Spain sat at the end of Romano's bed, biting his lip. He didn't know how to tell the boy about the talk he had with France. He had been drunk - too drunk for coherent thought - and ended up selling his underling to the man. He couldn't get out of it no matter how he much he begged. He leaned down next to the teen, feeling his hair as tears rushed to his eyes. "I wish I could just stay here with you forever…" He whispered, voice trembling.

Romano woke up with a soft groan, seeing the Spaniard and turning on his side. "I'm not even going to ask why you're in my room, but get out." He looked over his shoulder with a harsh glare. "You've finally made me realize what I am - property." Spain pulled away with a soft whimper.

"L-Lovi, please, don't push me away…"

"Push you away?!" He growled, sitting up. "What about me?! Why are you pushing me away?! My life has been nothing but hell and it'll stay like that forever, won't it?! Because I'm property; something to be bought! Just like a common whore!" He grabbed Spain by the collar, spitting on his face. "You wouldn't understand that, would you?!"

Spain wiped his face, snarling and pinning the boy to the wall, holding him securely there. "Don't talk to your boss like that, brat." He seethed. "Maybe you are just property. But you're my property, got it?!"

Romano went silent, before breaking down and sobbing uncontrollably. "S-See what you did, bastard?! See…?!" He kicked him away, slithering to the farthest corner of the room and reaching shakily for his gun. Spain smirked sickly, walking over to him.

"Hand me the gun, Mi Tomate~" He cooed sweetly. "You wouldn't want anyone to get hurt, would you~?" The Italian cowered in fear, placing the gun on the floor. "P-Please don't kill me, Boss…" He begged. "I'll do anything…"

The man smirked, pressing him against the wall. "Anything~?" He slammed him onto the ground, undoing his pants. "Well, you can start with a blowjob, for one!"

Romano shuddered, unwittingly obliging to Spain's command as he took the man's cock into his mouth. The Spaniard groaned, slapping him with a snarl. "I said a blowjob! Geez, for a whore you know nothing about fucking!" The Italian continued crying, licking and sucking at it sloppily. He wanted to die and escape from this hell. He glanced over to the gun in Spain's hand in longing. If he could just grab it…

He was thrown back into reality when he felt an unknown substance go down his throat, making him spit it out in dislike. Spain sighed, picking him up and putting him into his bed. He stroked his hair, taking in his scent. "You're so beautiful, Mi amor…" He whispered into his ear. "Mi tomate precioso...Mi niño lindo...Te amo…"

Romano sobbed into his chest as Spain lulled him off to sleep, his crying eventually ceasing as he fell into a brief moment of bliss.

Romano woke up alone, looking to his left to see the bed messed up. He sat up and stretched, walking into the kitchen to see Spain cooking and singing in Spanish. He looked over to the Italian and smiled. "Buenos dias~!" He smiled warmly, sashaying over to Romano and kissing his neck. "Sleep well~?" Romano bit his lip slowly, nodding. A lie, of course, but it was an escape from hell.

Spain chuckled happily, handing him his breakfast. "Eat up~!" He went back to cooking. Romano poked at it, looking for traces of poison, and silently relieved when finding none. He took a bite of his omelette; it tasted really good. He finished it in less than five minutes, eating nearly like a wolf. Spain ruffled his hair, smiling when he heard the Italian's purrs. "You're so cute~! My precious Lovi…" Romano pouted. "Shut up, Tomato Basta-" He suddenly smelled something disgusting.

"...What the hell is that smell?!"

Spain feigned innocence, giggling. "Is my manly scent intimidating Mi Tomate~?" Romano stood up. "It smells like something rotting…" He ran into the living room, before gasping at the sight.

France's corpse was lying at the doorway.

Romano gasped in terror as he backed away, before being pressed up against Spain's chest with a gun at his head.

"You just couldn't let it go, could you?!"
