Hey there Zero Chapter2

Mexico was introduced to the whole class who she was. After she told some things about herself she took a seat in the front row right next to America. Even though they were in the same row she was hoping to sit next to Canada but instead he is just a seat away. They were seated like how their shape was ordered on the Map. First Canada second is America, and third Mexico.

For the first time no one heard a loud greeting from America. Every time America came in the class he gave a shout out greeting to everyone but this time he just went straight to his seat and sat down without saying anything to anyone. No one bothered asking instead they just left him that way.

The whole classroom was quiet and everyone listened to the teacher's lecture. As everyone listened to the lecture Canada was getting a little worried. He noticed America just staring blankly at the board and drawing doodles in his notebook. As for Mexico she was paying attention half at the time while the other times she would be staring out the window. A couple of hours passed and it was time to go to Physical Education class. The sport this time was baseball. They all separated into two teams luckily for Canada he was teamed up with America so for sure there will be no baseballs hitting him. As for Mexico she was in the other team with Cuba. The team she was in was at the outfield.

Cuba was the pitcher and he was going to do his best in throwing the ball especially at America. As far as the game went America's team was a score behind Cuba's team. The next to hit was Canada and even though Cuba didn't want to be hard on Canada he had no choice since he was in the same team as America's. Cuba threw the ball as hard as he can. Canada swings his bat hard and fast but still misses leaving their team with a first strike. The second time Canada holds his bat tight in his hand feeling ready and right away when the ball came Canada hits it.

The ball went quite far but not as far where everyone can see it. America hurries and shouts out to Canada to start running. Canada quickly runs as fast as he can all the way to second base. "Okay all I need to do is hit the ball as hard so Canada could get to third and home base" said America feeling quite confident. When America stepped in with a bat in his hands Cuba signaled his team to go further out in the field. Both teams were feeling fired up and ready like it was a worldwide baseball game. America gripped his bat in his hands. Cuba holds the ball tight in his hands and then throws the ball. The ball went fast but in one swing America hits it that it flies out far into the outfield. America drops the bat and rushes to first base. As he rushes, Cuba starts shouting to his players to hurry and get the ball. As one of the players finally finds it Canada has already made it to home base. America's team was now in tie with Cuba's. The player throws it to the player closes to the field but as he throws it to the player in 2nd base America already was rushing to 3rd base. The 2nd base player hurries throws it but it accidently falls 3 feet away from 3rd base in the outer field. The 3rd base player runs to pick it up after he does he notices America standing on 3rd base.

I wonder should I stand here on 3rd base or risk it and try making it to home base. America starts thinking. He looks from home base and to the other player who he see's already walking. America takes a second to look at the player again and starts running to home base. The player quickly notices but as he tries to run he trips by stepping on his shoe lace. He stands on his knees and throws the ball to the player who he sees America passes which is Mexico. Mexico walks backwards as the ball heads to her; she catches the ball in to her glove. She runs catching up to America. As America took a small look behind him he slides his foot on the ground leaving a dust of dirt behind him. Mexico squint her eyes trying to see. As she catches him she hits the ball on Americas back.

So much air dust leaves America and Mexico unseen by everyone. The dust finally clears and the first they see Mexico with the ball in her hand touching America but as the dust starts to clear out more they see Americas foot on home base. Everyone looks at the coach to see if America is safe or not. The coach takes a second to look and rethink. "America is…safe!"

Everyone in America's team cheer for him while leaving Cuba's team disappointed. As America stood up he remembers Mexico behind him He turns to see her. "Hey Mexico you…" Once he turned he sees Mexico walking to the water fountain. He starts walking towards her. As she drinks water he starts talking to her. "Hey Mexico you know you were really great out there. Hardly anyone has catch up to me. Your team pretty much could've won"

She raises her head from the water and wipes her lip using her arm. She then looks at him and points to America's players who were heading into the lockers. "You should go in before the bell rings or you'll end up having to eat lunch with sweat on" She starts walking into the lockers for girls.

"Hey Mexico wait please" Mexico stops but doesn't face him. America speaks again "Let's have lunch together"

Mexico then turns to face him "Sorry but I already have plans with someone else" She then starts walking again.

"Oh okay" America walks to the lockers disappointed.

As he gets there he notices Canada waiting for him "Is something wrong, America?"

America doesn't answer him "Canada, do you know if Mexico has plans with anyone during lunch?"

"No sorry I don't know"

"Oh… thanks"

Meanwhile in the girls locker room Mexico was putting her clothes on and drying her hair from the quick shower she took. I wonder why America would ask me to go have lunch with him. I would've said no even if I didn't have plans. If he asks again I will say no and tell him because I have to go tend the gardens. Chances are I am going to have to do just that especially since I know that all my fruits, vegetables, and flowers are all dead now. Oh well I guess I'll plant something else. Luckily for me I brought different kind of seeds with me.

As soon as everyone got out of the lockers the bell rang to go to lunch. Many students had their lunch either in the cafeteria or inside class. Some would eat somewhere outside or in their club rooms. Everyone spend different ways during lunch.

In the Europe class Spain was waiting quite excitedly for Mexico to come. "Oi so when is Mexico coming anyway?" asked Romano

"Yeah I even invited Japan to come meet Mexico too" said Italy as he started to eat some of his pizza. "So tell us Spain. What kind of girl is Mexico?" asked Germany.

"Girl?! Mexico is a boy? Right, Spain?" asked Romano as he looked at Spain.

"Actually no. Mexico is a Niña. A girl. I told you all about her yesterday remember?" said Spain as Romano tried to remember all the times he mentioned Mexico. But all this time I thought Spain was talking about a boy but instead Mexico is a girl. Now I am really wondering what kind of person is Mexico to Spain.

"So back to my question Spain" Germany repeated.

"Well to answer your question I actually don't know myself. It has been a long time since I've talked her so I am pretty excited to meet her again" Spain smiled as he took a bite of his pizza.

As Spain finished swallowing Japan asked him "You know it's already taking a while don't you think she may be lost since the class she is in is far from this one?"

"Now that you mention it you may be right. I guess I'll go find her can you come with me Japan I don't really know where her class is either."

"Okay"

As soon as they stood up to head out the door Canada came in. "Oh hey Canada" Spain greeted "Is Mexico with you"

"Sorry no. Did you need her?" Canada asked.

"Actually I asked her to meet me but she hasn't came so we thought she may be lost"

"Mexico right now should be heading to the garden. She wanted to see the results on how they look so I guess she may come after"

"Garden?! I didn't know this school had one." Said Spain confused.

"We did in the past actually" England said as he wiped some tea from his lip using a handkerchief "Mexico was the one who started the club but after she left no one took over and now that she has returned she restarted the club again"

"Oh so where is the garden club?" Spain asked.

"Actually that's what I came here to ask England myself" Canada said.

"I'll take you there since I want ask her what she is planning on planting" said England as he stood up from his seat and walked towards Canada.

"I'll go too. Let's have lunch there you guys" said Spain as he turned to face Romano, Germany, Italy, and Japan.

"That's okay with me" said Japan.

"I'll guess go too" said Germany.

"Yeah let's go C'mon Romano!" Italy started tugging on his brother's harm.

"Fine fine" Romano said as he started to pack up his lunch.

"Is it okay if we go too?" Belgium said as she was referring to her and her brother.

"Sure everyone can come along. Anyone who likes to come see Mexico and the garden is welcome!" said Spain as he was referring to the whole class. As the whole class heard some actually started to join. Switzerland and Liechtenstein decided to join. As Finland and Iceland started to follow Sweden, Norway, and Denmark followed behind them. Hungary and Austria were quite curious about the garden so they followed as well. Prussia had nothing to do except to eat lunch so he decided to tag along with France.

They pretty much had a whole group going through the hallway.

Meanwhile America was in the hallway looking out the window thinking if either Mexico lied to him or was telling the truth. As he started to leave he noticed the group passing by him. He got a hold of France's sleeve and decided to ask him. "So what's with everyone?"

"We are going to see the garden that Mexico is going to plant in"

"Mexico?!"

"Yeah she is your neighbor right"

"Yes. Is it okay I come along too?"

"Everyone is pretty much invited to see so of course"

America followed right behind France and Prussia.

At the Garden Mexico was picking out all the dead plants "These should be the only plants I grew but at least I picked up all of them" she said as she had a bag full of dead plants. "Okay now so out around I'll grow the flowers. In the right I'll grow all the vegetables and in the left I'll grow fruits. It'll take forever to grow but it will be worth it soon but at least the cherry trees have finally got big and as soon spring comes they'll bloom beautifully" Mexico started to vision how beautiful that will be. Her daydream was cut short as she heard people behind her.

"So this must be the place that you call your garden?" England said as he walked up to her. "The place is very big." England was astounded at how big it looked. "Do you already have planned what you'll grow?"

"Yes" Mexico nodded.

"Is it okay for us to have lunch here, Mexico?" asked Spain as she showed her the rest behind him. "Oh of course it will be okay but you know there isn't much to admire"

"It's okay"

"Oh and Spain I'm sorry I didn't came earlier" Mexico started looking sad as she apologized to Spain.

" Don't look sad I want you to be happy" Spain gave her smile. As he smiled she had a small blush. "Oh okay"

"So this is Mexico?" Everyone turned to see Romano as he walked up to her. She looked confused as she saw him. He looked up and down at her "I guess she's okay"

Everyone was left confused wondering why he said she was okay. "Everyone here is pretty much here to see you and the garden" said Spain.

Everyone started asking her questions on what exactly she was planting and gave her suggestions. Some like Germany, Switzerland, and France were giving her some tips and said that they'll come once in a while to look around. As she listened to them America was right outside of the group just staring at her with a small frown.

As she noticed him she stared at him quite shocked. He said something but she couldn't hear him but by reading his lips she knew exactly what he said "Were you lying to me?"

As she was about to ignore him he went into between the group and gave her a note and left. Everyone was left surprised by America's sudden leave.

She quickly read the note and written on it said:

Please stay after class is over and until everyone is gone. I am begging you to please stay.
