Disclaimer: I do not own Hetalia, only this story concept. Alright guys, this is the second to last chapter of Fairies. It is a bit fluffy, so I hope you enjoy it and thanks for reading.


My eyes widened as I followed Matthew into the dining room. On the table were plates piled high with all different kinds of food. There was not only the food Alfred had mentioned, but other stuff like French fries, bacon, various fruits, and French bread spread across the table. My stomach growled even more at the sight of it all. Arthur laughed and led me to a chair, pulling it out for me, before seating himself beside me.

"Alright, we should let Alice get her food first, since she is the guest," Arthur said to the other two. Alfred, who had been reaching for a burger, pouted slightly. I laughed and looked around at everything, trying to decide what to get. I still hadn't decided when Lucky popped up out of nowhere and sniffed the mincemeat pie. Arthur and I laughed, getting weird looks from Alfred and Matthew, before I started getting a little bit of everything.

"Sweet, Francis made extra burgers this time," exclaimed Alfred. He started piling the burgers on his plate, eating them almost as fast as he got them. I was really enjoying the mincemeat pie when I felt something tug at my legs. Looking down I saw Lucky, begging for food. He looked a lot like a puppy begging for scraps at the table. I nodded, holding up a finger so he knew to wait, and turned to Arthur.

"Arthur, can you give me a plate really quick?" I asked. He looked puzzled as he handed it to me. "It's for Lucky, he really wants to try some," I explained. He nodded understandingly as I put more food on the extra plate. I put a little bit of everything and set the plate down next to Lucky. I thought I had done it without getting caught, but I was wrong.

"Alice, what are you doing? Why did you put that plate on the floor?" Matthew asked me. He seemed really confused, but I was hesitant to tell him about Lucky. I looked over to Arthur, who had heard Matthew as well. He nodded, meaning for me to explain myself.

"Well, it was for Lucky. Lucky is my pet, my pet dragon," I said, mumbling the last part. Alfred started laughing loudly between burger bites, tears forming in his eyes.

"A dragon, really? How could you possibly believe that? Dragons aren't real, she must be crazy or something," he said between giggles. I deflated into my chair, feeling dejected and hurt. It wasn't like I hadn't heard that kind of stuff before, but it still hurt. It hurt every time someone laughed, or looked at me funny, or called me insane. I had heard it all my life, but I couldn't help the pain that came with it.

"I-I think I should get going. It's getting pretty late and I need to go home. I'll see you at school Arthur," I say to them. I stand up, push my chair in, and rush out of the house. I hear Arthur yelling at Alfred, but I don't look back. I can feel tears forming in my eyes as I open my door with shaking hands. I barely manage to close and lock the door before I slide to the floor against it.

My whole body begins shaking with the force of my sobs. I had hoped I would be safe from ridicule by being near Arthur. I had hoped it would be better, that I would never be called crazy again. It wasn't my fault I could see the fairies, just like it wasn't Arthur's. I felt something warm rub against my arms. I look down to see Lucky staring up at me. He hands me a pancake he had grabbed as I left. A laugh forces itself out of me as I grab it. I cuddle the little dragon and eat at the same time, finding comfort in his heated scales.

I jump at the knock on my door. I get up slowly and look through the peephole. I breathe a sigh of relief when I see it's just Arthur. I slowly open the door, just enough to see him and talk. I don't feel like letting anyone in right now. "May I help you?" I ask. I internally flinch at how cold I sound.

"Alice, I wanted to say I'm sorry. I'm sorry I couldn't keep my promise, especially in my own house. I promised to let no one make fun of you, but I couldn't keep it," he blurts out. I blink in surprise, because I hadn't been expecting an apology. I open the door wider, pull Arthur in, and shut the door behind him. "Alice I rea-" he tries to say, but gets cut off by me rushing into his arms.

I hug Arthur tightly as I begin crying even harder than before. I hear him about to say something, but I cut him off. "I'm crying this time because I'm happy. I'm really happy that you came over, that you came back, and that you're still my friend even after all these years. Tell me one thing though, did you kick Alfred's butt?"

"Of course love, no one calls my girl crazy and gets away with it," he whispers into my ear. I pull back in surprise, had he just called me his girl? What does that mean? I really want it to mean that he likes me, really likes me. He starts blushing once he realizes I'm staring at him.

"What did you mean by calling me your girl?" I whisper.

"What I mean is, you're my girl. The only one who understands me and everything I see. The one who sees it all with me, but doesn't run away. I mean, the whole time I was away, I never stopped thinking about you. I wanted to see you, hear your laugh, and feel your beautiful presence."

I blush harder with every word he says, but the next are what kicks me over the edge. "What I mean is, Alice I love you," he says, emerald eyes sparkling brighter than usual. I smile and lean forward, crashing my lips against his. We both melt into the kiss, moving against each other in sync. I gasp a little when his tongue licks my lips, allowing him entrance. I lean in closer, deepening the kiss even further.

We eventually need to break apart- our air supply was running low- and are met by Lucky and the other fairies clapping joyously. Arthur and I blush a deep red and look away from each other. The fairies giggle and fly around us, dropping little flower petals on us. We start laughing at their silliness and I hug Arthur even harder.

"I love you too."
