Welcome to chapter eight! I don't really have much to say except thank you for all of the reviews, Alerts, and Favorites! Enjoy!^^
Once Arthur had been placed in his cell and everything sank in Ludwig stood up from his seat and left the room without a word. Feliciano looked nervously at all the other nations to see if someone was going to go after the blonde but when no one did he stood as well and ran after the man he loved.
"Ludwig wait!" he called as the blonde all but ran from the building turning back into a dog as he reached the street.
What happened next would forever be ingrained in the Italian neko's memory.
Ludwig bolted out of the building on four legs and wasn't paying attention to the fact that there were cars out and in a chorus of honking horns and screeching tires the large blonde dog was hit by at least three cars before skidding and rolling to a stop a mere ten yards from where he had been hit by the first car.
Everyone in the meeting room heard the accident as well as Feliciano's high pitched wailing right after. Gilbert was the first one out the door all thought lost when he saw Feliciano as a cat sitting next to a too still for comfort blonde dog with a black cross collar.
Ludwig was rushed to the nearest vet where he was treated for five broken ribs, a broken front right leg, head trauma, and a ruptured spleen. When the vet said that the blonde dog would live Gilbert quickly fainted in relief that he was not going to lose his little broth for a third time.
While most everyone was at the vet's with Gilbert; Feliciano, Kiku, Alfred, Sadik, Yao, and Antonio had stayed behind at the United Nations headquarters.
"It all happened so fast!" Feliciano yowled still in cat form
"Please calm down Feliciano-kun." Kiku told the distraught tabby
"How can I calm down?! Ludwig just got hit by a fucking car and now he could be dying or worse he could already be dead and nobody cares! It's just like when he first got sick the last time!" Feli yelled turning human again
"I can't live without him!" the Italian cried before breaking down into sobs as Antonio's phone rang
"Hola?" he answered
"Hey tomato bastard tell my stupid brother that the potato bastard is going to be ok." Lovino replied on the other line actually sounding happy that Ludwig was going to make it.
"Ok I'll tell him Lovi. No I won't go anywhere till you pick me up. Adios." The Spaniard said into the phone before hanging up
"Hey guys' great news! That was Romano and he said that other than being in extreme pain that Ludwig is going to be fine!" Antonio told them with one of his huge happy smiles
"Hey Feli hear that Luddy's going to be fine!" Alfred said instantly making the Italian happy again
"~Ve! That's a relief I don't know what I would do without him!" Feli smiled
"It's good that Ludwig is going to make it but let's move on to more important things like how we should deal with Arthur." Sadik reminded them
"I agree with Sadik aru." Yao told them as they all got serious.
"Well I really don't know what to think. I mean according to the journals this whole thing started because Arthur was mad at Ludwig but that still doesn't condone what Artie did whether or not it ended up backfiring." Alfred sighed
"What I want to know is why only we were infected. Arthur-san had said that anyone who had come into direct contact with Ludwig or anyone who had recently had direct contact would be infected but if that was the case then all of the Nations should be dead.
"He still attended meetings, he lived with Gilbert, Feliciano was intimate with him, there was that night when Antonio, Feliciano, and Lovino had to stay at his place; the list goes on but we were the only ones to get infected." Kiku pointed out
"Yeah I mean you and Heracles were close but only you and I got sick, Yao was never anywhere near Ludwig but could have gotten it from you or Arthur, in all reality Lovino and Matthew should have gotten sick from being around Ludwig, Feliciano, Arthur, and Antonio but both are fine. None of it makes any sense." Sadik added
"~Ve but why was I the last one to get sick? I never left Ludwig's side after he got sick so I should have been the second one to get sick." Feliciano stated
"Maybe you were and never showed any of the signs. I mean if Ludwig was able to hold out as long as he did for you and Gilbert I wouldn't be surprised if the same thing happened to you only you just didn't know it." Antonio said as he looked Feliciano in the eyes
"That makes sense seeing how close the two of you are together aru." Yao agreed before Francis, Matthew, Ivan, and Lovino walked in to collect their 'pets'
"Fratello Gilbert had to stay at the vet to fill out some paperwork so you're coming home with me and Tonio." Lovino told his brother as they all left.
It was a week before Ludwig as able to go home and when he was Feliciano was all but glued to his side staying in animal form just like the blonde.
"~Ve Luddy how are you feeling?" Feli asked as he licked his love's ear
"I'm still in a lot of pain but are you sure you still want anything to do with me? I was the reason you got sick and died." The blonde sighed
"The way I see it is that all of this was Arthur's fault and the others agree with me so no one is mad at you or blames you for anything. Besides even if you had been the only one to die I would have been dead by the end of the week.
"I can't live without you Ludwig, Ti amo." Feliciano told him
"Ich liebe dich auch Feliciano but I never want to hear that you would kill yourself ever again." Ludwig replied licking the cat's cheek
"I never said that I would kill myself just that I can't live without you. But at least we got into this mess together and I wouldn't have it any other way." The tabby smiled before both animals fell asleep curled next to each other in a warm patch of sunlight.
Prussia: Why did you make West get hit by a car?!
Raven: Because I needed something tragic so I would have more material for fluf so I wouldn't just go straight intyo a smut scene.
Romano: Keep that potato bastard away from my fratello!
Raven: I can't do that because they love each other like you love Antonio so both of you shut up and go get screwed.
Prussia and Romano: Reviewto find out what we do to arthur in the next chapter.
