Assassin's Creed [One Shots] **COMPLETED**

Sweet Apologies [Ezio x Reader]

I was a young artist, thanks to my older brother, Leonardo Da Vinci (Apologies if I incorrectly spelled his name). I had made many pieces in the past, which had gotten a lot of praise from the people of Italy. I also have tried to make sculptures and amazing inventions, but unlike my brother, I wasn't skilled enough to do so. On the plus side, I had many books to help myself look at the sketches.

Now, I wasn't like one of those lonely girls stuck in tower from the books or anything. My brother and I were actually close with another family, the Auditores. I wasn't close to all of them, but I was very close to Claudia -- the sister of the boy who flirted with me most of the time.

I honestly found it cute when he would flirt with me, but I always played hard to get. He would usually call me 'his love' and 'dearie' in Italian. This made me blush and giggle lightly, but I tried not for fall for him. Last time I had fallen for a boy, I was left with a broken heart and i believing that I wasn't worth anyone's time. I don't want the same thing to happen again - I'm too fragile to love..
This had upset Leo a lot, but I didn't do nothing about it. Ezio found out as well and promised me that he wouldn't do such a thing, but that's what he said too.. I was dumb for assuming Ezio would do the same. Come to find out, I heard that same boy was beaten up the next day... Wonder why...

Today, i was in a good mood, so I decided to paint a picture. I walked to town and sat a respectable distance away from the small shop I decided to paint. It was a small flower shop that held so many beautiful flowers. It smelled of roses, tulips, and so many other flowers that I loved. But {favourite flower} was the one I loved the most. I admired each detail and the colours and I loved the sweet scent it gave.

I sat down with my painting supplies and began to paint. I hummed a few tunes while painting. I just finishing up when a boy about 10 years of age came running. He knocked the canvas' stand over, making me swipe paint over the entire painting itself. I gasped and jumped up, "WHY YOU LITTLE-" Before I could even finish my sentence, I was knocked on my bum (butt ;-;). The male figure who knocked me down quickly apologized and continuing to run off. "Ow.." I said hazy, then standing up again. "I can't believe this... I spend two hours painting, and just as i put finishing touches, someone destroys it!" I sighed loudly, earning a few annoyed stares, but I just gave them a dirty look.

I made my way back the small place I call home, managing to keep calm. I burst through the door, startling Leo. "Oh, Y/N!" I gave him a look that said I-want-to-kill-someone, but uttered a small apology. I went to my bed, carelessly tossing my things to the floor. I faceplanted the pillow, wanting to scream, but I didn't. I just told myself that I wouldn't attempt to draw it again, until I calmed down and was ready again (I do this all the time...). I rolled over onto my back and stared at the ceiling.

knock, knock

I looked over at my door, "Yes, Leo?" He cracked the door open a bit, "Someone came to see you." I clenched my eyes closed, "Tell Claudia th-"

"Oh, it's not Claudia, it's Ezio," spoke another voice. I opened my eyes, "Oh.. okay." I sat up, "Come in." Leo opened the door the rest of the way, and let Ezio walk in. "Salute, Y/N," Ezio spoke, shutting the door (I believe that is 'Hi' in Italian, so apologies if I'm wrong). I smiled slightly, "Hello, Ezio.." He continued to stand, holding something behind his back. I rose an eyebrow, "What's that, hmm?" He shrugged, smirking a but, "Oh, I dunno.. (Favourite flower)." He pulled his arms out in front of him, revealing the flowers. I gasped, "Oh, Ezio! How did you know-"

"I saw your painting... You had (favourite flower) coloured, the rest as black abd white..?" He said, interrupting me. "You say that as if it was a question?" I smiled, curiously. "I just never really seen a black and white painting is all," he replied. I nodded.

He handed the flowers and I took them, smelling the wonderful, sweet scent. I stared in awe, until I wondered how he saw my painting. "How did you know what I was painting?" He frowned a bit as he saw the messed up painting sprawled across the floor. "Well, I was chasing down my little brother, and I saw your painting supplies fall. I tried to catch him, but you accidentally got in the way, making me trip you. I wanted to help, but my mother would've lopped my head off if I didn't have him home by the time she returned. And I did get him home eventually, and I went back to buy you some flowers until noticed you were gone. I just assumed you came back home," he explained. I nodded and smiled, "Thank you, Ezio." I hugged him, "That's actually one of the kindest things someone has ever done for me..." He smiled and didn't hesitate to hug back. "I'm sorry.." He apologized. I looked up at him, "The flowers were apology enough.." He he smiled and kissed me. Let's just say, I didn't hesitate to do the same.
