Helen was on the brink of tears. When she looked at the female country that placed a hand on her shoulder, she turned to see the smiling Hungarian. "I'll trust you." Helen had a smile prick at her lips. "Let's get out of here and let the others talk about it."
"Uh," the two brunettes looked at a younger girl with short blonde hair, "I...I will trust you." Helen smiled at her and the blonde blushed.
Another blonde came up and so did a group of girls. "We'll also trust you." The more energetic blonde winked at Helen and made her laugh.
Hungary grabbed the new girl's hand and dragged her into a separate room. "Let's let the men decide now." The group of girls went into the living room and Hungary turned around before she closed the door. She stared at the room filled with the male countries and took in some air to speak. "You better not make her cry. It's horrible to make a girl cry." She glared at Austria as if to say "Especially you." and closed the door.
As Hungary disappeared with the other girls, the men scanned around the table. Italy was thinking about Helen and he instantly knew that he would be able to trust her; the only thing though was the others. Germany didn't know what to think, but he knew that it was his fault this was all brought on. He was very angry at himself and the ones that were with him when Italy's name slipped out could tell. England liked Helen very much and didn't think twice about trusting her; he felt something good from her and knew that she was reliable. America was thinking along the same line, and wanted the others to accept her; he has wanted someone to play games and watch movies with and wanted this "someone" to be a normal person, not a country.
"All right." Austria said standing up and breaking the silence. All eyes went to him and he cleared his throat. "I know we should choose to accept and trust this girl, but we don't know anything about her." He glances at the four that called this entire thing. "Do you know anything about her?"
The men looked at one another and America sighed. "Well, the only thing I know is that she likes games."
"She also likes Shakespeare, reading and writing." England stated.
"And pasta!" Italy added.
Everyone waited for Germany but he shook his head. "I only met her just hours ago and didn't converse with her, so I don't really know anything about her."
Austria released a sigh. "That doesn't give us much information." He looked at the rest of the crowd. "Did anyone else talk with her before we sat down?"
Most of them shook their heads, but Canada instantly remembered. "I-I did." He softly spoke. No one really heard him, so he looked at his twin brother. "I talked with her." He said a bit louder, but being a bit louder only made it sound like he whispered. America wasn't watching his brother; he was fiddling with his thumbs under the table. The Canadian was starting to get annoyed and cleared his throat to speak again. Clearing his throat was loud enough for Austria to hear.
"Did you speak with her...uh...Canada?" The Austrian couldn't really remember the almost invisible blonde, but saved himself when he suddenly thought of Hungary talking about him.
He nodded. "Yes." He said loud enough for almost everyone to hear. "But I only learned that she's Scot-Canadian, Italian and possibly British." The Austrian bobbed his head up and down slowly taking in the little information. "She's was born in New York, is in eleventh grade, has many friends even though that she forgets about having a lot of them, loves to read manga, has an interest in..." the blonde blushed as he remembered what his new friend had told him, "uh...let's just say she like some things that Japan likes." The said Japanese man smiled and thought of all the possible things that the girl could like; one of those things he thought of happened to be yaoi. He couldn't be more right about that subject. "Oh she also said that she's one of the few that are top of her class. She hates to brag but I had asked her some question's about school. She likes math, playing the piano and flute, doesn't really like gym unless they play tennis or volleyball...hmm...i could go on talking about her, but I think that's enough."
Everyone gaped at the usually quite man; they were shocked to the point of astonishment. That was one of the few times they actually heard the man speak without hesitation or stuttering. "Some one obviously likes her." His brother stated with a sly grin on his face.
Matt blushed and glared at Alfred. "Don't you? You were the first one to meet her and try to get to know her. Why is it you know so little about her?"
Alfred blushed and crossed his arms. "We did talk but only about games and movies. She likes most action games and she's a romantic when it comes to movies. She also love anime; she wouldn't stop talking about some anime shows she has seen over a gazillion times. Honestly I didn't mind listening to her share her interests; I think she's the only person that I'd want to listen to."
Arthur gave the American a glare. "You'd rather listen to a girl over some important meetings?"
Alfred looked at the Brit. "Hell yes. She's more interesting than the boring speeches you attempt to give." Arthur scowled. "Don't you like her? You seem to stick to her side whenever you can."
He blushed. "She's great to talk to. She can even quote Shakespeare; she's the only one who wouldn't mind listening to me rant about my problems. She even said so herself. And anyway, she's really nice and has a sense of humor."
The Brit was going to continue but China spoke in. "We can see that the one's who've met her like her, aru, but what we don't know is if she's faking it just to gain our trust and take what's worth taking."
"She doesn't seem like the kind, da?" Everyone looked at Russia. "She may want to go to my sister's place, but she seems nice enough to give our trust to."
"Wow, I never thought you'd praise someone Russia." Everyone agreed with Prussia.
The Russian just smiled. "There are some out there that I can tolerate." Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia shivered in there seats as Russia stared at them for a second. "Besides, if she was like that, she wouldn't have looked like a wallflower who was lost and forgotten; she'd look like a villain scanning for the richest looking person in the crowd, da?"
Everyone thought about that statement and some agreed. "If R-Russia wants to t-trust her, who s-s-says we can't?" Lithuania didn't say this aloud to everyone, but to the two other nervous men. "He d-doesn't trust many p-people." The other two agreed.
"Russia has a point." Spain stated. "And think about it, America doesn't look that rich, Italy had befriended her instantly and Romano hasn't spoken a nasty word about her yet." America looked offended, Italy smiled, and Romano punched Spain's arm. "She has to be good."
No one spoke after that and Austria looked a bit satisfied; there was enough to go by where a country could like her or not, and they obviously were coming to one answer to the question of trust.
oooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Hungary closed the door and turned around to look at the girls. "All right." She goes while clasping her hands together. "What shall we do as the boring men decide her fate?"
Helen chuckled as the Hungarian took a seat next to her. "I think we should introduce ourselves first."
"Good point." Hungary smiled. "I'm Elizabeta, also know as Hungary."
The little shy blonde fiddled with her hair as she spoke next. "I'm Lili. I'm also Lichtenstein."
The energetic blonde smiled. "I'm Belgium, but you can just call me Belle."
"I'm Ukraine and this is Belarus." Ukraine pointed to her sister who just gave off an aura just like Russia and turned away. "We're also called Katy and Natalia."
"I'm Seychelles," a girl with two pig tails and dark skin said, "you can just call me Angie."
"And I'm Taiwan, aka Mei." The last one smiled as she glided in front of Helen. "Please tell us everything about you; this is the first time I've talked to someone who knows about our secret and I want to know everything."
Helen laughed. "My name's Helen." She paused a bit for them to say anything, but figured that their silence meant they wanted more than just her name. "I'm Scot-Canadian, sixteen years old, has a brother who's twenty-four and his name is Spencer, has a confusing family history, likes games, reads books, writes stories, has an interest in yaoi-"
"Oh my god, you like yaoi, too?" Hungary couldn't help but say something. Helen nodded. "Great! Now I know someone else to chat with about that stuff." She hugged her new friend then let her continue.
"-loves math...um...I don't know what else to say about myself."
"Well," Taiwan looked up at her companion, "do you have a boyfriend?"
She shook her head. "No, I've dated before but I'm single now."
"You could go out with one of our boys in there." Seychelles said. Everyone looked at the door then laughed. "Good luck trying to find a good guy from that bunch."
"I don't know, it probably won't be that hard to find one." They looked at her. Even Belarus looked at Helen; she was hoping she wasn't talking about Russia, if she was going to state she likes one of them. "What?"
"Do you have a crush on one of them?" Belgium asks.
Helen shrugged. "Oh come on," Ukraine placed a hand on her shoulder, "for you to say that, you must like one of them."
"How about two of them?" Helen asked without thinking.
"Who do you like?" Lili asked shyly.
Hungary smiled as she patted Lili's head. "You have to tell us, even little Lili is interested." The little blonde blushed.
Helen slouched into the couch and sighed. "I'll give you a hint: they're blondes."
Helen knew that that was a dead give away since she only knew three blonde's and one of them was taken by Italy so... "No way," Hungary goes, "you like America and England?"
Seychelles looked ecstatic. "England's lucky."
"So is America," Belgium stated, "but who's going to get Helen, that's the question."
"A very good question too." Taiwan said.
Helen was being stared down and she sighed. "I don't know. I first met Alfred and instantly liked him, but then Arthur..." she smiled and didn't need to continue.
"England is a gentleman, but watch out when he's drunk." The girls giggle and Hungary continued. "It's going to be tough deciding who to go with, but...when it comes to age I'd say America." Helen agreed. "Then again, sometime England looks younger than the American, but only on occasions. I should know; I've asked Kiku to draw Arthur for me once and almost thought that he made Arthur look around eighteen. Remind me to show you that picture when you come over."
"So I could come to your country?"
"Of course." The girls say. Belarus glanced at the brunette who had the full attention of everyone and thought about something.
"I wouldn't mind either." The scary girl stated while staring at the door.
Ukraine smiled at her sister as the others gawked at her. "Well that's great," Belarus' eyes moved to stare at Helen's smiling face, "Belarus is one of the many countries I want to see."
The said country blushed and turned away from the group, hiding a nice smile that showed her happiness. "We have to plan who has you first though." Taiwan paused as she smiled. "I think you should visit England first."
Helen blushed and the other girls nodded. "Is this what you girls have been talking about this entire time?" They jump as Spain came into the room.
"What the hell España?" Belgium stood up and was about to push her neighboring country out of the room. "This is girl time; you can't be here."
"Aw, but I want to state what I think, too." He whined with his smile. She stopped pushing him and he looked at Helen. "I just want to say this: some countries who met you earlier and know you well believe that you and England will hook up and make a cute couple." She blushed and started fiddling with her hands. "Oh and the meeting over; we've agreed on a decision."
Hungary's face went serious and she stood up. "All right girls," Helen stood next to her and the Hungarian took her new friends hand, "let's all face Helen's fate together."
oooooooooooooooooooooooooo
The men watched as the girls filed out of the room and went to their seats. Austria was still standing and waited patiently for the women to sit. Helen took her place between Canada and Britain; the two blondes smiled at her and she smiled back. "So," Helen looked up at the Austrian with a worried struck look, he felt bad for making her fill up with worry and smiled, "we've all decided." She gulped down her saliva that was building up in her mouth, waiting for their answer.
She knew that she's a civilian that came across a most kept secret, but she didn't want to lose the friends she made. If they didn't trust her, she'd be sad about not being able to learn more about every country; most of all, she wouldn't be able to converse with the countries she liked. I wouldn't be able to play with Alfred or read Shakespeare with Arthur. She sighed and glanced up at the giver of news, waiting for their decision to be said.
Austria closed his eyes as he cleared his throat. Once he opened them, he caught his beloved Hungarian glaring at him. He sighed and smiled at the Scot-Canadian who was fidgeting in her chair. "We're all going to trust you with this major secret." The girl blinked and processed the words before tears welled up in her eyes.
"I told you not to make her cry!" Hungary shouted.
Austria looked between the two girls, worried that he did something wrong. "I-I..." He finally saw what Hungary's face looked like and noticed all the females had the same look. They were all crying with joy; even Belarus had shed a tear, just one though.
"Thank you," Helen whispered, "thank you." She smiled and looked at every new face she was going to memorize sooner or later. She inhaled and exhaled as she looked at Italy. "Wasn't this supposed to be a party?" The men blinked as she laughed. "We should be enjoying some pasta, not having a tense meeting. Well, let's eat up!"
Britain smiled. "Yes, lets."
"Ve!" Italy was glad to have his party start up again and started passing plates.
Once everyone filled their plates, Britain stood up dinging his glass. Every eye landed on him. "Let's make a toast." They all agreed. "To Helen, the new girl who gained all of our trust and will be part of our lives." Helen blushed as the others said "To Helen!" Britain sat back down beside her and smiled. "Welcome to the life of the countries."
"Thank you, Arthur." She smiled as he took her hand and nodded.
"I'm happy for you you right now." She gave a slight chuckle.
He wanted to kiss her cheek, but decided not to. She's a bloody brilliant girl, and I really like her. I hope everyone will try and befriend her easily. He released her hand and the two started to eat the very deliciously made Italian pasta that the two Vargas boys made. "This is really good!" Helen stated. "I'd say this is the best pasta that I've ever ate." The twins were pleased with themselves.
Ooooooooooooooooooooo
The party had continued even though that everyone was finished with there pasta. The pasta party was only half over, but no one had left. Everyone was off in there cliques, but every so often someone would try to snatch Helen away from someone else, the someone else being England. America was trying to talk to her as well, but didn't know how; he also hated the fact that she was always going back to England to talk. He saw there hands touch once and got overly mad (mostly jealous) and left the room.
"What the hell am I doing?" Alfred says to himself as he paces outside. "I'm the hero, and the hero always gets the girl, but...why am I too nervous to talk to her?"
"Something wrong, Al?" He turns around to the familiar voice and instantly pales. "Are you okay?"
Helen was standing in front of him and he had no idea what to do. Think, Al, think! He chuckled. "I'm fine; just needed to get some air."
She nodded. "I know what you mean." She walked over to his side and shyly smiled. "I'm not use to being the main person to try and talk to, so...I got over whelmed and just needed to get out for a while." He nodded and turned to glance at the other houses across the street, occupying himself. "Are you sure nothing's wrong?" Helen asks. "I saw your face turn red before you left the room. Are you sick?"
"I told you I'm fi-" She walked in front of him and turned to face him, placing her hand to his forehead.
He was blushing, but she thought it was something else. "You don't seem to have a fever, but your face is red again."
He turned away again. "I told you I'm fine."
She didn't know what was going on, but she knew something was up. I'd like to know if something is wrong, but I'm not going to pry. Sighing, she turns to walk into the house and instantly feels dizzy. Wow, there girly. What's going on? She blinked a couple of times but still felt dizzy and felt her knees buckle. Alfred had turned in time to see her wobbling and caught her in time, but she was already passed out when he picked her up bringer her back into the house.
"Guys, could you, uh, make room for Helen?" Alfred stood in front of Romano, Feli, Ludwig, and Antonio and once they saw there knew friend in his arms, they got worried.
"What happened?" Feli asked as Al put her on the couch.
"I don't know."
"You better have not made her sad, or hurt her, git."
"Why would I do that?" America glared at the Brit. "I care for her too you know. I'm not an ass hole." Arthur blinked and decided to stare at the sleeping beauty.
Most of the countries, mostly the girls and the ones who knew Helen well enough, stopped talking and went over to her side, asking what was going on. They themselves were worrying over a mere human, but little did they know that Helen wasn't going to be just a "mere human" anymore. The biggest thing that happened as they waited for her to wake up, was her hair changing color and her close looked more Earthly than ever.
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Once Helen fainted, she was surrounded with white instead of black. She remembered walking back to the house then feeling dizzy and didn't really understand what was going on. "Helen." She turns her head in the direction of the voice. She saw what most people would be too shocked to see.
A dark skinned woman calm down from the air and her attire looked more like an Indian outfit; it fit the woman perfectly since she's a person connected to Earth. "Who...?"
The woman smiled and took the younger girls hand. "I'm Mother Earth." Helen's eyes went wide. "This is not what I really look like, but it's what I'm making myself appear to you."
She nodded understanding what she meant. "There's now true form of Mother Earth; she's everything around everyone." The woman smiled and moved her hand through Helen's hair. "Why am I in the presence of Mother Earth?"
"Because I have been having a great deal of looking over you." The girl tilted her head. "Have you wondered why you met the countries?" Helen shook her head. "Well I'll tell you this: It was and act of God. He wanted you to meet them. He also wanted you to gain a title."
"What title?" Mother Earth smiled brightly and kissed Helen's head making her hair turn pink with green ends. She also kissed her eyelids making her brown eyes turn green like the grassy plains found in the country.
"The title of 'Mother Earth'." Helen was astounded to the point of being paralyzed with shock. "I want you to be my personified representative at the meetings with the countries."
Helen nodded, but panicked. "I'm not good at meetings, though." The woman sighed as she fiddled with the new hair her daughter possessed.
"You don't need to be included at the meetings; you can just overlook them." The new representative nodded. "I've changed your hair and eyes to let others know that you are the living human immortal that's my daughter. You look like a lovely flower." Helen blushed and instantly wanted to know what she looked like. "I need to go now, but don't fret; we'll be connected through the earth and through the other elements."
"Does that mean I have full control of the elements." Her new mother nodded and she smiled. "This life is getting more interesting."
Mother Earth said her "adieu" and Helen woke up, seeing the many worried faces in the room. "Helen!" Alfred was so relieved and happy to see the girl awake, but still so shocked at the sudden change in her appearance. "What happened?"
The girl merely smiled and sat up. "I met Mother Earth."
"Really?" England asks really intrigued. "What did you two talk about?"
She shrugged. "That I'm not a normal human anymore." All the countries were confused. "I'm now the living human personification for Mother Earth."
Everyone was shocked, but smiled and congratulated her. "I guess this means you're truly part of the countries now." England came over to her and kissed her forehead making an obviously jealous American upset. "Welcome to the life of living as an immortal country."
"You mean planet." Helen stated as she blushed.
They chuckled as Hungary came over. "Looks like this party took a whole new turn." She hugged her new life long friend. "Welcome to our world."
"Thanks."
The party continued with the new sudden fact making everyone talk and have a rather interesting meeting in the dining room. Life wasn't going to be the same, and not just for Helen; for the countries as well. What would there lives be like though? That's a different story that doesn't contain a pasta party, but deals with another representative going through the many pains in life as the Earth's new personification.
Note: Yeah, i'm ending this because it's not a party anymore and i'm sort of out of ideas, or i have ideas for a new story but i'm not sure yet. I'd just like to say that i neglected to say that Helen's my OC and i bet that most people figured that out already. That and i'm going to warn you that you i probably will use her name again; she'll be a bit different but a bit the same. I hope you don't mind and if you do say something please.
Thanks for reading!
