A/N:

And here is the forth chapter, also the second to last chapter perhaps.. I'm very sorry I can't expand it more than I have originally have wanted it to be. I wanted at least ten chapters for this story but apparently my brain doesn't want that to happen ... so yeah.

Enjoy~!

~o~o~o~

The Prussian was bewildered by his brothers sudden actions, cocking his head to the side as he stared at Ludwig in perplexed. " Huh? ..vas is it Vest?".

Ludwig fiddled a bit with his thumbs. Clearly he was uneasy about something, that something the albino was very curious about figuring out. And quick, the pale man wasn't much of a patient person to begin with so there is a less likely chance that he would be now. The German darted his eyes back and forth as though he would able to find a solution to his problem by looking at his surroundings. Coming up short in less than a minute, he took a deep breath than parted his mouth to speak.

"Can ve go somevhere more private,bruder?". The taller male didn't want anyone eavesdropping in their conversation, even more so that it was something pretty personal for Ludwig.

Gilbert still had the look of confusion written across his face as he listened to his brother, a brow arching."Uhh- ...I guess ve could. Vhere do jou have in mind?".

The youngest of the two brothers contemplated, maybe he should wait until tomorrow to tell the albino. Considering he was the one hosting this little get together. What if something more than out of the ordinary happened and he wasn't there. So many questions and reasons why not to were pouring into his mind like a heavy waterfall. However, if he didn't go onward with his action he might not have to courage to do it later. So many dilemmas so little time to think them over.

He rubbed the back of his neck, shaking his head side to side."Nevermind ...it's nozhing important".

"Huh? ...vait". It took the Prussian sometime to comprehend what just occurred. Once it settled well in his mind did a childish pout appear on his lips."Vas ...nein jour telling me one vay or another". His curiosity was pecked, there was no way in hell was he going to allow his brother to simply brush it off.

Ludwig had the look of someone that was about to challenge authority, something rare for the German."Und I say ... I don't have to tell jou bruder".

That surprised the albino to the fullest extent, staring wide eyed at his little brother with his mouth slightly a gap. He shook his head to snap out of his trance like state. Ivory brows knitted together in a irked fashion."Jou vill listen to jour alteren bruder, Vest".

"Like I said before, East ... I don't have to tell jou anyzhing. It's nozhing ...". He countered back with such a rebellious tone of voice.

He was taken back from his brother's bluntness of a remark, his anger mildly vanishing for a split second before releasing a low growl."Fine .. be like zat. Not like I care". Gilbert scoffed, finishing the remainder of his drink before tossing the can onto the floor on purpose. If there was one thing he knew the German hated more than anything it was the disrespectful act of littering, and in front of him intentionally.

The tall German restrained from giving his elder brother the satisfaction of angering him so easily. Not to mention being stubborn about it as he crossed his arms over his chest. Staring intensely at the albino with such a death icily glare."Pick zat up, bruder".

"Nein...". Gilbert quickly retorted.

Taking a deep discreet breath in attempt to stay calm."Bruder..".

"I said nein! ... am nicht going to pick it up,Vest". The Prussian scowled."Not until jou tell mich vas I vant...".

"Am not going to tell jou... ". Ludwig enforced his previous statement. Why couldn't his brother just let it go.

Another scoff came from the albino's lips."Tch- .. zhen am nicht going to pick it up".

"East!...".

"Nein! ..".

"East! I'm nicht going to ask jou again".

"Nein! am nicht going to do it!".

"Gilbert... pick it up".

"I said nein! ... jou can't make me,Vest".

The taller male brought a hand, rubbing his temples as this argument continued on. Seemingly having no end nor a neutral ground for the both German brothers to agree on. Assuming the other wasn't going to listen to reason, he bended at his waist. Picking up the can that the pair had be bickering about for the past minute or so. Gingerly tossing the empty beverage into it's proper place, a recycling bin. Murmuring under his breath something along the lines of how immature his elder brother can be at times, and also how much of a burden he could hear the German loud and crystal clear, frowning.

"If am such a pest, bruder. Vhy don't jou just put me out of mein misery". He bitterly commented then added on."No one seems to care about me... so it vouldn't matter if I just died". After saying those words was the albino aware of what had spilled from his lips by impulse.

Ludwig glanced at this brother with a look of disbelief."...don't say zhings like zat".

"Vhy ze hell shouldn't I? huuh? ... no one gives a single damn! Not even jou". The Prussian sneered."Jou cared more about a stupid can zhen vas I had to say!".

The German placed his hands unexpectedly on his brothers shoulders, ocean blue orbs staring squarely at blood red ones."Nein ...I don't. I could never stop caring about jou bruder... never". His words spoke of honesty as he kept his string gaze no where else but at the elder man.

Gilbert peered up at the other male, he was speechless of what to say at that exact moment. Letting his mind to catch up to what was happening before he even uttered a syllable."D-Do ...jou mean zat?". He questioned, lacking in obvious reasoning.

A nod." Ja... I mean it, Gilbert". Ludwig sported a soft warm expression, a huge difference from the usual stern emotionless mask that the blonde has.

Time itself apparently slowed down as the two brothers stood in silence, neither dared to speak up in fear that this rare moment may be ruined by that alone. But more so that the were clueless in what to even say. Both simply giving attention solely on each other as they blocked the background music and voices of those familiar to the two. Apparently no one had took note of the two Germans in the secluded corner. Gilbert gazed from the corner of his eyes at the strong big hands that belonged to his younger took grasp of his shoulders, thoughts pouring into his mind in an endless cycle as one immediately replaces the last as he tried to make sense of what was occurring between him and Ludwig.

Two and two made a final connection as Gilbert placed one of his hands above his brothers."...Are jou mein secret admirer,Vest? ".

Ludwig looked stunned, adverting his eyes to the side to look at a newly interesting floor that settled just next to the two brothers."I don't know vas jour talking about, bruder".

"Tch- ... ze vay jour acting says differently, Ludwig... bruder. Tell me". With his other hand, he cupped his brothers chin. Gently forcing the other to look directly at him and only him."Are jou ...or are jou not".

Puzzled for a few seconds, the younger brother looked at the eldest. Rather forcibly but he gave in without any struggling against the restrictions. Taking a deep breath in then out he spoke out in a mellow voice, fluttering his eyes closed.

"Jour hair reminds me of early vinter snowflakes as zhey float gently down from ze sky. As for jour eyes a field of blooming spring roses. Jour lips are like two fresh cherries. Vhich I imagine zhem to be vho can't forget jour awesomeness zat over passes ze length of ze universe". He recited by heart, slowly prying his eyes open as he waited for a reaction.

It was Gilbert's turn to be shocked, the other had said each word exactly as it was written in the first few sentences of the letter that was sent to him the day before. The only ones that perhaps knew other than himself what that letter contained was Francis, Spain, and maybe the Russian bastard since he was the one he gave it to him in the first place. Blinking, he brings his attention back onto the taller male with a loop-sided grin.

"Jour such a hopeless romantic,Vest". A soft chuckle, he pulled the rigid German into a warm embrace. Encircling his arms around his neck as he leaned up slightly on his tippy toes to plant a sweet peck on his younger brother's lips."Even so- ... Ich liebe dich".

"I-Ich liebe d-dich auch...". Ludwig smiled, a rosy color gracing his cheeks as sapphire eyes glimpsed down with such warmth in them. His own arms snaked down, coming around the eldest mid-waist section and keeping them there as he returned the hug.

This turned out positively better than the German had originally anticipated to have happened, his mind was filled with doubts that the other may not even return his love. Even more so shun him afterwards because of the more than brotherly love he held for the pale man. The kiss was more than reassuring that the other did hold similar feelings that he did, and hearing those words. It brought his heart to skip a beat in the most wondrous way. Gilbert snickered softly, recalling the moment when Francis had said it may have been Ludwig. And he for once was correct about it, the Prussian was just waited to see if the Frenchman would pop out of nowhere and say 'I told you so' to him. He wouldn't think any less of the man if he did, maybe get a little pissed.

The albino suddenly remembered another event that taken place."...so... vhy did jou sent Russia of all people to give me zat letter?".

"..." Ludwig gazed down at the other man, taking a sigh that was tainted with uneasiness."I vas in ze middle of vritting it vhen he came by for business matters... zhen it just escalated vith him vanting to give jou ze letter".

He should have known. Really, it was something the bastard would do trying to play as the cupid was a bit laughable for the Prussian."Makes sense ... ". Gilbert glimpsed at his brother before leaning up to plant another peck."Am guessing zis makes us a couple zhen? ...".

"Only if jou vant us to be, bruder". The German advised after returning the smooch, he would very much like it to be so but didn't want to pressure the pale man.

Gilbert softly chuckled."So considerate~... but. Ja ... I vant us to be". Nodding, he tighten his grasp slightly on the taller male.

That brought a warm smile on Ludwig's lips, gripping on the other just as tightly but also affectionate. Something the German wasn't so accustomed to but he was willing to be for his elder brother.

The two brothers spent the rest of the celebration together with happy attitudes. Francis did come by and said his 'I told you so' to the Prussian. Spain had successfully patched up the issue that erupted between him and Lovino. And Russia, well he was off in a corner watching the two brothers with a jealous smile sporting across his face. Jealous of the love he himself my never obtain in a million years, or so he thinks.

"Yo! Dude ...What's with that look?". A very American voice intruded in the Russian's thought process.

Ivan tugged his precious scarf closer to his face, it was out of habit." It's nothing ...Da. Don't worry,comrade".

The slightly shorter male raised a brow before taking the Russian's arm in his grasp."Alright man.. but come on.. let's dance!". Not even giving the other a minute as he dragged the larger male towards the dance floor and commenced with dancing a bit silly with the Russian.

A/N:

There you have it, it was finally revealed. The next chapter will just be the aftermath of what happened, so if I receive more than two reviews saying that I should type the aftermath then I shall.

Oh- ..and I had originally planned it to be America and not Germany- but I change my mind after I uploaded Convicted Love. In that story there will be plenty of AmerPru to smother you with. Though I haven't been able to updated it like I have with this chapter specifically was the hardest for me to concentrate on, plus I had low creativity so it may also seem rushed.

I was also giggled a bit in the inside while I was typing it all out. Especially the part about the can, the two can be such dorks in my mind.
