((Okay, this will have a lot less humor in it, but the happy will be back soon I swear.))

After Antonio had realized Lovino had left, he went to his car and drove home, not in a party mood anymore. He should've just believed it when Lovi said he was straight, dammit!!! Now his tomato was probably pissed or... Could the fiery brunette be homophobic? Nah... His brother liked guys but... Lovino didn't like that, right? Not liking his brother's crushes? But he is an older brother, maybe he is just being overprotective and-

The Spaniard nearly hit a car, he snapped back onto the road, punching himself mentally. He drove to his house then pulled his rust bucket into the driveway and went inside to his apartment, sighing as he flopped onto his bed. The bad emotion coming off of Antonio went into the very air of the room, making it feel muggy and heavy.

"I should do something to make me feel better..." Antonio mumbled absentmindedly and grabbed his computer, going on YouTube to watch a few videos, but nothing really kept his mind occupied. Giving up on that, he just studied a little for the test he was going to have at the end of the month, but nothing was really working. Just when Toni was about to annoy his neighbors with music, his ringtone went off, getting a text from Lovino.

The park...? Antonio felt unsure whether he should say yes or not. On one hand, it could be nice to have some time with Lovino, on the other, he could get lectured and smacked. Lovi had never smacked Toni before but he seemed like the smacking type... He agreed anyway, assuming that if he DID get smacked, he'd deserve it. Antonio went back to his van and drove to the park.

I feel like such a creeper in a van like this... Maybe I should start offering candy to strangers for fun, freak them out.

The night was cold, with it being in March. Antonio didn't care, even though he forgot his jacket again. He parked his van then walked to the park, looking around for Lovi's somewhat familiar figure. Toni spotted him finally, on the swings. Honestly, the Spaniard would've usually loved the view, with a surprisingly bright quarter moon beaming through the small amount clouds in the sky. The stars were shining and none of them were suppressed by the town light.

"Hola Lovino." Antonio made himself smile as he sat on the swing beside his Italian friend. A few memories of when they first hung out at that park came to him, but that felt like a while ago.

Why did I even say that earlier? Even though I do like him, we've only seen each other twice before, and only hung out once! oh god he must be pissed, and gonna say something like "I told you I was straight" or "I don't want to talk to you anymore". OH GOD WHAT IF HE TELLS GIL OR FRANCIS OR THEY FIND OUT!? I'll never here the end of that and-

Antonio's thoughts were yet again cut off, by Lovino saying "Hey Toni..." then the Italian took a deep breath. The Spaniard took the use of his nickname as a good sign as Lovi finally mumbled out "Have we ever talked about... Our families much?".

((Alfred appears: "What are you two, fucking gay?". Antonio nods and Lovi glares))

"No..." Toni replied slowly and Lovino closed his eyes, thinking.

"Do you mind if we do...?".

"It's fine with me I guess...".

"What's your family like?".

"... My brother Esteban and I were left by our parents when he was 15 and I was twelve. We fight a lot and we haven't spoken to each other for about a year, he sends me money sometimes. He hasn't been sending me much lately though, so I had to drop out of A.S.F.G.F.S. because I couldn't pay for it anymore.".

That was clearly NOT the answer Lovino was expecting, his eyes widened and it was obvious he was speechless. Antonio hit himself mentally for the second time that night. Why did he have to say the school part? It just kind of slipped out but... "It's okay though! What's your family like?" Toni asked quickly and Lovino got his mind back on track.

"So... I'm guessing you don't like people feeling sympathetic towards you, and I don't like feeling people sympathetic to me. My father left my mother while she was pregnant, then after she gave birth to Feli, Romeo and I... She just kind of dumped us on our grandpa. He took good care of us, until he died when I was 14. Feli and I have been watched over by a woman named Elizaveta ever since.".

"Wait... Romeo? You've never talked about him before.".

"He is the youngest, Feli and I aren't just twins, we are triplets. He is way shorter then the rest of us though, and got his different looks from our father apparently. Since he was so little, Romeo got bullied a lot and kinda got depressed I guess. He was sent to a different school when he was 15, and we skype a bit, and he comes at the holidays." Lovino overly explained, trying to cover up the bad parts of his story with almost useless information.

"Oh... Is he like you or is he like Feli?".

"Feli I guess? For a little guy he's flirty as fuck... And now I bet you are wondering why this has to do with anything, huh...?".

"Kind of. Are you actually straight, or do you just don't like me like that?" Antonio deadpanned.

Lovi raised a eyebrow then sighed "My grandpa wanted great grandchildren, and since Feli is gay as fuck...".

"Kids? That's it? Why don't you just adopt!?".

"He wanted the 'Vargas' blood to be carried or some shit.".

"Lovi... That's kinda stupid...".

"Ohhhh fuck you. That's my grandpa you're speaking about.".

"Okay okay! Why can't Romeo just do it?".

"He said he doesn't want kids, ever. Also, Grandpa wanted me to have them... I don't even fucking like kids mostly.".

".... If it's that big a deal you could have someone take your sperm and carry your kid for you- Woah woah wait! What does this have to do with anything! I just admitted my feelings to you, and you're worried about kids? That's the problem?".

"Uhhhh... Kinda...".

".... Have you even dated anyone, ever?".

"No...".

Antonio felt a smile go on his face and he started giggling.

"What's so fucking funny?!".

"Not all dating ends with marriage Lovi...".

"I know! I just want to find that one girl as soon as possible!".

"Do you even have a crush on a girl?".

"No.".

"Ever had a crush on a girl?".

"I've flirted with some, but no...".

"Have you ever had a crush on a guy?".

The Italian's face went red and he sighed.

"You aren't straight.".

"Yes I am.".

"No.".

"Yes.".

"No.".

"God damn I know my own sexuality!!!".

"Tomaaaaato~?".

Lovino went more red as he asked "What?".

"That is not the face of a straight guy having another guy call him his nickname in a flirty way.".

"Oh my frickin God! Shush!".

Antonio burst out into laughter as Lovino squinted.

"Fine, I'll admit it. I'm not straight okay? Caught me red handed, dick is just as fine as pussy, but don't you dare tell Feli.".

Toni laughed harder and barely said through his laughter "W-Why?".

"He'll be all 'I knew you liked guys Lovino! I can't wait to tell Luddy and-' yadayadayada." Lovino made his voice slightly higher for his impersonation of his younger brother. Antonio took a deep breath and he let a small smile go on his face "You're not mad... Right?".

"I'm not mad... Do you still like me like that, even after all of the bullshit that just happened?".

"Si....".

".........wanna go get pizza or something together next weekend...?" Lovino mumbled, very quiet and Antonio widened his eyes "Of course I'd like to.".

A huge grin went on Antonio's face as Lovino sighed in slight relief.

"One question though Lovi.".

"What?".

"Did you make the whole grandpa story up to get out of everything?".

"No, that was actually the problem with earlier, also me being Catholic doesn't help.".

"You really don't seem Catholic...".

"I know, that's my cover up so I can hide that I'm a demon, remember?"

((This was probably hella lame. Sorry.))
