Russia glances over a distance and smiles

"What are you looking at, aru?" China asks.

"You" Russia replies with a smile.

China blushes, "oh"

Russia blushes a little and moves on.

"IVAN! WAIT UP, ARU!" China runs after him.

"What?" Russia asks.

"You forgot, this, aru" China hands him his vodka.

"Thanks" Russia gives China a kiss on the cheek.

China blushes and smiles. Russia mimics him.

"Remember Ivan, you have to call me by my human name, aru" China says.

"Yao ... hm" Russia says.

"yes Ivan, aru?"

"Do you ... a mean are you... ummmm ..."

"Am i what, aru?"

"Do ... you ... want to ... marry me" Russia brings out a ring.

"Yes, aru"

"Hehe thank you"

"I love you Ivan, aru"

"I love you too, Yao"

China is back at home and is looking at the ring when America comes in for a visit.

"HIIIIiii ... what is that?" America asks.

"it is an engagement ring, aru. what does it look like, aru?" China says.

"who, who, who?"

"Ivan, aru"

"O...M...G! this is going on my social-network"

"must you announce everything, aru?"

"YES, O...M...G it's a cat in a washing machine"

"okay, aru"

"what is ok?"

"nothing, aru. so what do you want, aru?"

"well i was board and now I'm hear there is so much to talk about you being engaged and all"

"really, aru? what else is there to talk about, aru?"

"what are you going to do for the wedding?"

"well... we haven't decided on a date yet, aru. but Ivan looked worried for some reason, aru. i wonder why, aru?"

"hmmmmmmm ... AH ... uh oh"

"what is it, aru?"

"you know a country called Belarus?"

"yes, she is Ivan's sister, aru"

"weeeell, Belarus has ... a thing for Russia"

"what kind of thing, aru?"

"an ... obsessive love"

"well... it is not like she knows yet, aru" China is hoping America hasn't posted the news yet.

"ahh ... i sent the news all ready"

"wha... then that means she will be on her way here, aru. WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME SOONER, ARU?"

"well"

The door suddenly bursts open.

"where is he?!" Belarus asks.

"who?" America asks.

"the one who stole my big brother from me" Belarus says with an evil look in her eye.

"i will repeat myself ... who?"

"WHERE IS CHINA!?"

China has taken refuge under the table.

"maybe he's ... ummm ... with Russia?" America says.

"is he now? so where is Russia?" Belarus asks.

"at the bar baying vodka or something"

"if you are lying i will be back" Belarus leaves.

"let's hope you'll be back with a burger for me and NOT to kill me"

"i do not think she wants you dead, aru" China says from under the table.

"you can come out now she's gone" America says.

China comes out from under the table, "she is going to kill me, aru"

"eventually ... maybe?"

"you are no help at all, aru"

"i hope she does not come back, aru. Ivan will be away tonight, aru. what will you be doing tonight, aru?"

"hmmmm... good question?"

"i am going to... try and not sleep tonight, aru"

"good idea then you can act like Italy every time you see someone"

"thank you for that image, aru" China says sarcastically.

"NO PROBLEMS!"

that night, China says goodbye to America.

"you will come back in the morning, aru? i do not know when Ivan will be back, aru" China asks.

"ok! Bye" America says.

"good night, aru"

later that night, China has gone to get a glass of water when he feels like someone is watching him. he looks round and sees Belarus standing behind him

"Russia belongs to me" Belarus says.

the next morning.

America knocks on China's door, "helloooo! CHINA! HELLOOO!"

no one answers but the door is unlocked... or rather looks like it's been kicked in.

America looks confused. He opens the door and finds the "mess". China is covered in deep cuts and is curled up in a ball and isn't moving.

"sh-"America runs over to China's side and kneels down beside him, "China are you ok?"

China's breathing is shallow.

"I've got to get him to someone who can help?" America tries picking him up… he tries again, "few i need to work out more" he finally picks up China and carries him to a hospital.

America phones Russia at the hospital.

"huh? Yao is WHAT?" Russia asks.

Russia meets America outside China's room. Japan is with him.

"who could do this to you?" Russia asks but quickly notices China is still out cold, "AMERICA! who did this to Yao?"

"i would like to know too" Japan says.

"it ... was ... Belarus PEAS DON'T KILL ME!" America says.

"Belarus? but why did she do this?" Japan asks.

"oh yes you don't have social networks. Well Russia proposed to China" America tells him.

"you did?" Japan asks Russia.

"yes" Russia says slight blush, "but we have to find Belarus and make her PAY!"

"i will stay with China in case she decides to come here" Japan says.

"I'll help Japan" America says.

"no you're coming too" Russia grabs him, "you got him in too this and you should help get him out"

"i will call you if i see her" Japan says.

"right" Russia says, "let's go to her house she's probably there"
