Short chapter, but that's because we ran out of time to work again...
Ludwig and Feliciano entered their theater just in time. Of course, the Italian had made Ludwig stop and get "forgiveness snacks", which did include a single pop for them to share, along with candy and popcorn. The werewolf had gathered up the purchases and lead the way to the theater, squealing with excitement, using his back to open the door, then hurrying to find a good seat that had both a great view and perfect cushion softness for cuddles. After all, you never know what could happen in a horror movie.
"Are…. You sure you're going to be able to see this….?" The German vampire asked in a awkward tone after a few moments. "If this bothers you we can go see something else… or.. go somewhere else. It's up to you after all."
"No no, this is fine, I want to see this," he answered quickly, setting down the food and taking Ludwig's hand, though there was still a little hesitation, as though he expected the other to yank away. When it didn't happen, he smiled and pulled him down into the seat beside him, setting the pop between them and handing Ludwig his candy, his own on his lap, and setting the popcorn bucket on top of his leg, the one closer to Ludwig.
"This is going to be so much fun~," he cooed.
Ludwig blinked a few times in surprise, still not yet used to this newer version of his boyfriend. Deciding not to say something that could possibly hurt Feliciano he turned his attention back to the screen and waited for the movie to start.
Feliciano slyly hooked his arm with Ludwig's and laid his head on the other's shoulder, eating some of the popcorn and humming happily as they waited for the movie. "I'm glad you wanted to take me to the movies, sirrrr-udwig," he said, quickly correcting himself.
Ludwig's face flushed instantly. "J-Ja…. I-I did…. Er…. Does that… make you happy….?"
"Si. Very happy," Feliciano chirped.
The German nodded and looked away blushing.
"Can I kiss you?" the werewolf asked out of the blue.
If at all possible Ludwig's face flushed even more. "W-Was….?"
Feliciano leaned in a little closer, a light blush coating his cheeks as well. "Can I kiss you?"
After a pause Ludwig shook his head no. "N-Nein…." Then he swallowed and added. "I-I want to do it…."
The color that rose onto Feliciano's face rivaled that of Lovino's darkest blush. "That's okay with me," he murmured shyly, his gaze dropping to the floor, though he leaned a few inches closer to Ludwig.
With his face even more flushed the German slowly leaned forward and cupped the back of Feliciano's head then kissed him.
The moment their lips touched, the lights went out and the screen lite up, but neither noticed, the pair rather preoccupied with something far more important than commercials.
Feliciano was in ecstasy. His heart swelled and he brought up his own hands, gently holding Ludwig's face between them and tilting his head slightly to press closer to his boyfriend, barely able to think about anything other that the vampire kissing him.
Soon enough Ludwig pulled away, having to catch his breath.
The Italian sat back in his seat, a little shocked, but mostly just blown away by how good of a kiss he had just shared with Ludwig of all people. Panting a little to catch his breath, he slowly looked over at the other, unable to think of anything to say.
"T-That was…." The German gasped.
Feliciano nodded mutely, slowly taking Ludwig's hand.
The two sat quickly, hand in hand as the movie began.
In another theater, Lovino glanced over at Antonio then carefully asked, "Hey…. Tomato bastard?"
Antonio instantly turned his attention onto the Italian at his side. "Si, Lovi?"
"Thanks…. For taking me here…. A-And sticking with me though this shit…."
The Spaniard smiled. "Of course, Lovi. I would do anything for you," he said, taking Lovino's hand gently. "I should be thanking you for accepting to come with me."
"Thanking… me? Why?"
"Because I love doing stuff with you and we haven't done anything like this in a long time!"
Lovino blinked then blushed as he quickly glanced away. "I-I heard you and the potato bastard got sick with us gone… really sick…. Even worse than when we saw you…."
Antonio nodded. "That's true."
"Why that bad though? And how?"
"Because of the bond we have with you and Feli. Your presence keeps us alive like ours keeps you alive. It didn't affect you because, at least how Arthur explained it to us, there was a version of us in the past, but you guys weren't here in anyway."
"…. That's fucked up." Lovino muttered then frowned. "… how… how long before me and Feliciano are fixed?"
"I'm not sure. It won't take long, I should think."
"Better not, dammit. I don't want to end up in jail."
Antonio laughed. "I won't let that happen, Lovi. Don't worry."
"Good." Then the Italian turned his attention back to the screen.
The Spaniard slyly took the werewolf's hand, setting back into his seat.
Although Lovino pretended not to notice, he couldn't stop his face from flushing more.
The theater darkened then and the opening commercials began.
"…. What's this damn movie about again?"
"I don't really know how to explain it, so I guess we'll just have to wait and see~!"
"F-Feliciano….? Er… are you sure you're alright with this….?" Ludwig asked as the beginning of a very bloody scene began, causing the German to start to reach over instinctively to hug Feliciano close to keep the Italian calm.
The vampire received the biggest shock of his life then.
Feliciano laughed. The Italian was actually laughing in delight at the violence taking place on the screen.
Words failed the German for a few seconds until he managed to choke out, "F-Feliciano….?"
Giggling, Feliciano smiled at Ludwig, and took the German teen's hand. "Don't be scared, Luddy," he said quietly. "It's okay."
"N-Nein… I'm… not scared of the movie…" He trailed off, not really wanting to say that it was the werewolf's reaction to the movie that was worrying him.
"Good, because I would never let anything like that happen to you," Feliciano said, pointing to the screen as a woman was ripped apart by a chain saw.
"…. D-Danke…."
The Italian smiled again, then looked back at the screen.
Ludwig inwardly sighed and turned back to the screen too. What he wouldn't give to have HIS Feliciano back….
When the movie was over, Feliciano skipped happily from the theater, chattering about his favorite gory bits happily to Ludwig.
At the same time, Lovino's and Antonio's movie also ended and the two of them walked out of their theater. However, Lovino didn't see his brother as he accidentally crashed into his back. "OW! Fucking watch it, bastard! Learn how to fucking walk!"
"Oh, screw you, you weren't watching either," Feliciano snapped, pushing himself back up and helping his twin to stand.
"Huh…? You're not turning back yet…?" Lovino asked, confused as he stared at his twin.
"What the hell are you talking about?"
"You KNOW what I'm fucking talking about!"
Feliciano rolled his eyes. "Whatever. I'm hungry."
"Hey! Knock off the fucking attitude, brat! I'm worried about you!"
"Obviously, that's why you keep swearing at me and calling me names. I can feel your affection from over here."
"Fuck off!" Lovino snarled as he shoved into Feliciano's shoulder then stomped past him towards the doors.
The shove was stronger than Lovino meant it to be and Feliciano was thrown back into the wall. He grunted in pain as his back slammed into the brick.
Lovino paused then looked away guiltily. "S-Sorry…."
Feliciano growled and stood up. "You asshole," he hissed angrily.
"I SAID I was fucking sorry," Lovino growled back.
"Well maybe your half-assed 'sorry' wasn't good enough!"
"Maybe if you weren't so fucked up in the head you could tell it was a real one!"
"Maybe you should stop being a dick!"
"I will if you fucking will!"
"Fuck you!"
"Fucking MAKE me!"
"FINE!" Feliciano threw himself at his twin, snarling and clawing at him.
Lovino immediately fought back, also clawing and biting at any part of his twin that he could reach.
The two rolled out the door, fighting each other furiously, much to the shock of the other people in the area.
"Feliciano! Nein! Stop this!" Ludwig ordered as he darted forward and went to grab Feliciano, both twins now starting to change into wolf form.
Feliciano snapped at the vampire, then returned to trying to bite Lovino even as Antonio tried to grab Lovino.
Lovino also snapped at Antonio as he continued attacking his brother.
Suddenly, there was a screech of tires and a familiar looking man came storming over. "Lovino Romano Vargas and Feliciano Veneziano Vargas! You stop that RIGHT now and get here NOW!" he demanded, his voice thundering.
