"Wow, this is really old. I wonder if I still fit it?" Italy thought aloud as he pulled out his old maid costume. "I guess the only way to find out is to put it on."

(15 minutes later)

"Hey Italy what do you want for di-" Germany trailed off as he saw Italy sweeping the floor in his green maid outfit. Italy turned around and smiled. Germany took a step back into the wall and sank to the floor. Why does my head hurt so much. Where have I seen him like this before?

"Germany! Germany, are you okay?!" Italy shouted running to Germany's side. "Germany! What's wrong!" When Germany didn't respond Italy started crying into his shoulder. "Please! Germany I need you! I can't bear to lose you like I did Holy Rome!" Germany's head snapped up at the sound of Holy Rome's name being shouted.

"Italy what did you just say." Germany grabbed Italy's shoulders.

"What do you mean? Are you okay Germnay?"

"Italy please if you want to help me, just say what you said before."

"Holy Rome?" Germnay flinched in pain as memories bombarded his mind. His grip on Italy loosened.

"Germany! Please stop!" Italy cried out as Germany started trembling.

"Italy." Germany looked up as warmth flooded his eyes and Italy saw love filling Germany's eyes. Italy gasped, he had only seen small tid-bits of love in Germnay's eyes. "Italy, Ich liebe dich."

"What did you say?" Italy asked breathless.

"I said I love you in German. Stay still." Germnay leaned forward and kissed Italy. Italy blushed and blinked before returning the kiss. Neither of them notice the small red string that tied them together.

"Germany are you feeling okay?" Italy saw the flash of hurt cross Germany's face.

"I'm feeling fine. I apologize if I offended you." Germany stood up and tried to walk away but couldn't. "What the?" He looked down to see Italy staring astonished at the red string tied to his finger. Germany followed the string to his own hand where it was tied on his ring finger.

"Japan told me a story about how the Gods would tie red strings to people who were meant to be in love." Italy looked into Germany's eyes and blushed before turning away. "And you didn't offend me when we kissed. It's just you never really seemed to love me like that."

"I'm sorry. If only I had known sooner."

"What are you talking about?"

"Italy. I was the Holy Roman Empire. I remeber that dress and I guess when you put it on you helped me remember some things about the past. You helped me remeber how to love." Germany blushed as Italy looked up at him with eyes full of tears.

"Please don't lie to me about that. I really don't find it funny. Holy Rome died a long time ago."

"Italy. Please look at the red string. You said it means we are meant to love each other. Don't you remember the occasional tug on you hand when Holy Rome had to walk away from you. I remeber I chased a rat around Mr. Austria's house because I thought it would scare you. It ran underneath you skirt and I lifted up your skirt. You cried and called me a pervert." Germany said blushing in embarraement from the memory.

"It is you. Germany. What happened?"

"I hit my head and I guess when I awoke I took on the name Germany. I'm so sorry that I ever left you. I swear it will never happen again Italy." Germany leaned in and kissed Italy again, and Italy did not hesitate this time.

It's sooooo cute! So yeah i think i'm gonna keep this a one-shot but i might continue it. Who knows. Reviews please! I'm new and i wanna try to see if i'm any good.
