Lovino looks up at Antonio to see if he can tell what hes thinking but all he sees is a wonderful smile spread across Antonio's face.
Antonio says "really?" his smile falters for a second while he thinks but he regains it guick "but why be embarrassed?"
Lovino looks back at is hands. "well …. Um…." He sits there a while, thinking about what to say. He couldn't just tell Antonio he loves him, but if he says nothing Antonio might think he hates him. Lovino just looks at his hands, glad his hair is hiding his, probably, tomato red face.
Antonio puts his fingers under Lovinos chin and gently lifts it so he can see his face. "theres no reason to be shy. I wont laugh and whatever you say will stay between us, promise."
"but what if you hate me afterwards?"
"hate you? I could never hate you"
"so you say but how do I know that's true? How do I know that you wont just leave me alone again?"
"I swear I wont. Id never let that happen. I care about you Lovino, why cant you see that?"
"only more lies" a tear rolls down Lovinos cheek.
"no I swear im not lying. Ive never cared for anyone the way I do you"
"stop lying to me" Lovino stands and starts to walk away but Antonio grabs his arm and stops him. He turns Lovino around and kisses him. Antonio pulls back a slight blush on his face.
Lovino just stared at him in shock for a moment before his face turned brighter red than befoe and he turned and ran to one of the crews cabins. 'why'd he do that?' he thought 'could he really feel the same?' Lovino shook his head. 'no hes got to be messing with me. Theres no way he loves me. Hes always flirting with airls and ive always just been a friend to him.' Lovnino sat on the bed. He started crying. 'whyd he have to do that? Whayd he have to play with my feelings?'
