In Honor of America's Birthday, I wrote this story, I hope you enjoy it, please review it or whatever...favorites are nice too..*hint hint, cough cough*...so I hope you like it!
England walked faster. America would never let him live it down if he was late. Finally he found his destination, a famous ice cram parlor. The door's bell jingled and America looked up hopefully. Standing in the door was England, looking as handsome as ever in a tee and jeans.
"Iggy, dude you made it!" he sounded so happy.
"Of course I made it, you git," England said affectionately. He kissed his lover on the cheek. "You been waiting long?"
America laughed, "no not really." He smiled. "But I'm glad you came."
"You git! Of course I would come do you take me for an idiot?" England laughed.
"No of course not. Here's our waitress." A woman had sidled up to the table, a pencil behind her ear, hiding in a beehive hairdo. Her pink waitressing uniform looked reminiscent of the fifties, like the rest of her.
"Hi my name is Flo, what can I get you two?" she asked, chewing bubble gum obnoxiously.
Before England could say anything America cut in, "We'll have a banana split to share, and after you bring it, can we have some alone time?" the last part was whispered, so England couldn't hear it. Then he added something else.
Flo looked between the two boys and gave America a wink, "Course you can sweetheart."
After a few minutes Flo brought out the ice cream and set it down between the two lovers. She went away smiling to herself.
America started digging in with enthusiasm as England watched, smiling faintly.
"What are you looking at?" America asked with his mouth full.
"Oh just you," England said smiling back as he took a bite of their ice cream.
America shook his head and then shoved more ice cream down his throat. Pretty soon all that was left was a single red cherry, sitting in a pool of melted ice cream.
England stood up and came and sat on the booth next to America. "So do you have a birthday wish?" America turned to England, looking shy for the first time ever. "What is it?" England asked noticing America's expression.
"It's just there is one thing," America said slowly.
"Yes?" England asked.
"My birthday wish this year is for you to marry me." America said turning the same color as the cherry.
England's jade eyes just widened, and his caterpillar like eyebrows quivered like crazy.
"So will you marry me? Will you make my wish come true?" America asked desperately seeking an answer.
England just exhaled. Then said tenderly, "It would be my greatest honor to marry you."
America smiled.
England coughed.
"Hmm?" asked America, turning his blue eyes towards Iggy's green ones.
England blushed. "Well um, did you get a ring?"
America blushed again. He pulled a ring box out of his pocket. His fingers trembled as he slid the delicate gold band on England's finger.
"It's beautiful," sighed England.
It wasn't a common ring, it had a thin golden band, and in the middle was a green stone the color of Iggy's eyes. "I'm glad you like it, it's an heirloom."
"It's beautiful," England sighed. "You know I tease you about the hero thing, but in actuality you are my hero." From the back of the shop the song _ came on. England smiled with surprise. "That's our song."
"May I have this dance?"
They waltzed together and the song ended with a kiss.
"Happy Birthday, my Hero," whispered Iggy into America's ear.
AN I left the song blank so you could use whatever song you thing of as a USxUK song. I hope you liked it!
