him. Pumping himself roughly he desperately wished it had been Lovino he had made love to, rather than having brutally fucked Feliciano. Had he known that there his true love had been right around the corner, he would have never touched the bitch. But his line of work called for quick fucks, such as the one he gave Feli. So, he supposed, it was all for the best.

Cumming quietly into his hand, Antonio allowed himself to be washed away by the ongoing pleasure moving through his very veins. No other orgasm had ever hit him so hard, or had ever been so fulfilling. Breathing harshly, Antonio continued watching the videos. No longer out of sexual desire, but out of love. He wanted to know all of the Italian's quirks, and this was surely a start to that.

Rewinding the videos, he decided to watch them all over again. Perhaps this time he would learn something new.
