Hetalia does not belong to me. Wish it did though.
"Someone wanna remind me WHY I'm spending a year with Antonio?" An Italian asked.
"Because you were dared to, Lovino." A second Italian replied.
"Feliciano, you do realize I don't even know this guy, right?" Lovino sighed.
"But a dare is a dare." Feliciano shrugged, "You have to do it." he paused, "And you do to know Toni."
"What are you talking about?" Lovino asked.
"He came over for the Christams party last year with Gilbert and Francis." A German replied, "Plus, he was in your History class."
"Yes, Ludwig-san is right." A Japanese nodded.
"See? Even Kiku remembers." Feliciano stated.
"That's because he has a good memory." Lovino rolled his eyes.
"Well, Feli remembers him." The French said, "Does that count for something?
"Oh, shove it, Francis." Lovino huffed.
"Well, the frog has a point." An English guy sighed.
"Arthur, why do you keep calling Francis a frog?" An American questioned.
"Because that's what he is, Alfred." Arthur explained.
"But frogs are amphibions, and Francis is a mammal." Alfred raised an eyebrow.
"Kesese, I can't believe Alfred managed to make a good point." Another German laughed.
"Shut up, Gilbert!" Alfred shouted.
"U-Um, d-does anyone know where we are?" A Canadian frowned looking around.
"Sorry, little birdie, but I'm afraid we're lost right now." Gilbert said.
"I do have a name." The Canadian sighed.
"Yeah, I know." Gilbert nodded.
"Do you know what it is?"
"Yup."
"What?"
"Why do you need me to tell you your own name?"
"Just do it."
"Matthew, did you hit your head?"
"So, you do know my name." Matthew, the Canadian, sighed, "At least someone does."
"Does anyone know where we are?" Alfred asked loudly.
"I'm afraid we're lost." Arthur shook his head.
"I told you we should have left that party earlier." Lovino grumbled, "Now it's dark, and we're completely lost."
"We could ask for directions." Feli suggested.
"NO!" Lovino, Alfred, Francis, Arthur, Ludwig, and Gilbert yelled.
"Why not?" Feli titled his head to the side.
"That's something a girl would do." Lovino replied, "And in case you haven't noticed none of us are girls."
"Ve~ What's your point?" Feli asked, "Unless you WANT to wander around in the dark all night knowing that there's a good chance that we could get mugged or something. I mean what if someone gets seriously hurt or worse?"
"Feliciano?"
"Si, fratello?"
"Stai zitto." Lovino sighed, "Quit trying to make me feel bad. You know I hate it when you do that."
"Actually, he does have a point." Ludwig said.
"Do you know anyone that lives around here?"
"No, but-"
"Okay than. Stai zitto."
"Um, I hate to break up that totally unawesome conversation," Gilbert began, "but I'd like to say that Roderich Edelstein, the unawesome Austrian from science, lives around here."
"Eto, really? Where?" Kiku asked.
"Right there." Gilbert pointed to an upcoming house.
"That's a small house compared to one of our's." Lovino huffed, "How did he go to the same school as us?"
"His 'rents and he are the kind who only spend money where money is needed." Alfred said, "At least, that's what he told me."
"In those exact words?" Arthur asked.
"Yup." Alfred noddded, "Excpet he said parents not 'rents."
"I thought as much." Arthur sighed.
"Roderich is much to uptight to use slang like me." Alfred said, "So, I would hope that you KNEW as much."
"Will you be quiet for the rest of the walk?"
"Sorry."
"You know." Lovino began, "We're all rich an yet none of us have a car."
Silence...
"And we've all gor our driver's licenses." he added.
Silence...
They walked up Roderich's driveway in silence. When the reached the door, Gilbert rang the doorbell. After a few minutes of waiting, Roderich answered the door and looked surprised to see the group.
"Can I help you with something?" He asked politely.
"We're lost." Gilbert sighed, "And that is totally not awesome, so we need directions, which is also totally not awesome."
"I see." Roderich raised an eyebrow, "Would you like to come in?"
"Nah." Gilbert replied, "We can't stay long. We've got to get back to the twin's house before their 'rents kill us."
"What's the-"
"Bolzano Street." Lovino interrupted.
"Well, you're on Innsbruck Road right now, so all you have to do is keep going that way." Roderich pointed right, "You'll be there shortly. Can I get you some flashlights?"
"Sure." Alfred shrugged, "We can give 'em back tomorrow. If that's alright."
"Of course." Roderich retreated back inside his house for a few moments and came back out with four flashlights. He handed one to Lovino, one to Gilbert, one to Alfred, and one to Ludwig, "Be careful."
"Ciao!" Feliciano waved as they started down the driveway.
When they arrived at the Italian's home, they were yelled at by Mister and Misses Vargas. They were both strict on time and were even meaner than Lovino at times, but most of the time they were kind. In fact, they were allowing the twins to stay in town while they left on business trips.
"If we've told you once, we've told you a thousand times!" Mrs. Vargas ranted, "Don't. Stay. Out. Late."
"Mom, your definition of late is eight in the afternoon." Lovino rolled his eyes.
"Don't roll your eyes at your mother." Mr. Vargas snapped.
"Mi dispiace." Lovino apologized.
"Well, what's done is done." Mrs. Vargas puffed, "Why don't all you seniors- Wait! You've already graduated! Well, why don't all you adults go upstairs or something?"
"Sure thing, Mom." The twins nodded, and they and their friends went into Lovino's room.
"I hate that lady sometimes." Lovino huffed, "She didn't even ask to hear our side of the story. All she ever does is get upset about something."
"Ve~She just worries about us." Feliciano said, "She doesn't want us to get hurt, so she nags at us."
"She probably doesn't even care that we graduated, Feli." Lovino continued, "Neither she nor Dad attended the graduation ceremony."
"Ve~They were probably just," Feli paused trying to think of something, "busy."
"They're always 'just busy' though." Lovino sighed, "Name ONE MAJOR event that they attended that we took part in."
Silence...
"W-Well, um," Feli paused, "there was that art contest that- No, wait. Well, there wa- No. Um, well, their work keeps them really busy, so-"
"Let's just face it, Feli!" Lovino exclaimed, "They DON'T care, and they NEVER will. They get upset if we even breathe loudly."
Feli didn't have a comeback for this so he just remained quiet... For a short period of time...
"Ve~Well, at least you don't have to worry about them for a whole year." Feli bounced.
"Neither do you, fratello." Lovino sighed.
"Actually, they won't leave until July, so I'm stuck with them for a while." Feli sighed miserably, "I'm gonna be so bored without you, Lovino! There'll be no one to keep me company."
"What are we?" Gilbert raised an eyebrow, "Yesterday's unawesome news?"
"You'll still see me around, fratello." Lovino rolled his eyes, "It's not like I'm leaving the continent unlike our parents."
"Life with the Vargas twins is never a dull moment." Matthew sighed.
"You can say that again, birdie." Gilbert agreed, "Lovino's always unawesomely complaining, and Feli's always," he paused, "being Feli."
"Who're ya talkin' to, Gilbert?" Alfred asked.
"Just your brother." Gilbert put a hand on Matthew's head.
"Oh, hey, Mattie." Alfred greeted, "When'd you get there?"
"I've been here for a while now." Matthew sighed.
"Don't worry, Feliciano." Ludwig sighed, "If Lovino can't see you as often then I'll keep you company."
"Keep your hands off him, you potato idiot." Lovino growled.
"Ve! Why don't I help you pack fratello?" Feli suggested trying to keep his brother from killing Ludwig.
"Whatever." Lovino scoffed.
The next afternoon, Lovino found himself, Feliciano, Gilbert, Francis, and Ludwig outside of Antonio's door. Gilbert knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" a voice called.
"Only the awesome me." Gilbert called, "And his not as awesome friends."
The door opened, and the group saw a smiling Spaniard.
"Antonio, how are ya?" Gilbert asked.
"Perfectly well." Antonio replied.
"Bonjour, Toni." Francis said.
"Okay, let's see." Antonio looked at the group, "We've got Feli, Gilbert, Francis, Ludwig, and-" he looked at Lovino, "Lovi!" he glomped the older Italian.
"Gah! D-don't touch me!" Lovino shouted struggling to get away from the other man.
"Well, let's get you settled in my home!" Antonio exclaimed, and they all went inside.
