AN: And I know I stopped updating...man..I gotta stop doing that. But anyway..here's the new chapter.
To those who reviewed:
Spamano4ever: ...Yeah, I could tell..
ThatRandomReview: Of course he is! That's what makes him our Lovi! And naturally...Toni would be there. But still, don't you believe that draws a bit more trouble?
Natalya. the. Awesome: Don't know...don't know what demigods are? You, my friend need to study some mythology! Demigods are the half-blood children of the Greek/Roman gods and a mortal! I won't go into it, because...yeah, just because..but my reasoning was very important, yes. It's a Percy Jackson thing...and yes, the last chapter was kind of a filler chapter. Had to happen in order for me to get to this point. Yeah..
Enjoy.
Lovino really was not in the best mood. He hated early mornings. He hated them even more when the first thing he comes upon in school is drama. When he showed up, a bit late from hanging back to make sure everything was back in order at home, it was to find Gilbert and Matthew arguing over something. Normally, that wasn't too serious. But this time, it was most definitely not their normal joking spat. This time, it was an actual arguement. Lovino dropped his bag and pulled Gilbert up and away harshly, giving Antonio a look that said to talk with Matthew in the meantime.
As soon as they were a good distance away, Lovino stopped and turned to look at the Prussian. "What the hell, Gil? You're arguing with Matt now?"he demanded. "What happened? I've never seen you guys not being sweet on each other."
Gilbert held his hands up in surrender at the glare that Lovino had him fixed with. "Sorry, my bad."he grumbled.
Lovino caught him when he went to walk away. "What happened."
There was no way out of this, Gilbert realized. As such, he spoke. "Nothing."he said softly. "It's like with Toni and you. I tried to defend him when someone said something about him to where I could hear, and he went off about it. Sorry. I'll fix it, just let me go."
Lovino gave him a searching look before he pushed Gilbert back. "Fine. But don't argue over stupid shit this early in the day. It'll ruin everyone's day, because you two are the ones who are always happy and trying to ease the tension."
Gilbert nodded and returned to his seat.
When Matthew looked away from him, Gilbert spoke softly. "Mattie..."
Lovino sat down beside Antonio and huffed, glowering at the two.
Antonio took one of his hands, but remained silent.
It took a while, but by lunch, Gilbert had managed to talk Matthew into forgiving him and things went back to normal again. It let the entire group relax again.
Toris spoke softly. "So. This weekend. What's the plan?"he asked.
Antonio spoke up then. "Well...there's a festival going on in the town square. We could go to that or something."he said softly.
They spoke over it for a moment before they agreed.
Lovino still hadn't said anything as to if he would go or not, though. Antonio looked at Lovino then to find the Italian chewing his bottom lip in thought.
Feliciano spoke up. "Lovi? Aren't you coming with us?"
Lovino looked at his brother. "I'll have to meet you guys there...I have to work the day of the festival. It'll be overtime in the restruant due to the large amount of people in town and stuff."
Antonio sighed. "I really wish you'd let me help you and Feli..."he said softly.
Lovino shook his head. "No."he said. "Not happening."
Feliciano pouted. "But you'll be there?"
Lovino nodded, smiling at his brother. "Of course, idiota. I wouldn't miss it. I'll meet you guys sometime around one, after I get off and changed and everything."
While the others were hesitant to go without Lovino, the elder Italian insisted on it. As such, not wanting any arguments, they agreed to it.
The group spent the rest of their lunch, as well as most of the walk home, figuring out exactly what they were going to do at the festival.
About halfway home, Antonio snuck up on Lovino, who was looking up at the sky in thought. Ludwig noticed and went to say something, but thought better of it and watched.
Antonio grinned, picking Lovino up in a hug and making the Italian squeal in surprise.
"Toni! Put me down!"
Antonio laughed softly, and Lovino was smiling softly as well.
As soon as he was back on his feet, Lovino stole a kiss, then rolled his eyes. "Idiot."
"Oh, you know you love me."Antonio said softly.
Feliciano smiled softly at the scene.
It was just a normal day for the group. They were used to the randomness that came with Antonio and Lovino's relationship. It was something all of the couples in the group had. It's what made them a bit more unique.
And here you go.
