Gilbert got a hold of Lovino, he was able to bribe him in order to get some wine from his grandfather's basement. What he couldn't do was talk him into teaching him how to cook something, so now the day before Valentines day he was hiding in the kitchen late at night practicing cooking. So far the only thing he could make were German dishes heavy with meats and potatoes, none which tasted well with the sweet white wine. He growled and tossed more food in the trash. He grabbed his car keys and ran out the door.

He was going to cheat on this romantic dinner, he was going get some frozen pasta dish and just claim that he made it. It was late and he was careful to drive carefully, he was out past curfew. Gilbert made it to the store, he grabbed one of those shitty plastic baskets and wondered around. He grabbed some microwavable meals, the expensive ones because the cheep ones taste like wet cat food, and tossed them into his basket. He grabbed candles and even bought a romantic movie (it was on sale). He wondered around a bit longer to see if there was any thing else he needed, not just for this date but around his house as well.

He was out of razors. He felt his face, along his jaw and chin, he was getting a little scruffy, it was so harsh feeling almost like sand paper, unlike Ludwig who for some reason or another had very soft facial hair. Sighing he walked to the other side of the store and grabbed his brand, he tried to keep his gaze forward but it was hard. It was such a odd place to keep condoms, who thought putting next to the razors was a good idea. He couldn't help but to look. Why were there so many different kinds. "What the hell...why do they have flavors? What the fuck does ribbed mean? There's different sizes...how the hell do you even figure out how to buy a box?" He asked himself, staring at them.

A little bit nervous, Gilbert looked down the aisle to see if there was anyone around. Empty, it was only him, he quickly reached out and grabbed a box, just to get a closer look. He was so nervous holding it, what if someone saw him, what if they got the wrong idea. He skimmed the back of the box, checking again to see if he was alone. With his heart pounding he threw the box into his basket and quickly fled from the aisle. He went thought the self check out, he did not want to interact with anyone. Afraid that someone would have to give the clear for the condoms, he didn't scan them he simply tossed them into the bag and he practically ran to his car.

Every fiber of his being wanted to speed home, but he was still out past curfew. Driving slower then normal Gilbert went back home. He put the food he bought away and the box of condoms he kept in his hand

Tried and still nervous he went to the room he shared with Ludwig. The bed room window was wide open, which he found strange he knew it had been closed when he left. His younger brother would not have opened the window himself, not with the air on inside the house. Gilbert closed the window and looked over at Ludwig's bed, it all made since then. The bed was lumpier then normal, and there were clothes way to small to be either of theirs. But the biggest sign of them all was the head of brown hair.

The only question he really couldn't answer was how the hell Feliciano got to their house. It wasn't like he could drive nor did he live close by. He wondered if he had been hiding in the house earlier, or if he had been there while he was cooking in the kitchen. Gilbert's cooking was loud enough that he wouldn't have been able to hear Feliciano crawl in or crawl out of anything.

A little annoyed that Lugwig had his boyfriend staying the night, without even asking him about it first, Gilbert grumbled and crawled into bed. He flipped over so his back was facing them, he slid the condoms underneath his pillow before falling asleep. In the morning the window was open again and Ludwig's bed was flat and made. There wasn't a single wrinkle in the blankets. Gilbert got out of his bed and made it, making sure that the box was still safely hidden under his pillow.

He dressed himself in something nice and clean, shaved his face while his brother ate with their grandfather, the news was playing on the TV in the background. Staring at his reflection he took a deep breath. It was Valentines, tonight Matthew was coming over, it would just be them. His grandfather had plans and Lugwig was having his own Valentines date with Feliciano. Just him and Matthew together, alone with frozen pasta dishes, wine, and a romantic movie to watch and cuddle to.

Washing his face he felt along his jaw and face to see if he missed any spots. There were still some spots that were scratchy feeling so h went back over them and nicked himself. Hissing it bled just a little bit and he pressed his thumb on it to get it to top. When it did he washed the blood away and went out to get something to eat before school.

After finishing his breakfast he cleared his place at the table and grabbed the keys to his car. "Luddy are you coming to school with me or do you want to take the buss. Oh and you have something on your neck that you might want to take care of before you go anywhere." Gilbert pointed out and Ludwig quickly covered his neck and went to the bathroom. Laughing to himself Gilbert walked out the door after tossing his bag over his shoulder.

Starting his car he tossed his bag into the passenger seat, knowing if Ludwig were to join him he would the bag himself. After a minute Ludwig walked out of the house his face still red, he kept walking past Gilbert's car, and he didn't stop he just kept going all the way to the buss stop. Gilbert drove past him and waved.

At school Matthew was waiting for him at the front door. "Gilbert what are we doing for valentines? My dad and Libby are staying home tonight so if we go to my place we won't get any alone time really. I tried asking Liz what you had up your sleeve but she wouldn't say. I kinda need to let my dad know where I'm going to be tonight." Matthew said holding his cell phone out.

"We're going to my place we will have the whole house to ourselves. I'm making dinner and I got some wine from Lovino and a movie and..." He stopped, he didn't want to say anything about the condoms just yet. After all things have been a little awkward between them, especially after Matthew tried to take things further. Gilbert took a breath, that wasn't going to happen this time around. He didn't feel as nervous any more, he wondered how much could actually go though with before getting to nervous again.

Matthew typed something into his phone and sent it "Thanks Gilbert, I'm really looking forward to seeing you tonight...I hope you don't mind but I got you something." He said and smiled. They kissed each other quickly before heading to their classes.

Matthew smiled and was daydreaming all though class, he could barely contain himself, all he wanted was the school day to be over so he could go home and change and then spend as much time on valentines as he could with his boyfriend. It wasn't like it mattered to him what they did, he was just glad to spend some time with him. His heart was pounding inside his chest, he wanted to know what Gilbert had planned, there was a 'and' that never was followed up on.

Things have been a little different between them since Christmas, he wanted to fix that, he wanted to be able to have Gilbert feel comfortable around him again. That was all that he really wanted from this date night. He wanted to sit down and talk with Gilbert, learn more about him, and get a better idea on his boundaries. Matthew wanted to make sure that he never made things uncomfortable for him again.

He stared down at his blank school assignment, he then glanced around the room. He could see that he wasn't the only one who was caught up on other thoughts. One girl's face was mostly hidden by her hair but he could see her eyes and they were blinking a lot as she fought back tears. Another was showing the roses her boyfriend got her to her friend. One boy was complaining about how Valentines was a fake holiday, another was telling him to shut up.

The teacher was eating candy from a box and complaining about how someday none of the things they cared about now they wouldn't in the future, things such as who is dating who and popularity would since to matter. But the same thing could be said for adults, who is getting married and who isn't, and how the ass kisser got a raise at work.

Rolling his eyes, he stared over at the clock. Tick, tick, tick, it felt like it was moving slower then normal. The day had barely started and it felt like would never fully begin at this rate. Matthew wanted it to be over, he had no desire to be trapped at school when he could be doing much better things. The rest of his classes went the same way, slow almost painfully slow.

When the school day finally came to a end he rushed home. He undressed out of his school clothes and got into he shower, he spent forever in there letting the steaming hot water pore down on him. The mirror and window fogged up and the room became very humid. He felt so relax in there. He when was done the tips of his fingers were wrinkled and his skin was red from the heat of the water. He cooled down and dried off before changing into something more date appropriate. Fixing his hair he tried to find away to pass time until Gilbert came to pick him.

Meanwhile Gilbert was setting things up for his dinner with Matthew, the table was made and the candles were set up but not lit. He readied the dishes to make it look like he actually cooked them, he didn't want Matthew to know that he cheated on dinner. He kept the wine hidden, his grandfather was taking longer to leave then he thought he would. Gilbert began to get fidgety, he wanted to get the wine chilled so it wouldn't be warm when he served it. At least his grandfather left, mumbling a goodbye. Gilbert watched him until he was out of sight before moving the wine into the fridge.

Smiling he grabbed his own car keys and went out the door. Traffic was horrible, everyone was trying to get everywhere to be with someone or at least that's what it felt like. It felt like it took him twice as long to reach Matthew's house, his boyfriend came flying out the door and over to his car. Gilbert unlocked his door for him. "I have a big night planned for you." Gilbert told him and Matthew smiled over at him.

"I can't wait." He leaned over and kissed him softly, the kiss was returned before the car started moving again. When they finally returned to Gilbert's house he had Matthew take a seat on the couch so he could finish prepping for dinner. He placed the food onto the plates, filled their glasses with wine, and lit the candles. Dimming the lights he walked out to Matthew and took his hand and led him to the table. Pulling out Matthew's seat Gilbert smirked at him.

Matthew sat down and stared down at the plate. "Gil did you cook this, it looks really good." Matthew said, Gilbert smirk grew wider when he heard how shocked Matthew sounded. Were his cooking abilities really that bad that his boyfriend questioned him. I mean it was justified, seeing that he didn't actually cook anything tonight. He sat across from his boyfriend and raised his glass over at him. Laughing softly Matthew took his own glass and tapped it against Gilbert's. "I'm guessing that this real wine. How did you convince Lovino to give you a bottle. He doesn't just hand those out."

"Lots and lots of begging so drink up." He laughed and brought the drink to his lips and took a small sip and lowered the drink. The wine did not taste like he thought that it would or maybe it was the fact tat he had never drank any thing but beer before. Matthew on the other hand looked like he has had wine before, he was sipping it down as if it wasn't the worst thing ever. Gilbert left his wine alone, he did not like the taste it was like rotten grapes with a shit ton of sugar added to it.

Gilbert didn't even touch his plate yet, was looking to see Matthew's reaction to it first. Matthew took a bite and looked unfazed by it. Gilbert quickly took a bite, he wanted to see if it was any good. You could tell that it was a frozen dinner, it was bland and somewhat tasteless, it just happened to look nice and that was all. He was highly disappointed. "I'm sorry Chickadee...I really did try to cook you something but nothing was turning out. I only know how to make German food." He confessed.

Matthew laughed and swirled the pasta around his fork. "Its alright Gil but next time make the German food I would love to try it some time." He smiled and Gilbert went red ear to ear. They spoke very little though the rest of dinner. Afterwords Gilbert went in and put the movie in. He could care less about the movie, he just wanted an excuse to make a move on Matthew.

With his heart beat pounding in his ears due to nerves he glanced over at Matthew. "Hey Matthew." He said and when Matthew looked over at him, he kissed him. Matthew seemed shocked at first but he took had a hold of Gilbert's shirt pulling him in for more. The kissing turned heated very quickly, Gilbert felt hot. Matthew was on top of him, his tongue, his hands, everything about him was causing his head to spin like mad.

Suddenly Matthew stopped and eased off of him. "Gil maybe we should stop right here...your starting to get hard." Matthew said his voice was quite and out of breath.

"No...I don't want you to stop. Just...just could we move to the bedroom." Gilbert's whole face was red with color. Matthew sat up and stared at him in surprise.

"Wait are you sure you want to keep this going? We don't have to...you don't have to." He said and got off the couch. Gilbert climbed off and grabbed him by the wrist and lead him to the bed room. He eased Matthew down onto the bed and kissed him just like how Matthew would kiss him. Slowly he moved Matthew down so that he had him on his back.. Gilbert then kissed along his neck. "Gilbert what's gotten into you...you're not normally like this."

Gilbert kissed him and smirked. "I want to do this with you...because I know that if I say 'stop' you will. I feel safe with you knowing that." He said and kissed his mouth a few times. Matthew wrapped his arms around him and arched into him.

They kept making out like that for awhile, rolling around the bed and carefully feeling each other up. Gilbert slipped his hands underneath Matthew's shirt and pulled it off over his head. Matthew could feel his heart inside his chest pounding against his ribs. He couldn't believe that this was actually happening, he didn't know if he should be nervous or excited, he was actually both. He closed his eyes and felt Gilbert kiss the side of his neck, behind his ear, and he could feel his hands on his skin. Matthew moved his arms above his head, one hand slipped underneath the pillow.

The tips of his fingers touched something, so he grabbed it to see what it was. "Gil...did you plan on going all the way?" He asked, staring at the condom box. Gilbert looked up from kissing and let out a scared little yelp sound as he grabbed the box from Matthew's hand.

"No...its not like that." Gilbert said as he started to explain. He couldn't say anything as Matthew placed his hand over the box and kissed him.

"Its okay if its like that Gilbert...but unless you have some lube around there's no way your getting it in." Matthew teased and rolled Gilbert under him. He already had a idea that Gilbert didn't have any lube, he figured that Gilbert knew little to nothing on how gay sex worked. Matthew didn't know if he could teach him everything, he didn't even know everything, but the least he could do was show him a thing or two.

He moved his hair behind his ear and took Gilbert's shirt off. "Matt what are you doing?" Gilbert asked his voice going a bit higher then normal. Matthew chuckled and kissed him and went down his chest and stomach.

"Open that box up for me and give me one." Matthew said and Gilbert tore open the box with his hands shaking with excitement. He handed one of the wrapped up condom to Matthew and he perked himself up onto his elbows to see what Matthew was doing. Matthew set the condom down next to them for just a moment as he unbuttoned Gilbert's pants and unzipped them. Matthew looked up at him and moved back up so he could kiss Gilbert's mouth. "Gil this isn't too much is it?"

Matthew's hand moved down between Gilbert's legs and over the top of his briefs. He was met with a surprised but pleasant moan. "Matt...please...keep going." He gasped and Matthew smiled. He pulled Gilbert's pants down to his knees along with his underwear. He opened the condom and he slid it onto Gilbert. "Wait what are you doing?" He asked.

"If its alright with you...I was going to give you a blow job." Matthew said, kissing his hip. Gilbert bit his lower lips and nodded his head. Matthew looked at him and kissed the head of his erection, he went down the side of his shaft and kept teasing him. He watched Gilbert and it was hard to keep from laughing at him. Gilbert was one of those 'what do I do with my hands' type. He looked stuck on if he wanted to touch him or keep his hands to himself. "Your welcomed to to touch my hair as long as you don't push my head down we should be fine."

Gilbert was hesitant at first, until Matthew started sucking on the head. He grabbed his hair, trying not to pull on it or push his head down. But he couldn't help but to make noise, he didn't think that he would be making as much noise as he was. Matthew's head bobbed up and down, he was sucking and teasing him. "Fuck...oh fuck." He moaned and laid back and grabbing his own hair.

His chest moved up and down as he breathed heavily. Matthew took most of him in his mouth, in all honestly he thought Gilbert would have came already, he stopped sucking for a moment to return to kissing Gilbert. He wrapped his hand around him and rubbed him. Gilbert moaned into the kiss. Matthew kissed his neck and nipped at his ear. "I love you." Matthew told him as he went back down on him.

It didn't take much longer for Gilbert to come, he was loud and shaky and blushing. "Matt...holy shit...holy shit wow." He panted and Matthew laughed and laid next to him. They didn't get to relax for long, sadly enough. The door to the house opened and his grandfather called out in German. They both flew of the bed. Gilbert peeled the condom off and quickly pulled his pants and everything up. "Shit, hide, he's coming this way. He didn't know I was having anyone over!"

"Where am I going to hide, there's no closet and I can't fit under your bed." Matthew whispered and they could hear the footsteps drawing closer. Desperate Matthew got down on the floor and tried to squeeze his way under the bed, he only made it one third of the way so Gilbert quickly tore the blankets off his bed so they were covering the rest of his boyfriend.

The door opened. "Gilbert...I am going to bed try to keep it down. You're not being clever I know he's in there...you forgot to turn the romance movie off." His grandfather said and closed the door. Matthew pulled the blankets off of himself and stood up. He laughed and sat down, of all the things that they got caught for it was leaving some movie that they didn't even watch playing.
