Chapter 1: Plans
They Skyped every single day, sometimes for hours on end, sometimes Leo would end up falling asleep on Nico. They lived in two different worlds, and in all honesty it sucked. When it was three in the morning in Texas it was mid-day in Italy.
Nico was a pretty Italian with dark hair that sort of caressed his face, and this adorable smile that made Leo melt sometimes, it was strange. But he always had this Italian accent and sometimes Nico would forget to talk English and just speak Italian, then Leo's brain would just go 'huirenkmds.'
Leo always stayed up and waited for Nico to come home from his job and by the time they started Skyping the Hispanic was munching on so many snacks it was horrible. Nico chuckled lightly, and tilted his head to the side and spoke softly like he didn't want to wake someone, "Amore, non farti male."
The other looked up to scan Nico's face for a moment, even though he was over a million miles away Leo felt as if Nico really did care. He brought his hand up to his mouth and gave the Italian a smallish smile. Most of the time he thought that Nico thought he was a mindless idiot.
After Leo pushed his food to the side they'd stare at each other with small smiles.
Lovers, which are a million miles away from one another, that's what we are. When they Skyped that was his only thought which he thought was strange, he was about to say something when he heard a female voice coming from Nico's side. She spoke quickly.
"Nico! Vattene dal computer, dobbiamo pianificare il nostro matrimonio!" Leo didn't understand most of that, but Nico scowled and replied.
"Zitta donna! Non sei il mio capo, augh! IO ti odio! Perché dobbiamo sposarci?"
Sposarci...Leo knew that word. Married. Was Nico married? Was he actually in love with a gorgeous married Italian man? Leo shook his head some and glanced to the side, until he heard Nico speak to him once more.
"Leo."
The Hispanics head turned and looked at the other with a faint smile, "yeah?" He had a slight Texas twang which Nico has told him numerous times was the cutest thing on the planet.
Nico stayed quiet for a moment, and pressed his lips pressed into a straight line as he thought. Then something was chucked behind his head and he sighed. "I must go straighten something out for ten minutes; I can either hang up and call you back, or leave you on."
Leo swallowed lightly, and his smile turned sheepish. "You can leave me on I don't mind." Nico gave him a small nod then got up walking off yelling something in Italian.
He sat there and eventually let his head fall to the desk, while he fiddled with something in his lap, he wondered if Nico loved him sometimes, he probably shouldn't either Nico was married or he was getting married. Leo let out a soft sigh.
"Leo? Amore, ti sei addormentato?" Leo's head jerked up quickly, ten minutes passed and he hadn't even noticed.
"Sorry I was just playing with some wires..." He held up the little thing and smiled some more.
Nico chuckled lightly, and then they talked for an hour or so, then Leo finally fell asleep where he sat. Nico hung up and went to prepare dinner at his house.
Saturday, 11th December
Leo pressed a hand through his hair as he looked at his band; he and his friends started a band a few years back. It was Piper, Jason, Frank, and himself. There band seemed a bit awkward but there were probably the best in Texas.
While they were practicing one day Leo's computers started go off, it was five in the afternoon. So to him that was strange. He ignored it while Piper moved from where she was and clicked 'Answer with Video.'
