Gilbert breathed out a sigh. Just take it easy, Gil, he told himself. Wait a minute… If I did that with Ivan, then, does that make me gay? But then, what about Hungary? Do I still love her? Or, do I love that crazy, commie, freak, scary-as-shit, nice, great-kissing, hot-as-fuck, WHAT THE HELL! Gilbert mentally kicked himself. Why and /how/ did I wonder to that? That's it, I must be crazy.

Gilbert shook his head to shakes away the feelings and thoughts. He couldn't believe it... He was actually falling in love with Ivan. I just gotta know... How he truely feels about me.

Ivan stared at the pile of paperwork in front of himself and sighed. He turned his chair around and looked out into the white snow slowly falling from the sky, dusting everything with a brilliant white. This sight made him think of the milky white skin of Prussia. "Oh, Pru~"

He stood from his chair as he took sight of something walking through the snow towards his house. The thing blended in with it's surroundings. It can't be. Ivan thought. He ran out of his office and down the stairs. Just as expected, their was a knock at his front door. He answered it.

"Stop looking at me like that, asshole."

Russia and Prussia sat on the large sofa in Russia's living room.

"So, snowbunny~ What brings you to my house?"

"First off, do not call me snowbunny."

"Awww." Ivan pouted at the Prussian's orders, "But you are so cute and look like one."

Gilbert sighed, "Ja, well I'm not a bunny and I am not "cute" I am awesome."

"Oh Gil~"

Prussia narrowed his eyes, "Anyway, to get back on subject. I came here to ask you something."

Russia nodded, "Go ahead."

"...W-why did you kiss me?" A blush fell across Gilbert's pale cheeks.

"Oh..." Ivan chewed on his cheek, "W-well... It's what you do to someone you love, d-da?"

Prussia looked at him confused, "Yes... with someone you love. But, you don't love me."

"Oh how very wrong you are snowbu- ahem Prussia."

"So, you do love me?"

"Of course I do."

Gilbert looked at the ground, "Love, huh?"

There was an awkward pause before Prussia spoke again, "I-I'm not sure I can return the feelings, Russia."

Russia frowned, "I see."

"B-but maybe..." Prussia was trying to think of the right words, "Maybe if you... keep trying... these feelings... I mean if you truely love me... I want you to... prove it. Ja, that's it. Prove it to me. You've captured my attention so you have to be at least a little bit worthy of my awesomeness. Something in me is telling me to have faith in you, so I will listen to it."

"So... Does this mean we are dating?"

"Nein, not exactly... More like... love interests. Which means, I want you to pay all your attention to me, got that?"

"Da."

"You have to only want me! No more flirting with anyone but me! ONLY ME!"

"Calm down, Gilbert. You act as if I'm the one who stares at Hungary all day."

"Oh, shut up, bastard."

"Hmm? Just bastard?"

Gilbert blushed, "W-well we're love intrests now... so I'll try not to call you too many names... But don't think that means you can continue to piss me off either."

Ivan laughed, "Got it."


It had been a month since this little compromise of theirs was started and it continued to go on. Gilbert recieved several gifts and pick up lines from Ivan. And in turn, Ivan only got called a bastard.


Gilbert sighed, Ivan had told him to meet him in the hallway after the world meeting, but he was incredibly late in arriving. Just as Prussia was about to leave, Russia showed up, walking down the hallway in a calm and collected way of his. It almost made Prussia jealous, the way Russia was able to look calm and wear a smile, even in the worst of situations.

"'Bout time you showed up," Gilbert said.

"Oh, snowbunny." (It seemed as though Russia couldn't break this habit, and to be honest, Prussia liked his nickname, no matter ho much he protested.)

Prussia rolled his eyes, "Just shut up already."

Russia pouted, "Fine~"

"So why did you want me to wait for you?"

"We are going on a date!"

"...A date?"

"W-well, we haven't really... been on one yet, so I thought..."

"I'm gonna stop you right there."

"W-what?"

"You don't need to convince me any more." Prussia stared straight into Russia's violet eyes, "I'll go."

Both Ivan and Gilbert blushed at this sentence. It was unexpected coming from Gilbert to say something like that.

Russia took ahold of Prussia's hand and led him to his car. "S-so where is this date going to take place." Prussia asked.

"Hmmm..."

"You don't have a place in mind, do you?"

"Uh... Wait! I know where we are going to go, da!"

"So, where then?"

"I cannot tell you, it is a surprise."

"Oh, god, you're not gonna take me to some secluded place and kill me are you?"

Russia looked over at Prussia with a puzzled expression, "Nyet, why would you say such things?"

"I-" Prussia didn't know what to say, he hadn't expected Russia to react like that to the (of course kidding) question he asked. What he expected was for Russia to snap at him and hit him. Hmm... West always tells me such bad things about Russia, so does everybody else. I guess they're just rumors. "I don't know." He finally said and shrugged his shoulders.

Russia's face still looked confused, "O.k..."

"...Let's just go."


Russia pulled his car into a small dirt road. Nobody else was there but them. They got out of the car and Prussia followed as Russia walked over to the edge of the large hill they were on. Ivan sat down and patted the spot next to himself. "Come, sit here."

Prussia nodded and sat next to him, he looked over the hill into the valley ahead of them. It was beautiful, flowers bloomed everywhere, and the deep grassy green color of the grass was almost intoxicating. The sun was setting for the day, and cast a beautiful orange glow over everything.

"Wow... It's so beautiful."

Russia looked over at Prussia, "Not as beautiful as you."

Prussia turned to look at the other, violet eyes met crimson. They just sat there for a while before locking lips. It was a slow and sweet kiss. They both wanted this, and Prussia's true feelings were no longer secret.

They pulled away.

"Gilbert Beilschmidt, I love you. I love you with all my heart."

"I...I love you too, more than anything."

They smiled together.

Russia spoke, "Will you be mine?"

"...Of course. I would like nothing more."

There lips met again, and they both hoped that this moment would last forever.
