Ezio Auditore x Reader

Imagine: Being able to dance with Ezio during Carnevale and having him whisk you away.

----

Ah, Carnevale, that wonderful time of the year that you enjoyed so much, it was also a special occasion for you. You loved everything, the costumes, the music, the food, but especially the dancing. That was your favorite part, being able to dance amongst the large crowds with partners hidden behind their intricate masks.

The faint music in the distance made you smile as you picked up your skirts to hurry down the cobblestone walkway towards the festivities. You were anxious see the events that would be going on tonight. You slowed your pace as you neared the crowd, your shoes clicking lightly on the stone. A smile tugged at your lips and you walked forward into the mass of masked people. The warm night breeze tussled your hair as you weaved your way around people to stand at the edge of crowd on a bridge overlooking the canals. You placed your arms on the stone and gazed out at the peaceful water, the moon shining brightly on the surface. You looked up suddenly in awe as fireworks began exploding in beautiful colors.

"Ah! Magnifico! Beautiful!" You whispered to yourself watching the fireworks light up the dark sky.

"Si, it is," A voice from beside you commented and a warm body pressed close to yours, "but not as beautiful as you amore." They said smoothly. You rolled your eyes from under your mask but smiled anyway.

"Ciao, Ezio." You greeted tilting your head towards him, you hummed in satisfaction, "Dressed up for the occasion, I see." You half teased, you couldn't fully make fun of him as you saw the mask concealing his rather handsome features. He gave you a chuckle and he grabbed your hand with his own gloved one and lifted it to his lips to press a kiss lightly to your knuckles.

"Come bella," he said, tugging gently on your hand, "let's dance." You let the assassin lead you out to the crowd. He let go of your hand and the two of you began to move in sync along with the people around you. You spun and twirled and laughed and smiled. The two of you moved in time with the music and popping of fireworks above.

The song soon ended and Ezio snuck his arm around your waist to pull you away from the crowd once more. You could feel his fingers ghosting over your waist and hip, as you pressed yourself into his side.

"Grazie signore, that was quite enjoyable." You said to him as you continued to walk further away from all the excitement. The music and laughter was beginning to fade. You gazed over at Ezio, searching his eyes for any emotions, seeing as his face was hidden. "Where are we going anyway?"

The assassin shrugged, "I didn't have any place in mind, we're just walking. Is there a problem with that uccellino?" You laughed at him.

"Little bird?" You raised an eyebrow, though he wouldn't be able to see it. "That's a new one."

"Do you dislike it?" Ezio asked, amusement in his voice.

"No, not at all." You answered with a smile, the two of you coming to a stop atop a bridge. You looked out at the water just as you had been doing before Ezio decided to whisk you away. His arm was still around your waist and he spun you around to face him. With his other hand, he reached up to undo the ties of your mask and he pulled it away. He smiled as your (color) eyes, full pink lips and lightly freckled skin were fully revealed to him.

"Your turn signore." You said in a singsong voice, crossing your arms with a grin. The assassin huffed playfully before removing his own mask.

"There we go, there's the handsome man I know." He quirked an eyebrow at your words.

"Handsome, huh?" You rolled your eyes at him.

"Si, you heard me, I know you're not hard of hearing." You jested, placing your hands over his shoulders and both of his came to your waist, his fingers massaging your back gently. Ezio said nothing but he bowed his head to press his smooth lips to your soft ones. It was a chaste kiss that became more passionate as he pulled you even closer, if that was possible. You broke apart when a large explosion of brilliant color lit up the night sky once more. Ezio leaned his forehead down to yours, nudging your nose lightly with his, causing you to giggle.

"Ti amo." You whispered, pecking his lips again.

"Ti amo anch'io."
