Alfred was having one of those random parties that he liked to have. Elizaveta stood awkwardly in some corner, listening to the songs that were playing loudly throughout the house and watching a certain Prussian as he talked to the other nations. The next song that came on almost made Elizaveta run out of the room because it seemed to relate exactly to her and her situation. She listened to the lyrics that she's heard a thousand times already and a series of flashbacks played through her mind.

~I used to think one day we'd tell the story of us.

How we met and the sparks flew instantly.~

The young Hungarian fell to the ground, bullied and picked on by the Teutonic Knights. One stood out though. Elizaveta guessed that he was the Prussian that she'd heard about the other day, the one with silver hair and red eyes. Said Prussian came to her and helped her up. She stared in shock as he introduced himself in a rather cocky manner.

"I am the awesome Prussia! But you can call me Gilbert!"

"Hey there, Gilbert," Elizaveta said. "I'm Hungary! My name's Elizaveta though~"

She hugged him and quickly thanked him for helping her up. Gilbert's face had reddened a little. Ignoring it, he smiled and hugged back. They both knew that they'd be the best of friends. Yes, they'd fight and argue but that was part of the whole ordeal.

~People would say "They're the lucky ones"~

Gilbert and Elizaveta walked down the sidewalk, hand in hand. They didn't care that people were staring at them. They were as happy as could be and nothing would be able to crush their mood. Nearing an ice cream shop, Elizaveta pulled on the boy's arm. While he ordered some ice cream, the brunette heard someone say,

"Look, man. They're so lucky! My girlfriend doesn't even want to be with me in public!"

~I used to know my place was the spot next to you

Now I'm searching the room for an empty seat

'Cause lately I don't even know what page you're on~

It had been a week since the couple's fight. The two fought before, but never like that night.

"God, Gil! Will you leave me alone for a little? I'm trying to get some work done!"

"I know I'm sexy, but you don't have to stare at me~ I'll leave the room, just for you though~"

Elizaveta decided that she was through with him and his 'I'm so awesome' crap.

"Gilbert, I'm sick and tired of you always bloating about yourself! It's like you're in love with your own reflection," she shouted at him. Gilbert looked at her, his eyes telling her that she'd hurt him. However, the Prussian would not lose this fight.

"If you think I'm that in love with myself, maybe I should just go date a mirror instead of you! It won't be that bad, actually. I wouldn't have to deal with you and your crazy, bitchy ass!"

"Fine! If that's how you want it, maybe I'll just go back home!"

"I don't care! Go bother Roderich or something, I don't have time for your complaints!"

The fight ended with Elizaveta slamming the door closed and arriving home in tears.

Unfortunately, there was a world meeting. When lunch time arrived, the nations had to eat in the same huge cafeteria. Usually Gilbert and Elizaveta sat together but today Elizaveta searched to room for an empty seat at some table far away from the albino. She avoided his glaring red eyed when she walked past his table and sat down somewhere else.

~Oh, a simple complication

Miscommunications lead to fall out~

She had to tell him that she missed him, but how? The young Hungarian tried calling him with Roderich next to her. To her surprise, he answered. The conversation started out okay and almost ended peacefully. Almost. There was a slight interference which caused static to muffle Elizaveta's words. The sentence went from, "Oh, Roderich is cooking something lovely!" to "Oh, Roderich is just something lovely!" which made Gilbert think that they were now dating. He hung up on her without saying bye and this left poor Elizaveta clueless and frustrated at the same time.

~So many things I wish you knew

So many walls up, I can't break through.~

Elizaveta had tried many times to call him back. She tried e-mail, hand written letters, texts, just about anything but she still waited for the man that she missed to reply to anything. He had avoided her when she took a direct approach and she felt like he wanted her to stay out of his life. Ironically, he thought the same thing.

~Now I'm standing along

In a crowded room

And we're not speaking~

The flashbacks stopped and now the lyrics described her right now, at the party. She and Gilbert haven't talked since and Elizaveta knew that they weren't going to talk anytime soon.

~And I'm dying to know

Is it killing you

Like it's killing me?~

Just watching him made her want to run out of the room. She had to find something to do before he noticed her there. She watched as he grabbed some random dance partner to a slow song that played in another room.

~I don't know what to say

Since a twist of fate

When it all broke down

And the story of us

Looks like a tragedy now~

Elizaveta sat sadly, wishing she was that person whose face she couldn't see. She got up to leave but stopped short as she felt a hand on her shoulder.

"Hey, do you want to dance…?" a man by the name of Roderich had asked. She smiled a little and nodded. They went to the dance floor and she purposely danced in front of Gilbert. She was disappointed to find out that he didn't once look at her and the Austrian. His ruby-red eyes stayed focused on his small dance partner, who Elizaveta realized was Lilli.

~Next chapter.~

A/N: SONGFIC IS FAIL. ASDF. I was going to get Lunar Phantom updated but I couldn't get this song out of my head! I'm planning on having the next chapter up with the second verse, but end it at the whole, "Silence quite this loud" lyrics. |D
