So, I didn't update last week because it was graduation and a bunch of senior stuff. I'm updating this Monday, but not editing, because I really don't feel up to it.
I got 8 teeth pulled today. I almost didn't even update this today.
And I'm sorry to say guys, but from now on, updates will always be sporadic, but always on a Monday. Dogs and I both got jobs, I'm getting ready to head out to college, something is wrong with her computer, so we just don't have the time to write we wish we had. I'm really sorry.
Lovino ran from that spot as fast as he could, soon ditching Antonio, until he finally reached Arthur's house. Without waiting a single second he pounded on the door until the British man was forced to open it. Then after yelling at each other back and forth Lovino finally convinced Arthur to give him two potions, the first one to change him into a vampire in the morning, then the second one at exactly midnight to make the first one permanent. With a quick grunt of thanks to Arthur Lovino ran back home and locked himself in his room (but not before grabbing blood bags they now kept in the house for their vampire boyfriends and guest).
D-Dammit…." The Italian muttered to himself. "This damn thing better fucking work…." Taking a deep breath, he uncorked it and downed the vial in one gulp then gasped in pain and doubled over as he started to change. Once he was done he hissed as he grabbed the nearest blood bag and drained it, soon followed by all the ones he had brought in the room with him.
After he was done he leaned back against his bed panting while his new fangs gleamed. Then suddenly a thought entered his head, making him pick up his cell phone and send a text to Antonio. 'Hey. Tomato bastard. Quick question, Feliciano's doing a paper in English and needs to come up with a fake guide for a magical creature and he picked vampires. What the hell do you do for a new vampire? Like care of and how long you have to take care of them?' he lied, but… maybe he can find how to do this without getting caught this way…?
Antonio answered soon after, 'So you leave me at the park? D:'
'Fine. I did. Sorry bastard. Now can you answer the damn question?'
'Why didn't Feli just text me himself?'
'Because I'm trying to fucking help him and make it a surprise! Now will you fucking tell me how to take care of new vampires and for how fucking?!'
'D: you're mean. Good thing I love you. The best thing to do is keep them away from humans for about a full seven days. They need to be fed continuously, and it helps if they have a peaceful environment to control their sudden heightened senses.'
Lovino nodded to himself then texted back. 'What's the best way to feed them? And what do you mean by constantly?'
"I mean like every couple of hours they need at least the equal to three bags of blood. The best way to feed them is to just show them where the blood is and let them get it themselves.'
'Thanks bastard. This should help a lot.'
'Yep~! Tea mo, amor~!'
Lovino breathed out before leaning back against the bed. Then set the alarm on his phone for two hours before sticking it in his pocket and heading downstairs to watch tv. Good thing their grandfather was on a long business trip at the moment….
Three hours later, Feliciano came home.
Although Lovino had already drank more blood, he tensed up as he smelled his brother, keeping his eyes trained on the tv as to distract himself from the smell of fresh blood.
Feliciano went past his twin without a word, still sore over their earlier exchange.
Lovino flinched slightly and tightly gripped the couch while starting to rip into it due to his new vampire strength.
The younger twin went into the kitchen to get a glass of water. He paused when he entered, seeing the door to the blood freezer they had set up ajar.
"Fratello?" he called. "Why is the door to the blood fridge open?"
"I-I…." Lovino swallowed dryly, guess he needed to grab another bag when Feliciano left the room. "A-Antonio needed them…. G-Guess I forgot to close the damn thing."
"…..Antonio hasn't been here today."
"I-I did inventory….!"
"Why would you need to inventory bags of blood?" Feliciano looked into the living room with a frown. "What are you hiding?"
"N-Nothing!" Lovino hissed as he stood up and made his way to the stairs. "Why do you fucking care anyway?!"
"Where are you going? Why are you getting all defensive?"
"I'm NOT getting fucking defensive!" Lovino snapped then slammed and locked his bedroom door behind him before sinking to the floor panting and rubbing his burning throat.
Feliciano rolled his eyes and closed the fridge, then got a cup and filled it. His phone dinged, signaling he got a new text. He pulled his phone from his pocket, reading the message, a text from Antonio. 'Hey, Feli~! :D How's your project going?'
Confused, Feliciano texted back, 'What project? ?_?' /ding/ 'Lovi told me you were doing a project on supernatural creatures and you picked to do newly turned vampires~!'
Feliciano froze and his eyes widened, the pieces falling into place. He dropped his phone on the counter and sprinted upstairs to Lovino's room. He grabbed the door and turned the knob so hard he broke open the lock. He grabbed Lovino and yanked him up by his shirt front. "What. The fuck. Did. You. Do?" he growled.
Lovino hissed as he yanked Feliciano's hand away. "Get the fuck off me!" He snarled, accidently exposing his gleaming fangs.
"What the hell did you do?!" Feliciano screamed, shoving him back.
"Why the fuck are you so pissed off?!" Lovino hissed as he went to walk around Feliciano to head back to the kitchen and get a blood bag. "Finally you get your fucking potato bastard ALL to yourself without me in the fucking way!"
Feliciano grabbed his arm, "You turned yourself into a fucking vampire! Why the hell would I not be pissed?!"
Lovino jumped with a startled hiss at the sudden grab and snapped at Feliciano with his fangs.
"Why did you do this to yourself, you idiot?!" Feliciano scolded, not letting go.
"I-I wanted to be same damn thing as Antonio!" Lovino snapped. "Now get the fuck off me!"
"Why would you do something so stupid?!" Feliciano cried, tears in his eyes as he worried for his twin.
"L-Let me go…" Lovino whispered, now wanting blood so badly but still didn't want to attack his brother.
"N-No…. fratello, why….." Feliciano's voice was filled with despair.
"I-I…." Lovino stuttered as he squeezed his eyes shut. "T-Thirsty….."
Letting out a soft sob, Feliciano let him go and ran to him room.
Feeling slightly guilty, Lovino watched him leave then headed to the kitchen. Once Feliciano realized he didn't have to listen to Lovino anymore he'll be happier… right?
Feliciano sat on his bed, sniffling. He patted his pockets and realized he didn't have his phone. He debated staying there, but he knew he had to tell Antonio. He took a deep breath, then left his room and started downstairs.
Lovino sighed to himself as he opened the blood fridge and started grabbing some bags.
Feliciano peeked into the room. He ran to the counter, grabbed his phone, and sprinted back out.
Lovino frowned as he looked around then shrugged before heading back to the living room to watch tv and drink from the bags.
Back in the safety of his room, he texted Antonio, his hands shaking. 'Toni, you need to get over here. Now. It's Lovi. He's done something really bad…'
'What's happened?' Antonio responded, clearly worried.
'he's turned himself into a vampire.''I'll be there in a moment.' The Spaniard replied shortly.
In the living room Lovino leaned back into the couch while drinking from the bag in his hand. Feliciano was being really quiet….
There was a knock at the door then.
Lovino glared at the door then went back to drinking.
The knock came again, harder this time.
Lovino drained the bag then hissed before going over to the door and opening it.
Antonio stood in the doorway, looking furious.
Lovino froze and paled then went to slam the door shut and lock it.
Antonio shoved the door opened and entered the house, grabbing Lovino's shoulders. "What have you done?" he asked, his voice low and hard.
"I-I…." Lovino stuttered while starting to tear up from fear.
"Lovino, tell me why you did this to yourself," the Spaniard said.
"I-I….. I wanted to be the same damn thing as you…." Lovino sniffled.
"Why? Being a vampire, no pun intended but quite literally, sucks."
Lovino shook his head no and tried to pull away.
"Lovino, if you did this only because you want to be the same as me, then I'm sorry but you are an idiot."
Lovino flinched and teared up more. "….. I'd thought you'd be happy…. A-And Feliciano's fucking free to do what he wants….."
Antonio sighed and hugged him tightly. "Feliciano has nothing to do with this. Lovino, have you made this permanent?"
"….. S-Si…." Lovino lied. "I can't turn back."
Antonio let out a slow breath. "Okay… we need to go see Arthur."
"No!" Lovino hissed then sank his fangs into Antonio's arm to force him to let go.
Antonio narrowed his eyes but only held on tighter. "Yes."
"I'm NOT fucking going!" Lovino hissed, his eyes turning red. "I already told you this shit is permanent! I can't be changed back!"
"You aren't going to have your life ruined! You think you want this, but you take it from me you really fucking don't!" Antonio thundered angrily.
Lovino flinched and looked down trying not to cry.
"Lovino…. I told you we all chose to be vampires. It was the worse decisions of our lives. Being a vampire is not easy. We only made it because left civilization for almost a hundred years. Do you want to be away for that long? If you let this remain permanent, you have to leave with me right now. You won't ever see Romulus ever again. You won't even be able to see Feliciano. You need to sever all connections until you learn to control your desires.
"W-Why the hell can't I have both…?"
"Because you won't be able to control yourself. If the person you are trying to get a connection with isn't a vampire, you will kill them for their blood."
"F-Feliciano's a damn werewolf…"
"A werewolf is not a vampire. I just said, unless they are a vampire you will kill them. You would kill Feliciano if he came to see you before you are ready."
Lovino fell silent and bit his lip before softly mumbling. "….. I lied…."
"About what, Lovi?" He asked, his voice becoming gentle as he loosened his hold.
"I…. I-It's not permanent yet…. It won't be until midnight when I have to drink another potion to seal the damn change…."
"Lovi…. I'm begging you. Please do not make this permanent. Please…." Antonio kissed him gently, tears in his eyes. He knew the life Lovino would have to lead if he chose this path. It was the last thing he would ever wish on even his worse enemy.
"…. If…. I made this shit permanent… then what would happen?"
"I would take you into the mountains as soon as you drank the potion. We would leave without telling anyone, we would basically disappear from the face of the earth. Yu would never see Romulus again. By the time you gained control, he would have been long dead. Feliciano will be made the lone wolf of his pack. If what Ludwig researched is true, being the only one could cause him to go crazy. None of our friends would be able to stop him until he made at least one new pack mate. Meaning he would change an innocent human into a werewolf and force them into this life. When we return, there will be a lot to catch up on. We will have no access to anything while we are gone. It will be you and me alone for years in the mountains."
"….." Lovino looked down then slowly reached into a pocket on his jacket and pulled out a small vial which he placed into Antonio's hand, not meeting his eyes.
Antonio understood. He kissed him again, crying with happiness. "I love you, Lovino. I love you so so much. Thank you. Thank you…." He whispered.
"… sorry….."
"Its okay. It's okay. I love you." The vampire hugged him to his chest and rocked slowly.
"… I-I want to go lay down…" Lovino sniffled while burying his face.
Antonio nodded and scooped the Italian into his arms, walking upstairs.
Once they reached the second floor landing Lovino pulled himself free then slowly headed for Feliciano's room.
The younger Italian was laying on his bed, his back to the door, looking at his phone, the screen being he only source of light in the room, making him look pale and ill from how much he had been crying. Currently, he was texting with Ludwig for comfort and advice on what to do if Lovino still chose to leave him and become a vampire.
Lovino quietly swallowed before slowly inching over then crawling into the bed next to Feliciano and laying down, all without saying a single word.
Feeling the bed shift with the newly added weight, Feliciano set down his phone and looked back over his shoulder, watching his brother quietly, waiting to hear his decision, his hand drumming on his side nervously.
"….. it's…. it's not permanent….."
The younger werewolf whipped around, grabbing Lovino up into a tight hug, letting out a relieved sob.
"S-Sorry…"
"I-I love you, fratello. Thank you for changing your mind," he sniffed, snuggling close to him.
Lovino blinked then glanced away. "…. You know I'm still stuck like this for today… right?"
Feliciano nodded. "Y-Yeah. I know. But tomorrow you'll be back again, yeah?" he whimpered.
"Si. Right when the damn clock strikes twelve." Lovino nodded then wrinkled his nose a little. "You smell weird dammit….."
The werewolf frowned at him and let go, scooting away from him. "Rude."
"W-What?!"
"That was rude. I don't smell weird. You smell weird," he pouted, crossing his arms and turning away from him, hurt.
"How the hell do I smell weird?!"
"Well how do I smell weird?!"
"W-Well like a damn dog!"
Feliciano began to cry. "If you're going to be mean then go be mean in your own room!" he wailed, covering his head with his pillow.
"S-Sorry dammit… I-I don't know why the hell I said that…." Lovino stuttered. "I-It just popped out….."
The younger sniffed and peeked out at him. "You promise you didn't mean it? You don't really think I smell weird?"
"I-I…" Lovino stuttered again. "I-I think I need to talk to Antonio…."
"So you did mean it," the werewolf whimpered, his eyes tearing once more.
"N-No….."
"Say you didn't mean it..."
"I-I didn't…. sorry…."
Feliciano turned away from him, clearly unconvinced. "Whatever..." he murmured sadly. "Just go... You have to talk to Toni or something..."
Lovino looked away before climbing out of the bed and heading out of the room, searching until he found Antonio. Walking up to him he tapped him in the back before mumbling. "Hey…. Bastard? What do new vampires act like….? Like are they random about shit and blunt….? And if so why?"
"Yeah, they tend to be," Antonio answered, turning around and hugging him gently. "Something to do with the change in hormones or something. I don't really understand the reason or how it all works."
"….. I hurt his feelings…. Badly." Lovino mumbled while slowly hugging back.
"Who, love?" the Spaniard asked, rubbing his back lightly.
"F-Feli….. I-I said he smelled weird like a damn dog….."
"Like a... dog?" Antonio was confused by this.
Lovino looked away and nodded.
The vampire made a face. "Huh. That's weird. I've never thought either of you smelled like a dog."
"…. What the hell do I do?"
"Tell him you're sorry? I don't know, querido, there isn't very much besides that you can really do right now," Antonio said gently, hugging him close. "I'm sorry you said that and feel badly about it, but it really isn't that big of a deal if you think about it. Feli will probably be over it in a little while and it'll be like nothing ever happened."
"Until I say something else."
"You didn't mean it, tomate, I'm sure he understands."
"You didn't see him fucking crying." Lovino hissed back.
Antonio sighed. "Yeah, I didn't, but I've seen him cry hundreds of times now. Lovi, he's probably tired and not a little stressed. He's okay, I promise."
The Italian glanced at him warily. "Y-You sure….?"
"Positive," the vampire cooed.
Lovino nodded and looked away. "….. thirsty."
"Well let's get you something to drink."
The Italian nodded again as he let Antonio lead him to the kitchen.
