Chapter Text
Feliciano Vagras was just a regular college student. He was mistaken for a girl for a long time because of his feminine face, small build and cute facial expressions.
As a fresh new student, on his first day, he was like a fish in sand, not in his own plate.
But, on the first day, somebody who he already knew for a long time caught his eye. Any girl would be fangirling over him, but Feliciano was different. He was not a fangirl. He was a lover.
A tall, blonde man with incredible strength walked past him. It seemed like Feliciano felt something when he came past. That straight face, the blue eyes, the folders in his arms; everything screamed professionalism and attractiveness. As much as he didn’t want to acknowledge that - he was falling in love with his friend.
Ah, he was finally going to see who he is going to share his dorm with.
As a freshman, he was supposed to be aligned with someone older for this year, or so it was said on the colleges website.
“alright… all I gotta do… is to open ve door. What if he’s a really scary senior?” - he muttered to himself, speaking with his Italian accent intact. His soft, high pitched voice was quiet, but it still gave off a small echo in the campuses hall. His hands trembled, as he held a key in his hand. He slowly entered them into the key hole. Then, he twisted the keys. And finally… he opened the door.
Since it was about 6 pm, almost everyone is probably outside the campus out for buying coffee or other stuff. But as he looked at his rommate, he couldn’t help but notice that he seemed to be studying. He sat perfectly, taking notes from his laptop and books, fixing his glasses from time to time. Obviously, he didn’t notice just that. The man, that he was sharing his room with had carefully slicked back blonde hair, that shined gloriously from the suns evening, orange light, gorgeous blue eyes that were so bright, they outshined even the stars and mesmerised him, a still face, with a serious expression at all time. He was gorgeous. Feliciano was amazed by him. Then, it struck him. Wasn’t that Ludwig?
“Ve uhhh… hi! It seems…like you… are my… roomate…” - muttered Feliciano quickly, trying not to make eye contact with the German guy. His roommate turned his head around slowly, and lifted his navy blue glasses slightly up to see him better. He gasped silently at who he saw. He expected to live with someone… better, perhaps.
“Hello. You may come in. Are you… Feliciano Vargas? You look really familliar to me. Hm… since I’m one of the council members, I saw that you’re going to be a freshman here. But to live with you… I did not expect to” - said Ludwig with a serious look on his face. His hair moved gently, and so a hair strand got out; but he quickly put it back. He lifted his glasses up in an attractive way again and went back to study.
“Damn… he is one serious guy. But he’s just a bit too good at being serious…” - thought Feliciano to himself. He sat on his dorm bed, and he couldn’t help but admire his new roommate… Ludwig. The name seemed so pretty to the Italian boy that had never seen such a beautiful German. He stared at him, and the more he looked, the more lovable he seemed.
/Feliciano's thoughts\
“Ludwig! Ludwig! How do you say ‘I love you’ in German?” - yelled Feliciano, running up to Ludwig from across the school hall. He wrapped his hands around his shoulders, almost reaching him. Ludwig softly looked him in the eyes. He seemed to admire his little Italian ally. A soft, lively chuckle escaped his lips, as he smiled.
“Ich liebe dich. Why are you asking, Feli?” - said Ludwig softly, as he leant down lightly to reach Felicianos eye level so that they could maintain eye contact.
“Ludwig… Ich liebe dich” - whispered Feliciano into Ludwigs lips, as a smile came onto his face. Ludwig grabbed him by the neck, and kissed him on the lips. Feliciano held onto his tightly, keeping their distance as little as possible.
/Reality\
“Feliciano… Feliciano! Why are you staring at me like this? Stop it!” - yelled Ludwig as he snapped his fingers in front of Felicianos face.
Feliciano blinked. He gets easily lost in scenarios, and this time… it was not just a regular scenario. He was daydreaming about a guy, that he hadn't seen since highschool! He looked away from Ludwig, lightly flustered from what has happened. He ruffled his own hair, and then chuckled lightly from embarrassment.
“I-I’m sorry… I got lost in thought…” - muttered Feliciano with a blush on his face. He tried not to make eye contact, but Ludwigs eyes were too beautiful not to stare at.
“Please, control yourself. I don’t want to deal with such a thing again” - said Ludwig, as he sat back to his studies.
/Time skip\
Ah… first day of lessons. Feliciano woke up extra early, just to make sure that everything will go well.
He walked down the hall, looking around. He was kind of a menace, since he’s childish, and his life motto was that everyone only lives once.
He had talked with Alfred and Kiku as they were introducing the students to each other. It seemed, like they found a way to communicate with each other.
“Alfred… do you wanna do something crazy with me?” - asked Feliciano quietly, as a giggle popped out of his mouth. He side eyed Alfred, hoping for him to say yes.
“Whatever you say! You know, I’m always up to do something strange” - answered Alfred with a smile.
“Let’s press the fire alarm. That’s a classic” - whispered Feliciano, giggling after each sentence. His smile was innocent, almost pure. A smirk lingered on Alfred’s face.
“Alright, I see one here…” - muttered Alfred as he made his way towards the switch. He lifted up the glass, and clicked the button.
Ludwig was walking past, patrolling the halls at that time.
“What are you doing? Are you crazy? You need to go back to class! Now!” - barked Ludwig furiously, noticing that his fellow roommate and another freshman were planning to do something bad.
“Awww… I got caught again… sorry, I won’t do it again!” - said Feliciano, trying to make himself look even cuter and innocent, so that Ludwig would play along with his lies.
“I better see you in class by eight” - muttered Ludwig, crossing his arms while closing his eyes in disappointment. They rushed to class. They did not want to get in big trouble.
Shortly after, Alfred and Feliciano entered the lecture room. It was a big room with wooden walls, a bunch of double desks and a big screen.
“It seems like we will have to sit separately. The only free spaces are next to Ludwig and the weird Belarusian girl,” - Feliciano said that as he sighed, looking at Alfred. He didn’t want to sit next to the weird girl, but he also didn’t really want to be next to Ludwig.
“Let’s play rock paper scissors. That’s how we’ll decide! Winner sits next to Ludwig,” - said Alfred, as he pulled out his hand from the pilot jackets pocket. Feliciano shook his hand and began to play. Alfred picked paper, and Feliciano picked scissors.
“Aw, dude… well, see ya later!” - exclaimed America with the grin as he walked unpleasantly over to the weird girl. Feliciano made his way to Ludwig.
“Excuse me, Ludwig, would you mind if I sit here?” - said Feliciano, holding the chair of the desk. He had an embarrassed flush on his face, and he was kinda sweating, since Alfred and him were running to class.
“Sure,” - answered Ludwig coldly. His voice was monotoned, and almost like ice. Feliciano sat next to Ludwig, placing his cute, sky blue notebook onto the table and his basic pen. He took out his chromebook, which was decorated nicely with light blue stickers, stickers of cinnamonroll and Emu from project sekai. Ludwig glanced at his chromebook, his look wasn’t harsh, but curious. Then, he fixed his glasses and went back to studying.
Feliciano didn’t like studying. He preferred to play games during class and then rewrite his friend’s notes. But today, he wanted to study. He took out various highlighters of pastel colours, some note stickers, and a black pen. He took notes carefully, but got distracted quickly because of him imagining scenarios in his head. Whenever he was close to Ludwig, he imagined love scenarios of both of them. He was really deep in his thought.
/Feliciano's thoughts\
“Dear Feliciano, I know we’ve been roommates for such a short time, but I’ve developed feelings for you. Ich liebe dich,” - whispered Ludwig to Feliciano, as they were sitting to the same bed. Feliciano blushed. Emotions were running all over his body.
“Ludwig… I… I love you too… how do you say ‘kiss me’ in German?” - muttered Feliciano, blushing intensely as his curl formed a heart. Ludwig looked at him, his eyes not so icy and his gaze not that cold anymore. He even smiled.
“Küss mich,” - answered Ludwig gently, as he wrapped his arm around Feliciano. The Italian turned his head around, and their gazes met. It was a gaze of true love.
“Küss mich, bitte,” - whispered Feliciano onto Ludwigs ear, chuckling softly as his red cheeks were touching Ludwigs cold ear. A second didn’t pass, and Ludwig already pulled Feliciano into a lovable, passionate kiss.
/Reality\
“Feliciano, are you here? You are blushing like crazy! The class has already ended. Are you okay?” - exclaimed Ludwig as he shook Felicianos shoulder with full power. Feliciano blinked and looked at him. They have made eye contact. Feliciano immediately looked away, blushing even more.
“I’m s-sorry…” - Feliciano whispered that, still extremely flustered from the scenario in his head. Ludwig reached out a hand. They made eye contact again, but this time, Ludwigs gaze got softer. It seemed like Ludwig loved him, even a little bit. Feliciano didn’t want to have feelings for a man. He didn’t want to be gay. But oh, this man… he was perfect. But he can’t fall in love with his friend.
“Listen. I’ll help you bring your stuff to the dorm. It seems like you are tired.” - Ludwig said that as he grabbed Felicianos hand. Feliciano stood up, and Ludwig carried his stuff. The walk to the dorm was pretty quiet. Feliciano was kinda embarrassed that Ludwig caught him in the middle of a scenario.
“G-grazie for carrying my stuff. Should I buy you a coffe or something as a thank you?” - said quietly Feliciano with a smile as he looked at Ludwig. His gaze was cold, and he only looked at him slightly.
“No, but danke. It’s my duty as a student council member anyway,” - muttered Ludwig coldly as they got closer to their dorm. Feliciano entered, and Ludwig put his stuff onto his roommates desk.
“You should go to lunch now. The cafeteria is on the first floor. I’m going to the school council meeting,” - said the German quietly, as he shooed the brown haired boy away. He texted Alfred, asking to meet up with him.
He left his dorm.
“Alright, dorm number 102… that’s where Alfred is. He is living with his brother, Matthew,” - said Feliciano to himself, as he walked down the hall. He passed by multiple dorms, and dorm 102 wasn’t in sight.
“Room 104, room 103… room 102. Knock knock, Feliciano there!” - exclaimed Feliciano as he knocked on the dorms door. Soon enough, a boy that looked similar to Alfred showed up. He had a single hair curl, light hair, and a kind look.
“Hi! Where is… Alfred? We were going to go to lunch together! Are you his brother?” - exclaimed Feliciano, as he looked at the kind boy.
“Uh, I’m his brother, Matthew, and Alfred is now getting lunch with Ivan… would you mind to come with me?” - muttered Matthew awkwardly. He hugged a white bear plushy, and his gaze was really kind hearted.
“Of course! Why wouldn’t I like some new company! Come on Matthew, let’s go!” - exclaimed the Italian, patting the Canadians shoulder. Matthew quickly left the room, and went along with his new friend.
----------------------When they got to the cafeteria and got into the queue, they saw a large circle of people. In the middle, a guy with multiple brows and a splendid Frenchman were fighting and throwing curses at each other.
“Arthur! You’re so fucking pathetic! Why do you even give a fuck about my journals?” - said the French guy, grabbing Arthur by the neck.
“You bastard, let me go! Fuck you, you are such a bloody idiot! Francis, I’m telling you that seriously!” - yelled Arthur, as he was running out of breath. And just before Arthur suffocated, Francis let him go.
“You say ‘fuck you’ not knowing that it has a double meaning? You’re such a little slut, Arthur Kirkland…” - whispered loudly Francis. As Alfred hear the word “Kirk” uttered, he began singing “we are Charlie Kirk” loudly, before a Japanese guy put a hand over his mouth.
“‘Slut’ is a word that describes you, not me! You hook up with way too much wo-“ - yelled Arthur before Francis cut him off by pulling him into a kiss. Everyone was cheering, while Feliciano was in shock. The kiss was a wet, sloppy kiss, that everyone could see. Feliciano took a quick photograph of them making out before his turn to get food came. He sat at the lunch table with Matthew.
“Hey, Matthew, did you see that fight? They really are something… else!” - said Feliciano, not knowing how to start talking with somebody, such as Matthew.
“Uhhh… my brother participated in the fight. Arthur is my older brother, eheh…” - muttered Matthew, as he chuckled awkwardly.
“Anyways, do you have anything interesting to say? Ve~?”- asked Feliciano quietly, almost as gossiping. Matthew tilted his head.
“Oh, privet, Matvey!” - said Ivan, as he sat next to Matthew, and a soft blush came onto Matthews cheeks.
“Ah, so you’re… Ivan? Nice to meet you!” - Feliciano said that, as his voice trembled. He was intimidated by Ivan. He was scarier than he thought. What else to expect from Russians? Their accent is so scary and weird, and their presence is enough to make you shiver. But Matthew and Alfred seemed to be fine with it.
They talked for some time, gossiping about Francis and Arthur, joking about Kiku liking Alfred, and dissing teachers and student council members behind their backs.
“Dear Alfred F. Jones. Please make your way into the student council room. We saw your post on the schools web page” - said a school council member with short, light blonde hair, blue eyes and a Slavic look. She had a large chest. Was that the Ukrainian woman that Alfred adored and said that she was “fine shyt”? Alfred stood up, trembling. Her council member tag read “Miss Ukraine; Student Councils co-leader; Katheryna Braginskya”.They quickly went into the room and it seemed like Alfred was preparing himself to get scolded.
“Good luck, man” - said Feliciano quietly behind Alfred’s back.
