Lovino followed Antonio into the house, not sure what to expect, and couldn't make sense of any of his emotions. He was still a bit stunned from what had just happened. Antonio hadn't said anything, but he had kissed Lovino first. Did that mean he liked him? Or was he just messing around?

"What are you-" Lovino began, but he was silenced as Antonio turned around and kissed him again. Shit, he's a good kisser, Lovino thought, but pulled away. He wanted answers. Antonio stared at him, confusion in his eyes.

"F-fuck, bastard, don't just stand there molesting my sexy lips all day. Say something," Lovino muttered, turning red and looking away.

"What do you mean, Lovino?" Antonio asked, cocking his head to the side. Lovino bit his lip.

"W-well… fuck, do you like me too?" The younger boy said so quickly, that it took Antonio a moment to understand what he had said. Then he started laughing.

"Oh, Lovi, of course I do! I've liked you almost since the very moment I laid eyes on you! I thought it was obvious!" he said, taking Lovino's other hand in his own very warm one.

"Dammit, I never said you could call me Lovi," Lovino said, face turning red as he looked at their hands. Honestly, it made him happier than he had been in a very long time.

"Hmm, but you know I'll do it anyways. You never even complain."

"Fuck you."

"Mmmm. So what does this make us?"

"I don't know," Lovino shifted his feet. He really didn't know. He had never expected this to happen at all.

"Boyfriends?" Antonio asked, raising his eyebrows.

"B-bastard..." but he smiled nonetheless.

Antonio didn't say anything, just leaned down to kiss Lovino again. He wasn't sure how Francis would react to this news, and he wasn't sure about Gilbert. All he knew was that he was perfectly content to stay with Lovino like this forever, after waiting for so long. And all that time he had thought the younger boy hated him.

Lovino felt the same way, but was sure Feliciano would throw a party if he found out. Right now, that didn't matter, and he shyly wrapped his arms around the taller boy's neck, kissing him back.

Three months later saw Lovino laying down on Antonio's lap in the latter's backyard, their fingers laced together.

"It's nice out, isn't it, Lovi?" Antonio asked, staring up at the bright blue sky.

"Sure," Lovino murmured, eyes closed. "Fantastic."

Antonio laughed and squeezed his hand. It had taken a while, but Gilbert and Antonio were talking again. As it had turned out, Gilbert and Matthew had been having some relationship issues, causing the albino to snap. Luckily things were better now, and he and Antonio were on good terms once more.

When Antonio had told Francis the news, he had snorted and told him he took long enough. Antonio had been confused, but just went along with it. Gilbert hadn't said much, but he smiled and told Antonio the same thing.

For Lovino, telling Feliciano about his new relationship with Antonio had turned out to be a very bad idea. Lovino was almost right on the spot when he thought that his brother would throw a party. Feliciano had skipped around the house all day, shouting that fate had come true, proclaiming that he had seen the signs in the pasta. He only shut up when Lovino whacked him in the face with a pillow. Stuffed with a couple rocks. The younger brother had fallen to the floor, and Lovino stormed out the back door, only grabbing his jacket before he left.

Ludwig had been over (much to Lovino's great displeasure) and had watched the whole thing wide-eyed, only helping Feliciano when Lovino had left (to go back to Antonio's house, presumably). Feliciano had gotten back up when Ludwig kissed him on the lips.

"A kiss from the prince~!" Feliciano cheered, and Ludwig turned a deep shade of red that could compete with Lovino's blush. Or Antonio's tomatoes.

So as Lovino lay there, under the warm spring sun, he felt that at long last, everything had worked out. The pieces had all been put together, and everything was finally the way it was supposed to be. He couldn't help but smile, and Antonio bent down to kiss him, happy to see Lovino smiling. The bracelet Lovino had given him after winter break was still on his wrist, and the silver turtle glinted in the sunlight.

They both knew that things were perfect, and neither of them could ask for something better.

A/N: And, thus concludes this story. I want to give everybody who has given me notifications for this story a BIIIIG hug. Thank you so much for putting up with everything. I know this chapter isn't really wonderful... To be honest, I got really lazy OTL

I'm quite happy to finally be done with my first fanfiction, and I know it definitely isn't the best.

But now, time for the surprise!

I'm writing another Spamano story! It's going to be very different from this one, but I can guarantee that it will be much, much better. The first chapter will be coming out very soon, so keep an eye out for that! Thank you to all my lovely readers for everything you have given me!
