"Ve~ come on Germany!" Italy whined as he sat outside the German's bedroom door.
"I'm coming, I'm coming." Germany shouted from inside his locked room as he tucked his cat ears into his favorite military-issued cap. He pulled it tight on his head; to make sure it didn't fly off if it happened to be windy outside.
He unlocked the door to his room and opened it. The Italian bounced up from where he was seated on the floor.
"Ve~ Yay! Let's go!" He cheered, taking the taller German by the wrist and practically dragging him down the stairs and out the door.
"Yo, West! Took you long enough!" Prussia said when the two came into the living room.
"Sorry, I had a little trouble with my tail. I'm not a contortionist, you know." Germany sighed when he was able to wrench his wrist from the Italian's surprisingly strong grip.
"Well if you needed help you could have just asked West." Germany nodded.
"I'll keep that in mind."
"Ve~ Germany! Come on! If we wait any longer it'll be siesta time and we can't go out after siesta time! Ve~ Hurry up!" Italy pushed. Germany groaned.
"Alright, alright, I'm coming." Italy cheered, taking his wrist and dragging him out the door. Prussia ran to try and catch up to the pair, Japan followed calmly after them.
It didn't take long for the four to reach the park that was located near the German's house.
"Ita-" Germany stopped himself from calling the Italian by his country name. "Feliciano! Please let me go! We're here!" He snapped, trying to stop. Italy stopped by the picket fence that boxed off the main street from the curb. Italy released his wrist. Germany began rubbing it.
"Ve~ sorry Germ- I mean Ludwig! Well, come on! We're here now! Let's play!" Italy said enthusiastically, waving his arms around in excitement. Germany sighed.
"I'm too old for playing, Feli. I'll simply sit down and watch you. Oh and please don't go into the creek, I don't want you to get bitten by a water snake." Germany said, sitting at one of the wooden picnic tables.
He winced slightly when he sat on his concealed tail wrong. He adjusted so that it was not as uncomfortable. Italy drooped.
"Ve~, but Ludwig! Please! It's so nice out!" The small Italian begged, pulling on one of his German companion's muscular arms. Germany kept planted to his spot.
"Go play if you want to play, Feli. I'm staying here."
"Yo, West!" Prussia ran up, stopping in front of the two. "Don't. Run. So. Fast." Prussia said between pants
"Ve~ Gilbert, will you come play with me?" Prussia scoffed.
"Me? Play? Sorry Feli, but I'm way too awesome to be playing like I'm five." The albino said, sitting opposite from his brother. The brunette pouted, reluctantly sitting down next to Germany.
"Ve~ You two are no fun." He said obviously in a huff.
"We know." The two men said in sync. Just then a little yellow bird flew and sat on Prussia's head.
"Um, bruder, there's a bird on your head." Germany said slowly, pointing to the silverette's head. Prussia's eyes lit up as he patted the top of his head gently. The bird cheeped and pecked at his hand when it came too close.
"It's alright bud, just get on my hand." He said to the bird. The bird cheeped once more before hopping on the hand. Prussia brought his hand down, looking at the little yellow puff ball resting on it as he lowered it to the table. He grinned.
"Hi little guy, aren't you cute? Eh?" Prussia said petting the top of the bird's head. The bird responded happily.
"You look my awesome Gilbird that flew away last week. Say, would you like to be my equally as awesome new Gilbird?" He asked. The little bird cheeped and flapped its tiny wings in agreement. Prussia placed the bird on his head.
"That's unsanitary." Germany mumbled, resting his head on his hand as he watched his older brother play with his newly proclaimed pet. He felt something hit his leg. Germany looked down to see a red rubber ball by his feet. Turning around he saw a small boy and girl run towards him.
"Excuse me, mister. Could we have our ball back?" The little girl asked.
"Of course. What's your name sweetie?" Germany asked, picking up the ball and handing it to the girl. She had long brown hair and bright blue eyes. The boy had sandy blonde hair and green/turquoise eyes.
"I'm Claudia. This is my big brother Isaac." She said, gesturing to the boy next to her.
"Hi." He said, shyly twisting his foot in the dirt.
"What's you name Mister?" Claudia asked. Germany smiled.
"My name is Ludwig and this is my friend Feliciano." He gestured to the Italian next to him. "And believe it or not, I have a big brother too." He said. Claudia's eyes lit up and she gasped.
"Really?" Germany nodded.
"He's sitting across from me." He said.
"Can I see him?" She asked. Germany chuckled.
"Sure." He said as he lifted her up onto the bench. She watched the silverette as he played with his bird.
"Is that him?" She asked, looking up to the blonde and pointing to Prussia. He nodded.
"Mhmm, his name is Gilbert. He's three years older than me." Prussia looked to Germany at the sound of his name. Claudia waved happily. Prussia smiled and gave her a small wave in return. Germany put her back down.
"Thank you for getting my ball and introducing me to your big brother Mr. Ludwig. My brother and I are going to play a game. Do you want to go play with us?"
"No. But thank you for asking." Germany replied.
Italy, who had been watching, jumped into the conversation.
"Ve~ What are you two going to play?" The brunette asked.
"Four square. But we need two other people to play." She said. Italy smiled.
"Ve~ Can I play too?" Claudia nodded.
"Of course! Anyone is welcome to play!" Italy cheered.
"Yay, come on Ludwig! Let's go play!" Germany shook his head.
"I told you Feli, I'm staying here." Italy pouted.
"Claudia! Isaac! What are you two doing, bothering these nice men? It's time to go home." A young woman shouted as she walked over to where the children were. They whined.
"Aw man."
"But mom-"
"No buts. Come on you two. I have to get dinner started." She looked over to the three. "I'm so sorry if these two bothered you. I thought I taught them better than to talk to strangers." Germany waved it off.
"It's fine. They weren't bothering us at all. Right Feli?" Italy nodded.
"Mhmm. It was fun to talk to them." The woman smiled and extended her hand.
"I'm Patricia, Isaac and Claudia's mother." Germany shook it as well as Italy.
"I'm Ludwig."
"My name's Feliciano. Ve~ Patricia is a very pretty name. Perfect for a pretty girl such as yourself." The Italian complemented.
"Thank you. Alright children, time to go." She said, taking Isaac's and Claudia's hand, leading them to the line of cars parked by the curb of the road. Claudia turned around and began waving.
"Bye Mr. Ludwig! Bye Mr. Feliciano! And bye Mr. Gilbert! It was nice to meet you!" She shouted they waved back in reply.
"Ve~ Little kids are so cute~" Italy said.
"They sure are now let's get going." Germany said as he got up.
"Eh? But we just got here!"
"No, Feli we've been here for about thirty minutes. At this point you're missing your siesta." Italy's became frantic.
"My siesta! Awaaaaaaaaaah~!" Italy cried as he raced back to the house. Germany sighed.
"I knew that was going to happen." Germany said face palming as he watched the brunette try to dodge traffic. Prussia got up and began to walk in the direction of the house. Germany followed.
-Meanwhile-
Romano cackled manically.
"Oh, the bastard is going to be in for it now." He said, smiling evilly. He had spent the night getting contact information for every single country in the world. Literally.
First up was North America, he was going to save Europe for later. He looked at the list. The country at the top was America. The most loud mouthed, obnoxious country in the UN and on the continent. His smirk grew into a twisted smile.
This was going to be fun.
