Tino had calmed down, getting dressed again and Berwald was in the shower now, trying to forget the embarrassing moment. Tino hadn't heard anything from one, but he was sure the family knew by now what Lukas saw. How could he ever show his face again?! Poor Lukas saw his older brother like putty in Berwald's hand and is scarred for life. Tino shyly walked out the bedroom, his head down as he went to talk to his mom.

What did she want? Tino was frustrated and beyond embarrassed. He found her on the back porch with several family members, they all looked up at Tino. "Well, isn't it Mr. get some." One of the more cocky uncles said, laughing at Tino's embarrassment. Tino's cheek grew dark red, looking down. They knew. "Y-y-you wanted t-to see me...?" He asked his mom. "Yea. I wanted to see if you would like to go into town and get some coffee. But, you were busy."

Tino flushed more. If he could hide in a cave, he would. "He was busy." The uncle commented. That's when she turned to him and slapped the hard head. "How dare you make fun of my son?! Do you not have any sympathy or respect for people?!" She yelled. Tino went inside, too embarrassed to stay near them. He went back upstairs, plopping down on the bed and burying his face in one of the pillows.

Tino didn't move, not even as Berwald got out of the shower, dressed in pajama clothing, and went to make dinner with Bernard. Tino stayed in the room, refusing to leave the room. Not much was heard from Tino, or Lukas. Lukas was trying to erase the image out of his head by watching cartoons. Berwald was teased as well, he could hide his embarrassment more than Tino could.

Once dinner had been made, Berwald took a plate upstairs to Tino, and one for himself. He didn't feel like having everyone stare at him and make fun of him. He came into the room, seeing Tino curled up on the bed, under the covers and watching some video on his phone about kittens and puppies. Tino looked over at Berwald, blushing a bit before he sat up. "Sorry." He said. "I didn't think we would get caught." He looked down, playing with his fingers.

"It's alright." Berwald said, placing the plates on the night stand and sitting down on the bed. "You hungry?" Berwald asked. "A little." Tino said. Berwald handed one plate to Tino before grabbing the other and they started to eat. Tino turned on the tv, watching some cop show for the moment. Other than the sounds on the tv, it was quiet between the two. Hana was begging at the foot of the bed.

They finished, Berwald continuing to watch the show for a few more moments before going back downstairs with the dishes to help his brother clean up. The twins came upstairs after the dishes were clean, changing and getting into bed, Tino in the middle as always. Tino was fast asleep at this point, Hana in his arms as he slept. She kept watchful eyes on Berwald and Bernard.

"So, you and Tino?" Bernard asked, a hint of jealousy in his voice. Berwald blushed a little bit, but didn't show much emotion. "I don't want to talk about it." He said, looking down at his book. He decided to read the book Tino had wanted him to read. "Too bad. What happened?" Bernard asked. "I came to relax, he asked me a question then kissed me, his brother then barged in. Now, leave me alone." Berwald

"So, he started it?" He asked. Berwald decided to ignore his brother. Bernard got the message and turned over to go to sleep. Berwald read for a little bit before he decided to sleep for the night. He turned off the bed side light and then laid down. Hana took this as her being allowed to move and cuddle up to Berwald. She plopped against his chest, huffing as she did, and rolling onto her side.

Berwald watched her, both admiring and judging the sassy pup. He softly pet her, getting a soft wag of her tail before she fell asleep for the time being. Berwald took off his glasses and set them down.

Tino woke, and once again, the bed was empty. He sat up, rubbing his head. Hana looked at him, her tail wagging softly. He smiled at her and gently pet her. He then got up, fixed the bed, brushed his teeth, then his hair and debated whether to go downstairs. There was still the chance his family would tease him about yesterday. He decided to leave the room and go downstairs. It seemed oddly quiet, but learned that everyone was just waiting for breakfast.
