A brothers's afternoon [With Lovino Vargas]

[Deleted]

Today was Saturday and of course it was a day off of school, Feliciano was happy because he could sleep any time he wanted, he was a lover of sleeping and when he could sleep he was always happy of that. After sleeping a lot and woke up at 12 a.m. hour, the young Italian took his shower and his lunch before going outside of the Academy. He was rendezvous with his elder brother to doing some shopping and when he thought about that, that’s made him really happy, he loved his brother so much that he was always glad to spend some time with him.
Feli was so happy that he was skipping like a child during the way of the town. Peoples looked at him like he was crazy but the little angel doesn’t noticed it at all, he was so happy than almost anything could be made him sad. When he was arriving to the place of the rendezvous he was waiting patiently that his brother arrives too and he was looking the place and peoples around him.

“ Vee… He’s late! Or it’s me who am arriving too early. ”

Feliciano was beginning to bore him and his smile went away. After few minutes, he saw a very beautiful lady walks near him and he couldn’t stop himself to talks to her. He was complimenting the pretty woman and after talking a little with her, she must go so the little Italian remain alone and keep waiting his brother. He hoped that one arrived soon.

As Romano headed towards the agreed meeting place – fashionably late as was custom back home, of course – he couldn’t help but wonder why in the world he had agreed to come in the first place. Seriously. It was Saturday and he could have spent the day anyway he’d liked, from napping to going on dates to just relaxing on the beach in the sun, but no, he had agreed to go shopping instead. And to make matters worse, it wasn't even a shopping trip with a pretty girl or two either; no, he was stuck with a guy – his idiot of a brother, to be exact.

The Italian shook his head. He wasn’t even there yet and he already knew the day was going to be exhausting as all hell. The other was an endless pool of bubbly energy and he – well, he was anything but. Really, that pretty much summed up the differences between the two in general; Feliciano was everything he wasn’t. At least the two’s parents and their oh-so-dear grandpa seemed to think so. Next to him, Romano was always nothing, and the other didn’t even seem to notice. How ignorant did you have to be not to?

Romano groaned. Well, whatever, in any case he’d agreed to come, so he would. He knew that if he didn’t show up now, the other would be disappointed. And, strange as it was, Romano couldn’t bear the thought of his brother like disappointed. He kept telling himself it was just because the other would be even more annoying when sad than when happy, but part of him knew that wasn’t all. He… well, he might have maybe cared for the guy a little. But just a little. And just because they were brothers and that meant that caring a tad was just mandatory and normal. Yeah. That was it. Obligatory family bonds and whatnot.

That was definitely why he was sort of happy to see him for the first time after so long, too. Yeah.

Once Romano got close enough to the agreed meeting spot to see the area properly, he noticed that, as expected, Feliciano was already there, waiting for him. Figured; while the both of them were known for not exactly being punctual, he was always the worse one – probably because he just didn’t care enough to arrive on time most of the time. Hence why all the teachers hated him, too. Not that he cared, the feeling was mutual anyway. But enough about teachers, it was Saturday, right? And although he might’ve not been able to spend it with a pretty lady, he very much intended to make the best out of it anyway. So, stretching his neck as if to prepare for the mandatory hug that was about to follow, Romano walked closer and cocked his head as a greeting.

“Hey,” he mumbled, not nearly as excited about this as his younger brother. He couldn’t help smiling a tad on the inside though. How long had it been since they’d actually properly talked before happening upon each other earlier and agreeing to come here? He’d left off for the academy a few years back by now. Funny, because it felt like a decade.

“I decided to show up in the end. Now hurry up and let’s get going. I wanna get this over with.”

Fortunately, Feli didn’t have to wait more that his elder brother was arrived. He welcomes him quite cold but that doesn’t mind to the little Italian, he was used to it. Like always when he saw his brother, he was jumping into his arms and was hugging him warmly, he even was kissing him in his cheek. Feliciano loved his brother so much!

“ Nii-chan!!! You’re finally here!! I couldn’t wait to see you! ♥ ”

“ I decided to show up in the end. Now hurry up and let’s get going. I wanna get this over with. ”

“ Alright! Let’s go then! I am wondering what clothes I’ll buy today!” Says the cute Italian with a big smile in his face.

Feli was taking the arm of his brother and was griping it against him and then he walked happy in seek of a shop. He spent in front of few but no one was to his taste when finally he found something interesting, he was going inside and then was looking after some beautiful clothes for him and his brother. The Italian was diving into a large department of shirt and was examining severely at it, there was a lot of choice of color and style, there was all so beautiful that Feliciano didn’t know what to take. So, he thought obviously to ask some help to his dearly brother.

“ Nii-chan! I don’t know what to take! Do you have an idea? What color should I take? What style? Oh and the tie is important too! Hum…” He asks in thinking.

Just as Romano had expected, the younger Italian was rather erratic to see him. He took a step back as if to try and flee as his younger brother leapt towards him, but it turned out he was way too late; in an instant he was squeezed into a warm, passionate hug, which he tried in vain to break free from. God, the guy was useless in fights and didn’t seem to have any sort of muscle otherwise, but when it came to sheer gripping power, he was surprisingly tough. It was difficult to push him away. Eventually Romano just sighed and stopped struggling, settling to only mumbling something to himself when the younger Italian pressed a light kiss on his cheek and told him how he was excited to see him – as if it weren’t obvious enough from his actions alone.

It had been a while since Romano had been greeted with such… vigor and joy. Usually people only nodded their heads if even that. It… wasn’t all that bad a feeling. He didn’t like the kissing though. He knew it was a common greeting way back home, but he would have hoped to escape from the custom when he moved away. Apparently not. If only he had girls do that to him. Oh well. In any case it was… sort of nice to be missed this much. Made him feel wanted and welcomed, both feelings he didn’t get to experience all that often. At the same time though, the fact that Feli was being this nice to him made him feel kind of guilty for being the way he was towards him. It made him feel like a bad guy for no damn reason. Ugh. Life was just too difficult sometimes. Made his head hurt.

“Alright! Let’s go then! I am wondering what clothes I’ll buy today!” The younger Italian brother cheered, and Romano groaned.

“You bought me to buy clothes?” Romano grumbled, but followed along anyway. Luckily, his brother at least had a good enough fashion sense not to embarrass him with his clothing choices. He was holding onto his arm, and Romano felt himself grow a tad red from it. Damn it, Feliciano was embarrassing him after all. Well, luckily the two of them at least looked so much alike people probably wouldn’t get any wrong ideas. Silver lining.

Once his younger brother found a shop he liked and the two headed inside, Romano started to look around too. Since he was going to be spending here a while, he could at least see if he found something for himself too. You could never have enough shirts, and he had a date coming some days from now. He had to look his best. Maybe the shopping trip wasn’t such a bad idea after all. He could even have his brother pay for him if ran out of money; Feliciano was always the more wealthy of the two anyway.

Just then, his thoughts were interrupted by his brother’s voice.

“Nii-chan! I don’t know what to take! Do you have an idea? What color should I take? What style? Oh and the tie is important too! Hum…”

Romano looked back at him and tilted his head. Was Feli asking for his opinion? His advice? He was, huh. Somehow, that made Romano feel all knowledgeable and mighty. Like a true older brother who the younger sought guidance from. Without realizing it, he puffed out his chest a tad as he looked around, deep in thought.

“Hm,” he began, walking closer to a row of dress shirts. “It depends on what you want it for. Formal for parties or casual for everyday stuff? If the former, check these out here." He gestured towards the dress shirts.

"And as for color…” He turned to look his brother up and down. “Green might fit you. Or red. Or-,” it sort of pained to admit it, but any color probably looked good on cheery little Feli. Romano wished it had been the case with him too. “Orange, or something.” At this point, he was growing rather embarrassed for spewing advice like that, so with his face just a little red, he quickly added: “Not that... I mean, I don’t care either way. Not my job to help you.“

“ Hm. It depends on what you want it for. Formal for parties or casual for everyday stuff? If the former, check these out here.”

“ I just need nowadays clothes! But if there are some pretty stuff for parties I’ll take some too!”

Feliciano was looking at the dress shirts that his brother showed to him and was listening the others advice of his dearly brother. So, green, red and orange would be good in him? In that case he’ll check clothes with theses colors! If Romano said that theses colors was good on him that’s because it was the case!

“Vee grazie nii-chan!”

“ Not that... I mean, I don’t care either way. Not my job to help you. ”

“Vee…”

The young Italian knew very well that his brother wasn’t really honest and when he said that he didn’t care about something that meant in reality that he cared. So he was happy that his brother helped him and was making a great smile to him before he keeps going to his search of clothes. After few minutes he find something interesting and went try it in a fitting room, when he had put his clothes, he was showing to Romano to know if there were good in him.

“ Nii-chan how is it? Am I pretty with that? ♥” He says with a beautiful smile.


He didn’t wait an answer from his brother and suddenly go out of the fitting room because something was caught his eyes, a beautiful red shirt with a black tie. Feliciano was taking it and then he saw another beautiful shirt, he was taking it too and did the same for a while, for a mysterious reason he had discovered a department of shirt really pretty although he had already takes a look in the whole shop. But theses one was so gorgeous that he was falling in love in them. After a while, he returned in the fitting room and tried all of the shirts, this took a pretty long time because he was taken almost the entire department and show the clothes to his brother for all of them.

“ There are all beautiful, aren’t nii-chan? I want take all of them! Oh and I need some pants too!” He says cheerfully before seek in the department of trousers and forgot totally that he didn’t have so much money than that.
