(Yep but of course only when Bridge can't understand him)
"Ha… sì…" Scipio's face was a bit flushed as well. What else could I say? "Penso che tuo padre abbia sbagliato a mandarti qui per il tuo aspetto. Sei carino, non un mostro."

((I mean I would too))
"Are…you're blushing too," Bridge told him, smiling a bit more.

I'm glad he can't understand me… Scipio smiled weakly, his blush staying. "Sei l'unico che non mi ha pensato un mostro per quello che ho fatto."

Bridge didn't respond that time, only tilting his head with the same little smile. He, of course, had no idea what Scipio was saying, but he liked it nevertheless.

(laughs in Italian )
"Quello che sto dicendo è che mi piaci, ma ho una reputazione, quindi non posso dirtelo in inglese in questo momento…" Scipio laughed softly, looking away.

Bridge let his legs dangle from the bench, not knowing what he was saying, but knowing it was something that made him blush.

Scipio turned back to Bridge and held his hands up a bit for emphasis, his cheeks still flushed. "Rendiamo le cose più facili. Sono gay."

"You're…you're gay. You like…boys," Bridge repeated, tilting his head.

Scipio nodded, blushing a bit more. "Non solo ragazzi, ma voi in particolare."

That, though…Bridge didn't know that. "I…don't know what that means," He admitted shyly.

"S-Sono gay per te." Scipio gestured towards Bridge, pretty red by now.

"You…gay for…me?" Bridge asked, face flushing and eyes widening a little.

Scipio hesitated before nodding a bit and looking away again.

Bridge paused for a moment before smiling wider. "Really? I mean…really?"

Scipio nodded again, still avoiding eye contact. "È piuttosto strano. Non sono mai stato attratto da qualcuno prima d'ora…"

Bridge didn't know what this meant either, but he wasn't going to ask Scipio to translate. By his standards, he thought he knew most of it already. Scipio liked him.

Scipio looked off to the side and down at the floor, tugging at the collar of his own shirt. "Dannato… fa sentire caldo qui per voi?"

"What?" Bridge asked, tilting his head. He knew Scipio was asking him a question now, but he still couldn't understand Italian.

"It is… cald-… no, hot in here…" Scipio said with a strong Italian accent.

"Oh." Bridge blinked, blushing a little at his accent. "I…I guess it is. I hadn't…noticed."

Scipio tugged a little more at his collar, sweating slightly. "It was not hot before…"

"Are…maybe you're just…nervous?" He asked, tilting his head with a small smile.

"N-Nervous? Never…" For a pathological liar, that was pretty bad. Scipio laughed weakly, still avoiding eye contact. His face was still flushed as well, which was likely why he suddenly felt hot.

"Or…embarrassed?" Bridge suggested, crossing his legs again. He had a little suspicion Scipio might not be entirely familiar with what exactly he was feeling.
