October, 7th, 2019, so this was the day Lovino, and Gilbert would pretend to date. Lovino didn't want to admit it, but he was a little nervous. He stared at the mirror for a good twenty minutes; until Feliciano knocked on the door and asked "Lovino, what are you doing in there?" Lovino swung open the door. "What does it matter to you damn it!" Feliciano stepped back from the door. "S-sorry…" He walked down the hall and Lovino was alone again.

Lovino seemed to fell more stressed each second; it was beginning to worry him. He looked at the electric clock plastered on the wall 6:45, Gilbert would be here in about fifteen minutes; Lovino sighed as he felt his stomach drop. This would be a long night…

Gilbert straightened his tie the best he could, it still looked crooked, but his awesomeness would out shine the tie. As he began to head for the door Ludwig grabbed his shoulder. "Gilbert, are you going out?" Gilbert gave a grin from ear to ear. "You could say that. I'm going on a date." Ludwig almost seemed startled; it made Gilbert a little angry. "A date, with whom?" Gilbert opened the door and stepped out halfway, before saying "Lovino~" and slamming the door behind him.

Lovino felt his head pound as he waited for the sure to be disaster. Lovino heard the doorbell which only caused his head to pound harder; even so he tried his best to hide his displeasure. He opened the door to see Gilbert grinning. Feliciano came up behind him. "Gilbert?" he questioned. "None of your business!" Lovino yelled, he could feel the heat in his cheeks, this was embarrassing. He grabbed Gilbert's arm and slammed the door behind him. He heard Gilbert chuckle and scowled in return.

"You must get embarrassed easily…" Gilbert said trying to keep himself from laughing. Lovino frowned and tried his best to ignore the statement. "Where are we going anyway, damn it!" Gilbert smiled. "Well first we're going to spy on them!" Gilbert said dashing off behind a car. Lovino followed cocking an eyebrow. He crouched down next to Gilbert. "Spy?" Gilbert nodded furiously. "We are going to what to see their actions about our going out. Even so, if this goes as planned, we might not be able to spy on them for long." Lovino was actually getting curious what did he mean?

"Why's that?" Lovino asked. Gilbert smiled widely. "Well if things do go according to plan, they'll start spying on us." Lovino was grasping what Gilbert was saying; but didn't think it would work. Why would they want to spy on them? "So, if we're not spying we'll be…" Gilbert looked over at Lovino. "Going on dates of course, they have to think we're dating remember?" Lovino wasn't quite sure if he liked this idea. It seemed too… difficult. "Gilbert; are you sure this is a good idea?" Gilbert frowned and looked at Lovino.

"Of course I'm sure! Are you really planning on doubting me?" Lovino didn't really want to say 'Yes' to that question. So he decided to say nothing at all.

After about thirty minutes of waiting Ludwig stood at the door of the Vargas brother's home; Lovino was realized that they were done waiting. Feliciano opened the door with a worried look on his face. Luckily it was quiet outside so Gilbert and Lovino could hear them fairly clearly. "What's wrong Feliciano?" Ludwig asked. Feliciano frowned. "Lovino went of with Gilbert earlier tonight." Ludwig frowned. "Gilbert did see he was going out with Lovino tonight…" Then it seemed to dawn on both of them. With that they began speaking quickly about how this happened. Feliciano saying "I'm so worried for him…" over and over. 'Gilbert was right?' Lovino thought in disbelief. Gilbert was smiling over the fact his plan worked. "See Lovino, told you it would work! Now we better go somewhere, they'll expect us to be gone at least another hour." Gilbert said standing up enough to walk but not enough to get noticed.

Lovino did the same; they ending up talking the whole hour. Lovino somehow got on the topic that he was the younger brother, which Gilbert actually believed, saying he was the older brother even though he didn't look it. Gilbert mentioned how he had been disbanded back in World War II; which was why he now lived with his little brother.

In the end they gained a mutual respect for each other. Lovino didn't know what that would cause; but didn't think things would end up worse.

When Lovino returned home he opened the door only to be hugged tightly be Feliciano. "Lovino, are you alright?" he yelled. "I'm fine! Let go of me!" Feliciano did as he said and let go. He looked at Lovino like a lost puppy. "I was so worried about you!"

Lovino scowled. "Oh, really, sorry I thought you'd be out with Ludwig! You'd have no time to worry about me!" Lovino yelled running up the stairs. "Lovino!" Feliciano yelled. Lovino locked the door to his room and slid to the ground. This plan was working…but Lovino wasn't sure if it would really split Ludwig and Feliciano up. As the problems of the plan sped through his head he drifted off to sleep; the sound of Feliciano's tears echoing through his ears.
