Song 1: You Leave Me Weak- Toby Keith
Matthew sat on his roof looking over the tree tops surrounding them. Next to him stood Akbar, his eyes closed as the wind blew past him pulling his hair back. Matthew thought of how Akbar had changed him.
He was still the 'big strong silent type' that people always thought him to be but now he feels the need to be 'a girl' to plan fun dates, to appreciate the little things about the man next to him.
Before hair was just hair but Akbar's was soft and flowed like silk between his fingers as the laid in bed at night. To Matthew, the fact that he had even thought of silk made him feel like he had gone weak
Song 2: Ring of Fire- Johnny Cash
Kiss him. That was his only thought as Matthew pushed Akbar against the wall carding his fingers through the long white blond locks. His skin felt like it was on fire as Akbar gently put his on Matthew's hips, just above his belt. Matthew pulled away to breathe and looked in to Akbar's eyes, the usually cool eyes seemed so different, Matthew could not pull himself away he just continued to kiss him, skin burning.
Song 3:Rain Dance The Guess Who
Akbar sat down by the window watching the rain fall against the glass. On the other side of the room Matthew was cleaning the gun.
Akbar did not like it there. The gun. He wanted it gone. It was too painful for him to look at but he understood why Matthew kept it there. The woods were dangerous.
"Put that away." Akbar said still looking at the rain 'Do you want to rain dance?"
Song 4: More Than a Woman- Bee Gees
White lights shown down from above as the two men slowly moved in their own little world. Around them others started to head back to the tables to eat cake and drink champagne, but Akbar and Matt there was nothing else that mattered. To each other they were so much more than just men, boyfriends, lovers. To each other they were security, safety, another person who understands that life is hard and that for there to even just be one person there for them is a beautiful thing.
They just danced as the lights shined bathing in their love for each other.
Song 5:The Twelve Days of Christmas- Dr. Demento
"Matthew?" Akbar asked as he walked into their bedroom.
"What?" Matthew looked up from the paper work he was doing for his bosses.
"your brother sent this to you. There was a message that says 'to help your pathetic love life 'you hoser'" Akbar said as he handed a CD to Matthew.
"The hell?" Matthew grabbed the CD. The cover was blank and nothing was written on it except 'listen to the WHOLE thing' heart Alfie'.
Matthew shook his head 'Thanks Akbar'
'What is it?'
"I don't know let's find out" Matthew opened his CD drive on his computer and started to play the only song on it.
As the two guys started sings Matthew dropped his head on the desk
"THAT FUCKIN SHIT"
Song 6:Livin' on a Prayer- Bon Jovi
Akbar walked to the front of the plane to start the usual safety spiel. Flotation device under the seat, put the oxygen mask on yourself first blah blah blah. Akbar took this job because he and Matthew needed the money, and for a few hours he got to fly. It wasn't the way he dreamed it but it was still something.
Matthew looked up from the seemingly endless mountain of paper work and the cacophony of ringing phones as he continued to crunch numbers for faceless companies who just wanted to expand their own wallets. He needed this job. If he worked hard he would be given a promotion and he and Akbar could stop struggling to meet ends meet.
It was so close for both, they were living on a prayer of promotion.
Song 7: Faithfully- Journey
Miles of grey highway seemed to stretch in front of him. The end still so far. Matthew glanced at the green numbers flashed that it was almost midnight. He hated that he had to be away so long, but this was the only life he knew.
Music had been his way for him to deal with the frustration of not fitting in with his family, of his parents' divorce that quite literally broke his father. It was his escape.
That all changed one night when Matthew and his band played in this pub in a very German neighborhood. Akbar had come with this brother and was just sitting on the stool staring at the walls, there wasn't anything really special about the scene but Matthew still couldn't take his eyes of him.
That had been 3 years ago and now Matthew was rushing home to see him. The road isn't for him anymore, it is where ever Akbar is.
Song 8: Take the Money and Run- Steve Miller Band.
"GET IN THE CAR!" Matthew shouted as he fired more shots into the bank. Akbar ran after him, jumping into the open car door as Matthew started to drive off.
"DON'T LET THEM BASTARDS GET AWAY!" The officer shouted as he ran to his car, his underlings shooting the tires.
Matthew pulled off his mask as he drove down back alleys dodging the cops.
"I suppose the nest thing is we go to Mexico like you planned?" Akbar asked shedding the ridiculous mask.
"you bet love"
Song 9: Sussudio- Phil Collins
Matthew sat slumped against his bar stool, staring down his drink. The overly loud music making it impossible to think. Damn that Al he thought. Why the hell did he let his brother drag him to these stupid bars. The music was loud, the people where stupid, plastered, or not even worth the energy it took to make conversation. Matthew finished his drink and went to smoke out behind the bar.
The cool air felt good on his face. He closed his eyes and breathed for a moment resting his head against the old brick walls. He dug into his pockets pulling out a slightly crumpled pack of cigarettes, as he continued digging he found a hole in his back pocket where the lighter he keeps usually is.
"Fuck" Matthew lightly banged his head against the wall
"Need a light?" Matthew opened his eyes to find a silver haired man standing next to him
Song 10: Ando muy Borracho- Texas Tornados
Matthew wobbled out of the bar and started walking back home. The walk wasn't too long but long enough for the alcohol in his system to really mess him up.
He stumbled up the stairs to his apartment and before he walked in he turned and went to his neighbor's door and pounded against it until they opened up.
"Yes?" Akbar opened the door to find a drunk Matthew leaning heavily against his door jam.
"You…hic… don't care if I'm sad and lonely!" Matthew shouted his words slurred together "I have worked so h…hard to get you to…fucking notice me… but …you don't seem to care…you always…fucking disappear…I just want ….you to fucking notice me…'
"I notice you Matthew, how can I not when you show up drunk on my door step." And with that Matthew face palmed and slide the floor out for the night.
-The End-
A/N: Hello, I wrote these drabbles based on AppleBagel's descriptions of 2p!Canada (Matthew) and 2p!Prussia (Akbar). The Al/Alfie mentioned every now and then is 2p!America. I also worked off the headcannon I have for 2p!France that he was in love once (with 2p!England) but when it ended horribly it kind of broke him and he never believed in love again after that. I hope I did her characters justice. I have really fallen in love with thesis two and wanted to try my hand at writing them. I hope to have another set up in the not too far future.
