Everyday is the same with me. Ignored, pushed around, and never remembered, I hate it but, I can't do anything about it. I just hope that the Winter Olympics make me noticeable this year so I have to work extra hard.
"Okay, we need to work harder on snowboarding, skiing, and hockey." I grab the papers of the Olympics of this year and begin to practice.
"Who are you?" Kumajiro said.
"I'm Canada." I said mopping a bit. "I wish people would notice me." I look at the sports again. "I better start working." I go into my room to chance into my snowboarding gear and make sure all my gear weren't broken or damaged. Then I grabbed my board and headed out of my house and into the snow. "Looks like today's going to be a calm day." I smile and started to hike up a mountain to board.
"What are we doing?" Asked the small white bear.
"We're snowboarding for the Winter Olympics this year." I answered him. "This is gonna be fun."
I get up onto the tip of the mountain and put on my snow goggles and begin to board down the mountain. The wind felt cool against my face and dodging the trees and rocks was the fun part because it made me feel like I was the wind whisping through the trees. And as soon as I got to a hill I jumped off it and did a triple back flip and made a perfect landing. I smile and laugh from the fun. I hit another hill and decided to make a few stunts like front flip while holding the board and I landed fine but I was a little late and swiveled off almost hitting a tree.
"WAH!" As I'm bracing for impact I end up hitting something not so hard. "W-What?"
"You know you should be more careful. Nature has a bad habit of hurting people like you." I heard a man say in a Russian accent.
"R-R-RUSSIA?!" I yelled in surprise, which isn't very loud and tremble.
"Da, so how's your day Canada?" He asked casually.
"W-What are you doing in my country?" I asked him scared half to death.
"Nothing really I wanted to know how you were and to have some of your homemade pancakes with your famous maple syrup." He said with his stomach rumbling.
"O-Okay. Then lets go to my log cabin to get something to eat." I said nervously.
"Okay, lets go before it gets too cold." He said covering his mouth with his scarf.
"Yeah." I try to stand up correctly to lead him to my house but when I did I felt a sharp pain in my leg. "AH!" I sat in the snow and held my shin.
"What's wrong? Are you hurt?" He asked.
I look at my hand to see that there's blood. "Ow." Then Russia kneels down to me and looks at my shin.
"Oh. . . That looks like it hurts." Russia takes off his scarf and wraps it around my shin. "And one more thing." Russia's arms scoop under me and pick me up and started walking down the mountain with my board left behind.
"H-Hey! You don't have to that, I can walk-!" I was cut off by Russia's lips on mine. "W-WHAT WAS THAT?!"
"It was the only way to make you shut up. Because I'm sorta holding you." He keeps walking down the mountain as I cover my mouth with my gloves and blushed brightly. I look at him and notice he was smiling but, for some odd reason I feel a warm and comfortable by it as he carried me.
After a while we finally reach my cabin.
"You can set me down now." I said to him.
"No no, I like carrying you, you're really light and really quiet unlike your brother." He opens the door but the door brakes from him using too much force.
"M-My door!" I freak out a bit about the door and the cold. "It took me forever to put the door there when I got this cabin." He sets me down on the couch in the living room.
"You know your very jumpy Canada." He smiles and fixes the door. "Oh yeah, I almost forgot. I also came here to give you something." He pulls out a sunflower from his coat. "It's for good luck." He hands me the sunflower.
"T-Thank you." I take the sunflower.
"Now, lets take a look at your leg." He kneels down to the floor and lifts my pant leg up to look at my wound. "Do you have anything to clean it with?"
"I didn't think this wound happen so I didn't bring any bandages b-but, there's water in the kitchen." I told him still a bit embarrassed and still thinking about the kiss.
"Okay, I'll be right back with the water." He smiled and walked to the kitchen.
"Why is he being so nice to me? I thought he just wanted to countries to become one with him?" I whispered to myself. Russia comes back from the kitchen with a cup of water and a dish towel.
"Alright now, just put your leg here and I'll do the rest." He pointed to the coffee table to put my leg there.
"O-Okay." I put my leg on the table.
Russia pulled my pant leg up to my knee and looked at the bleeding wound. Russia then put his face close to my bare leg and licked the blood.
"R-Russia?!" I got goosebumps and shivered.
"It's okay. I'll take care of you now. . . Matthew." He said looking at me with calm soft eyes.
