Giallo!

Yellow. Harry called him yellow. Of all things? Yellow?

OR

Louis was a mess. A stuttery mess of weak knees and grass stains on his fresh linen clothes, his cheeks blooming a natural pink that matched his sunburnt nose. Upon his return from University, his family abandon the bustling city of London to bask in the comfort of their summer villa. With such a property came maintenance, Louis' father hired a strapping young fellow with tanned skin littered with ink and a charming smile aided by dimples in both his cheeks. Between reading, baking and painting, Louis stares at Harry, he can't help it. They grow close under the sun of Greece in 1989.

The prompt is in the "thank you" chapter at the end. I hope I did it justice !!
This is a summer fic and I hope it teleports you into this universe.
I couldn't decide on the setting I wanted—I knew I wanted 1989 but I was stuck between Rome and Greece. I loved the energy of the Sistine Chapel and earth tones in rural areas but I also loved the architecture of Greece along with the blue, blue water. I ended up choosing Greece and just making Harry half-Italian and half-Greek: hence the title is yellow in Italian.
