Antonio's POV

I wake up to the sound of yelling. "Qué?!" I look around, but my eyes are met with nothing but darkness. I feel around with my hands as my eyes adjust, and they land upon a mess of blonde locks.

Emma...

I smile and kiss her forehead. My thoughts were interrupted by the screams once more. I follow the noises, and they lead me to the basement stairs. I creep a long the dark hallway, and reach out to grasp the doorknob.

"Stop it, Lovino!" (Name) yells in frustration.

"No."

"I-It isn't fair!"

"So?"

She stays silent as the bed creaks. "You're so unfair..."

"I know," Lovino laughs smugly.

I quietly turn the handle, prepared to scare the living day lights out of the two. "SORPRESA!"

I throw open the door, and (Name) shrieks, falling off the guest bed. "What the hell, Toni?!"

I gasp between laughs as I reply, "I couldn't help it!"

"Fottuto idiota!" Lovino growls and tackles me to the ground, putting me in a head lock.

"Sorry, sorry," I say, catching my breath. "What were you guys doing?"

"Playing super smash bros," Lovino tightens his hold, squeezing the air out of me.

"Lovino kept knocking me off the map," (Name) pouts, peaking out from behind the bed.

My cousin releases me and he stands, crossing his arms. "It's not my fault you suck."

A laugh escaped my chest as I watch their childish argument.

Your POV

"I best be leaving, now," Toni gets to his feet and rubs the back of his neck with a smile. "You two have fun- but not too much fun."

"Yea, yea, we know, old man," Lovino waves off his warning and grabs his controller once more.

I sit on the bed next to him and gaze at the screen. "Gotcha, Toni. Have fun, but not too much fun."

"Esa es mi hermana pequeña," he smiles sweetly and closes the door. (1)

We begin our game once more, me being Marth and Lovino being Ike. "Do you always use Ike?"

"Yes," he nods. "Do you always use Marth?"

"Yep," I whisper, planning his death in my mind. As the count down begins, I begin my plan. "Did you know that Ike is Marth's long lost older brother?"

Lovino throws his controller in the air and stares at me in disbelief. "WHAT?!"

"Begin!" The narrator says and I immediately start attacking Ike.

"You deceiving bi-"

"GOT YA!" I yell as Marth's sword throws Ike from the map. "In your face!"

"You cheated!" He gently knocks into my shoulder with an amused expression.

"You were too good to beat, so I had to resort to drastic measures."

"You're annoying sometimes."

"I know," I lean my head on his shoulder, a content smile on my face.

He lays his head on mine as the screen changes to the score screen. Marth does a pose of victory, while Ike pouts, clapping in the background. Lovino chuckles and wraps an arm around my shoulders. "You're strange."

"I know," I wink.

He stays quiet for a second, as if he were thinking. "I want to meet your grandmother."

"What?" My eyes shoot open. "Why?"

"I don't know," he twiddles his thumbs uncomfortably. "I just want to meet your family. The one you grew up with."

"I didn't exactly grow up with them," I say. "I grew up with my mom, dad, and brother Nikolai."

He raises an eyebrow in confusion. "Why didn't Lukas and Emil live with you?"

I open my mouth to reply, but it slowly closes. "I-I don't know."

"It just doesn't seem right..."

"I agree," I tap my chin. "I'll ask my grandmother tomorrow."

"Great idea," he says, getting under the covers. I kiss his forehead and begin to stand up. "Wait!" He grasps my wrist.

"Lovino?" I look over my shoulder.

"Can you sleep with me?"

"Why?"

I see his cheeks flush as he averts his hazel gaze. "I don't like sleeping alone in strange places."

I laugh and caress his cheek. "But, I-"

Before I could finish, he wraps his arms around my waist and holds me as I attempt to squirm out of his grasp. "Lovino! Let go!"

"I'm tired."

"Exactly. So let go."

"Nah," he nuzzles into my chest, and his breathing goes quiet.

"You little jerk!" I lightly poke his cheek. "Don't fall asleep now."

Ha arms squeeze tighter, and I realize I won't be escaping this one.
