THURSDAY MORNING: When the teacher is pissed off, act cute and show him your panties
Lovino fail humor and Antonio slight angst? I don't even know now T-T
Lovino had an uneasy sleep that the very moment that the sun peeked from the horizon, he jumped out of bed and prepared for school. Feliciano was still fast asleep and there wasn't breakfast yet so the elder Italian just went with an empty stomach. He peeped out of the gate cautiously for any sign of a certain Spaniard and sighed in relief when he found none.
He still can't face him, okay?
And so he run to their school because he is being careful. He will never know when and where will Antonio appear.
When he entered the classroom, he saw the creepiest thing he's ever seen in his life.
ELIZABETA.
ON THE TEACHER'S TABLE.
SETTING UP A HIDDEN CAMERA ON TOP OF THE BOARD.
Oh God why.
"Well, good morning, Lovino," the Hungarian greeted casually and continued doing her thing as if it is the most natural thing in the world.
"W-What the hell are you doing!" Lovino can't believe it. No, he just can't.
"Isn't it obvious?" she raised an eyebrow at him. "I'm setting up a hidden camera."
"B-B-But why?" the Italian shrilly asked.
"I have to know what mysterious events are happening in the classroom at all times, you know?" she jumped down the table and dusted herself. "Because who knows when things like this could be useful?" she added with a smirk as she showed Lovino a memory card from the camera.
The Italian tensed. "H-How long h-have you been doing that?" he asked timidly.
The Hungarian sneered. "You really wanna know?"
Lovino learned one thing about Elizabeta. She is one sneaky person you wouldn't want to mess with. And she works with the Japanese, Kiku so you wouldn't want to anger him either. And that it's not only their room which has a hidden camera. Right now, the Hungarian looks like a tiger ready to pounce.
"You know what, my dear Lovino?" Elizabeta said silkily. "I'm very hurt right now."
"W-W-Why is that?" Lovino asked, feigning ignorance as the Hungarian made him watch the video from the time that the whole class had a nosebleed outbreak and he was left alone with Antonio in the classroom.
"You see, I thought we were friends," she stressed out the last word dangerously. "So I thought you wouldn't keep secrets from me."
Lovino wanted to argue that maybe, only Elizabeta felt that way. But he chose to play low. "I'm sorry."
"Oh, are you really?" the woman snapped at him with glinting eyes.
"Y-Yeah," the Italian answered uneasily.
"So…"
"H-Huh?"
"What is between you and Antonio?"
"…Nothing."
"Then… care to explain this?"
And the Hungarian switched the video to the music room.
Fuck.
"I'm not really that angry, you know," she said in background as Lovino was forced to watch their yesterday kiss from bird's eyes view. "We are friends after all."
The Hungarian wiped her nose with a red handkerchief. Is it red on purpose or has it just turned red from blood? Lovino wouldn't want to know.
"As long as you give me these yaoi goodness, it's going to be fine by me," she continued. Her voice is shaking in creepy delight. "And of course, if you will tell me everything about it…"
The Hungarian's bargain was too one-sided. But Lovino doesn't have a choice, does he? And besides… maybe Elizabeta could give a good advice. After all, she knows about Lovino's crush for Bella as well. So…
After hearing out everything she could squeeze from the Italian, which is practically everything the Italian could tell, Elizabeta appeared to be thinking.
"So… right now, you think you and Antonio are on a tight spot. And you want to return everything to the way it was before yesterday?"
Lovino nodded weakly.
"You must be pretty desperate, asking for my advice and stuff…"
"Shut up. I really wanna weep right now," Lovino snarled, blushing scarlet.
"Don't worry, you are in very good hands~" Elizabeta said, unaffected.
From the disturbing happiness of the Hungarian, Lovino doubts whatever the 'good hands' she is talking about.
"But is he angry with you?"
"I don't think so…" the Italian answered thoughtfully. "He was also cold last Tuesday but yesterday morning, he acted like nothing was wrong."
"Then… why not wait for him to arrive and act like nothing is wrong again?"
See? Where is that 'good hands' now? Would Lovino be asking her advice if he thinks acting normal would truly help him?
"Well… I was thinking that maybe since we hadn't sorted out the misunderstanding last Tuesday, we just widened the gap yesterday…"
"Hmmm… you've got a point out there." She went to take something from her bag. She pulled out stacks of what appeared to be comics to Lovino from her not so big bag. It seems that women's bags really houses black holes. Elizabeta's seemed to have a bookstore.
"Not this… not this… not this…" she was saying as she throw out some Spamano doujinshis from her shoulder bag. Lovino, out of curiosity, opened one. (Incidentally, it was by HKR :p)
"My eyes!" he snapped the book close and tossed it away while covering his eyes with his free hand.
"Careful!" Elizabeta screeched as she catches it. "These are my darlings, you know!"
"T-T-That's w-weird!" Lovino stuttered. The Italian considered calling it 'sick' but the Hungarian would've killed him if he did.
Elizabeta scowled at him. "Says the guy who's dating another guy."
"I told you it was an accident!"
"And right now, you are asking for my advice to fix your problem," the Hungarian jeered. The Italian wanna ask, 'What advice are you talking about?'
Lovino scoffed. "Forget it." And he turned to move out.
"Wait up, Lovino, I've found it!"
The Italian paused walking and turned back grumpily. Elizabeta snorted.
"Look, this is the 'Sensei! Shimapan~' doujinshi (A/N: I don't think this exists)," the woman shoved the paperback at the Italian's face. "It's the tsundere-teacher love! It suits you best!"
"W-W-What the h-hell!" Lovino cursed. "Kill it with fire!" This whole scenario wasn't a good idea after all. Oh God have mercy on his soul.
The Hungarian pouted. "And here I am, trying to help but your ungrateful ass wants to burn my doujinshi."
Lovino sensed an impending storm. Oh no.
"I-I'm sorry but I just can't do that…"
"Why not?" the Hungarian asked him madly. Lovino just have to think of a very valid reason.
"Well… for one, I'm not wearing panties…"
"That can be arranged," Elizabeta simply said while grinning creepily. "Kiku!"
The Japanese man appeared out of nowhere.
NOOOOOOOOOO~~~!
I messed up again.
This was Antonio initial thought when he woke up that morning. He couldn't remove the image of Lovino's retreating back from his mind. He cursed himself for not pulling him back.
This was the first time he ever felt so lost in a relationship.
Before, all he does was to act sappy and sweet to the girls that he dates. He never gets a complain. Now that he thinks about it, everything was a repetitive cycle without any progress. But whatever. It was the BTT's pledge to please every person who needs them. It was optional for them to get thrilled on the process. Or in the Spaniard's case, to fall in love.
And then Lovino suddenly turned up and turned Antonio's merry-go-round to a rollercoaster ride. So now he's feeling dizzy.
Maybe because, in the very beginning, Lovino had a different agenda as any of his past dates. Maybe because, Lovino is a guy. Maybe because, Lovino likes somebody else.
He felt his heart clench at that.
He lazily rolled out of the bed, dropping on the floor. Now that really woke him up. He stood up and prepared for school.
He is living alone in a big house. His parents are rich, but they are often out of town. Antonio doesn't mind. He loves this freedom and independent lifestyle. He just ate toast for breakfast. He never bothers to prepare for lunch. Before, his dates often make homemade lunch for him. Now, he makes lunch for his date in the culinary room. See how different Lovino is?
At exactly 7:00, he will receive a message from Ludwig about Lovino's where abouts. By this time, the German had already fetched Feliciano from their house and the younger Italian would always blabber about his brother to him in the morning. The Spaniard commissioned Ludwig (since they are both in soccer team and Ludwig is the younger brother of BTT member Gilbert, the German easily agreed) to do this for him since Tuesday.
Fr: Ludwig
Sub: Lovino Vargas
Message: It seems he went
to school early and skipped
breakfast.
Somehow, Antonio felt that it was a good thing. He still doesn't know how to face the Italian. This way, he'd still have longer time to muster a cheery face to show his boyfriend. He grabbed a tomato from the fridge and wrote another silly note.
Another thing that's unusual about Lovino is his love for tomatoes. He also learned this from Ludwig. Which the blonde learned from Feliciano. While most girls would think it's better to have apple, Lovino never complained when he first gave him one. Which is a good thing, because the Spaniard also loves the juicy red fruit and even have a plantation for a backyard. How he wished he could show it to Lovino one day… Now that sounded like something from a lovestruck chick. He cast those thoughts aside.
And so, with his paraphernalia ready, the Spaniard couldn't delay going to school anymore.
While walking, he is thinking of how to break the ice between him and Lovino. He could act cute and coo at him like the usual. But that would just be like yesterday repeating itself.
He could be cool about it and act normal. But now that he think about it, he is normally acting cute and cooing at the Italian. So it's also a no-no.
Maybe he could be a bit cold this time… but isn't that asking for more distant atmosphere?
Well maybe he could just say sorry.
But what for? For kissing him?
No way. He doesn't want to.
Besides, he could just say that it was a part of his play. Though it's questionable now since he missed the chance of saying it like that yesterday when the Italian asked him.
Uhhh…
He reached their classroom door.
So what now?
He tried to go back but he spotted Bella walking towards him. It is also her classroom after all.
Well, there's no turning back now.
He opened the door-
"Buenos dia-"
"CHIGI!"
What a cute sound.
He looked up to see Lovino lying on the table, trying his best to pull his pants up as Elizabeta and Kiku forces him into a girl's uniform.
He felt something drip from his nose. He saw that it looks very much like blood.
"S-Sorry for disturbing you," he quickly said and with that he stepped out of the room as calmly as he can, slamming the door close.
Inside the room…
"Uhm… I guess this situation looks so wrong in many ways," Elizabeta whispered uneasily.
"I agree with Elizabeta-san," Kiku murmured.
"Wh-What am I g-gonna do now?"
"Well, since we are already at it, you can try to show his your panties…"
"#%$^*)*&%^()!"
TBC
Uhm. I know, his chapter isn't well written. Forgive me, my wisdom tooth is being a bitch with me right now T-T And also, I was hoping to upload earlier but I can't sign in. Again, sorry about that… Aaaand thanks for your song suggestions! I'll look for them…
