Canarican: Okay I thought it was about time you guys got a

happyish chapter instead of a feels flood ^^ So here you go!

Gilbert sighed as he walked into the plane, a yawn leaving his lips as he took his seat, leaning back against the wall with a long sigh as he pulled a small red shirt from his bag. He smiled and rubbed the gentle fabric softly, putting it up to his face and inhaling the sweet aroma of Matthew. The scent was almost a soft lavender smell but with a hint of sweetness. He sighed softly and held the shirt in his lap

"I miss you Birdie~" He cooed to himself, holding the shirt to his face and leaning on it a little

"Is that your girlfriend's?" he heard a small voice ask. Gilbert looked up with a small smile

"Nein it's my partners…" he said softly, rubbing the soft and sweet smelling fabric. The small woman whose voice he had heard sat down beside him

"Hmhm so is your partner just another name for your lover?" She asked, smiling a little as she looked to him. Gilbert smiled nervously at the small girl

"I-I um.."

"I don't mind if your lover is a guy. I understand hmhm I'm actually on my way home to see my girlfriend Maria~" She said, smiling a little with her sparkling violet eyes, her soft blonde hair pulled back into pigtails with little red ribbons, she was a cute little thing

"Ja~ I'm on my way back to Germany. I'm actually not allowed to see my Matthew." he said, sighing softly. The girl looked sad and shocked

"Aww why not?" She asked. Gilbert sighed

"Well...We're kind of on different sides of a little feud that's going on right now. My brother hates his guts and his brother wants to murder me….It's a little complicated…" He said sadly. She put a small hand on his shoulder

"Oh I'm so sorry. I couldn't imagine what it would be like if I couldn't see Maria…So how did you get to see him today?" She asked curiously. Gilbert smiled

"Can I know your name first perhaps?" He asked, smiling a bit

"Hmhm I'm Madeline~" She cooed, smiling a little bit. Gilbert offered her his hand

"Gilbert~" He said softly, shaking her hand with a little smile.

~Time Lapse~

Gilbert smiled as he and Madeline got off of the plane together, still laughing and talking together. Suddenly Gilbert heard a loud German voice in the distance
"Maaaad Dieeeeee~" Suddenly Madeline was tackle hugged by a taller girl with silver grey hair who also kissed her passionately. Gilbert chuckled softly and smiled as the other girl held Madeline close, nuzzling her lovingly
"Hi Ria~…" Madeline murmured shyly, kissing her nose.

Maria smiled and kissed her gently

"Who's this guy~?" she asked, pulling away and just holding her hand

"Oh this is Gilbert. We were sitting together on the plane. He was coming home from seeing his boyfriend~" She cooed sweetly, kissing the albino girl's cheek gently. Maria smirked
"Nice to meet ya Gilbert~" She cooed, holding Maddie protectively with a smirk. Gilbert smirked

"Nice to meet you too~" he said, shaking the taller girl's hand

"Well it was nice to meet both of you but I should get going~ My brother doesn't know I'm gone and I need to be getting home ~" he said, smiling to both of them

"Thank you for keeping me company on the plane Maddie." he cooed. Maddie smiled happily
"Your welcome Gilbert. It was nice talking to you. I hope you and Matthew get to be together soon~" she cooed sweetly, smiling as she and Maria walked away, hand in hand, their hands swinging as they walked together. Gilbert smiled and watched them walk away. He envied how happy they were, wishing he and Matthew could be together like that. He sighed softly and got his bag, putting it on his back and walking out of the airport and sighing softly, walking to austria's home. Which wasn't far from the airport thankfully.

~Time lapse~

Gilbert sighed as he went into Austria's home, sighing softly

"I'm back." He called, being greeted in the front room by Eliza with a small smile on her face as he plopped down on the couch

"Hi Gilbert~" She cooed

"Did you get to see him~?" She asked, making Gilbert smile wide.

"Ja~ I did~ We got to talk and...other things. I gave him my shirt and a little plush Gilbird...he cried when I left but he was happy to have me for a little while…" He said softly, pulling Matthew's red shirt from his bag

"I got this~" He cooed, holding the red shirt close to his chest. Eliza smiled and sat down beside him
"I'm glad you got to at least go for a little while. There's news that the war is going to end soon so maybe you'll get to see him more. Possibly even move in with him~" she cooed, petting his hair comfortingly. Gilbert sighed, pressing the shirt to his face

"Gott I hope so…." he muttered,leaning into her hand a little and thinking about Matthew and leaned back on the couch, smiling as he thought about Matthew's soft and gentle hands, picturing them running through his soft silvery hair and laying on his bare chest, his head spinning as the sweet scent of the shirt, combined with the gentle stroking of his hair by Eliza making him sink into an actually restful sleep for the first time in a whole month that he'd been without Matthew that hadn't been induced by alcohol.

~Pov Change~

Matthew sighed as he lay back on his bed, his sheets still smelling like the sweet Albino whose shirt he was clutching now and the little bird sitting beside him on the bed. He smiled sweetly as he felt the gentle fabric of the shirt brushing against his skin, his face holding an actually sincere smile on his face for the first time in a month as he lay in his bed, staring up at the ceiling. It wasn't really late but Matthew was just tired from the encounter with Alfred earlier. He heard a knock on the door and a ring of the door bell with a sigh, getting up and going downstairs. He opened the door and smiled, glad it was his papa and not Alfred

"Bonjour papa~" He cooed sweetly, hugging his father gently. Francis smiled

"Bonjour Matthieu~ May I come in~?" He asked, smiling as he noticed that Matthew seemed to actually be happy for the first time since he'd been taken away from Gilbert

"Oui~ Of course Papa~" He said, letting his papa in and , closing the front door, wobbling with him into the living room and sitting on the couch criss cross. Francis sighed softly and sat by Matthew's side, making him turn to him, taking his hands and looking right into his eyes

"Alfred told me." He said, having noticed his limp

"So Gilbert came over hmm~? Did you two enjoy yourselves~?" He asked, stroking Matthew's cheek, making him blush immensely as his papa was so direct with him

"P-Please don't be mad…" He muttered.

"Matthieu I'm not mad~" He cooed, kissing his cheek

"I'm glad you got to see him. I'm glad you two are together~ You're so sweet together~" He cooed, petting his hair and smiling to him. Matthew smiled a little bit

"R-Really papa~?" He asked, smiling happily and leaning into his touch as his papa wiped away his few tears that had spilled from his eyes. Francis nodded and smiled softly

"Oui really mon petite Matthieu~" He cooed, petting his hair

"And I'm going to help you~ We can contact Gilbert and you two can be together again. The war will be ending soon anyways and he can hide here until then~" He said, smiling and kissing Matthew's forehead

"R-Really papa~? You can bring Gilbert here~?!" Matthew asked excitedly

"And he can stay here~?" He asked. Francis nodded in approval

"Oui. I'll send for him as soon as I get a chance. I promise you Alfred won't hurt him and I will protect you both~" He cooed, kissing his cheek. Matthew wrapped his arms around Francis' neck

"Merci papa~ Merci~" He cooed, hugging him happily
