CHAPTER THREE: AN UNEXPECTED MEETING ON A SUNDAY
June 27,2010
"Bruder, don't forget to lock the door if you leave" Ludwig reminded Gilbert while wearing some coat. "Where are you going?" Gilbert asked while playing some video games with Francis. "I'm going with Kiku, Feliciano, and Lovino to the library" Ludwig replied, now wearing his shoes. "Ve~ see you later Gilgil~" Feliciano hugged Gilbert before stepping out of the house. " Yesterday was fun, thank you very much" Kiku gave his thanks before following Feliciano outside the house. " Hmp. D-don't m-misinterpret me, I just went here for Feliciano and I'm just going with you,potato bastard, to the library because I have to do research myself!" Lovino explained as he pointed at the 'bastard', Ludwig. "Ja" Ludwig sighed. "Que te cuides" Antonio bid them good-bye. "Salut" Francis said concentrated with the game. "Kese see you guys later!" Gilbert waved at his brother and company. After they were out of sight, Gilbert closed the door and went back to his video game.
"Why the long face Gilgil?" Antonio asked while serving them juice. " That's the face of jealousy mon cher" Francis tried to explain. "W-was?! Of course not! I just envy them that they can make my little brother feel comfortable, they look so happy together" Gilbert defended. "Don't you think Ludwig thinks the same way?" Francis offered " Why would he?"Gilbert questioned, drinking some juice. " Well probably because you're more attached yo us, your friends, than to your own brother" Antonio giggled. "True" Gilbert agreed. "Say what, why don't we go outside and do something fun" Gilbert suggested standing up. "And what would that 'something fun' be?" Francis asked now closing the video game. "Why don't we go to an arcade?" Antonio suggested. " Then hook up some girls? " Francis asked his eyes sparkling. " Kese sure, we'd do that, now come on!" Gilbert said picking up some change of clothes.
"So where are we really going?" Francis asked while waving to some girls passing by. "Wherever my AWESOMENESS brings us" Gilbert said whistling at the girl that passed by. "Why don't we really go to an arcade?" Antonio suggested "Sure, then let's play some awesome games!" Gilbert said as he raced towards the arcade. "Gilbert! Wait!" Antonio and Francis shouted. "Run faster" Gilbert said looking at Francis and Antonio with a grin, then suddenly speeding up. "Uff" Gilbert fell on the ground "Hey watch where you're walking!" a long curly brown haired girl shouted, annoyed. "Hey I'm sor- Elizabeta?" Gilbert suddenly gasped, surprised of the unexpected meeting with his long lost friend "G-Gilbert?" Elizabeta said as shocked as Gilbert was "How are you? It's been a long time since we last saw each other!" Elizabeta exclaimed. "Yes, the last time we saw each other was when we-" "Ahem" Francis interrupted their little chat. "Mon ami won't you introduce us to the lovely lady?" Francis offered kissing Elizabeta's hand then winking. "Why you" Elizabeta said, mad, and was just about too hit Francis with a frying pan. God knows where she kept that humongous pan. "Elizabeta wait!" Luckily Gilbert grabbed Elizabeta's hand just before it hit Francis. "Oh sorry did it by instinct" Gilbert let go of Elizabeta's hand. "Woah scary" Antonio said, receiving a glare from Elizabeta and Gilbert. "What?" Antonio asked.
"Anyway Elizabeta, these are my friends, Francis and Antonio. Francis, Antonio, this is Elizabeta my ex" Gilbert said plainly. "EX?" Antonio and Francis gasped. "You had a girlfriend?" Francis asked stunned. "Ouch! What was THAT supposed to mean?" Gilbert asked, Elizabeta just chuckled. Gilbert glared at Elizabeta then, suddenly grinning "More like boyfriend actually" Gilbert mumbled "What did you just say?" Elizabeta asked, veins popping on her head and was just about to find her usual victim with her frying pan. " Well its true! You acted more manly than me on our younger days! I was quite shocked to learn you were a girl after you hit puberty! "Its not my fault you were weak! Besides I didn't know I was a girl back then either!" Elizabeta defended. "WHAT?" all asked, dumbfounded, Elizabeta shrugged.
After the shocking revelations, Francis and Antonio left the two to buy some ice cream.
"So where are you guys going?" Elizabeta asked while eating her ice cream. " We were just about to go to the arcade before you bumped onto us, how is Roderich by the way?" Gilbert asked licking Elizabeta's ice cream. "Vanilla taste good too, hnn?" Gilbert commented. "Oh Roderich is doing fine, Guess what!" Elizabeta replied eagerly. "What?"Gilbert asked, not that enthusiastic with whatever Elizabeta has to tell him. "Roderich just proposed to me! We're getting married this August!" Elizabeta exclaimed happily, suddenly jumping to Gilbert out of pure bliss. "Congratulations" Gilbert congratulated Elizabeta sincerely. "Too bad you can't have him anymore huh?" Elizabeta said letting go of Gilbert's body. "Kese not true, he still can't resist my AWESOMENESS!" Gilbert proclaimed, arms on his waist. "Oh really" Elizabeta giggled.
"Oh by the way, you know how to sew right?" Gilbert changed the topic. "Yes, why do you ask?" Elizabeta wondered. "Well you see I was planning on bringing a pet in the office, and I'm sure you know quite well that I can't bring pets in the office so I was planning on giving it a clothing that will make it go unnoticeable" Gilbert explained. " Is the pet big?". " Nein. Its this" Gilbert took the chick that was sleeping on his head. "Oh!" Elizabeta exclaimed "I didn't even notice it was hiding in your hair!" Elizabeta patted the yellow chick carefully to not wake it up. "Well thats the plan, but just in case, I wanted it to wear something close to my hair color just to make sure, do you think you can do it?" Gilbert asked "Sure, I'll try" Elizabeta was now measuring the chick carefully taking down some notes. "I'll try sending it to you tomorrow morning or do you need it sooner?" Elizabeta asked putting her measuring tools back in her bag. " No, no tomorrow morning is perfect! Thank you!" Gilbert said shaking Elizabeta's hand
"GilGil here's your ice cream" Antonio reached Gilbert his maple flavored ice cream. " What were you talking about when we were gone?" Francis asked. "Oh, Elizabeta is getting married with Roderich, a friend of mine" Gilbert replied licking his ice cream. "Oh Roderich mon ami?, congratulations!" Francis shook Elizabeta's hand. "Congratulations! so when is the wedding?" Antonio interjected. "Thank you, we are not yet sure about the exact day but it would be this coming August" Elizabeta giggled. "Oh, soon I see" Antonio commented. Elizabeta's phone suddenly rang. "Oh, Roderich's home! Got to go now! Pleasure meeting you guys! Bye Gilbert, go to our wedding ok?" Elizabeta kissed Gilbert in the cheek, like she was mumbling something in his ear. Elizabeta bid them all good-bye and left. "S-Shut up!" Gilbert suddenly shouted, his cheeks were burning red.
"What did she say?" Francis wondered "I-its nothing!, let's go to some bar!" Gilbert said avoiding to look at them, hoping they'll not notice his blush. "But I thought we were going to an arcade" Antonio whined. "Bah! My awesomeness won't fit there!" Gilbert stomped. "Let's just let Gilbert be, he's not in the mood" Francis comforted Antonio, who just followed Gilbert. 'Tch, this is not my day' Gilbert mumbled in his head while briskly walking with his head down, accidentally bumping into someone...again. 'tch, yep not my day'.
"Bruder?" Gilbert turned to the direction where he heard that familiar voice. "West?" Gilbert asked Ludwig who was staring at him intently. " Why are you beat red?" Ludwig wondered. "O-oh i-it's nothing" Gilbert said turning to hide his blush. " Darn it" Gilbert mumbled. " What is it?" Ludwig wondered, not hearing what his brother just mumbled. "Its nothing, are you done with your homeworks? Gilbert changed the subject. "Yeah, they left earlier than me, so where are you guys going?" Ludwig looked at all of them who were wearing almost the similar clothes, a fitted t-shirt, skinny jeans and chucks, Gilbert was also wearing a red bandanna on his neck "Oh we were planning on going to an arcade, but something happened" Antonio answered, pouting at Gilbert. "Hmph" Gilbert shrugged and ignored Antonio's pout. "Let's just go home, I'm tired" Gilbert pulled Ludwig. "Fine" Antonio whimpered. "Mon cher Antonio we can go to the arcade without Gilbert if you want" Francis comforted Antonio. Antonio beamed and pulled Francis to the arcade. It was an unexpected Sunday Afternoon.
Ludwig/ Germany's POV (Yay a pov of one of my favorite characters!)
I reminded my brother to lock the door before he leaves. I was going with Kiku, Feliciano and Lovino to the library to do some research and homeworks. Lovino was acting strong again and was calling me 'potato bastard' I just sighed. As all of us were ready to leave, Antonio, Francis and bruder bid us good-bye. As we walked away I would regularly take a glance and I would see bruder waving at us. As he was no longer within my sight I sighed. "What is it Doitsu?" "Oh, its nothing, I'm just worried, bruder might forget to close the door if ever they leave" . "Hmph. What is your brother, some one year old?" Lovino rolled his eyes. "He won't forget to lock the door Ludwig san" Kiku reassured me. I nodded and we continued walking. I suddenly sneezed. Kiku told me that someone probably remembered me. I don't know who would remember me so I thought that probably it was bruder, maybe he wanted some pancakes. I took a mental note to buy some ingredients before going home later.
Later in the library, Kiku was quietly doing his projects, I noticed that he was good at making miniatures. Lovino and Feliciano was regularly reminded by the librarian to keep their voices down. Lovino would regularly complain about his homework and so did Feliciano. However, most of the time Feliciano was not complaining but rather, he was singing some songs about how he wished his homework was about drawing instead. I was doing some research for my paper so I didn't bother reminding Feliciano and Lovino to just do their homeworks since I was busy myself.
After everyone of us finished our homeworks I excused myself to not eat lunch with them because I had to buy ingredients for bruder's pancakes. As I was in the grocery I saw bruder, he was talking to a long curly brown haired girl. I suddenly noticed him licking the girl's ice cream and the girl didn't even seem to bother! They seemed to be chatting happily. I didn't know what has gotten into me but somehow there was this pain in my heart which I decided to ignore. I took a glance at them again and now I saw the girl clinging to bruder happily, while bruder was patting her head. The pain in my heart came back again, more painful than awhile ago I decided to not bother them anymore but when I took a peak again I saw the girl giggling, they were chatting once again. I thought that I should- "Sir here is your change" I was suddenly back to reality as the cashier gave me my change. I left the grocery and decided to go home as fast as possible. Suddenly, bruder accidentally bumped to me. He was beat red. "West?" I heard bruder call me. I looked at him. I can't seem to talk to him about anything so I just decided to ask why he was beat red. He said it was just nothing and turned away. He suddenly mumbled something. I wonder what he mumbled. I asked them where they were going and Antonio complained about how they were planning on going to the arcade and bruder suddenly deciding to cancel it. Bruder just shrugged and pulled me. He demanded that we must go back home.
On the way home I tried to ask him who was the girl he was talking with. "Oh that was Elizabeta, remember her? She was a childhood friend. She is getting married with Roderich soon -sigh- Elizabeta was able to get married first before me hmm?" Bruder replied casually. When I heard the word 'getting married with Roderich' I suddenly felt relieved. I didn't know what the pain was about awhile ago, I decided that it was just probably envy that I haven't spent a lot of time with my bruder compared to his friends. I mentally slapped myself. How can I be so greedy of my own bruder.
When we arrived home I cooked bruder some pancakes and his usual smile was back again. We drank some beir and enjoyed ourselves at home. We played some games and watched the television. Sigh. How I missed this. How long has it been since the last time we actually bonded together alone without any of our friends?
