Chapter 2

They were coming for him. He knew it. The way the shadows twisted, the way they elongated, the evil eyes that looked out from the eyes. The eyes glowed a sickly gold and the other set was a hazel-green. The soft sounds that were coming from all directions, soft whispers of what They were going to do to him. He tried as best as he could to block Them out. To hide, but They were looking for him. They were always looking for him. And sometimes they found him. Other times he was able to hide, but that was very rare. When he did hide, like now, They continued to taunt him. Their whispers would decrescendo before the strength returned like a sonic boom. The shadows would twist and elongate, strengthen and weaken. A touch of cold would come and go, much like a cat. But if They were being compared to cats, he knew that their forms would be twisted. Their faces would have ugly smiles, some even disfigured. Their bodied would grow, grow bigger and bigger until-that was usually when Feli came home. Those times he understood nonno's words, Feli truly did remind him of an angel when They were chased away. Feli would stand there in his clothes, whatever he was wearing always looked angelic, as the light gave him a halo. Feli was able to comfort him, to chase Them away. Even if he was the older brother, his amber-eyed brother was his savior. When God couldn't reach him, He knew more than enough that God only protected those that could repent their crimes-something he couldn't do, Feli was there. Feliciano was his saving grace. So as the warmth surrounded him, something he could only half feel from his brother, he immediately surrendered control and relaxed.

"You're safe Lovino."

The moon shined brightly, casting a glow to the park. Gentle waves disturbed the moon's reflection, fish cut through the water smoothly. Streetlamps light the jogging path and cast long shadows into the darkness, the moon's touch could not reach certain areas. The birds had all gone to sleep long ago and the only animals alive were the prowling felines hunting for their next meal. However, the pounding slap of shoe against pavement scared these animals away. The beats followed no particular rhythm, in fact it seemed like they would increase tempo before they ritardando(1) and increased again and again before slowing.

Feliciano ran as fast as he could, but even then he felt himself slow down. It had been a 3 mile run from the hall to this park and he still had another mile to go, even if he had been a star track runner in high school, he hadn't run like this in years. Not to mention he was in jeans, not the best material to run in. The Italian could have taken a cab but then he would have had to sit through traffic and time was a important factor. Feliciano's mouth was dry, he had not drunk anything at the party, and he could feel the sweat beading down his face. But he couldn't stop. Not when his brother needed him, his brother who had always protected him. The brunet berated himself; why did he leave him alone? Feliciano knew very well what his brother could do to himself if he got panicked enough to act on some of his darker thoughts. The only comfort was that he had spoken to his older brother, which meant he was still in the right mind when he called. But what about now? The Italian sped up, he was almost there and he could see the apartment building. The worries wouldn't stop; was he ok? Did he have a flashback? A panic attack? Did he hurt himself? Was he still in the apartment?

Finally he arrived at the modest sandy color apartment building. It was only three stories high and 5 units per floor. Feliciano and his brother lived on the second. Not too close to the bottom that they wouldn't see someone coming but not at the top where there was nowhere to run, Feliciano thought as he took two steps at a time. In less than a minute Feliciano was at the apartment, #203, and fumbling for his keys. It took him half a minute to get the key in the lock and then he was bursting in to the room.

"Fratello!? Fratello!? Where are you?" Feliciano's voice echoed in the silent apartment. For a moment Feliciano feared that his brother had wandered into the streets again, however two small meows had the Italian looking down. Ezio(2) and Nario(3), his brothers and his cats. Nario and Ezio were twins and looked almost exactly alike, however unlike Nario who was white with brown patches of fur, Ezio had orange patches. Not to mention Nario had a curl that was on his left and Ezio's curl came from the top of his head.

Ezio meowed grumpily and walked into the dark, Nario giving Feliciano a worried look before following his twin. The Italian followed too, knowing that if he followed them then he would find his brother. He was right. Under the covers of the twins shared bed, his brother's shaking form was easy to see. Especially when the lights were turned on, though they also illuminated the mess in the room. A hazel-green eye peaked out from under the covers and soon a whole head of dark brown hair was out of the blue bed cover. His brother seemed to hesitate before moving the rest of himself out of the blanket, Feliciano gently sat on the bed and brought his scared older brother into a hug. He felt him relax and the younger Italian gently stroked his brother's hair, whispering Italian to him.

"You're safe Lovino." Feliciano smiled sadly as he heard his brother's soft snores and tear stained cheeks. He put the older Italian in bed and made sure he was tucked in, Ezio and Nario stood off to the side. Feliciano rubbed his forehead as he sat on the bed, he really wanted to cry but if he broke down now then it would be hard to get back together. So he took a deep breath and pushed himself off the bed and out of the bedroom, Ezio and Nario following him. Cold marble was always the best to touch when he tried to think, so the kitchen was the best place to go. Feliciano got out some water, he was thirsty, and sat on the counter top. Nario jumped onto his lap but Ezio had left to go do whatever cats do.

Tonight reminded Feliciano he couldn't always be with Lovino, especially as he would be getting married soon. Feliciano hadn't even told Ludwig that he had a brother, especially not one that was…..troubled. While Feliciano loved Ludwig with all his heart, and more, he found it hard to trust completely. Five years ago broke that ability to trust completely, it broke him and his family. Especially Lovino. Lovino needed help, something he could completely admit to. When they had moved to America from Italy two years ago, Feliciano thought he could help his brother. He thought that if he loved and cared for him, it would help. It did. A little. Feliciano could see that it only made his brother clingy and while he loved his brother, the younger Italian knew this type of clinginess was not healthy. The level was close to incest which was a sin, especially between two males.

'Well I already committed one of those sins.' Feliciano thought wryly, drowning his glass of water and booting Nario gently off his lap.

The Italian decided to take a quick shower, he needed to get all the sweat and grime off his person. Once that was done, the amber eyed male slipped on some pajamas before heading to bed, Nario and Ezio trailing behind him. Lovino unconsciously moved a bit farther away, Feliciano knew when he woke tomorrow morning , Lovino would either be as far from his as possible or as close as possible. It usually deepened on what Lovino dreamt about. Feliciano felt himself slipping into dreamland, one thought on his mind.

Get Lovino help.

This is exactly what he set to do the next morning. Feliciano made sure to be quite as he got ready to go out, the slightest sound could wake his brother up. Lovino, luckily, remained blissfully sleeping. Once the Italian knew that everything was shut off, except for the heater as even in spring it was a bit cold, he left the apartment. The amber eyed male made his way down the street, breathing deeply and gaining some courage for what he would be doing. He hoped Lovino followed the note he wrote him.

'Dear Lovino,

Good morning! How are you feeling? I hope you got lots of sleeps, I was extra careful not to wake you this morning! I even avoided hitting my knee on the dining room chair! :) isn't that grande!? If you wouldn't mind, could you feed Ezio and Nario? Speaking of breakfast, I have some of your favorite food in the microwave, just warm it up. I had to go out this morning to…..uh….go for a walk. Please stay inside, you had quite the night! I'll be back by three in the afternoon.

~Your Fratello'

Lovino snorted as he walked down the side walk. Like he would ever listen to Feliciano, the kid was 2 years his junior and a crybaby. Or so Lovino told himself. On the inside he knew he should listen to his brother and that his brother was probably a lot stronger than he was. However, during the day Lovino could push those thoughts away, he could not be the baby he turned into, nor the broken one. Lovino could be as strong as he wanted to be, on the outside. The Italian ignored all these feelings, ignored how even in the daytime people looking at him made him sweat, he ignored that when he was touched he flinched. He even ignored the small voice in his head that called for Feliciano, the only person he could trust. The only person he would allow to touch him.

"Stupid Feli. Forgetting to buy cat food. It's like asking me to go out." Lovino muttered as he continued to walk down the streets, suspiciously glancing at everyone that looked at him. Lovino hadn't noticed what he was wearing; only a long night gown that looked much like a dress.

Lovino finally stopped at a bright shop, the shop outside was a peach color with cute little symbols on them. 'CARRIEDO PETSHOP!' was painted in bright colors. Lovino felt nauseous from looking at all the brightness, but this was the nearest pet shop. Sighing, the Italian entered.

Feliciano nervously bounced on one foot as he waited for the elevator to drop him off at the 18th floor. He couldn't believe what he was going to do but the Italian knew that his brother needed help, help he could not give but someone else may be able to. The elevator dinged open, Feliciano took a step out of it without his usual excitement of seeing who he was about to see. Room 1800 was at the beginning of the hall so Feliciano didn't have to walk too far, but he found himself too nervous to ring the doorbell. The amber-eyed man started to pace, he didn't know if he could do this. Telling him meant admitting he had lied about a part of his life.

'Remember, this was also for Lovino's protection.' One part of his mind argued.

'But lying is still lying.' The other part argued back.

'Ludwig will understand. He'll understand the need for secrecy when the situation is explained.'

'Will he really? You lied about half your life to your fiancé' By now Feliciano had stopped in front of Ludwig's door. In his internal argument, Feliciano failed to notice the door opening.

"Feliciano?" said man whipped his head up to see a concern Ludwig, his hair was drenched in sweat and was laying down. If this hadn't been a more serious situation, Feliciano would be drooling and throwing himself at him.

"Ummmmm…Can I come in please?" Ludwig raised his eyebrows, now he was worried. Usually Feliciano would greet him with a kiss on the lips and entering without asking. However he let the Italian in. As Feli didn't automatically go for the comfortable couch, Ludwig grew alarmed.

"Are you sick?" Feliciano almost tripped over himself when he heard Ludwig ask him that. Turning around, the Italian saw the German scanning him from head to toe. The amber eyed man mentally smacked himself. Of course Ludwig would notice, his fiancé always noticed when important things were a mess. Gathering his courage, again, Feliciano shook his head and took Ludwig so he was sitting on the floor, he knew the German wouldn't want sweat on his couch.

"Feliciano?" The blond asked worriedly, he was starting to get scared. Feliciano looked so serious that it scared the German. Ludwig knew this was important, just not on what was so important.

"I have to tell you something. Something that I've lied about." For once, Ludwig finally noticed, Feliciano's eyes were wide open.

Hello~ how did you guys like this chapter?What awaits the two Italian brothers? Please review. Leave me a review and I end up working on it 3 times faster than if I didn't get one. I want to hear all your guys wonderful feedback. Which voice inside Feli's voice do you agree with?

Also, Lovi and Feli have been through a lot so if they are 'OOC' than sorry. But based on how they were raised in this fic and what happen i think they're handling this pretty well. But they will eventually get as close to in character as possible.

I had promised you guys all a meeting between Tonio and Lovi, Well i lied. Next chapter will have the two meeting. I had overestimated how the story line was going to go.
