Arthur wasn't a morning person. Every time he woke up, there was a frown on his face. But today, it was even deeper.
"Stupid morning and stupid world meetings," the Brit murmured as he reluctantly got up from his bed, rubbing his eyes and yawning.
Actually there was a quite good reason for him to be so grumpy. It was the 14th of February. And like that wasn't bad enough, he had to go to a world meeting that day. He knew already that it was going to be a hell; he had to watch couples cuddling and kissing and expressing their love for good five hours. It was really a good reason to frown, don't you think?
With that same irritated expression staying on his face, Arthur brushed his teeth, pulled on a suit and brushed his hair. He wasn't really pleased by his look since his messy hair refused to behave, but he decided to ignore it.
A quick glance at the clock told that he had to go or he would be late.
"This is not going to be nice…," he murmured, stepping into his car and driving towards the hotel were the meeting was taking place.
Arthur was just about to sat down on his seat around the table as he noticed something on his chair. A letter. A valentine. This must be just a cruel joke, he thought as he took the letter, sat down and started to read.
Fantasizing about holding you close, running fingers through your hair
Or kissing your soft lips. Is it normal?
Running through the streets of London, hoping to see you
Even though I know that you don't want to see me
Vanilla is your favorite tea, I'm wondering if your lips taste like it…
Every night seeing your smile in my mind, then falling into
Restless sleep
Year after year trying my best, but still I'm too shy
Or afraid to tell about my feelings
Until the world ends and after that, I will
Remind you that there is always
Someone who loves you more than anything else
,
Falling in love with you was wonderful, but it was a mistake
Remember when we were friends
And now I have ruined everything with my feelings
Nothing can change this anymore; for
Centuries I have love you
Is it so hard to notice?
Say, Arthur, will you ever be able to love me back?
But why is there that comma in the middle of the poem? Arthur thought, frowning as he read it over and over again, but it still didn't seem to make sense.
Then his eyes slowly widened, his mouth opening slightly. The first letters!
"Forever yours, Francis…," Arthur whispered quietly to himself. His eyes wandered around the room until they settled at the Frenchman across the table. Francis wasn't smirking or grinning, there was absolutely nothing teasing in that handsome and a bit nervous expression.
Maybe he's just acting… It must be a joke, he just wants to revenge because I won our last fight... Besides, he wrote that he has loved me for centuries… How is it possible that I haven't notice that?
As he thought about it, there were quite many signs of the Frenchman's love. After all, Francis had always been there when Arthur needed him. Even when Arthur had hurt Francis, he had been there, forgiving and loving him. And the Englishman had been blind, oh so blind.
"Oh Francis…," he mumbled quietly, his eyes getting teary as he got up from his seat and walked over to the other side of the table, earning some stares.
He practically threw himself onto the French, hugging him tightly and sobbing onto his shoulder.
"F-Francis… You twat! You know that I'm not good at this kind of things, you should have told me earlier…," he murmured, hearing Francis chuckle lightly.
At the next moment, Arthur felt two strong arms around him and he was pulled into warm lap.
"I'm sorry… I'm so sorry for being an idiot…"
"Arthur… It's fine. I'm just glad that I'm finally able to hold you like this; it's better late than never. There's no need to be sorry", Francis said, smiling lovingly as he gently grabbed Arthur's chin, lifting his head.
"Oh my… You are so gorgeous, mon cher…," the Frenchman said with a chuckle, his eyes sparkling.
"Yeah whatever… Shut up and kiss me already," was the blushing Brit's answer, and of course, Francis was more than happy to obey the request.
Why can't I write anything longer ;_;
Well anyway, please review and thanks for reading!
