Chapter 4-
It's been five years and Raivis had done what Ivan had asked. He did not find another. There where many that wanted him from his country but each one he refused.
Raivis sighed softly as he looked down at the list. "Toris, why…?" He grumbled softly as he began to walk once more. The piece of paper lay crumbled in his pocket. The blonde walked through the crowded sidewalk and toward the market.
In the past five years Raivis had grown taller and got some abs on his stomach. His hair was longer and pulled back in a ponytail. If the blonde's hair were down, it would reach to his shoulders.
Giving another sigh he stared up at the sky as he walked. The clouds' where moving fast and it was apparent that it was going to rain soon. "I forgot an Umbrella," he mumbled. Picking up his speed he managed to get under the building of the market before it started to downpour.
Smiling softly at the accomplishment he turned and began to shop for the items on the list. Toris had told him that he wanted to make a feast for Raivis and Eduard, because it was Raivis's birthday. "20" he whispered not believing that he was this old already.
Shaking that thought away the blonde began to buy all of the things on the list. By the time he was done, he was carrying five bags each in his hand. "I should have bought Eduard or Toris with me," he whispered. Walking toward the exit he looked outside to see that it was still down pouring.
"Toris would be mad if I was late. Maybe I should brave the rain" he said with a nod and was about to leave when he noticed a shadow above him. He looked up to see a large umbrella. "It seems as though you are very busy" the voice said behind the umbrella.
Raivis recognized the voice and turned around his eyes wide. "I-Ivan…" he breathed tears coming to his eyes.
Ivan chuckled softly and kissed the blonde on the cheek, before taking five of the bags from him and held them in one hand, the umbrella in the other. "Shall we go?" he asked as he put the umbrella over both of them and made his way out of the building with Raivis quickly following.
"Y-Your back…" he choked back a cry as he looked up at the Russian that he loved so much.
"I couldn't miss your 20th birthday Raivis." He said with a smile, before he noticed that the blonde was looking down.
Raivis stopped and glared down at the ground. Ivan noticed this and also stopped. "Raivis, what is the matter?" he asked as he blinked down at him.
"Is that why you came back? Just so you couldn't miss my birthday? I had four other birthdays, and you missed all of them. Why the hell not this one?" he asked his anger rising as he stared down. He could feel tears coming to his eyes again as he stood there.
Ivan just stared at him, before he sighed softly. "I'm sorry that I was gone for so long. There where things I needed to do" he told him but he noticed that it was not helping. The Latvian was beyond pissed.
"I hate you Ivan. I HATE YOU!" he screamed before he dropped the bags and ran off tears rolling down is cheeks.
"RAIVIS WAIT!" Ivan yelled after him but it was muffled by a thunderclap. Ivan watched him run off, before he picked up the bags and quickly made his way back to Toris's house.
