Prompt: Japan misses America and cuddles with a stuffed animal, and then when America comes back, he gets (jokingly) jealous.


Japan hugged the giant alpaca plush America had given him tightly as he laid on the couch, waiting for America to come back from his business trip. It had been a boring and lonely week without America, and texting, calling, and even Skype calling him wasn't enough for Japan. The only thing he could think about was how America was doing. He tried to draw to take his mind off of America, but when sketches of America started to gather on the paper, he stopped.

He even tried to cook without thinking of America, but when he looked down, he saw the familiar hamburger patty sizzling in the pan. It was obvious at this point: He was yearning for America's company. He tried talking to England, and Germany and Italy about how much he missed America, but the responses would always be the same.

"He'll come back."

"Just be patient, Japan."

No.

It was impossible for him to be patient at this point.

He needed to see America.

He wanted to be in his arms again, hear that familiar chipper voice again, and most of all:

He wanted to see his smile again.

He tried turning on the television to something interesting. It worked at first, but his thoughts would slowly stray over to America. And he never noticed it before, but it seemed… darker, without America's presence in the house. Pochi and Tama seemed to share Japan's thoughts as well. They were less energetic without America to play with them. Even though they didn't seem to agree with what America called "playing," it was still fun, and it kept their hearts racing.

Japan stared out at the window, waiting, just waiting for even a small sign of America. Pochi and Tama were laying in a heap at the door, seemingly consoling each other while listening for that familiar click of the door being unlocked. Japan wondered if this was how America felt when he was gone for his own business trips. He wondered what America did while he was out of the house for so long.

Japan struggled to keep his eyes open and alert. He hadn't gotten much sleep ever since America left. Everything seemed to blur into one, and he was getting very dizzy. Suddenly, he heard America's voice.

"It's okay, Japan. Go to sleep. I'll be here when you wake up."

Yes. Maybe he should go to sleep… He wouldn't be long…


Japan hurriedly sat up on the couch. What time was it? How long had he been asleep?

Shit, he shouldn't have gone to sleep. He only listened because he missed the sound of America's voice. He was angry at himself for being so weak and stupid.

He realized he was still holding onto the alpaca plush that America had given him, and he grew sad again. He checked the time on his phone. 2:32 PM. He'd only been asleep for ten minutes. He hugged the plushie again, wishing that it was America, who would wrap his arms around him and squeal about how cute he was. He smiled a bit at the thought. As much as he hated it when America called him cute, it did feel a bit nice to have someone think of him as endearing.

Then he heard it. The familiar clicking sound. America was here. Pochi and Tama were barking and meowing nonstop. He bolted up from the couch and ran to the door. When the door opened, America emerged with the same goofy smile he usually wore. Japan threw himself at America and gave him a tight hug, pressing his face into America's chest.

"Woah, Japan! I missed you, too!" America laughed, hugging the smaller man back with equal force.

"Aw, Pocky, Sam, I didn't forget about you two, either!" America slightly leaned down to allow the pets to paw at his hands. Japan let go of America and pulled his head down to give him a peck on the lips.

"I couldn't stop thinking about you, Japan. You were in my head all week!" America exclaimed, patting Japan's head.

"As were you~" Japan replied, smiling widely.

"Aw, you wore your animal hoodie just for me~? That's so cute~!" America squealed.

Japan had been wearing his black cat hoodie all week, but luckily, he hadn't dirtied it yet. America picked up Japan, and noticed that he was holding the alpaca plush he had bought for him.

"You've been holding onto this all week?" America asked, pointing at the plush. Japan nodded.

"It reminded me of you, so I had cuddled with it," Japan responded, feeling shy.

"Japan…" America's face became blank, and Japan was unable to read his eyes. He worried if he had upset America in some way.

"Only I can cuddle with you!" America exclaimed with a jokingly jealous look. Japan giggled, and America took the plush away from him and set it on the couch.

"Let's go cuddle!" America flew up the stairs, causing the pets to bark and meow at them after they disappeared upstairs. They ran into the bedroom and jumped onto the bed smiling and laughing happily together.

"Haha, I missed cuddling with you, Japan~" America laughed, rubbing their noses together.

"Mm… So did I~" Japan murmured.

"I don't ever want to see you cuddling with that alpaca ever again, Japan!" America exclaimed, his joking tone indicating that he wasn't seriously jealous, just playfully jealous. Japan muffled his soft laughing by covering his mouth with his hand.

"What's so funny, Japan~?" America teased, crawling over Japan and tickling his stomach.

"Aha! No-Nothing, America-sa-haha!" Japan cried, unable to breathe.

Ah, how Japan had missed moments like this. Though he knew well that they would have to separate from each other, he also knew that they would always come back together and become one once again.

They would never be able to be fully torn apart if their love could hold them together.
