My second Hetalia fanfic. I have no idea if the first was any good or not, I only received one review. So hopefully this will help me see if I have hope in this fandom! This is somewhat based on a historical event, so see if you can guess it! P.S., I'm not sure about Natalya's personality totally, so I'm going to make her a little quiet, but not shy.

Disclaimer: Like no one else on this site, I do not and never will own Axis Powers Hetalia.

Natalia sat quietly reading Pravda. She looked forward to reading it whenever it came out. She inwardly smiled as she realized she had read every copy ever made. She folded it gently when finished, not to wrinkle its genius. Natalia was sure she would return to it time and time again for advice on how to carry on properly.

Natalia sighed. Why does Russia want everyone to become one with him expect her? It just didn't make sense. Of course, things that do and do not make sense are hardly related in love, she assured herself. "Big brother Russia will come to his senses someday. He thinks I am pretty. He loves me...just like a sister... This is enough for a proper marriage I say."

As she bit into a some-what stale biscuit, she heard a knock at the door. "Russia? Are you here to marry me finally?" Natalia ran to the door and swung it open.

"Uh, sorry, it's Toris, actually-" And that was as far as he got.

Again, this obsessed Baltic has showed up at her house, knocked on her door. And again, she closed the door in his face.

"Natalia! Please open up!" came from the door, along with crying and a few Lithuanian swear words.

Eventually, it began to rain heavily. Natalia looked out the window (the one Toris wasn't peeping in from) and thought.

Poor guy...maybe I should be nice just this once so I never have to be nice to him again?

Biscuit in hand, she opened the door. Toris rushed in. "Thank you so much! My, aren't you looking lovely? Of course you always are beautiful..." Toris looked away and began again, feeling tension rising. "Anyway, *cough* Russia has a request. He...thinks that we should get...married."

Suddenly, Toris felt himself pushed to the ground, and Natalia pinning him down, "I marry no one, save Big Brother Russia."

"B-but it was on Russia's recommendation..."

"Does he wish to get rid of me this way? For lord's sakes! You are as good as he could come up with?" Natalia moved from on top of Toris to her couch and sat turned away from the middle Baltic.

"It isn't that he wants to get rid of you, I believe. He just wishes for your well-being. I suppose it would do me well also to have such a strong willed wife. Think, I am pretty good at exciting people in battle, and you...well you might just scare them enough for them to retreat. Neither of us are super rich, but maybe with an alliance?"

Natalia sat motionless. After a while, she replied with a cold, loud voice, "You do not understand. I do not want Russia for Russia, I want Russia for who he is. Strong, protective, and...so cute."

"Aren't I cute? Com' on, listen to me," Toris went and sat next to Natalia, secretly wondering why she hadn't already done away with him, "Sometimes we love someone and it goes to waste. You may be pretty damn insistent, but that just drives him away faster. If you marry me, after we have helped each other a lot, he might change his mind."

"He might...but that would be stupid of me. I couldn't...um...share vital regions with you. That is saved for Russia. We would have no physical relationship. Not that I want one," she added quickly.

Toris thought. There really was no way to convince this girl. He didn't blame her. It was obvious she hated him, and loved Russia. But it was also obvious Russia didn't love her like she wanted him to.

"What if I said I loved you?"

"I would say go away creeper."

Of course she would. This day was turning into a huge lump of fail for Toris. "Okay. I'll be leaving now..."

Natalia turned around. "Does...Poland have anything to say on the matter?"

"Po-chan said it was okay. He wasn't that happy, either, though."

"Big Brother really said this?"

Toris smiled and cautiously touched her hand, looking straight into her eyes, "I wouldn't ever lie to you. I'd be afraid you'd kill me."

Natalia giggled softly and Toris stared in disbelieving. Had me made Natalia...laugh? Even just a little?

"I'll do it for Brother Russia. But for no other reason, understand?"

Toris jumped up and clapped, "Yes ma'am! Oh Bella we'll be so happy! We'll live on the border and we'll have a dog and -" remains of biscuit shoved into his mouth.

"Shut up Litvok. Here," She placed her collection for Pravda in his arms, "read these so we may have some common ground."

Everything was going too well. Though it was purely conditional, Toris was to wed Natalia. He quickly left to leave his future bride time to think.

Again Natalia sighed. What had she done? She had fully intended on hurting this idiot...but she hadn't. I must be becoming too soft.

Marraige wasn't a big deal anyway. Just something nations do when they are weak. Heck, Lithuania and Poland had at one time been married (one can only wonder if Toris had showed Feliks his...*cough*). Purely conditional. She was being a good girl, even, for agreeing. Maybe Russia would see what a lovely young woman she was becoming and would swoop her away.

On the other hand, he might not. Would living with Toris be that bad? Yes. He was...nice...but so annoying to her. A hindrance. Someone in the way of her and Brother becoming one. But this was how Russia wanted it. And so it was.

I hope this isn't bad. This is a little bit based on the Cooperation Agreement Lithuania and Belarus signed not long ago, I believe. If anyone wants me to continue, I will, but if not I will stop here. All it takes for me to continue is one request for it so if you would like me to continue say so :)

Please please please review and help me with OOC-ness! I think Liet is pretty good, but I'm not sure about Bella. She's not mentioned much...

P.S. I know that Litvok is pretty much an American term for a person of Lithuanian decent. But...oh well...And pleaseeee don't take offense (it isn't very nice...)! I love you all! :')
