Aged Perfection Pt. 1 (Italy)

Your POV:

You cuddled up against what you assumed to be your husband then you were violently awoken by a crashing sound downstairs. You let go of the pillow you were grasping, got out of bed, and ran to the cause of the commotion. Accidently sliding across the floor and picking yourself back up, you questioned aloud. "What's going on?!"

Feliciano popped up from behind the island with a metal mixing bowl on his head. "Wah! Bella!" He cried out. "Mi dispiace di averti svegliato! (I'm sorry for waking you!)"

You sigh, relieved he wasn't hurt. "It's okay, calm down. But what are you doing?"

He removed the dish and set it aside. "I'm preparing for tonight's feast!" Feliciano jumped over to you and planted lots of smooches over your face.

"What's the occasion?" You asked, tilting your head while holding him as he cuddled you.

He gasped dramatically. "Bella! How could you forget?!" Feliciano grabbed the nearest calendar, flipped through it, and landed on a specific month and day. "It's your birthday! Remember?"

You blinked serval times before it hit you. "Woah! I forgot!"

He pouted. "Then I assume you also forgot that you told me when the day would come, you wanted the tastiest home-cooked meal ever!"

You laughed nervously. "I did? When?"

"Ve~. Six months ago."

"Six?! You remember that?"

He nodded happily, giving your nose a tap. "Yep! And homemade pasta and pizza is the way to go!" Feliciano skipped back to the kitchen, utensils spread across the countertop. "I got a little nervous remembering I have to make this even better than anything I've done before for your birthday!" He says, opening his eyes and seeing a sparkle in them.

"Don't stress out, please." You reached over and grabbed his face. "Whatever you do is bound to be great."

Feliciano turned bright red and grabbed your face in return. "I won't, I promise. I want to do this for you, bella."

You both let go at the same time. "Fine, but at least let me help with something!"

"Alright!" He grabbed a nearby piece of paper and a pen and started jotting down several things, handing it to you. "Here. I was so nervous about this day that I forgot to buy several items from the store. If you could pick these up, it would save time."

You read it over, nodded, straightened your back, and saluted. "You got it, boss!" You run up the stairs to get ready.

He sighed lovingly as he watched you from behind. "What a cutie."

>>>>>>

A bottle of chianti docg.

Extra cipollini onions.

Semolina flour.

And tuna cat treats~!

Grazie, bella! (Thanks, beautiful!) ('꒳')♡

Cat treats? But we don't have a cat, as far as I know.

You shrug and roll along with it.

Stopping by two stores. One gets the wine, and the second gets the rest of the listed items.

Arriving home, you watch Feliciano set up a romantic candle-lit table. A bouquet of azalea flowers as a centerpiece.

You see the man so focused on his craft that he didn't even notice you standing there watching him. Your lips curve into a smile, admiring his dedication and thanking the universe for how lucky you were to have such a fantastic husband, especially on your special day.

He lifts his head, catches a glimpse of you, and does a double take. "Bella! You're back!"

You lift the bags in both hands and grin. "I am! I got everything."

Feliciano kisses you on the cheek and takes the bags. "Perfect!" He sets them down on the counter.

"Anything else I can help out with?"

He shook his head. "Nope. You just sat down and wait for a few minutes. Principessa~. (Princess~.)" He cooed the last word, which made you blush.

Feliciano quickly cleaned up the kitchen and himself and laid out the plates of pasta, a pizza, wine glasses, and a large tiramisu cake. "There we go." He said, taking a seat across from you. A smile plastered on his face. "And Lovino's wife was kind and made the cake for today. Perks of having a baker-in-law."

You chuckled. "That's amazing! Everything looks delicious as always, Feliciano. I appreciate it more than you know."

He clapped his hands together. "You're very welcome! But before we dig in, I have a little surprise for you."

You questioned him and silenced yourself as you heard meows coming from the backyard near the kitchen. Feliciano opened the doors, revealing a big family of cats, and let them inside.

"They're so cute!" You squealed in delight.

Feliciano grabbed the bag of treats and shook it. "Okay, guys! Begin!"

You couldn't believe your eyes or ears as the cats all began to sing (meow) happy birthday to you. You laugh amusingly as they finish their short number. Each one getting a treat on the way out, and the man closed the door. "Ta-da!" He cheers and goes to wash his hands. Your laugh pleases his senses. "Did you like that?" He asks.

"How could I not?" You wipe a tear away from your eye.

"Wonderful. Now that that's done, we can dig in!"

Dinner and dessert were beyond incredible. The day and night seem to last forever and yet go by so fast as you and Feliciano chatted away while drinking the wine. He sat down his glass and reached under the table. "Bella, I have something else for you~." Feliciano chirped as he handed you a gift basket. "Here you go."

"Oh, Feli... you didn't have to. You've already done so much for me."

"Va bene! (It's okay!) Honestly, I wish I could give you more..." He mumbled sadly.

You took the basket in your hands and smiled bashfully. "I'll accept it just because it's from you." You removed the tissue paper that covered the basket. Multiple gifts sat inside. You started with more intense items like pepper spray and a small pocket knife. Then switching to the tamer ones like paintbrushes and white art canvases tagged with acrylic paint. "This is wonderful!" You pulled him by the tie and kissed him. "Thank you."

"Happy birthday, (Y/n)..." Feliciano whispered, hugging you tightly.
