Summary: 30 Day Drabble Challenge. USUK. Because sometimes it's not always easy to pick up all of the pieces. Maybe he wasn't ready to forgive him for what had happened between them in the past, but perhaps it was prime time for the two of them to experience a new beginning.

So, I'm doing a 30 Day drabble challenge, and I figured I'd post my drabble for each day on here. Right now, the only pairing is USUK, but Spamano and DenNor might happen, too. Just so you know. They'll all be based off of the 'repairing relationships' theme described in teh summary, though. And please note that not all of the drabbles will be interrelated. In any case, hopefully you'll like it. We'll just see how it goes. :3 Please enjoy~
Day One Promt: Beginning
Pairing: USUK
He hated days like these. Long days in spent in meetings when he'd rather be outside, tending the garden or playing with his fairies. He emerged grudgingly from the restroom, adjusting his tie and cuffs as he made his way down the hall back to the conference room, wanting to get there well before recess was actually over. He turned into the main hall and hesitated for a moment.
There he was, casually leaning against the wall, tie loosened around his neck quite unprofessionally, chatting away with Lithuania about something absolutely stupid, judging from the expression on the European nation's face. Even now, the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland was doing his best to avoid the North American nation, but to no avail. It seemed that whenever they had one of these meetings, anymore, the young nation would do his very best to go out of his way to talk to him, much to his own chagrin.
He took a deep breath, readying himself to walk down the hall, hoping that if he maintained a brisk pace, America wouldn't even bother trying, and would just continue bothering Lithuania instead. He should have known better. Once the two at the end of the hall saw him coming, Lithuania waved the American a quick goodbye and went ahead into the conference hall, leaving the two of them alone.
America stepped forward as he approached, though Britain did his best to avoid the other's eyes. He couldn't overlook the welcoming, almost nervous smile on the other nation's face, and he could feel his own coloring slightly in response.
"Hey," the American nation murmured, his voice quiet, almost shy. It was so out of character for the normally rambunctious, almost obnoxious nation that brought Britain's green eyes to meet America's blue.
He didn't want to talk to him. He didn't want to give him another chance to get too close. He didn't want to risk getting hurt again, but despite all of that, the look in the American's eyes, almost desperate for his attention, made all of that seem to fade in the background. After that, it his mouth practically moved of its own accord, and through no will of his own.
"Hello. Dreadfully boring, this meeting, isn't it?" The look of surprise, followed almost immediately by one of intense pleasure, made it all worth it. He had never been able to resist the younger nation, after all.
Maybe he wasn't ready to forgive him for what had happened between them in the past, but perhaps it was prime time for the two of them to experience a new beginning.
