Sorry about the major fuckery that was last week's update, guys. Not sure what happened, but Dogs said it happened to her too. But here is the new chapter! On time, even!

Feliciano dragged his brother all the way to the cafeteria, his happy mood completely restored. "Veh veh~! Kikuuuuuu~! Luddy~~~! Guys~!" he called cheerfully, rushing over to the group's usual table. Once he was close enough, he flung Lovino into Antonio's waiting arms, then jumped on his boyfriend, hugging him tightly and nuzzling him, gigging in delight.

Lovino yelped in surprise as he caught himself. "Dammit, Feliciano! What the hell was that for?!"

Antonio hugged the Italian, smiling brightly. "Hola, Lovi~!"

"B-Bastardo! G-Get the hell off me!"

Feliciano giggled, tightening his grip on the German vampire. "Luddy~."

Ludwig looked down and blinked, "Er…. Ja….?"

"How are you~~?" Feliciano cooed up at him, a bright smile on his lips.

"Fine… Uh... What about you..?"

"I'm wonderful~! Hey! Hey, Luddy guess what~!"

Ludwig raised an eyebrow. "What….?"

Feliciano's face changed from happy to blank in less than a second. "Um... I forgot..."

"Oh…. Er... I see…."

"Veh~! Maybe I'll remember it later~!" the Italian chirped.

"J-Ja…."

Meanwhile, Lovino was still trying to squirm out of the hug. "G-Get off me, bastardo!"

"Aww, but I like hugging you, Lovi! You're just so nice and huggable~!" Antonio said, holding the struggling boy closer. "And you're just so cute~!" The Spaniard sat down, pulling Lovino onto his lap. "Tan lindo~."

"I'm going to get food~!" Feliciano sang happily, taking his boyfriend's hand and skipping to the line, giggling the entire way.

"S-Shut the hell up dammit and let me go!"

"Come on, Lovi! Let me love you!" Antonio whined. "Please? Por favor?"

"NO!"

"Por favor~?"

"HELL NO, DAMMIT!"

"Por favor~~?"

"NO! GO AWAY BASTARD!"

"Te amo~."

Feliciano returned, Ludwig in tow. "Hey, fratello? How long until Christmas break?" he asked, setting his tray down and sitting, missing entirely the tense atmosphere and angry aura radiating from his twin.

"What kind of damn question is that….? Look at a damn calendar….." Lovino grumbled, still glaring daggers at Antonio.

"No no! I really need to know right now and fratello is smart and knows stuff like that because I don't because I forget stuff and so he remembers important things for me because I forget them but I think I already said that but I don't remember~!" Feliciano chirped, smiling brightly.

"W-Well I don't remember it either alright?! L-Look in the damn school book!"

"School book...?"

Alfred laughed. "The planner thingy, bro!"

"Oh~! But... I lost that the first day... Does anybody else know?" Feliciano asked, looking at the others.

Lovino groaned and head-desked. "Dumbasses….."

"It begins next week. Wednesday," Ludwig spoke up.

"Wow~! We get from the eighteenth till the sixth~! That's so long~!" Feliciano squealed excitedly.

"Feli, how can you not remember the day of the week we start break, but you remember the exact length of time we'll be gone for?" Gilbert asked.

"Because that's how the dumbass' mind works. Don't bother questioning it," Lovino commented as he started eating.

"Veh~." Feliciano smiled and began to munch on his own food.

"Lovino-kun….?" Kiku asked with a raised eyebrow. "Why is your bag moving?"

"Huh…? What the hell are you talking- GIO! What the hell are you doing, you little bastard?!"

There was a soft mew from the bag and Gio popped out, tumbling towards the floor. Alfred caught the kitten before he could get hurt. The tiny animal whimpered softly and curled up in the merman's hand, his ears laying flat to his head, his eyes downcast and sad.

"Gio…..? Hey…. What's the matter….?" Lovino softly asked as he gently took the kitten back.

Gio mewed softly again, curling up tighter, a soft whimper escaping him.

"Oh! I know!" Feliciano said, jumping up. "He's lonely! He misses Gino!"

The kitten whimpered sadly.

Lovino sighed and gently scratched behind the kitten's ear. "Don't worry, dammit…. We'll be home soon and you can see your fratello then… Alright?"

Gio weakly licked Lovino's fingers, his eyes filled with longing to return to their home.

Then the bell rang.

"Dammit…. Guess it's back to class then…." Lovino grumbled as he petted Gio.

"Veh, don't worry, Gio," Feliciano cooed, gently scratching the kitten's ears. "We'll be home before you know it. Try to sleep to make the time go faster, si?"

"Si…. Just sleep it off, dammit."

With a final, sad mew, Gio crawled back into Lovino's bag and curled up.

"Aww. Poor bambino. I hope the rest of the day goes fast so we can all go home and Gio can see Gino. I bet Gino misses him too," Feliciano commented.

Lovino glanced at the bag then at Antonio. "How quick do you think you can get me back home and back to school without people noticing?"

Antonio thought for a minute. "Maybe halfway through next period."

Gilbert snorted. "The Awesome Me could easily make a distraction for that long. Right, Fran?"

"Oui~~. Gilbert is ALWAYS good at distractions~~."

"Damn right! Let's go, Francy-pants! We have a major distraction to make!" The Prussian vampire grabbed his friend's hand and ran from the cafeteria.

"Veh~! I wanna help! I wanna help!" Feliciano chirped, rushing after them.

Lovino growled and twitched but started heading to the front entrance. "Let's go, bastard…."

Antonio nodded and smiled. As they neared the entry doors, his strides became longer and as he pasted the Italian, he scooped him into his arms, breaking into a full sprint and tearing out of the school building towards the werewolf's home.

"Gil~~~! Aspetta! I wanna be helpful~!" Feliciano called, skipping after the duo.

"Alright. Cool," Gilbert said, smirking. "So what we're going to do, is Fran and I are going to get in a 'fight', and then you are going to come in and try to break us up."

"That doesn't sound all that hard," Feliciano noted.

"Ah, but here's the twist. We're going to yell at each other in French, German, and Italian," the albino said, his crimson eyes flashing with mischife.

"My…. Must you make everything be so difficult~?" Francis sighed dramatically.

"Ja. Ja, I do," Gilbert answered. "Now! Prepare for the fight of a life time." With an evil grin, he began to yell in German. "Sie füllen arschloch! Wie viele verdammte mal muss ich ihnen sagen, die ficken wegbleiben!? Es ist mir egal, wenn sie gerade ihre verbreitung sind dumm 'l'amour' scheiße, aber es klopfen die verpiss dich!" (You complete asshole! How many fucking times do I have to tell you to stay the fuck away!? I don't care if you're just spreading your stupid 'l'amour' shit, but knock it the fuck off!)

Then Francis yelled back, "Et qui es-tu parler?! Vous n'êtes pas comme 'génial' que vous pensez que vous êtes! Tout le monde aime quand je les aide avec amour! Juste parce que vous êtes juste comme votre petit frère de cette façon vous donne pas le droit de me parler! (And just who are you to talk?! You're not as 'awesome' as you think you are! Everyone loves it when I help them with love! Just because you are just like your little brother that way gives you no right to talk to me!)"

"Fick dich, du großen Arsch! Sein Französisch nicht automatisch machen Sie den verdammten Experte! Die Hälfte der Zeit, die Sie gerade dabei Scheiße aus dem Arsch!" (Fuck you, you major ass! Being French doesn't automatically make you the fucking expert! Half the time you're just pulling shit out of your ass!) Gilbert snarled.

Feliciano stood there watching them, smiling, forgetting he was suppose to be helping.

Francis went to yell back but, noticing Feliciano standing there silently, motioned for the Italian to join in.

The Italian's eyes widened a bit in realization and he quickly joined in. "Veh, veh! Ragazzi, ragazzi! Si prega di non combattere! Per favore! Stai amici ricordano? Amici dovrebbero essere gentile con l'altro! Si prega di non combattere!" (Veh, veh! Guys, guys! Please don't fight! Please! You're friends remember? Friends are supposed to be nice to each other! Please don't fight!)

Gilbert winked encouragingly then turned his 'anger' on the werewolf. "Halt den Mund! Was würden Sie wissen!? Nichts! Sie wissen nichts, weil du ein Idiot bist!" (Shut up! What would you know!? Nothing! You don't know anything because you're an idiot!)

"Hey! Ne le prenez pas sur lui! Si vous avez un problème, alors le prendre avec votre faux petit ami et arrêter d'être jaloux de votre propre frère! C'est pathétique c'est que monsieur 'awesome'?! (Hey! Don't take it out on him! If you have a problem, then take it up with your fake boyfriend and stop being jealous of your own brother! How pathetic is that mister 'awesome'?!)"

"Er ist kein Fake! Er ist real! Es ist nicht meine Schuld, du bist verdammt noch blind für ihn zu sehen!" (He's not fake! He's real! It's not my fault you're to fucking blind to see him!) Gilbert shrieked.

By now, a large group of students had formed around the three, trying to decode what they were saying to each other and what the fight was about. Teachers were rushing down the halls towards them, coming to break the fight up.

Feliciano flitted back and forth between the pair, speaking in Italian to quickly for either of them to follow.

"Pourquoivous-! Commentsuis-jeaveugle?! (Why you-! How am I blind?!)"

"Du bist Homosexuell-ass Haar bedeckt die Augen, so dass Sie nicht sehen können, was richtig ist in ficken vor Ihnen!" (You're gay-ass hair covers your eyes so you can't see what's right in fucking front of you!)

"Veh! Si prega di smettere! Per favore! Sii gentile con l'altro! Siamo tutti amici!" (Please stop! Please! Be nice to each other! We're all friends!)

"Vous aimeriez avoir ma propre belle chevelure, chiffon top! (You wish you had my own beautiful hair, rag top!)"

"Fick dich, Francis! Mein Haar ist genial und du weißt es! Du bist nur eifersüchtig!" (Fuck you, Francis! My hair is awesome and you know it! You're just jealous!) Gilbert raised his fist as though to strike the other. However, Feliciano jumped between them, shrieking at them to stop. The teachers arrived then, one grabbing Gilbert and another Francis. The third teacher found herself comforting a sobbing Italian.

Antonio and Lovino appeared the end of the hall, both looking a little jumpy and Antonio out of breath. "Everything alright?" he asked.

"The HELL is wrong with you bastards…..?" Lovino commented as he watched.

Instantly, Feliciano stopped crying and he bounced over to his twin. "Fratellone~!"

"H-Hey! Get the hell off me!"

"B-But I didn't hug you yet!" Feliciano whined, dropping his arms back down.

"Well I'm fucking preventing it!"

"Aww..." Feliciano pouted.

Lovino crossed his arms. "Don't 'aww' me dammit."

The younger continued to pout.

"Get your ass back to class, dammit."

Feliciano let out a groan and leaned forward, wrapping his arms around his twin's neck, letting his legs go limp so he was simply hanging off his brother. "But it's booooooring..."

Lovino growled and started trying to pry Feliciano off. "Don't fucking care!"

"I dooo... I don't wanna gooo..."

"D-Dammit, Feliciano!"

The younger twin opened his mouth to whine again, but Alfred suddenly appeared behind him and hoisted him up and across his should, making Feliciano squeal in surprise. "WOOT! CHEMISTRY TIME! I heard we get to light stuff on fire today!" the excitable American exclaimed.

"V-Veh!" Was all Feliciano had time to say before Alfred shot off down the hall to class, taking Feliciano with him.

Lovino rolled his eyes as he watched. "The whole fucking school's going to get burnt down….." He muttered.

"Really? How do you know?" Antonio asked curiously.

"Didn't you see that look on burger bastard's damn face? We're all fucking screwed."

The vampire thought for a moment. "So... we'll sit by the windows today," he said, taking Lovino's hand and leading him down the hall to their class, pretending not to hear the werewolf's complaints and demands to be let go.

Feliciano sighed and flopped across the lab table. He was so boooored. School was boring. And he was bad at it. Not like Lovino. Lovino was super smart! But not him...

"Feliciano-kun? Is... something wrong…?" Kiku asked in a concerned tone.

"... Si..." the little Italian mumbled.

"Would you like to talk about it?"

Feliciano was about to answer, but then the Chemistry teacher, Mr. George, entered. "Alright guys and gals," he said, a slight Southern accent accompanying his voice. "We going to do a lab today so get out your Vizor Goggles, then go back to the lab tables with your group partners."

There were shuffling noises as the students got up from their seats, collected their goggles then moved to the stations. After explaining the lab, everyone turned on their gas valves and lite them. They first heated the end of a pieces of copper till it glowed red softly. Taking down their observations, Mr. George began to walk around the room for the second half of the lab.

"Now, magnesium is very reactive. Do not look at it directly. It can burn through your retinas and blind you. Look from your peripheral vision." The elder Chemistry teacher went around lighting small strips of the metal for the students to observe.

Feliciano didn't understand what they were suppose to be doing. He was very confused, and looking between Kiku and Alfred's notes, he was unable to come up with anything to write on his own blank paper. All he knew was that he kept seeing a bright spark in the corner of his eye, but by the time he looked over, either someone had moved in front of it, for the shinny thing had disappeared.

Feeling frustrated, the werewolf had neglected to listen to the directions. When Mr. George came to their station and his friends looked away, he stared on obliviously. Then, Mr. George lite the metal.

Instantly the Italian felt a searing pain in his eyes and he cried out in pain. White bloomed across his vision, taking away everything else. He fell backwards onto the ground, scratching at his eyes in panic.

He felt hands on his shoulders and arms, but he didn't recognize any of then in his panicked state. His teeth began to sharpen along with his nails and his breaths became ragged and heavy, fear overwhelming him and he lay struggling on the floor, trying to get any from the clinging hands that seemed to surround him.

Then, there was suddenly another set of hands that swatted the other ones away and pulled Feliciano close in a gentle way. This was followed by Lovino's voice in Feliciano's ear saying, "Calm down, dumbass. I'm here, dammit. Just stay calm."

Feliciano grabbed onto his twin and clung to him tightly, terrified. The white had faded away leaving only complete blackness behind. He whimpered, his nails sharpening along with his teeth even more.

Lovino held onto Feliciano as he helped him to his feet then led him out of the room and into the nearby bathroom, then he shut and locked the door.

The younger twin felt around, his eyes darting about wildly in their attempt to see something, anything besides the endless blackness surrounding him. Fear was beginning to over-whelm him and he fell to his knees, breathing heavily as his entire body shook, his arms wrapped around his torso tightly.

Lovino continued holding Feliciano as close as possible. "Feliciano. Calm down, dammit. I'm NOT going to let anything happen to you!"

Feliciano clung to his twin tightly. "I-I can't s-see..." he forced through his gritted teeth.

"I know, dammit…. I know… Don't worry…. I'll keep you safe."

"I-It's so dark... So dark..." Feliciano whimpered softly, shaking with fear. He was starring blindly over Lovino's shoulder at the wall, his eyes seeming to be covered in a strange, white film.

"I know…." Lovino answered then frowned and moved Feliciano's head so they were eye to eye. "Let me look."

The younger twin's eyes darted around wildly, trying to locate his brother's gaze.

"Feliciano… I'm taking you to the nurse's office, okay? Just hold onto my hand and try to stay calm," Lovino gently said as he took Feliciano's hand and gave it a gentle squeeze.

Feliciano whimpered and his breaths became short, but he gripped his brother's hand tightly, his entire body shaking in fear. He nodded stiffly.

Lovino gripped Feliciano's hand then started leading him out of the bathroom and to the nurse's.

The trip was long and difficult. At least, for Feliciano it was. Even though he knew his twin wouldn't let him crash into anything, he couldn't shake the feeling he was going to walk off the edge of a stair or bump into something. Every few seconds the pair was forced to stop so Feliciano could calm down enough to move his feet a few more steps. He had a death grip on Lovino's arm and was shaking horribly, so much so that his legs felt like they would buckle under him at any moment.

Finally, Lovino got Feliciano into the room and sat him down on the bed. "Dammit… Where the hell is the nurse…?"

Feliciano wrapped his arms around himself tightly, shaking. "I-I n-ne-need L-Lud-dy," he stuttered, his eyes starring unblinkingly at the wall across from him.

Lovino rubbed Feliciano's back as he glanced around to see where the nurse was. "I know, dammit… But we need to wait for the damn nurse first…"

Shaking harshly, Feliciano curled up tightly at his brother's side.

Lovino held Feliciano close and rubbed his back as they waited.

Feliciano's nerves didn't calm once, the little Italian feeling as though he was going to go insane at any moment from his fear. After waiting and waiting with the nurse still not showing up, Feliciano couldn't take it anymore. "Ludwig!" he screamed, throwing himself off the bed and onto the ground, scrambling blindly for the door. He ran the wrong way and collided with a wall, getting knocked backwards onto the floor.

"Shit! Feliciano! Stay in the damn bed!" Lovino scolded as he grabbed Feliciano and yanked him back onto the bed.

The Italian shrieked, not expecting the grab. His nails and teeth began to sharpen once more as he began to lose control. "L-Ludwig! Ludwig!" he screamed again, jerking around to escape his brother's hold.

"Feliciano! Knock this shit off!"

Fur began to grow on Feliciano's arms as his cries became more desperate and terrified, his clawed hands swiping at Lovino.

"Feliciano!" Lovino growled as his own teeth and nails started sharpening.

Feliciano screamed again at the sudden pricks to his skin. He jerked backwards, slamming into a cart and knocking the thing down. The loud crashes sent him rocketing back forward, latching onto his twin tightly and trembling, his blind eyes wide. His arms locked themselves around the elder boy's waist as Feliciano hid his face against Lovino's stomach, the fur disappearing as his teeth and nails sank back down. He whimpered.

Lovino panted as he held Feliciano close and tried to get the both of them to calm down.

Pressing closer, Feliciano whimpered once more, a soft cry of "Luddy, help me..." escaping him as tears coated his cheeks.

"J-Just stay calm, dammit…"

"I-I... I-I," Feliciano stuttered. He clenched his teeth and squeezed his sightless eyes tightly shut, shuttering.

"Shit… Need to find a damn phone and call nonno…."

"N-Ne-Need L-Ludd-Luddy," Feliciano forced out, curling up tightly in a ball on his twin's lap.

Lovino ignored him as he pulled out his cell phone and dialed Romulus's number.

"Pronto?" Romulus asked, sounding worried when he answered. "Lovi, what's wrong? Why are you calling me during school?"

"I-It's Feliciano…" Lovino answered with a stutter. "H-He can't fucking see right now…. Can you come pick us up? I'd drive but we'd need your damn permission to leave."

"CHE COSA!?" Romulus yelled, fury igniting in his voice. Lovino knew in that moment that a shit storm like no other was brewing and headed straight for his high school and, holy shit, it was going to be a direct hit.

"S-Shit… That old bastard's going to go on a fucking rampage…" Lovino stuttered when the call was disconnected.

Feliciano was still curled up in Lovino's lap, pants and gasps issuing from his lips as he shook and tried his best to stay calm and not transform.

Lovino continued trying to keep him calm and under control. "Shh… shh…."

The twins heard the sounds of footsteps coming down the hall towards them. The scent that came with the person identified them as Yao.

"What the hell is he doing here?!"

The Chinese man stuck his head into the room, spotting the brothers on the ground. "Kiku called me," he said, slowly moving towards the two, being sure to make noise with each step so that Feliciano could tell exactly were he was.

"What…? You here to fix Feliciano, you bastard…?" Lovino asked skeptically.

"We'll see." Kneeling down beside the two, Yao managed to get a trembling Feliciano to sit up and open his eyes for inspection. The nature spirit was quite as he studied the werewolf's eyes.

"W-Well…. Can you fix him, bastard?"

"Feliciano, we'll be right. back. Stay calm, alright?" Yao said. He saw a potted plant sitting on the nurse's desk. He quickly grew on half of the pot lamb's ear and on the other side, mint. "Just relax."

The blind child took a deep breath, feeling his nerves soothed slightly from the refreshing scent. He reached out towards it and found the soft lamb's ear plant. He lay on the floor, breathing in the minty air and petting the soft green leaves.

Satisfied, Yao stepped into the hall and brought Lovino with him.

Lovino glared and spat, "What the hell are you doing bring me out here! I thought you were going to fucking fix him!"

"I can't," Yao said softly.

Lovino froze and stared at the nature spirit. "W-What?!"

"The damage is to deep for even me to heal. Don't worry," Yao said quickly, seeing the panic rising on Lovino's face. "He will heal over time, but his site will have to come back naturally. We can't do anything, at least not yet. If we tried, we could make the damage permanent and he would be blind forever."

"… So what the hell are we SUPPOSED to do then….?"

"Help him. Just help him as much as we can. Show him were things are, teach him how to use his hearing and sense of smell to their full potential. We can make it feel almost as if he didn't lose his vision," the spirit explained.

Lovino nodded. "How long until his sight's back…?"

"I can't say. It could take months, it could be only a few days."

"D-Dammit…"

"This is all I can do. Keep the plant. It won't die, even if you forget to water it. Go back to him now. And as much as I know you don't want to hear this, get Ludwig. He can help," Yao said.

Lovino growled a little. "The FUCK he can…."

"Lovino, Feliciano and Ludwig are bonded together for eternity the same way you and Antonio are. Think how much it would hurt if you needed Antonio more than anything and the only person around to go get him was Feliciano and he refused. How would you feel?"

Lovino growled more as his eyes started to turn gold. "Feliciano NEEDS him now and that asshole is nowhere in sight!"

"Then find him. Bring him back to Feliciano. Your brother really does need him. It's not a want," Yao said, moving to the side of the hallway in case Lovino should choose to go the way he was blocking.

"Fine!" Lovino spat. "Just stay with Feliciano!" Then he stomped off.

Yao smiled and went back into the nurse's office, the woman herself, he knew, was currently in the elementary school and wouldn't be back for some time. Moving towards the Italian still curled on the ground, he spoke. "Feliciano?"

The werewolf turned towards the sound, his blind gaze hitting a point on the wall somewhere over Yao's left shoulder. "S-Si?"

"Come on. I'm going to get you back onto the bed."

Lovino growled to himself as he raced down the hallway, searching everywhere for the German vampire.

Seventh period had started by now, meaning the potato muncher was in his next class. It was the same as Feliciano's, so it was the Government room he was looking for.

"That asshole's going to fucking get it…." Lovino growled to himself then stalked into the room, grabbing the German by his sleeve and dragging him out of the room before he could be stopped or even questioned.

All protests were ignored as Lovino yanked Ludwig after him, bolting down the hall back towards the nurse's office.

Finally, Lovino dragged him back into the room and shoved him inside. "Here's the bastard, Feliciano."

Feliciano shot straight up in the bed, he head whipping towards the door, his blind eyes wide as he sniffed the air for his boyfriend's scent. "Luddy? Luddy! Where are you!?" he cried, feeling around in the air surrounding him.

"Right here," Ludwig replied as he came over and took the werewolf's hands in his own larger ones. "What happened?"

Feliciano trembled and jumped on the vampire, following the other's hands back to his body. His eyes watered and he squeezed them shut. "I-I messed up really bad... in C-Chemistry... I d-didn't hear the instructions..." He began to cry. "I can't see! I can't see anything!"

"Shh…. Don't worry." Ludwig calmly said as he held Feliciano close. "I'll keep you safe. I won't let anything happen to you."

The little werewolf held tightly onto his mate, sobbing heavily into his chest.

Lovino stood and watched from the side, glaring with a growl in his throat.

Yao, who was about to leave, stopped next to him. "Lovino, I know you don't like it, but this is going to be something that will happen for the rest of your lives. They need each other, just like you and Antonio need each other. I'm sorry." And then he was gone.

"…. Doesn't me I have to fucking approve…." Lovino muttered under his breath.

On the other side of the room, Ludwig's comforting presence and scent was succeeding in calming Feliciano down. The Italian was curled up in his boyfriend's lap, his face pressed against the vampire's neck as he breathed deeply.

Lovino continued glaring daggers at them.

Feliciano shivered. "I can feel his glare..." he whispered to Ludwig.

Ludwig sighed and nodded. "Ja… Me too…"

He shivered again, pressing closer to the other male. "It's scary..."

"J-Ja…."

Feliciano sniffed and pressed his face harder against Ludwig's neck. "W-What am I doing to d-do, Luddy? Veh, I-I can't see anything at all..." Tears brimmed in his eyes and threatened to overflow down his face.

"Don't worry. I'll protect you."

The Italian looked up, his eyes landing on Ludwig's forehead rather than his eyes. "B-But... I wanna see... I w-wanna see Luddy..." He sniffed. "T-The dark is scary... I don't like the dark..."

"I know… Don't worry… It will come back soon."

"P-Promise?"
