FAVOURITE SINGLES: All About Eve 'What Kind of Fool (Autumn Rhapsody)' (1988).

Adored this single when it came out, though I must admit that the single's cover got me to buy it in the first place. I am such a sucker for rich poetic pre-Raphaelite artwork.

Fools Like Us ch. 23

Pairings: Spamano, PruAus, France/Jeanne d’Arc Title: Afraid of What Lurks in Your Mind Words: 1,754 Summary: Human AU. What starts out as a normal Friday night for the “Bad Touch Trio” soon becomes an opportunity for Francis to use his favorite word in reference to his best friends. Unfortunately, Gilbert and Antonio couldn’t possibly have fallen for people who would return their feelings easily, but Francis is determined to help them out despite his own relationship-or lack thereof. Spamano, PruAus, France/Jeanne d’Arc

Roderich lay awake as sunlight crept over the sheets of his bed, which were pulled up to his own chin. Gilbert lay next to him, still snoring softly.  The blanket only came up to his hips, and when he wasn't feeling his self-loathing too deeply, Roderich allowed his gaze to creep over the scars and planes of muscle of his boyfriend's back.  He wondered what kind of things Gilbert could possibly have gotten into to scar him up that badly.              Letting out a soft sigh, he rolled onto his side and pillowed his head on his arm.  Gilbert had stolen the pillows sometimes during the night, and Roderich had let him.  Besides, there was no way he was taking them back now--even from here, he could see the puddle of drool soaking the sheets under Gil's cheek. Even if he didn't have to wash the sheets after the night before, he would definitely be doing it now.

     Antonio frowned down at his phone, wishing it would go off. Lovino hadn’t texted him since he told him he couldn’t make it to the movie that weekend. He’d hoped for more of an explanation, but it didn’t look like he’d be getting any. He wanted to see Lovino, but all texts to that effect had been ignored.      Sunday afternoon found Antonio still in pajama pants and without a shirt, scratching his tangled curls as he stared at the home screen of his phone in hopes of a response. As usual, nothing was coming, and he finally dropped the device on the counter when his stomach rumbled to remind him he hadn’t eaten that day. He sighed and pulled out a box of pasta; maybe if he made Lovino’s favorite food, he could entice the younger boy to come over when it was ready.      With that thought in mind, he quickly gathered the rest of the ingredients he needed. Lovino had cooked for him a couple times already, and he had a general idea of what the Italian liked.

     It took Lovino several minutes to figure out why he was in such a good mood when he woke up.  He lay in bed longer than was really necessary, his limbs spread haphazardly over the blankets, but there was nothing new about that. It was late in the morning on a Saturday, but that wasn’t it either.  His cell phone buzzed on the bed near his pillow, alerting him to a message, and he suddenly remembered.      He was dating someone.  Antonio, of all people.  It had been almost a month, and he’d fallen asleep texting the Spaniard the night before.  He dug the phone from the sheets, which tried desperately to hold his limbs in place. Unlocking it, he found three messages from Antonio.
