had been in the processes of hitting on a few lovely ladies when he hears the familiar and very melodic voice of his favourite favourite

grandson ever! He excuses himself and heads off to look for him spotting him not to far off and sneaking up behind him before wrapping his

arms around him and pulling him into a super tight hug. "Feliciano! My cute grandson ever!!" He coos cuddling him tight against his chest.

hums happily at the sound of girly giggling somewhere, though for once not getting distracted by it on his mission. He yelped as he felt_

a pair of strong tight arms around him, though once he hears the voice and recognises the familiar scent he laughs in joy. "Nonno!"

(( strong arms tight around* ))

grins and cuddles him for a bit longer before releasing him. "Si! It's been much too long!!"

laughs heartily and leans back in the embrace, holding safely onto the painting still. Once he was released he jumped around and smiled_

brightly at him. "Ve, it's so good to see you again~!"

spots the painting and his brow quirks up curiously. "What's that?" He asks as he tries to get a look of the artwork.

"Ah!" He gasped a bit dramatically and took a quick step back. "No peeking! I have to explain first~!" He smiled.

laughs and straightens. "Okay okay. Care to do the honours?" He smiles

"O-okay!" He wiggled a bit in excitement as he spoke. "You know how your birthday was a few days ago? Mi dispiace, but I didn't finish the_

painting until yesterday!" He took a deep breath, and then quickly continued. "Anyway! I painted you a picture~!" He then turned the canvas_

around, revealing a traditional painting of a woman dressed in an ancient toga, looking quite beautiful in a field of grape vines.

(( I read that they celebrate the founding of Rome 21st of April in Rome.))

(( Yes, I hear that too. ))

gotten excited and waits in anticipation. When the canvas is turned his breath is taken away and he can't help but gasp as his roam over

every inch of it. "Feliciano!! CHE BELLO!" He exclaims as he lets his hand pretend to trace over the contours of the woman's figure. "I

know exactly were I will put this." He smiles and brings the smaller male into another tight but affectionate hug. "Grazie~"

watches him carefully, smiling brightly in relief when it turns out he quite likes it. "Ve~ I'm so glad you like it!" He laughed and hugged_

him back just as affectionate. "Di niente, nonno!"

ruffles his hair and kisses the top of his head. "Want to go for some pasta?"

wiggled happily, his arms waving slightly like they would when he was excited. He glanced up at him a tad questioningly. "Are you sure you_

want to carry the painting to a restaurant?"

laughs and ruffles his hair some more. "No, I was thinking we can go back to my place and cook pasta together. So still up for it?"

chuckles and nods. "Sí, of course. I'd never say no to pasta~" He singsongs the last word lightly.
