Italy happily skipped into his home happily carrying one grocery bag. It was getting late and he'd been out all day. Putting the things away he hopped over to his couch slumping down relaxed. The meeting had been long, and boring.

Germany had yelled at him again. America had a horrible idea again. China was grumbling the whole time and Japan stayed quiet as Russia smiled loving the chaos. Italy shivered just thinking about the Russian.

France made a pass at Belgium and was scared away by her big brother. And England...he was the worst. Italy remembered he was acting strange...er...

( Yay! Flash back! )

England sat , a hand to his head pinching the top of his nose in annoyance as the chaotic meeting insued. "Hahahaha" America laughed. "So England you think I'm right, right?" he asked annoyingly after everyone, even Japan had declined his 'brilliant idea'.

England began muttering "you know what I bloody think!" he stood angrily catching everyone off guard.

Usually he'd just say that the American was an idiot, and get into a fight with France. But actually he had ignored everyone, even the Frenchman through the entire meeting.

"I think that the whole world should just shut up for five damn minutes and have a nice ,civilized ,meeting" he growled before holding his head again. "Are you alright England-san?" Japan asked worried. "I've just got a bloody migraine is all" he sighed slumping back in his seat. With that. Once more ,disaster resumed.

( End of Flashback owo )

Italy laughed to himself "England's face sure was funny~" he said. As he watched the television his body started to feel the effects of the long day, and he slowly fell asleep peacefully.

Holy rome clenched his hands as he reached for the door knob and slowly opened it. Wow. That was...easy. If his Italy kept the door unlocked all the time he could get hurt! He made sure to lock it behind him when he was inside.

He noticed some glowy box thing with moving pictures. What had the elders told him it was called? A tv? Yeah that was it. Going over he somehow managed to turn it off. And by that I mean he accidentally stepped on the remote. Turning he could barely contain his joy as he saw his little Italy.

Laying there so cutely asleep. He walked over to him and placed a light kiss to the Italians hand. "Italy oh Italy~" he whisper sang happily. He looked at him "Italy...I didn't forget about you...I never will and I don't want to..." he said watching his sleeping face.

"I was so afraid to lose you, I lost myself along the way...I wanted to become the strongest, so I could protect you" he smiled petting the hand. "...I'm glad that you're surrounded by your friend's and family, it makes you smile" he grinned like a lovestruck school girl.

"Your smile...it could save the world ,I swear" he said. Italy turned in his sleep with a smile. "Oh Italy. Oh Italy. My sweet." he sang softly. He stood there a little longer just smiling at Italy.

The Italian had woken up when he had kissed his hand, he usually could sleep through storms, but something warm filled his heart causing him to become consciously aware of it. He hadn't said anything yet wanting to see if this was real or not.

"...A long time ago ,I wanted to tell you that...I love you Italy" he said. When he had found out Italy was in fact, a guy, he didn't care. He would love Italy, to the end! With that Italy pulled him into a loving hug ,to his surprise.

He was sure he would just wake up to nothing if he moved in such away, but he smiled widely when he didn't. Holy Rome tensed before hugging back.

"I love you to Holy Rome" he smiled. Holy Rome looked up at him "I missed you" he said. "Ve~ You have no idea~" Italy chirped. "I've got a lot to tell you!" both said in unison before staring at each other and laughing. The night went on as the two shared stories of the past and present, of things that they usual wouldn't talk about.

That was until 4:00 o'clock. Holy Rome jumped in his place "ow ow ow ow ow!" he exclaimed holding his arm.

"Eh?! what's wrong- are you okay?!" Italy asked. He lifted up his sleeve to reveal the flower bracelet which had clenched around his wrist. It sprung off when he pulled up his sleeve and turned into a portal that looked like the one before, showing a swirling view of the garden.

Holy Rome looked at Italy with a sad look "I have to go now..." he said. Italy frowned but then smiled placing a light kiss on Holy Rome's lips whom in turn kissed back.

"Will I see you again?" Italy asked as he pulled away. "Just call me in your dreams, that is were I'll always be...then maybe one day we'll be together again...but that might be awhile" he laughed. "...I'll miss you" Italy said tearing up. "Hey hey...Italy...when we meet again...I'll be waiting with lots of sweets" he promised.

Italy nodded as he turned and stepped back into the portal, it dissapeared instantly. Italy smiled at the nothingness that the portal was once in.

Holy Rome smiled as he handed the bracelet back to Britannia. "Did you have fun?" she asked. "Yeah...I did, thank you ...have you ever gone back?" he asked. "...No, I'm scared to ,to be honest...and I wouldn't have enough time to see all of my loved one's, but I'm glad you got to see Italy once more" she smiled. He sighed and nodded at her "Thank you" he said walking off.

Welp there's that you guys! I'm sorry if HRE was a OOC it's the first time I've ever wrote a story with him in it. Ah, but I'm making an Extra Chapter- sort of related to the plot, it's kind of explaining the whole black door thing. So stay tuned!
