Why? Why had you let them both drag you out? Rema ended their grounding sooner than expected, at least the part of the grounding that made them have to stay at the mansion. Luciano still couldn't have his knives, and Flavio was still banned from fashion shows, which caused the two to mope around the estate for a few days. Then their father, Giovanni, told them that they should take you to Rome to make up for the lost time you had on your vacation. Sure, it sounded like a good idea in theory, but how was Giovanni to know that the brothers would continue their rivalry for your love and attention while on this mini vacation? Poor you, getting stuck in the middle of it all.

        The three of you took a plane to Rome from Florence, which was a rather short flight. You had the pleasure of sitting between the two on the plane. Flavio often played with your hands gently, running his fingers over every curve he could see. Luciano, on the other hand, would whisper to you little compliments or ask you about who you were just staring at. You usually wouldn't answer him since Flavio was preoccupying your one hand, or you would nod and or shake head, sometimes even shrug if you just wanted him to forget about it. Of course, there was also a fair amount of blushing on your end because of the boys constantly fawning over you, especially when Flavio would kiss your finger tips.

        Once the plane landed, you all got off with the other passengers and retrieved your luggage. You then got into a taxi and traveled just outside of the city's boarder to get to your hotel and settle in. Luciano told you to share a bed with him since Flavio was known to move around in his sleep. You agreed to his proposal after weighing your option. It was either potentially getting hit in your sleep or pushed off the bed by Flavio, or take your chances and hope that Luciano doesn't try to pull anything if you shared a bed with him. You chose the later option. You all then sat in silence until Flavio decided to speak.

        "So, I heard that the Colosseum is having an event today," he said nonchalantly.

        "Your point is?" Luciano inquired.

        "It'd be a good chance for (y/n) to see such a historic landmark up close. Plus, it's one that people can participate in. I heard it was a gladiator fight or something."

        "A gladiator fight you say?" Luciano hummed in thought before looking to you. "What do you say, (y/n)? Want to go see what it's all about?"

        You nodded and smiled. The experience sounded enjoyable and it would most definitely provide you with entertainment. With your head nod, the duo of brothers rented another taxi to drive back into the city.

        The Colosseum was spectacular in person to say the least. The city and event coordinators had the ancient landmark decorated and had actors pretending to be a part of the Roman guard. One of the event planners stood at a table with a few other people as they took down the names of people who wanted to be spectators and those who wished to be a gladiator for a small fee that would be given to a charity. Some people who were willing to pay a higher fee were given special ribbons with titles such as "senator" on them. They were then escorted to a special section of seats. When your turn to sign up came around, the event coordinator gasped and spoke wildly in Italian to you. You looked to Flavio and Luciano for translation assistance.

        "She says that you're very beautiful and that she has a proposition for you," Luciano said, beating Flavio to the punch.

        "Oh! She doesn't speak Italian?" the coordinator said in English.
