(Chapter 3) Stranded: Room 402 [USUK]
"Ugh, I have to be stuck with America?" Britain looked over at the person in question, his arms folded in front of his chest. America glared back, the two having harbored a bit of bad blood during their argument while Russia was working out the hotel room situation.
"Yeah, dude, can we change rooms?" The 'dude' he was speaking to shook his head and smiled his signature, somewhat creepy, grin.
"Nyet. The rooms are already decided. Off you go!" The two English-speaking countries exchanged glares, but proceeded towards the stairs. Reaching the room marked '402', they both touched the handle at the same time, bumping each other's hands. They pulled back nervously, and America looked down at his feet, blushing. Having let out an annoyed sigh, Britain opened the door before them, and revealed a room with two beds in the middle. They each chose their own, and turned the lights out. It had been a long day.
"Britain?" When he was a little kid living with England, America always liked to talk after they retired to their beds. Britain usually put up with it, even leading the conversation a few times, but now he didn't reply. "Dude?"
"What in the world could you possibly want from me, America? Any sensible person would know that I would typically be about to fall asleep at this hour, thus giving them a reason not to bother me!" America pouted, which caused Britain's tone to soften. "Fine, what do you want?"
"About earlier... I wanted to apologize... I should've never shared my negative opinion about tea with you... Sorry, Iggy."
"Well, no, you shouldn't ha-" England began, but something in his heart set off a small spark when he heard his old nickname. America was the only one who was allowed to call him 'Iggy', and he hadn't said it in centuries. "Ah, I mean, apology accepted..." America turned the other way in his bed so he was facing towards the wall.
"And, uh... I lhmamph," the American mumbled, which caused the Brit to demand that he spoke up. "I love you, alright?"
