CHAPTER 3
"Prussia stole Lily's hairband, and she's all up in arms about it. I swear to God, China! She swore." He grabbed China by his shoulders, shaking the elder nation slightly, eyes widening. "Do you like, have any idea how huge that is? Liechtenstein never swears, China! And it wasn't like, 'oh what the hell where's my favorite skirt' or 'fuck my life my hair won't cooperate'. She was literally swearing at us!"
"I think he gets the idea-" Lithuania attempted to interject, but Poland glared back at him.
"Liet, like, shut the hell up." Poland scowled, then turned back to China. "She says she wants you to go find Prussia and tell him to, and I quote, "tell Prussia to give it [her hair band] the hell back." So we're here to tell you to go tell Prussia to give it the hell back. Poland pulled his cell phone, checking the time. His eyes went wide, and he flailed slightly, holding up the phone for China to see. "It's already nine o'clock. It's already nine o'clock. Oh my god, we don't even have the main hall's decorations done yet!" Poland shouted something incoherent in Polish, then grabbed Lithuania's arm and rushed off, leaving China all by himself, for a moment.
Suddenly, Wy came running out of nowhere, absolutely sobbing, bleeding from a cut on her hand and crashed right into China, jumping back with a scowl. "Watch where the hell you're going! Who do you think you- … China!" Wy frowned shaking her head with a huff. "You still should've been watching where you were going. But," Suddenly aware of the pain in her hand again, she started to sob once again. "help me. My hand hurts so bad. Big Brother Australia told me to stay in the dressing room. But stupid Ladonia cut me. He didn't even say sorry. He laughed at me!" Wy pouted, stomping a foot on the ground. "Ladonia is a bloody wanker." There was a pause. "Oh. Ladonia tell me to tell you that Hungary told him that Austria told her that Greece told him that he broke some of the strings on his harp. So he went to get replacement strings. But that was like three hours ago. So Hungary told Ladonia to tell me to tell you to go find him." She started sobbing again. "My hand. Fix it, Mr. China!" Wy cried, tugging at his shirt.
Liechtenstein froze when she heard the door open, looking up quickly as Vietnam entered. Lili stood quickly, turning to face the window, attempting to keep her face (which was currently red from crying) out of Vietnam's line of sight. She almost went to wipe at her eyes, but then realized that would be a terrible idea (white sleeves and mascara hardly ever mix). "H-Hello Vietnam." Her voice was quiet, and she sounded hoarse – just like she'd been crying for ages. "I-I'm sorry I'm in your dr-dressing room. But Monaco pretty much took over mine. A-and no one was in here, so I was like, 'Why not!' I-I hope that's alright..." She laughed nervously. Monaco left. Maybe Vietnam doesn't know that. Do Monaco and Vietnam even get along? Maybe I'll get lucky and Vietnam won't know that.
"America?" Canada poked his head into the room where Korea was waiting with the rest of the groomsmen and the Best Man, whom was of course America. "Oh, Korea!" Canada offered a warm smile, stepping inside the room. "I hope you're feeling better. You really shouldn't drink so much." Canada suggested lightly, turning towards America. The Canadian's smile slowly turned into a frown, and he tilted his head to the side slightly, biting his lip. He tugged at his sleeve, seeming very nervous for what he was about to say.
"Just spit it out." Hong Kong, who was playing with a DS in the corner, snapped at him. Canada sighed slightly, leaning against the doorway.
"Look. I know it's Korea's day. But. France isn't around for me to ask... and neither is England... I can't ask Holland. So you're pretty much my last resort, Alfie, and I apologize for bugging you. But," Canada's eyes went wide, and he glanced out into the hallway, making sure no one was coming, before turning back to America. "C-could you help me with Belgium, Alfie? I don't know what to do. I'm out of ideas."
Being left with a crying, injured Wy, China had to admit, wasn't exactly what he wanted to deal with right now. He got down on the girl's level and brushed some hair out of her eyes, causing her to look up. "Let's go get you a bandage, ok? China ye ye will fix it right up." He gave Wy a reassuring smile and stood up. Taking her good hand, he led her to the kitchen where they kept a first aid kit. Avoiding the hustle and bustle of activity, China lifted Wy up and set her on one of the spare counters. He took some disinfectant and put it on the cut, and then wrapped a small bandage around it. "All better now, right?" The small nation looked up at China and gave him a grateful look. She then hopped of the counter and ran off, probably looking for Sealand, and yelled "Thank you Mr. China" as she disappeared from sight.
'So much for having no injuries today, aru. At least that's over with.' China thought to himself. Deciding that since America and Korea could handle themselves, China decided to head over to the main room, where the ceremony would be held. Decorations were finally beginning to start, and although it wasn't much, China decided, the room truly did glow. It was a mix of Eastern and Western, with incense being lit, flowers being arranged, the colors red, white, and gold accenting the entire room. It was really a sight to behold.
China took a moment to relax and enjoy the scenery. He knew that there wasn't much time until the wedding actually happened, so he decided to enjoy it while he could.
The guests were just starting to come in, well everyone who wasn't there already. One of these guests was Thailand. And he had brought a friend of his. It was Thailand's pet elephant, Toto. Why did Thailand bring an elephant to his brother's wedding? No one really knows, Thailand just does whatever the hell he wants.
What he didn't know is that this wasn't going to fly in a certain European nation's book.
