There's a time for everything
Underneath the palm trees, the shade had never been more blissful. Out in the tide, Toto, Thailand's elephant; joyfully played at the bubbling foam teasing at its feet.
The young man leaned his head back, resting it on the trunk and inhaled the smell of the sea. Thailand, then, looks down and sees Vietnam resting upon his lap. He brushes her bangs aside and reveals a peaceful, resting face. Her body curled and slightly embedded into the sand.
A gentle breeze blew speckles of sand, sprinkling lightly on her form-fitting silk clothes. He brushes them away, while noting the quality of the silk and how it slightly clings to her skin.
Everything had been in absolute pure bliss...until the sound of a light vibration filled the air. Thailand fumbled with his bag that he had aimlessly tossed aside earlier. Quickly, he yanked out his phone and mindlessly stared at the screen, reading the Caller I.D.
Vietnam stirred awake. She absentmindedly looked up, unfazed by his absent expression. In a low and nonchalant voice she asked, "Aren't you going to answer?"
A pregnant pause formed between the two.
Both stared at the infernal device. He then flipped the phone over, pulled out the battery, and tossed the items in the bag again.
He then looked over at Vietnam and reassures her with a warm smile, "It can wait."
Given the opportunity, the woman pulled herself up to snuggle at the base of his neck. Thailand returned the gesture by embracing her around the waist, in taking her scent.
Today was not a day where they were nations; today was a day where they took the time to be human.

A/N: I like drabbles over stories, they're more simplistic and meaningful.
A/N2: I also know that someone will nag me of another one hundred theme challenge I intend to take, and I will get around to that...eventually. But for now I want to turn my attention to the APH fanbase. This pairing is underrated.
A/N3: I keep forgetting to do this but I own nothing (because If I did own APH, I would have made my ships happen already) and all rights are reserved to Hidekazu Himaruya.
