"Hey, Germany! Don't you think it was kind of Japan to invite us to one of his hot springs?"

It was a sunny afternoon as Italy and Germany waited for Japan.

"Yes, it was," responded Germany.

"It should be good to have some time to relax, right?" Italy asked.

"Well you're always slacking off from duties anyways, but yes it should be nice," Germany answered.

"Ve~ Oh! There's Japan!" said Italy waving.

Japan approached them, with a small smile on his face.

"Hello, Italy-kun, Germany-san," Japan bowed to both of them.

"It's good to see you Japan," Germany said. Italy nodded excitedly in agreement." Yeah, and it was nice of you to invite us over!"

Japan chuckled lightly. "It was no problem at all. By the way I brought these for you," he said handing Germany and Italy each a bag.

"What are they?" asked Germany pulling out a piece of clothing from the bag.

"They are called yukuta. It is a light kimono. It is commonly worn at the onsenor hot springs. I thought it would be a nice idea for you both to have one."

"Whoa…" Italy said pulling his own yukuta out of the bag. "It's really nice, thank you so much Japan!"

"Yes, I agree. Thank you," added Germany.

Japan smiled brightly. "I'm glad you like them. So shell me go now?"

"Yes."

"Yep!"

When they reached the hot springs, Japan showed them around.

"Here is the dining area and through those doors over there is the entrance to the onsen," Japan said, pointing things out. "And if you follow me down this hallway I'll show you to your rooms."

They walked down the hallway and Japan stooped it front of one of the doors.

"Here is your room, Italy-kun. Your room is this one here, Germany-san," he said gesturing to the room directly across from Italy's. "I'll let you get settled. If you need the washroom, it is three doors down on the left side."

Italy and Germany both thanked Japan and went into their rooms. Germany explored his room a bit, and put his things away. He decided to take a small nap and layed down in the futon that had been put out for him.

A few hours later Italy went into Germany's room, to find him fast asleep.

"Hee, Germany's sleeping!" Italy bent over him, examining his sleeping face. "He look's so peaceful…"

"Mmm…"Germany began to wake up. "Italy?" he asked slightly confused.

"Oh, I'm sorry Germany! I didn't mean to wake you," said Italy.

Germany sat up and yawned. "No it's fine. Where's Japan?"

"He said he wanted to make dinner for us, and that while he's cooking we should go to the onsen."

"Ah, ok," said Germany. He began to get up when Italy said something.

"Hey, Germany?"

"Yeah?"

"Are you…feeling better?" he asked with a slightly worried expression.

"Hmm? What do you mean?" Germany asked.

Well, I mean you were acting kind of strange before, remember? When, we went to that restaurant. You started to do really strange things and then you passed out…" Italy answered looking closely at Germany.

"Oh," Germany turned away from Italy, his face bright red. "You mean that. I just...read a book and got confused…about some things…" he said.

"Really? That's all?" Italy asked, stepping closer to him.

Germany looked into Italy's worried eyes and thought of the vision he saw of a young maid with a bouquet of flowers, right after he had proposed to him. He shook the thought away. "Yes, I'm fine now," he answered.

Italy smiled a relieved smile. "Good, I'm glad."

Germany felt a pang of guilt for worrying him. Italy noticed the face that Germany was making and could easily guess what he was thinking. Grabbing his hand as they walked towards the hot springs, he said, "I'm always depending on Germany and making you worry, so if Germany wants, you can depend on me too."

Germany looked at Italy, surprised by his words. He went slightly red as he smiled and said thank you Italy."

"Ve~"

As they reached the onsen, Germany realized that they had forgotten their yukuta's. Italy offered to go and get them.

While Italy was getting the kimono's, Germany removed his clothing, folded them and placed them just by the doors. Slowly he lowered himself into the water.

"Ahh…this is nice…" he said, his stiff muscles loosening in the warmth of the water. Closing his eyes he felt very calm.

"*RATTLE*" Germany opened his eyes to see Italy coming through the sliding doors.

"I got them," he said happily,

"Okay," said Germany. "Put them there, by my clothes."

Italy placed them down where he was told. Then He took off his own clothes, throwing them on the ground where he stood. Germany watched him do this with slight annoyance. When Italy was completely undresses he rushed into the water, splashing Germany.

"Ah-! Italy!" Germany exclaimed as he wiped the water out of his face.

"Oops, I'm sorry!" Italy said, worried that Germany would hit him.

"~SIGH~ It's fine, just don't do it again," said Germany, who didn't want to ruin the evening by being mad.

Italy had been crouched down, so that the water was up to his chin. Realizing that he wasn't going to be hit, he slowly rose out of the water a bit. As Germany watched him, something caught his eye. The necklace that hung around Italy's neck, the one that was identical to the one he wore on his own neck. He hadn't noticed him wearing it earlier.

Italy became aware of Germany's staring. He looked at the necklace and began to fiddle with it.

"I always wear it," he said to Germany. "I keep it under my shirt, so that Romano won't pull it off," Italy smiled fondly at the necklace. "It's really precious to me," said Italy, looking at Germany, "Because it's a special gift from you, Germany."

Germany could feel himself getting red, from being with such honesty. At times like these, Germany felt happy being with Italy, even though he felt kind of awkward. He wanted Italy to know how extremely pleased he was after hearing that, but was too embarrassed. So he reached over to Italy and took the necklace in his fingers, examining it and said, "I'm happy to see that you've been taking such good care of it, a-hem."

Germany let go of the necklace and turned away from Italy, feeling embarrassed anyways.

"…" Seconds passed, and Italy and Germany didn't say a word. Germany who was still turned away from Italy, began to wonder why he wasn't speaking, and thought maybe he shouldn't have said anything.

Germany turned back to Italy. "Hey Italy…?" Suddenly he felt Italy's arms wrap around him.

"I love you, Germany!" he shouted happily.

Germany was caught off-guard by Italy's actions.

"Ah-! Don't h-hug me, w-when we're like t-this!" he stuttered, fully aware of Italy's body against his own.

"Ve~" Italy squeezed Germany even more. Germany felt Italy's chest against him and a strange vision came to him again. The same young maid was there with him, swimming in a river. The maid started hugging him from behind. He could feel her chest on his back. Germany felt a strong rush of emotions, then he started to become extremely dizzy.

"Germany?" Italy called his name, noticing that he was becoming limp. When he didn't respond Italy became alarmed.

"Germany? Germany? Japan, help! Something's wrong with Germany!" he started shouting.

Italy's panicked voice was the last thing Germany heard, before everything went dark.
