Disclaimer: I do not own Hetalia. In Arthur's POV. Sorry I've been gone for a while, but I'm back and this story will be better than ever.

I went to my room to get ready for my date with Alfred.

'This is so fucking exciting! I'm finally going on a date with Alfred.' I've dreamed about this for the longest time. However, I opened my closet and stared as I realized I had nothing to wear. All I had were a bunch of suits for the meeting.

'Crap. I can't go out like this. I guess I'm just going to have to buy something.' I wish I knew where we were going though. I went to my phone to call Alfred.

"Hey what's up!"

"Hi Alfred I was wondering where we were going later."

"Oh yeah. I was kinda thinking we could go to the park and hang out or something. We could go around 3."

"That sounds great. I'll see you later."

"Ok bye."

All right I've got a few hours before my date to go buy something to wear. I headed out my door and ran into Elizebeta.

"Hey Elizebeta."

"Hey Arthur. Where are you off to?"

"Oh I'm just going out for a bit of fresh air." 'I couldn't tell her the truth for fear she would go into a crazed fantasy about Alfred and I being in a relationship.'

"Oh ok well have fun-...wait I sense something."

"W-what?" 'Oh crap did she figure it out.'

"Yaoi senses. Tingling." She kept sniffing around until her eyes locked on me and she smiled.

I felt uncomfortable and I decided to make a break for it.

"Well I go to go bye!" I said quickly as I ran down the hallway and pushed the elevator button. The doors opened instantly as I rushed inside. I repeated pressed the door close button pleading for the doors to close faster. Just before they were about to close, a hand suddenly shot in and stopped it. I cowered in the corner as she slowly walked in with an evil smile on her face.

"Now Arthur. Like I asked, where are you going?"

The door closed and I was trapped. Fearing for my life, I explained everything that happened and how I was going to get something to wear for my date with Alfred. The doors opened as we reached the lobby.

"Oh Arthur how wonderful! I must go with you to ensure that your date goes smoothly. It's my duty as a yaoi fangirl." She looked determined. I sighed as I agreed to let her come with me knowing I had no say in the matter. We walked to a simple boutique downtown.

She ended up getting me a pair of brown skinny jeans, a dark brown and green stripped t-shirt, a brown jacket similar to Alfred's jacket, and a pair of black and white vans.

"Hmm...it seems like it's missing something."

"How much does this cost anyway?"

"Love doesn't have a price Arthur." She said with a fire in her eyes.

"The fuck it doesn't." I said as I looked at the tag. I was stunned. I couldn't speak.

"Now Arthur before you say anything, you look amazing and Alfred will love that on you." She said as she held up her hands defensively.

"1000 dollars! You're making me pay 1000 bloody fucking dollars to live out your bloody fantasies!"

"Now. Now. Arthur calm down so we can talk about this like civilized people. Wait that's it!"

"What's it?" I said still livid.

She ran off to the other part of the store waiting for her to come back. She returned with a brown knit slouchy hat and put it on my head.

"Oh great something else I have to pay for."

"No worries I'll pay for it all. It's the least I could do."

"Thanks but as a gentleman I can't allow you to pay for it all. How about we split it?"

"Whoa. I am a strong, independent woman and I can pay for things myself thank you very much." She huffed as she marched to pay for the clothes. I stood there stunned.

We walked back to the hotel. 'I looked at my watch and saw that it was 1:00. Great I have plenty of time to get ready for our date.'

"Thanks Elizebeta I owe you for this one."

"No need just tell me in explicit detail what happens."

"Right" I opened my door and walked in.

"Oh Arthur."

"Yes?"

"Have you even considered wearing a thong for the date?"

I closed the door and heard her huff as she walked away.

'She at least means well.' I thought as I walked to the bathroom to take a shower. The warm water cascaded down as I washed myself with my favorite cinnamon stick body wash. I slid on the clothes we bought and looked at myself in the mirror.

'Wow. I actually look pretty good. Normally Alfred sees me in like a suit or a sweater vest.'

I went to go put in my contacts until I realized I threw out my old pair thus morning and forgot to bring an extra pair. 'Oh no! Well I still have time to get a new pair.' Just then my phone rang.

"Hello."

"Hey Artie! I decided to come get you early. I'll be there in a min."

"Uh wait-" he hung up before I could say anything. Crap I can't wear my glasses they make me look dorky. I heard a knock at my door. Shit I guess I'm just going to have to wear them. I hope they don't throw off my look.

"Just a minute." I yelled. I put on my black, thick framed glasses and opened the door.

"Hey Artie I-"

Oh great maybe I shouldn't have worn the glasses or maybe he dislikes the outfit.

"Hey Alfred. I'm s-"

"Wow you look amazing!" He said as he smiled.

"Really?" I blushed.

"Yeah of course. I especially like the glasses. You look kinda like a hipster."

"Thanks. I guess."

"No worries it's a compliment. Now come on." He grabbed my wrist as he led me down the hallway. This is great he actually likes my outfit. As we were walking out of the hotel, I couldn't help but notice that Alfred and I were holding hands. Alfred looked great he was wearing his usual jacket, a pair of dark blue jeans, a Captain America t-shirt and a pair of black and white converses. I couldn't help but blush. He looked hot.

We made it to the park and decided to toss the Frisbee for a while.

"Hey Artie wait here."

I decided to sit under a tree as I waited for Alfred and I was glad when I saw him coming back with two vanilla ice cream cones.

"Hey dude. I got us some ice cream."

"Yes I can see. Thanks." I smiled. He sat next to me and kissed me on the cheek as he handed me my ice cream. I couldn't help but blush act his actions. We just sat there and talked as we watched the sun go down. Alfred head was gently on my lap as I ran my fingers through his hair.

"This has been a great day." He said.

"Yeah." I said. This was perfect and I never wanted it to end.

"Hey we should get going."

"Yeah." I was sad. I didn't want to leave Alfred. He held out his hand and I gently intertwined my fingers with his as we walked back.

As we walked through the garden, Alfred suddenly stopped.

"Hey I have a gift for you."

"Really? What is it?"

"Hold on." He rushed inside and seemed to talking to some guy. He rushed back out and grabbed my hand and led me to the center of the garden. The stars we shinning beautifully and we were surrounded by beautiful flowers. Suddenly music started playing.

(Note: This song is Skyscrapers by Ok Go. You should listen to it while you read this scene. Also, there's a video for it and the dance that's in it is how Arthur and Alfred are dancing.)

Skyscrapers, please forgive me.

I didn't mean a word I said.

Skyscrapers, I was just a tangled up in my own head.

Alfred and I started dancing in the middle of the garden. I listened to every word of the song as we danced passionately.

And somehow in all the madness,

I thought that I was seeing straight.

It ain't always pretty, but it seemed there was no other way.

And I guess all I ever loved was standing right before my eyes, and I, oh oh oh I .. I was blind.

I was so lost in this trance that I almost didn't notice Alfred talking to me.

"When I heard this song I instantly thought of you. I thought of us and everything we've been through. I'm sorry I put you through so much pain."

I felt tears starting to run down my face. I had no words as my mind tried to process things.

So skyscrapers, please forgive me.

I stand here a penitent man.

Skyscrapers, I'll never look down again ... again ...

'Cause I guess all I ever loved was standing right before my eyes.

"It's wasn't you love. It was me. I had to let you go at some point. I couldn't keep you forever. I shouldn't have tried so hard to keep you caged, but instead I realized I had to set you free."

"Yeah but I was wrong to do the things I've done. I didn't realize how much you meant to me. At first I knew I cared about you, but I didn't realize I actually loved you. I denied it at first, but I couldn't resist my feelings. I've always loved. I always have and I always will."

"It doesn't matter what happened before. All that matters it that we have each other now."

Oh yeah, I guess all I ever loved was standing ... was standing ... was standing here all the time, and I .. yeah I .. I was blind ... I was blind ... I was blind

You were right here all the time.

You were right here all the time and I was blind.

We looked into each other's eyes and kissed as the last words to the song played.

I was blind.

I was blind.

oh I was blind.

I was blind.

"I love you." He quietly whispered in my ear.

"I love you too." I whispered back.

We walked back to my room hand in hand. We stood at the doorway to my room. I didn't want this to end; however, we said our goodbyes. We shared a long passionate kiss as I we fully embraced each other, both sides not wanted to leave. We broke apart for air.

"I love you." He said.

"I love you too." I said. He smiled at me before walking down the hall to the elevator. I went into my room and closed the door. I smiled gently as I walked to my room to get ready for bed.

"So what were you doing with him today?" I knew that voice so well. I've heard it constantly throughout my life.

"Well if you must know I was on a date. Why does that concern you?"

"I concerns me because you are mine Arthur. You always have been and always will be." I couldn't help but smirk at that comment.

"I have not and will never be yours. My heart's always belonged to Alfred and you know that." I could feel him tighten his fist as he punched the wall.

"The FUCK it hasn't. You loved me at one point." I swiftly turned around.

"No I didn't and you know that. I never loved you, I just used you. That was just some simple, frivolous relationship that will never be repeated again."

"Why because you have Alfred now. Tsk. He doesn't love you. Not the way I do."

"Don't you realize, I never loved you. I only came to you when I was needy and weak." He slowly approached me and turned my face to look at him.

"I love you. Why can't you realize that. Why can't you remember what we had."

"We were nothing." I said with a fierce look on my eyes.

"Yes we were and I'll be damned if I let some foolish boy come in and take what's mine." I smacked his hand away.

"He's not some foolish boy. He's sweet and kind and determined."

"Yeah determined to get in your pants. I bet he's screwing other people behind your back." I punched him in the face.

"DON'T YOU EVER FUCKING SAY THAT ABOUT HIM AGAIN! Like you weren't having sex with other people behind my back!"

"I did not. I would never."

"Yes you did! I saw you!"

"I don't know what you're talking about, but I swear I'm going to deal with Alfred personally."

"Don't you dare hurt him you slut!" All went silent as my cheek stung and was red. He hit me. He actually hit me.

"I'm sorry."

"GET THE FUCK OUT! I don't know why you decided to interfere with my relationship, but I swear if you do anything to harm Alfred I'll end you." I could see the fear in his face.

"You wouldn't."

"Don't test me Francis. Now. GET. OUT."

"Fine, but this isn't over." He slammed the door. It was then that I realized I had been crying. I cried some more as I curled into a ball on the floor.

'Why? Why does this have to happen to me? Why now?' It was then that my phone vibrated and I saw that I got a text from Alfred. It was message and a link to the song he played.

You know how couples have songs and stuff. Well, I just realized, this is our song now. This was the best night ever and I'm glad to have you. Goodnight, I love you.

-Alfred

I couldn't help but smile at the text. 'He's all I ever wanted.' I got up and walked to the bathroom to clean myself up and I slid on my pjs. As I laid in bed, I reflected on the events that had occurred today: Elizabeta's kindness, my wonderful first date with Alfred, the problem I had with that dolt Francis, but most of all the moment Alfred and I shared where we confessed our true feelings for each other and promised we would always love each other. Our song. Mine and Alfred's. The beginning of our relationship together.

Well I hoped you liked it! Please continue to review, like and follow. Hey and tell your friends! See you next time. :)
