*that same night*
Ludwig's p.o.v.:
" I know ve just met und all but... I vas vondering if tomorrow could be a date?..." I look away blushing. why? why? why? of coarse he wouldn't want it to be a date! why would I ask him that? now I'll never see him again! "of coarse its a date! I can't wait!" I looked over at the sound of his voice but he was running away by the time I looked over. As soon as Feliciano was out of sight -and as if on cue- there was my brother. Although not as drunk as I thought he would be... "hey bruder! you ready to go or what?" I sighed at how loud he was being. couldn't he have a respectable volume for one night?! " ja bruder ve can go now. do I have to drive or can you?"
"I can drive I'm actually not drunk this time!"
"VHAT?!" how was he not drunk? he's drunk at the end of every night! especially at parties! "don't act so shocked! I made a bet with Antonio and won! 50 bucks too!" well that explains that... "since your sober I vant to discuss something vith you in the car. OK?" he looked shocked. why was it so shocking that I wanted my big brothers advice on something? "sure ve can talk let's go" we then proceeded to the car.

"so... vhat did you vant to talk about?" Gilbert said in the car on the way home. " um... you see I met someone tonight and he gives me this weird feeling vhenever he's there..." wow that came out sounding weird. "like a get the hell avay feeling or please don't go feeling?"
"the second one" at that moment we stopped at a stop light and he looked at me. " aw! mein lottle bruder is in love!" I looked at him with rage "shut the hell up I am not!" or... am I falling in love... I wouldn't classify this as love right now... but... maybe its headed that way. the light turned green and Gilbert proceeded to drive to our house. " don't doubt the fact that love could be there! vas it the little boy running avay?" I looked at him shocked. "you saw him?!"
"ja und I saw how you looked at him und I can tell your in love~" at that moment we pulled into the driveway. Gilbert got out without another word. I wonder if I am falling in love? I guess I'll find out tomorrow.

I drove to Feliciano's house and arrived at exactly noon and while I was walking up to his front door I thought to myself vasGilbertright? amIfallingforhim? I'lljustseehowthisdategoesthenI'llknowforsure. I knocked on the door expecting to see Feliciano but instead saw someone who looked similar but... had this frown on his face. looked like that was how he was a lot.
"hey Feliciano! someone's at the door for you!" I looked at him puzzled. "how did you know I vas here to see Feliciano?" he just rolled his eyes and said-very sarcastically- "lucky guess" and walked away. I don't know what to think of that one. as soon as he started to walk away I saw Feliciano at the top of the stairs. "big brother please be nice to Ludwig!"
"not even if hell froze over!" he spat back. I seriously want to know what the hell it was I did to him for him to be such an ass! Feliciano then came to the door "sorry about fratello he doesn't really like a lot of people and even then he's like that around everybody. wanna come in?" and there was that feeling again. the same one as last night... except... a little stronger
Feliciano's p.o.v.:
I wish fratello would stop acting so mean to people! especially to people I like! wait. like? no! no more thoughts like that till after the date! I mean... it could go bad for all I know! I hope it doesn't... I then walked to the door where Ludwig was so I could apologize for my fratello. "sorry about fratello he doesn't like a lot of people and even then he's like that around everybody. wanna come in?"
"sure but if you don't mind since this is a date... you wanna go somewhere? maybe a park or movie or something?" he looked away blushing... why was he blushing it was just a simple question! unless... WAIT! does he like me? I know I *maybe* like him but... If I do end up being in love and he likes me back that would be the best thing ever! "sure! I would love to go to the park! just let me get my jacket OK?" he looked at me and smiled "OK then" I grabbed my jacket and we went to his car.
Ludwig's p.o.v.:
We were in my car on the way to the park when I realized it was a little silent. the silence was becoming uncomfortable so I decided to break it "um Feliciano may I ask you something?" he looked at me as if I had pulled him out of thought "sure what is it Ludwig?" I quickly thought of something to ask. I didn't really think this far ahead... strange... "um... I just vanted to know vhy your brother acted like my enemy did I do something?"
"no! no! of coarse not... he just... he's really skeptical of the people I date at first but I'm sure it's no big deal and I get it if you don't want to see me again after this because of that..." I pulled into a parking space by the park and looked him in the eyes "I'm not going to stop seeing YOU because if HIM your two different people." I then got out of the car and opened the door on the passengers side "you coming?"
"si let's go!" he got out of the car and started to walk ahead. I closed the door and jogged over to catch up to him "well someone's in a hurry!"
"sorry, I'm just excited..." I held His hand and smiled "me too" he looks down at the hand I'm holding. I blush and pull away "sorry! I don't know vhat I vas thinking..." he grabs my hand and gives it a little squeeze "its OK I actually like it..." I saw him blush and felt my heart beat faster. why am I like this around him? how can a simple blush increase my heart rate? hopefully I'll have answers soon.
Feliciano's p.o.v.:
"sorry, I'm just excited..." why did I just go without him like that?! maybe he'll think I don't like him or I didn't want to do this! I definitely want this date to go well and I do like him! I just don't know if he feels the same... but if he didn't feel the same why would he want this to be a date? that's it! from now on I'm going to try my hardest to make the rest of this date great! I'm suddenly pulled out of thought when I feel something grab my hand when I suddenly realize Ludwig's holding it. "me too" that's good. For a sec there I thought I ruined everything! I look down at his hand holding mine and then see him pull away. why did he pull away? I look up to see him blushing "Sorry! I don't know vhat I vas thinking..." I grab his hand and squeeze it "Its OK I actually like it..." I feel my self blush. I can't believe he's holding my hand! For some reason I have this weird feeling but... I like it... I don't want it to go away! I hope it never goes away!
We start walking down a path in the park when we reached this tree in a field. I didn't seem like anyone was there "Hey Ludwig?" he looks at me "yes Feliciano?" I looked at the tree "can we go and sit over there? I mean we don't have to if you don't want to I was just thinking maybe we could sit and chat... maybe get to know each other better..." great... now I'm rambling... "sure, ve can sit over there I'd you vant" he led me over there and we sat down. "so you said you vanted to get to know me better?"
"si! we just met last night and I wanted to know a little more about you..." wow. that sounded weird... "vell vhat do you vant to know?" I though about it for a sec "well... you've met my brother do you have any family?"
"yes I have a brother named Gilbert he's different and annoying but he's my brother I tolerate him" I laughed at how he said Itoleratehim! "vhats so funny!" I stopped laughing for a sec so I could answer him " you said you could tolerate your brother! don't you love him?"
"ja but most if the time he's a real ass!" I smiled at him and said "Maybe I could meet your brother someday?"
"ja sure, as long as he's not drunk..." I wonder if Ludwig's brother is anything like my brother. I hope not... I love my brother but 1 Lovino is enough... unless your Antonio, then it would be a dream come true! I suddenly realized that I had stared off into space and Ludwig was trying to get my attention "Feliciano?"
"si!"
"since you asked me a question may I ask you a question?"
"sure! you can ask me anything you want!" I saw him think about it for a second "vhat do you like to do?" that was an easy question! "I like to play with my cat pookie, paint, make pasta and play football! what do you like to do?"
"I like exercising und training, playing with my 3 dogs, und I guess I also like football" I smiled at this he also likes to play football! awesome! "maybe we could play sometime?" he smiled at this and said "ja I vould love too" I like his smile... he looks so nice with that smile on his face! I how its there forever!

Me and Ludwig had been talking for a few hours and I saw that the sun had gone down and the stars were out "its getting late... maybe we should go back?" Ludwig's face looked a little sad when I said this "ja... ve probably should..." he stood up and offered his hand to me. I took his hand, stood up, and we walked back to the car... we walked the entire way like that in comfortable silence. I think I finally understand now... I really do like Ludwig! a lot! and I feel so happy walking with him holding his hand. we finally reached the car and he opened the door for me and I sat in the passengers seat thinking about what could possibly happen with Ludwig and me!
::time skip::
we finally got back to my house and we were in front of my door. I was about to say good bye when Ludwig said "um Feliciano?" I looked at him "si Ludwig?" he looked a little nervous when he said I vas vondering if maybe we could do this again?" he wanted to go out again? yes! wait? why aren't I saying this put loud! "si! I would love to! just call me when you want to hang out OK?" he smiled at me as if he was shocked by my answer "ja see you next time then!" he turned around and was about to leave "wait!"
"vhat? vhats wrong?" I closed my eyes and kissed him. it only lasted for a second but it felt like forever! but after that second I pulled away (not giving him a chance to kiss back!) and ran inside and shut the door behind me. what did I just do? and why did I like it so much?
(Author'snote: in case there is any confusion by football Italy means soccer. America is really the only country who calls it soccer... thanks for reading!)
