Heaven is a place on earth

6- Total eclipse of the heart

 

Feliciano shivered when he felt the cold air shove against him while he opened the club door. Stepping out, he grabbed one of the sides of his coat pulling it to reach farther around his body as he hugged himself. His thoughts were going practically 100 miles a second. He was finally going to this guys house. And for what? He didn't care much. Just the fact this rollar coster ride of a relationship was getting closer and closer to the peak. Feliciano was excited, the other was kind. And brought him peace in his own way.

Ludwig had his hands in his pockets casually while leading the other to his car. The blonde couldn't say he felt completely sober but it was hard to tell. Tipsy, in his mind that was good enough to drive. Sad to say it, but he'd drove in worse condition. Many many times.

Feliciano glanced at the other. Watching as he unlocked his car. The italian stood there awkwardly for a bit, listening to cars zoom by loudly. But got in. Noting the new leather and artificial cherry smell. It was a bit nauseating, cherry wasnt his favorite. But the blonde who was putting his keys in the ignition was. So certainly fair enough. Felicianos hands felt his seat, looking foreward as they pulled onto one of the busy citys roads.

The smaller male watched as he saw women on every street corner. Shady cars pulling into alleyways, selling who knows what. It was a relief. He may be sick right now, but he could be sicker. It was like a fu*ked up cautionary tale to him.

The buzz of it all got to him. In those streets it was always so loud. Yet if he were to be alone in them he would be able to hear a pen drop. He knew the 80's so far had been high on crime. An absolute boom of hate crimes didn't help that most personal fear. He wished he lived in the suburbs, some place with flowers, and hills lined with dark green grass. Not a city like this.

Ludwig cleared his throat, not breaking his stare at the road infront of him. "My place is only a few minutes away." He seemed nervous. That made Feliciano smile. He certainly was glad it wouldn't be a long drive. He reached over and turned on the others fancy car radio.

🎶Together we can take it to the end of the line
Your love is like a shadow on me all of the time
I don't know what to do and I'm always in the dark
We're living in a powder keg and giving off sparks
I really need you tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight
Forever's gonna start tonight🎶

Feliciano relaxed against his seat, closing his eyes. His body hurt. It felt like his bones even ached. Lovino had even been worried about him lately. Making him home cooked everything. And he knew it was for him, it so happened every meal the other would make would be one of his favourite foods. The worst part was he usually nowadays couldn't even choke more then a single bite down.

They soon pulled up to a town house, a fairly nice one at that. Feliciano opening his eyes to silently analyze it. It was a nice place, black and grey in a modern chic fashion. Not big but you could tell from the outside it was spacious. He unclicked his seatbelt, looking at the other smiling. "I figured you'd have an apartment."

Ludwig just shrugged, not knowing why he'd think that way. Sort of figuring it was a classy way of saying he thought he was broke. Feliciano not quite meaning that. Jeez that guy could be clueless. "Mhm." He pulled his keys out, getting out. Feliciano doing the same. Pretty anxious to see what the inside of the others house looked like. He had zero clue why, maybe because it just remotely had something to do with the other. He wanted to know him even better. Better then the dark secrets they'd shared.

Ludwig walked up the driveway, unlocking the door. Pushing the door open, moving his hand on top of it to hold it open for the other. Who obliged, stepping in looking around.

Painfully normal.

There were some beer bottles on the coffee table of the living room, but this was Ludwig so that was a give in. "Nice place." The redhead took his shoes off at the door, Ludwig doing the same.

Ludwig looked around as if checking what everything looked like. Making sure nothing was out of order. "Thank you." He moved to sit on the couch patting the spot next to him for the other to sit. "I was thinking we could watch a movie? Just relax. No blarring music. No over-air conditioned buildings."

Feliciano rolled his eyes playfully sitting next to him, looking in his eyes. God was he dreaming? The other had the kindest face he'd ever seen. Stern features, but those eyes....they made up for it. He couldn't help but scoot closer to the other, maybe a bit too close.

Ludwig didn't notice and then had gotten up, though just to put a VHS tape in. "This is a good movie. You'll like it."

Once he sat down and glanced back at the other, then he froze. Something about Felicianos expressions were drastically different. He looked like he needed something. A light pink blush on his face. The German watched as he saw the other look him from his eyes to his lips.

It was obvious, they both knew. They'd known for awhile at this point. But to have the courage to rip off the band aid that was make the transition out of being platonic....

Screw it. The movie could wait.

Ludwig grabbed the other by the back of his neck, pulling him closer and kissing him passionately. Felicianos eyes went wide, kissing back. Suprised the other did so. Thoughts were racing through his head non stop. He wrapped his arms around the others waist pulling him closer.

The kiss continuing. The movie softly on in the backround. The blonde looked a little flustered but confident in himself. The whole time being so gentle and sweet.

That had to of been the best night of Feli's life.
