Chapter 2: I Hate Maths...
It was finally the last session of the day but Feliciano was not too happy about it. "The last class of the day just had to be maths. At least having Elizabeta and Kiku in the same class could make it a little easier," thought the young Italian as he entered his maths classroom with his two new friends. "Veh~! Kiku, let's sit at the back," Feliciano pleaded to his Japanese friend.
"Sorry, Feliciano. I'd rather sit at the front to stay closer to the board so I can take notes," explained Kiku who noticed his friend's cheerful mood drop as soon as he said the statement, "Maybe you could sit next to Elizbeta for this class?"
Elizabeta nodded in agreement, "No, it's ok. I won't leave you alone after you accompanied me for the whole day. I guess I should at least try to take good notes since I'm so bad at math."
"And I'll be glad to help you any time Feliciano," added Kiku.
"Veh~! Thanks, Kiku," thanked Felicano.
Suddenly, some students rushed into the classroom and took their seats. Elizabeta, Feliciano and Kiku sat together at the front with Feliciano in the middle of the trio. Then, the door opened and a large man with slicked back blonde hair and blue eyes walked in. Some gasps could be heard across the classroom. Feliciano could hear a few students whispering behind him,
"I heard that he's Coach Beilschmidt's little brother!"
"No way! That guy could easily beat the coach!"
"Crap, as if maths wasn't scary enough..."
The blonde man began to introduce himself with a thick German accent that laced his voice, "I'm Ludwig Beilschmidt, your maths teacher for this semester. This course will be really easy. All you need to pass is..."
Feliciano tried to pay attention to what the man was saying but, damn, even he had to admit that he was a little intimidating. Was it just him or was the teacher in question was really...well...handsome? Wait what was he thinking? Mr. Beilschmid was tall, taller than his brother, with broad shoulders. It seemed he work out. He was also blond. His face was marked with a grim, serious expression but he had those amazing pools of bright blue.
Feliciano snapped out of his thoughts when Elizabeta asked him, "Can we be in the same team then?"
"Uh, sorry. I wasn't paying attention," Feliciano gave a sheepish chuckle.
Kiku noticed the conversation going on next to him and decided to help, "Mr. Beilschmidt said that the project for tomorrow could be done in groups so we could work together."
"Veh~! Great! If you want, we can meet at my home!"
Mr. Beilschmidt stopped writing the complicated equations on the board, turned around and stared straight at Feliciano, "Please discuss that later, kids."
Feliciano felt his face warm up significantly at that moment, "Veh~! Sorry, it won't happen again!" Mr. Beilschmidt then continued on with the rest of the gruesome, brain-wracking, difficult harsh lesson (isn't that how all maths lessons go?). The trio remained silent during the rest of the lesson. Feliciano diligently wrote whatever the teacher said even there were many thing he couldn't get but decided he would his best. "Maybe maths isn't that bad after all..."
~OwO~
At exactly two o'clock, Feliciano said goodbye to his new friends and rushed trough the halls to find his older brother. "I didn't see him even get to see him during lunch. I hope he had just a good first day like me," thought Feliciano as he wandered through the halls. When he turned a corner, he crashed into someone, something or whatever it was, and fell to the floor. He attempted to stand up while carressing his head. "I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to..."
The other person cut him off, "I'm okay. You shouldn't be running in the halls though." Feliciano looked up and saw none other than Ludwig Beilschmidt.
Feliciano didn't know what to say at first, "I-It won't happen again! Please, forgive me! Veh~!"
"You're one of my students, right?" Ludwig asked. Feliciano gave him a confused look. How could he remember him, not that he minded at all, it was just his first day, "Sorry. It's because of your tic that I recognised you."
"Is that so? Veh~!" Feliciano covered his mouth with a hand which conveniently hid his sudden blush.
"Oh, there's nothing wrong with it. It just makes you kind of unique," the teacher said this while being a tad bit embarrassed of himself.
"Um, okay. " said the little Italian who felt as if his face was on fire right about now.
"Just be a bit more careful, okay?" Mr. Beilschmidt said.
"Yes, sir!" Then, Feliciano went off to find his brother. "I'm so glad I got to see him one last time, and he likes my tic. Wait, what am I thinking?" The young boy was so girly at times...
He then found Romano who was standing outside where Arsenius had left them that morning. "Veh~! Fratello!" He ran over to his brother and asked, "How was your day?"
"None of your business," replied Romano stubbornly, "Now, you'd better tell me how you made it last period alive!" He may not show it, but he did care for his brother.
"Well, I made new friends and I didn't dislike all of my classes!" Feliciano happily replied.
"Yeah, whatever..." The big brother's concern has deactivated.
"Veh~! Look, Romano! There's grandpa! Let's go now!" The two ran over, Romano walked, to the red convertable which their grandfather drove.
~OwO~
Once they were at home, Feliciano was lying on the couch whilst waiting for his friends to arrive. It was around half-past four, the afternoon decided to be really hot so, he was falling asleep on the big comfy couch that was his grandpa's favorite. He could feel his eyes drooping ever so slowly. His mind wandered to different places until it came to his maths class and the good looking teacher. The light from the window made him look even more handsome. He could see the motion of his lips slowing down while explaining some math problem he would never understand.
He felt the urge to kiss those lips. When he was about to do so, he was hit in the head with a textbook. "Stupido fratello! There is somebody at the door asking for you!" Romano was standing over him with his ever-present scowl while holding a random textbook he got from god knows where.
Feliciano rarely got angry at his brother but he just had to ruin the good dream he was having! But, Feliciano didn't show his anger. Instead, he thanked him, "Thanks, Romano. I'll be right there."
It turns out that Kiku and Elizbeta were at the door. Feliciano lead Kiku and Elizabeta inside the house.
"Oi, idiot. Who're these bastards?" Romano asked whilst leaning against a wall and observing the shy Japanese man and the energetic Hungarian girl.
"Veh~! Romano, these are my new friends," he pointed to Kiku, "-this is Kiku-" he then pointed to Elizbeta, "-and this is Elizbeta!"
"Che." Was all that Romano said before he went back to his own room. Kiku and Elizbeta observed the behaviour and appearance of Romano before he walked away.
Elizabeta commented, "You and your brother are incredibly alike."
"Hah. Once you get to know us a little better, you may want to change your mind," was Feliciano's reponse.
Kiku was still admiring the interior of the house, seeing the detail in every centimeter of the place as an exotic piece of art."You have a beautiful house, Feliciano," said Kiku, who wished he had brought his trusty camera to take pictures of the wonderful house.
"Veh~! Thanks, Kiku! Grandpa Arsenius is into design and architecture so he decided to re-decorate the whole place as soon as he bought it!" Explained Feliciano, "Shall we begin doing the project? We can work in the living room!"
~OwO~
After a couple of hours, both Kiku and Elizabeta were almost done with their part of the project but Feliciano was going through a lot of trouble. "I just don't get this!" He threw his pen down at his book.
"It's not that difficult. Here, let me help you." Kiku moved closer to Feliciano to help him.
"Veh~! When I see you doing it, ir seems so easy! But once I start on my own, I just don't get where should I begin!" Feliciano was stressed and maths was known to stress people out.
Elizabeta and Kiku were already tired. Elizbeta suggested, "Maybe we can finish tomorrow during break. There are just a few problems left to solve."
"That's alright. It's been enough maths for today," Kiku sighed. Then, his cellphone rang. Suprisingly, his ringtone was the Pokemon theme. After he hung up, he announced, "I should go now. I still have to do an art project with..." He trailed off ever-so dreamily.
"Heracles," Elizabeta and Feliciano finished his sentence together.
"Veh~! It's ok, Kiku! But isn't it a little dark out?"
The Japanese boy was a little nervous, "He doesn't live too far from me."
"Oh, I see," said Feliciano with a sly grin on his face.
"It's not like that!" Kiku was now blushing like a school girl talking about hot guys.
"Kiku, don't be so serious about it! It was just a joke, right Feliciano?" Elizbeta explained as Feliciano nodded in return.
"Oh, sorry. Um, okay. Bye, Elizabeta and thank you, Felicano for letting us come over," said Kiku as he packed up his things. Feliciano accompanied his friend to the door.
"I should leave as well," said Elizbeta as she checked the time.
"Veh~! Wouldn't you like to stay and ask for a pizza or something Elizabeta? Grandpa Arsenius is coming home late tonight and Romano is at soccer training," explained Feliciano.
"I would be glad to," replied Elizbeta.
~OwO~
The two were watching a concert on the TV while eating freshly made pizza. "Veh~! Elizabeta?" Feliciano asked.
"Hmm?" Replied Elizbeta.
"Have you ever, er, had a crush on a teacher?" Asked Feliciano, avoiding Elizbeta's eyes.
Elizabeta choked on her pizza before answering, "Why?"
"Um, well, just asking," replied Feliciano.
"Well, I-I-I'll tell you something. Just don't tell anybody else, not even Kiku," pleaded Elizbeta. It seemed to be a big secret.
"O-ok." Feliciano was curious now.
"You see. Last semester, I joined the chorus not because I'm really good at it. I mean I like music and stuff but the real reason I joined it because of Mr. Edelstein. He's just so...perfect. He's talented, handsome and elegant. I'm so happy when I get to see him."
Feliciano sighed and said, "It's the same way I feel about Mr. Beilschmidt."
Elizabeta was bit shocked. This worried Feliciano. When Elizabeta noticed the embarrassment on the boy's face, she felt guilty. "I'm sorry, Feliciano. I didn't mean to offend you. I just thought you'd be into girls because you're so popular with girls," she explained.
"Oh, but, I do like girls. Just not in that way. Mr. Beilschmidt, he really makes the time stop when I see him. It's actually the first time I've ever felt this way about somebody else."
Elizabeta was taken aback by his friend's honesty. "It looks like we are into the same type of guy!" They burst into laughter and stopped when they heard the front door opening.
"Oi, Venziano, I'm home," announced Romano who had walked in. He was in his soccer uniform, a black sports bag hung at his side, "Idiot, did you make dinner?"
"Veh~! There's pizza in the kitchen Romano!" Romano dumped his bag near the enterance and walked into the kitchen.
"Now I get how you two aren't alike," commented Elizbeta. They started laughing again. It seems that Feliciano found confidence in talking to Elizabeta. You know how every time you fall for somebody, you need a person who would listen to you babbling about it all the time.
~OwO~
