"There!" I smiled at my reflection. I spun around with my newly made dress. I'm Maria De La Cruz and I am a 14 year old filipino! My skin is, of course, light brown since I had to move to America when I was young. And, of course, my hair is black but I decided to grow it out so now it's almost past my bottom. I'm pretty tall for an asian girl at my age. I'm like Liechtenstein with a bit more twist to it. I'm pretty much half of a girly girl and the other half a tomboy(1). My parents are at California for a couple of months with my sister visiting relatives. I like drawing, cooking, and sewing. Which leads to the current situation I am in. I was prancing around my room enjoying my new satin purple dress(2).

DING DONG! I stopped in my tracks, grabbed a knife from the kitchen(3), and peeked through the little hole on the door. 'A delivery guy?' I thought. I opened the door slightly, the chains on the door prevented anyone who tried to pry themselves in, and the knife behind me. "I'm Dave, I'm here to deliver a package to 'Maria De La Cruz?' " "Oh! Excuse me!" I put the knife on the counter near me and unlocked the door, opening it all the way. Dave gave me the pad to sign and handed me a booklet.

"W-wait!" I called. He turned around. "I didn't order anything." I said. "You did. You ordered a 'Norway Unit' last week, didn't you?" Dave asked. I looked up at my thought bubble(4).

*FLASHBACK*

I was surfing on the internet. I have read lots of fanfics of people getting Hetalia Units. I sighed. 'Lucky them... I wish I had one...' I scrolled down the page on Yahoo! I wanted a Hetalia Unit so bad I decided to search on Yahoo! But I only found fanfics of them. 'I guess it isn't real...' Then, a title caught my attention out of despair. I clicked on it and a white and green page filled the screen. In the center was a little box that said 'Fill in the information below! First order will be FREE!' The title had HETALIA written on it made by pasta.

I sighed. 'Okay...'
First box: Full Name Second box: Address Third box: Chibi or Full Sized And the Fourth box was a drop down box with a list of countries.

First box: Maria De La Cruz Second box: - (AN: I'm in a bit of a hurry so you can make up your own address)
Third box: Full Sized Fourth Box: Norway

I smiled as I pressed enter. THANK YOU! YOUR 'NORWAY UNIT' WILL ARRIVE AT YOUR DOOR SOON! COME AGAIN! I stared at the screen with wide eyes. What did I just do? I saved the page to favorites so I can do some research on the page later.

*END OF FLASHBACK*

"Oh..." I stood there dumbfounded. I turned my stare to the box. Dave drove away leaving me to fangirl. I suppressed a squeal as I bounced in place. 'Th-tha-that's Norway! Kya!' I then calmed down and read the booklet.

Thank you for ordering our Norway Unit. As our page said, your first unit will be free. If you order another unit, it will cost $145.76. If there are any problems or any more orders, please visit our page: . /

Ways to wake up the Norway Unit:
1. Play 'Ja Vi Elsker Dette Landet', Norway's anthem. He will be curious and try to get out and see who is playing his anthem. 2. Play the 10 minute challenge of Iceland saying 'Onii-chan.' Norway will IMMEDIATELY burst out and glomp the first figure he sees. When he notices that you're not Iceland, he will apologize and you can start from there.
3. This step is optional if you have a violin. Play an Alexander Rybak(5) song, Norway will come out and either comment on your playing or offer to give you lessons. It depends on how you play.
4. Play the 'Viking Song', Norway will either come out and raise a brow at the song or his Viking Mode will activate and he will destroy the box but we do NOT recommend this. Unless you want to be raped, injured, or killed.
5. Tap the box and ask for some butter. He might share it but probably not since he almost ran out of it in the late 2011 before Christmas. Keep in mind, he will be a bit selfish when it comes to butter. It depends on how close you are to him.

"Hmm... I guess... I'll try number 1..." I ran upstairs and grabbed my phone. And yes, I downloaded Norway's Anthem. I ran back downstairs and played the anthem as loud as my phone can get. As it played, the box shook a little, and then the top half came off as Norway peeked to find me staring at him. He slowly made his way out. I turned off my phone when it was done playing. "Did you order me?" Norway asked in his deep voice. I could've melted right there! I nodded. "I'm Maria." I said shaking his hand. "Nice to meet you." He said and nodded to me. A small smile found it's way to my face. Norway glanced down at my dress.

He came closer to me and started pouring me with questions(6). Like, "Did you make this?" "The stitching looks really good." "It does suit you." "What do you do?" "Do you know how to sew?"
My mind started getting dizzy. Then, he stopped and pulled his head back. "Uhh..." I muttered. "I'm sorry." Norway looked down to the ground, his emotionless face never faltered. I giggled silently. "No worries!" I cheerfully replied reassuring him I was okay. "Oh ya, my things." Norway's head snapped up. He proceeded back to his box and took out a suitcase. He walked back to me and took off his hat. "Where will I be staying?" Norway asked. I thought for a moment. "I guess... the attic. We don't have any more extra rooms." I walked upstairs with Norway following after me. I pulled down the ladder, going up first. Norway climbed up also making sure to look at the ladder keeping in mind I was wearing a dress. 'He's such a gentlemen!' I squealed inside.

"I'm sorry if it's dusty. Um, just wait right here, I'll clear up." I said rushing to work. I didn't really like it when someone else cleaned up with me. I liked to focus on cleaning not a big fan of giving out orders. After I cleaned up, the attic looked much better. "We'll go shopping to get you some necessities and a bedsheets." I said smiling politely. Norway nodded and set his suitcase on the bed. "I'll go cook lunch." I simply stated going downstairs. Saying 'Make yourself at home' is a little too overused for me. But you know most people wouldn't make themselves at home at some stranger's house.

I finished cooking as Norway came in. "I hope you don't mind Asian food for awhile. I'm Asian anyways but I'll cook some European if you want." I said setting down a plate of curry in front of him. He looked at it and picked up the spoon. He seemed to eat it with no objection of disgust, or I just can't read his expressions... I sat down across from him. Norway looked up. I set my elbows on the table, putting my head on my hands and smiled widely. '*Sighs* Life is going to get better!'

(1) I'm pretty much describing myself . But I am kind of like Liechtenstein but with a twist. Mm, maybe with a Hungary or Belarus kind of twist. I don't know but Japan said I could be Liechtenstein before I found Norway. And the name and age isn't true. And yes, my hair was THAT long. But I had to cut it a month ago :(
(2) I imagined a dress and didn't really want to go to explanation.
(3) Yeah, I'm insane like that (4) I remembered Japan said that to Greece in the World Series when they're trying to get mad.
(5) Alexander Rybak is a Norwegian singer that won the Eurovision 2009 for Norway! I love his songs! Really great!
(6) Norway did this to Vietnam when she won the costume contest in a comic strip.
