With the Kirklands
Sadie smiled brightly as she and her friend Crystal drove through the Scottish country side. Crystal was one of Sadie's best friends and a long-time friend of the Kirklands. Sadie had known Arthur for awhile and knew he had brothers but never had the pleasure of meeting them.
As it turned out Crystal married Allistor, Arthur's oldest brother. So now she was on her way to Kirkland Manor, a huge old castle in Scotland where the Kirkland family stayed when they were on vacation.
The cab stopped at the gates and Sadie got out and followed Crystal up the path to the huge front door. Crystal opened it and they walked in. Right away Sadie saw Arthur sitting on the couch reading. She giggled and cleared her throat. Arthur looked up and smiled brightly.
"Sadie! I'm glad you're here!" He announced hugging her. Arthur grabbed her bag and led her upstairs.
*At dinner*
Sadie walked into the kitchen and froze, a blush creeping onto her face. Crystal was leaned against the counter with a handsome red head "snogging" her face off. Sensing two presences coming towards her Sadie looked behind her and was greeted with two more devilish looking red heads. The first one, whose hair was slightly brighter and had no wave to it smirked.
"They do that all the time," his brother, Sadie assumed they were the Ireland twins, nodded.
"Rather annoying really." The pair just shrugged and walked past her into the kitchen, breaking the couple apart. Both grabbed a whiskey from the cabinet and set it on the table.
Crystal blushed and nudged Allistor.
"Sorry lassie, did nae mean fer ya ta see that," he said, his voice having a distinct Scottish brogue.
"Allistor Kirkland." He offered her a hand and Sadie smiled and took it.
The other red head who had spoken to her earlier stood and walked over to her. His brother followed and each took a hand and kissed it.
"Rory Kirkland. I'm the oldest Ireland twin."
"Seamus, the other Ireland twin." Sadie smiled and blushed. Crystal interrupeted.
"They're both trouble-making pranksters. They'll try to confuse you. Just remember Rory's hair is bright red and straight, he also speaks first and tends to make the first move. Seamus's hair is wavy and more reddish brown, he stands to left and backs his brother up." Sadie nodded. Arthur came in next and glared at the twins.
"I hope they haven't caused trouble yet."
"Not yet dear brother,"
"But the night is still young." Wow, they even finished each other's sentences.
Dragon came down and greeted Sadie followed by a boy with brown hair.
"Ello, I'm Dillian, or Wales." Sadie shook his hand and you all sat down to eat.
*After Dinner*
Sadie smiled and laughed at the Irish boys' antics. They had talked Allistor and Crystal into drinking with them and now the four were clapping their hands and stomping their feet while singing Irish and Scottish drinking songs. She, Arthur, and Dillian had only had a few drinks but she had to admit the atmosphere was infectious.
Rory and Seamus had been doing most of the singing and she was surprised to find they were very good. Rory did a little jig and stopped in front of her.
"Come on lassie, dance." Sadie smiled and took his hand. Before she new it the five of them were doing a little dance in a circle around the coffee table.
Dillian eventually lost his willpower and joined in the drinking and dancing quickly followed by Arthur, who to her surprise began singing English pub songs. Sadie's cell phone went off, signaling that her brothers were checking up on her. However, being both drunk and occupied with learning the words to an Irish pub song she didn't answer.
That caused some worry on her brothers' side of things. They called America to make sure they got the time diffrence right. He said they did and offered to call Arthur. Arthur was in a small fight with Allistor that quickly ended when two drunk Irishmen yelled 'dogpile' and hurled themsleves at the pair wrestling on the ground.
When Arthur didn't answer that worried Alfred who called Matthew and Francis to see if they'd heard from Arthur. Now panic was spreading through all the nations (the former Axis, Allies, Spain, Romano, Prussia, and the Nordics). Had something happened to them? However, Sadie finally answered her phone. It was now very late at night, or actually very early in the morning in Scotland.
"He-hic-Hello?" She slurred. Ludwig let out a sigh of relief and put it on speaker phone so the other nations could hear.
"Vhy hasn't anyone answered their phones?"
"Luddy? Oh well-hic-we we-hic-were k-k-kinda-hic-busy." Okay his sister was drunk.
Everyone could here loud music in the background but it was lively and sounded folky. They heard England and two other voices they didn't recognize singing the words to what sounded like a bar song.
"Who else is there?"
"Oh just-"
"Lassie! Come on, we want tae dance with ye!"
"One-hic-minute Rory!"
"Wow, drunk and ye still tell me apart from me brother!"
"She's a talented lassie, Rory." Sadie giggled.
"What-hic-were ya saying Lud?"
"Who else is there?"
"Oh-hic! Me, Arthur-hic, Cry-hic- Crystal, Dillian, Alli-hic- Allistor, Rory, Seamus, -hic- and -hic- Dr-hic- Dragon."
They recognized the names Crystal and Dragon.
"Who are Dillian, Allistor, Rory, and Seamus?"
"Artie's-hic- brothers."
"GAAAH! Allistor, dont-hic- p-p-put me down!"
"Nae a chance lassie."
"Bugger off git, the girl wants down!"
"If cannae have fun with me wife then life is pointless, bunny."
"Oh bloody hell! Don't start with that again."
"Tis no fair to the rest 'o us," Seamus grumbled.
"Aye lassie! Finish yer call and come on!"
"Please lassie." Again Sadie giggled. What the nations didn't see was that the twins had wrapped their arms around her and had their chins rested on her shoulders giving her puppy dog eyes.
"Gotta-hic-go Luddy! Sorry-hic-ta worry ya-hic!" And she hung up.
"They vere all drunk," Ludwig grumbled. Prussia laughed.
"Zhen ze frau iz deffinately related to us."
The others let out sighs of relief.
*The next morning*
It had been exactly 3:00 AM when the residents of Kirkland Manor passed out from exhaution and to much to drink. They hadn't even made it upstairs. Allistor was asleep in the chair with Crystal curled up on his lap. Dragon was upstairs. Dillian was on the floor, slumped against the couch. Arthur was sprawled out on the coffee table. On the couch, between the twins was Sadie. Her head rested on Rory's shoulder and Seamus' head in her lap, her fingers still intwined in his wavy red hair.
Naturally Sadie's brother's, Alfred, Matthew, Francis, Feliciano, ok so all of the former Axis and Allies had come over for a surprise visit. Dragon heard the knock and opened the door quickly to avoid waking the others. Spain, and South Italy and tagged along.
"Dragon~" Feliciano chirped hugging the boy. Dragon giggled and hugged back, Alfred shoved past them.
"Wait! They're still-"
"DUDES!" Everyone in the room jolted. Arthur fell off the coffee table, Dillian smacked his head on Seamus' shoe, Seamus nearly slammed into Sadie's chin, Rory and Sadie's heads did slam together, and Crystal hit Allistor, yeah it was a disaster.
"Cor blimely," Dillian groaned.
"I'm dead, or I want to die," England groaned.
"Oi. I will nae be doing tha' again fer awhile," Allistor groaned.
"I will be joining ye on tha' note," Rory groaned.
"Sorry lass."
"It's okay, my head hurt anyway."
"Bugger me, I will be with me brothers on the drinking note," Seamus muttered attempting to bury his head into Sadie's stomach.
Dragon sighed. "Everyone was sleeping." Prussia had a dark aura about him. He wasn't thrilled that his little sister was sandwhiched between two boys.
Arthur attempted to get up but eventually just flopped down with a few curse words.
"Oi! There be lassies in the room." Allistor scolded half heartedly.
"Well, our lassie's alseep again," Rory mumbled.
Arthur's head snapped up.
"When did she become 'your lassie'?" Seamus and Rory smirked.
"When she agreed ta dance with us,"
"And drink with us,"
"And sleep on the couch with us."
"She was drunk!"
"Oh for the love of God! I wasn't that drunk!" Sadie growled.
"And for your information boys, I wont become anyone's 'lassie' without a fight."
Rory and Seamus shared a look before grinning devilishly.
"We except the challenge!"
