A/N: This is an English translation of the story. I, man… I AM SO CHEESY. xP Well, at least when I write in Filipino. But yeah… here's the English version just to help me settle down.

"I'm so sorry. If it wasn't for the typhoon, we would have been in China's house already."

"It's okay, Philippines!We were getting bored anyway. Damn, it's like we can't even step on the ground because of these conferences!"

"It's good that we landed safely herebefore the storm came. Even from the plane, I couldn't see the ground at all."

"Yeah- ay! Bossing, sorry but can my friends stay over at the Palace? Ha? Thank you! Okay… Estados Unidos, Canada, let us go to the Malacañang."

Storms and typhoons visit the Philippines regularly during this time of year. However, the nations' gatherings still continue. The world is facing major crises these days that long, awkward travels are nothing just so they can meet up and talk.

China offered to host this time's conference. Perhaps most of the countries are already there. That is why Philippines is worried because she offered to travel with America and Canada.

"Chill out, Philippines! Canada and I don't mind, right?" said America and nodded to Canada.

Canada smiled and tapped Philippines' shoulder, "That's right. The conference doesn't start in five days anyway so it's fine. The others will inform us is were running a bit late, eh."

"But you see, it's been awhile since we've been together and Lady Luck decided to mess with us now of all times. I-I don't want to inconvenience you! And you guys look so tired and-"

"Miss Kalayaan?" a burly man interrupted, "Naririto na po ang kotse. (The car has arrived.)"

Philippines turned around and smiled at the burly man, their driver. She nodded to America and Canada and the group began to walk to the car. The driver helped the nations place their luggage into the vehicle and the two foreign nations muttered their gratitude in Filipino.

"Abay, marunong pala mag-Filipino ang mga kasama mo, Miss Kalayaan! (Why, your guest actually know how to speak in Filipino, Miss Kalayaan!)"

The group just chuckled and went to get in the car. Once seated, a disappointed frown appeared on Philippines' features again.

"Mayumi, you worry too much." Said America to Philippines. They cannot call themselves by their nation names because a human is nearby. "It'll be okay! We'll just treat this as some kind of vacation! Ha, it's been awhile since we've been on a vacation."

"If you let me borrow your kitchen, I'll make you some pancakes, eh? Don't be sad, Mayumi."

Philippines gave an apologetic smile, "Sorry, Alfred, Matthew. I'm just stressed, is all."

"Miss Kalayaan, baka gusto niyo pong dumaan ng pagkain. Siguro'y gutom rin ang dahilan ng pagka-istress niyo. (Miss Kalayaan, perhaps you would like to buy some food. Hunger must be one of the reasons for your stress.)"

"Food?" America beamed and peered through the car window like a child. "I see McDonald's! Can we get some burgers? Please? Please?"

Canada sighed. "Alfred, settle down. See, even Mr. Driver here thinks you're acting like a child."

"But-"

"Okay, okay. Manong, mag-drive-thru nalang tayo sa Mcdo. Baka umiyak pa 'tong lalakeng 'to. (Mister, let's just go to McDonald's and drive-thru. I'm afraid this guy would cry.)" Philippines laughed.

"Hey!I don't cry over food!"

The others just laughed heartily as America ordered their food.

…

…

Once at the Malacañang, guards and helpers immediately greeted the nations. They were led to a branch in the Palace that Philippines' boss let her stay. Once the humans had left, Philippines showed America and Canada their rooms.

"As much as I'd want to let you stay at my own home…" Philippines sighed, "I could not. Flood entered, you see."

"Oh? Sorry to hear about that." Canada answered while America started exploring the house. He frowned. "You don't think he'd get lost, would he?" he asked.

"He'll show up if we use his burgers as bait, won't he?"

The two nations giggled and suddenly a loud scream rang through their ears. Canada and Philippines ran to the source only to find America jumping up and down excitedly as he pointed at a large object covered with a thick piece of cloth. Canada rolled his eyes.

"Is that a karaoke machine?" America began excitedly. Philippines nodded awkwardly and was suddenly hugged tightly. The embrace ended quickly as well as America wrapped his arms around Canada this time. "Does it still work? Can we use it, Mayumi?"

"G-Get off of me, Al!"

"I think it still works," she answered while removing the cover and trying to turn it on. She chuckled silently at Canada's complaints. Ang cute talaga nila. Bagay sila… bagay na bagay. (They are so cute. They suit each other… really suit each other.) she said to herself while smiling just like that other female nation that also love these kind of stuff. Now the karaoke began to work and she hastily removed the intriguing grin on her face. "Yep, it still works!Gusto mo bang kumanta, Alfred? (Do you want to sing, Alfred?)"

"Hell yeah! And you guys are gonna join me!"

Canada shook his head. "I-I don't want to. We might interrupt people in the Palace…"

"No we won't! Right, Mayumi?"

After dusting the machine, Philippines pulled it out of the room to place it outside in the spacious living room. She set it up and smiled at the nations whilst pulling them to look at the karaoke machine clearly. "No one will hear you. The house is sound-proofed."

"Awesome! Where's the song book?" Philippines gave a thick clear book to the American. America then happily accepted it and flipped through its contents. "Does it have any duet songs?"

"Duet?" She asked. She did not notice Canada's rapidly spreading blush. "I think so… but all the songs there are in Filipino…"

"It's okay! Mattie and I know a few Filipino duet songs."America smiled and approached the machine."Come here, Mattie! Grab the other microphone and I'll punch in the first song."

Music vibrated throughout the living room and Canada blushed an even deeper shade of red, like he knew the song. "I do not want to sing that song with you!"

It's as if Philippines had only realized now what was happening and she laughed. Silently, she left the living room to grab her trusty video camera from somewhere. She returned only to see America still adding more songs and Canada fervently refusing to sing. She started filming secretly without any of the two noticing.

No one could explain Philippines expression.

No one can explain but it certainly looked just like that one other female nation in Europe.

"At least choose something that isn'ta duet! Aren't you embarrassed at all?" Canada shouted but it was only answered with a laugh. "Stop that song right now!"

"Oh come on, Mattie! Here, I'll start:Bakit 'di magawang limutin ka~ bawat sandali'y ika'y naaalala-(Why can't I forget you? Every moment, I remember you -)"

"Stop it!"

"-makapiling ka… muli~ (To be with you… again)All right, Mattie! Your turn!"

"…"

"Please?"

Canada sighed exasperated, breathed in deeply and grabbed the other microphone in annoyance. America's smile was too bright. Too bright.

"Bakit 'di ka maalis sa isip ko… (Why can't I get you out of my mind…)"

If it were possible, Philippines' smile widened even more. Her eyes focused on the two who seemed to have forgotten about their companion. She doesn't care though because they might just tell her to stop filming and destroy her camera. So she entertained herself with watching the handsome nations singing like it have been their career since forever.

They even added choreography, wow.

"Kaya't hanggang ngayon~ (That is why even now)" America sang while Canada dealt with the voicing. America is kind of off-tune now however it's easy to brush off because of the actions the two made. "Ikaw pa rin ang iniibig ko… (You're still the one I love…)" America breathed huskily and Canada blushed. "Ikaw pa rin ang natatangi~ing… pangarap ko~! (You're still my only dream)"

The song is almost finished and Philippines is almost at the brink of passing out what with the things she has been watching. She's practically hyperventilating and drooling over the scene. At the last line of the song, America and Canada approached each other and stuck to each other closely.

"Ikaw lamang… (Only you…)"

It was only then that Philippines realized that Amerika was taller than Canada because he had to lean ever so slightly to… O Diyos ko po! (Oh my god!). Canada had his eyes shut – he was feeling the song a little too much. And he was the one refusing to sing in the first place.

Canada was left singing alone now as America slowly brought his lips toward the others. Philippines could die happy now. "Hanggang nga- mmph!" Canada was cut off by the sudden kiss.

If she could scream now, she would however she doesn't want to interrupt her filming and the other nations' alone time. So she went all out with hyperventilating instead. When America pushed Canada down onto the couch in the room, no one could imagine the female nation's glee.

Just use your imagination as to what happened next.

Guess what was the first thing Philippines reported in the conference…

…

And~ this is what happens when you do too much karaoke. And watching couples sing duets while reading fanfiction. Yep. So yeah, it's the English version! I hope you enjoyed it somehow… it doesn't sound so humorous now that it's not in Filipino. Oh well. ;A; go listen to the song is you want to! It's called Hanggang Ngayon by Regine Velasquez and Ogie Alcasid. Yep. I like singing that song with my friends. With actions. Yep.

You may kill me now/shot.

Not proofread. Sorry for any grammar and spelling mistakes! Too lazy. :P Tell me if I missed any words or sentences that needs translating.

So, what do you think? ;A;
