Warnings for - Uber Scary Nighttime Monsters! ...and foldout beds.

Crunch in the Night!

"I'm very sorry I don't have the guest room ready, I wasn't really expecting to be having visitors." Matthew apologized as he handed Feliciano a warm blanket. "Well, aside from my brother that is." He added.

"This is fine." Lovino said as he pulled the cushions off the couch so that he could pull the folding bed out.

"Grazie, Matteo." Feliciano said gratefully as he accepted the blanket. "We'll help you clean it tomorrow."

"Only if you want to." Matthew nodded with a smile. "I'm sorry I forgot about it until now. We were just so busy cleaning the yard that it slipped my mind entirely."

"Uh, hey, Matteo?" Lovino asked hesitantly.

"Yea?" Matthew replied as he looked over to the southern Italian.

"I'ma sorry I brokeh your fence. It was an accident.." Lovino apologized with a slight blush as he looked away, avoiding eye contact. Feliciano looked over to his brother, surprised. His twin almost never apologized to anyone about anything. This was new.

"I know it was. Don't worry about it." Matthew reassured kindly. "Do you two need anything else?"

Both Italians looked back to Matthew before shaking their heads.

"I think we'reh fine for the night." Feliciano said before returning the smile.

"Alright." Matthew nodded again. "Then, I think I'll get ready for bed, myself."

"Wait." Feliciano said, getting the Canadian's attention again. "Where's Alfred going to sleep? He can sleep with us, there's room."

Lovino snapped his attention to his bother and scowled. "No there's not! He's too big for this bed, he'll take up the whole thing! Or worse, he might squash us in our sleep!"

Matthew held back a laugh at that mental image before shaking his head. "Don't worry." He started as he directed his attention to Lovino before he could make his complaint any louder. "Alfie always sleeps with me, so he's already taken care of."

"You sleep with your fratello?" Lovino asked as he gave the Canadian a dubious look.

"Well, …yea." Matthew replied hesitantly as a light blush dusted his cheeks.

"We sleep together all the timeh, Lovi. It's not that weird." Feliciano said as he turned to grin at his brother.

"Who says I even want to sleep with you?" Lovino retorted as he grabbed the blanket out of his brother's hands.

"You don't want to sleep with me?!" Feliciano gasped. "Why? What did I do?"

Lovino let out a sigh as he unfolded the blanket and tossed it over the foldout bed. "Just shut up and help me out, would you?"

Matthew gave Feliciano a sympathetic smile before turning to leave the duo to their own devices. "Sleep well you two." He said as he walked away.

"Buonanotte, Matteo." Feliciano replied.

"Buonanotte.." Lovino said as well.

~(TS)~

"Hey, Feli." Lovino said as the two of them were laying in bed in the dark, trying to get to sleep.

"Hm?" Feliciano replied from the other side of the small bed. He had the warm blanket pulled up to his chin as he watched the shadows of the dark living room suspiciously.

"Did you know they were twins?" Lovino asked quietly. He also had the blanket pulled up to his chin. The still silence of the room was really creepy for some reason. Not that he was scared, of course.

"Who?" Feliciano asked.

"Alfredo and Matteo." Lovino elaborated. "Did you know they were twins?" There was a short pause before his brother answered.

"…You didn't know?" Feliciano asked confused. Lovino didn't respond to that. "How did you not know?"

"I don't know!" Lovino hissed quietly. "I just thought they looked similar, I didn't know they were actually twins…"

Feliciano smirked lightly and turned to look at his brother in the faint light. "I bet if they were pretty girls like Bella, you would've noticed." He teased.

Lovino flushed slightly at that. "Shut up.." He grumbled. The southern Italian then pulled the blanket roughly and turned over onto his side so that his back was facing his brother. Feliciano frowned at the response he had gotten before looking to the ceiling. His twin had a bad habit of ending conversations that way.

They continued to quietly lay like that as the minutes ticked by. The silence was finally interrupted when a car drove past the house, the headlights illuminating the shadows, making them dance against the walls. There was a sudden clatter from nearby followed by a startled yelp from Lovino as he quickly sat up.

"Did you see that!?" He exclaimed as he continued to watch a certain part of the room carefully, though it was now covered in shadows again.

"See what?" Feliciano asked as he sat up as well, catching the uneasy vibes coming from his twin.

"I saw something small run by over there." Lovino explained nervously.

"What was it?" Feliciano asked getting worried now as well.

"I don't know!" Lovino snapped. "It looked like a-" His sentence was cut off abruptly when one of the cupboards in the nearby kitchen banged shut making him and his brother jump slightly in alarm.

"M-Matteo..? Is that you?" Feliciano called out shakily. He received no reply, only the sound of something possibly heavy being dragged slowly from the kitchen towards them causing a scraping sound as it slid across the cold hardwood floor.

Lovino almost lost it when he felt himself being pulled to the side by his shirt. He then felt his brother wrap his arms around him before burying his face into his back out of fear. Lovino might have tried to shrug his twin off if he himself wasn't just as concerned at the moment.

The scraping noises finally stopped a few feet away from them, just behind the couch, it was then replaced by an odd crunching and crackling sound. Both Italians scooted closer to the middle of the foldout bed and brought the blanket around them for some sort of imaginary protection as they huddled together in silence listening to the disturbing sounds.

~(WMD)~

Sorry this half is so short. I actually had to break this chapter in to two because I felt it was too long. I write wayyy too much DX. (or not enough, you decide. lol)

Anyway! Who can guess what's scaring the Italies so badly?

Also, you know when Mattie said "Alfie always sleeps with me, so he's already taken care of." If you take away a few words, it starts sounding rather possessive. (Funny, I didn't realize it till I wrote it.)

Feel free to leave a review, if you aren't too busy that is~ lol
