Chapter 1:
"Y-You're not serious… are you?" a man with blond hair asked with a look of disbelief on his face, his blue eyes also showing his disbelief. The woman that sat in front of him nodded. She had short platinum blond hair and sapphire eyes.
"Yes I am…" she replied as she looked around once again to make sure no one was there as the two talked.
"I-I see…" the man let out a shaky sigh as he rubbed the back of his head before adjusting his glasses back onto the bridge of his nose.
"E-Estonia… Are you not happy?"
"Please don't think that Ukraine!" Estonia softly exclaimed as he took the Ukrainian woman's hand into his. "I'm happy but it's… well…"
"Russia, right?" Ukraine asked as she looked towards the ground. Estonia nodded. Ukraine smiled as she looked back up to Estonia but didn't get far when a shadow loomed over them. The two looked behind them and saw a tall man with platinum blond hair and a scarf around his neck.
"Am I interrupting something?" the man asked, a dark aura seeming to be surrounding him.
"Eh? N-No, nothing really Russia," Estonia quickly replied as he removed his hand from Ukraine's, hoping that Russia didn't see.
Ukraine smiled up at her brother. "I was just asking Estonia about something is all Russia." Estonia's face became slightly relieved at hearing Ukraine speaking. He was always amazed how she wasn't scared of Russia. Of course, when you have a sister as messed up as Belarus, it's kind of hard to be scared of Russia.
"Oh? What about big sis?"
"Well, I was thinking about building a watering system to help water my fields, but I wasn't sure if it was a good idea or not. So I asked Estonia if he could help me figure out if it would be a good idea or not." Estonia was astonished at how well Ukraine was lying to her younger brother.
"Oh," Russia said as the dark aura seemed to fade to a small glimmer. Russia smiled at Estonia. "You better not do anything to my sister or I will have to come after you."
"I-I know Russia," Estonia replied slightly nervous. Russia nodded as he walked out of the room, making both Ukraine and Estonia sigh with relief. Estonia turned his attention back to Ukraine. "How did you think of something so fast?"
Ukraine weakly smiled at the Estonian. "Well… when I found out about me being pregnant, I had planned what to say. It was easy as well since I was originally planning on asking you about that kind of thing anyways."
"Oh?" Ukraine nodded. "Well, based off what I know of your fields, it would be kind of hard to do something like that."
"I see…" Ukraine replied. "That's what I thought."
"However, you could set up a small sprinkler system." Ukraine looked back at Estonia with slightly hopeful eyes.
"Really?" Estonia nodded, making Ukraine smile with delight. "That's wonderful!" Estonia smiled. He was glad to see Ukraine smiling happily again. However, the look faded from his face as he looked down at the ground. "Estonia, is something wrong?" Estonia's head snapped back up to Ukraine.
"Oh… yes I'm perfectly fine," he replied as he adjusted his glasses back onto his nose again.
"You sure?" Ukraine asked again as she placed a gentle hand on Estonia's. The Estonian blushed.
"Yes. I'm just worried."
"About what?"
"Well… Russia will notice eventually that you're pregnant and…"
"Please don't worry," Ukraine commented. "If it was anyone else I would've told Russia about it… but it's you so I won't tell Russia until the time is right, and I will keep Russia from doing anything to you."
"You know, normally it's the males job to do that kind of thing," Estonia joked. Ukraine slightly panicked.
"I-I'm sorry! I was-"
"It's okay! I was kidding. But I will face Russia if I need to." Ukraine weakly smiled but nodded anyways. She knew that Estonia would do it if he needed too and she would let him. However, she would intervene if she needed to. Both of them knew that Russia wouldn't be very happy to find out about all of this, but they would do anything to keep from being driven apart. They would do anything to stay together.
