A/N: Heyo! I'm back once again! You have no idea how much I love your reviews, you make this so worth the procrastination of chemistry homework! ;)

Speaking of chem, I posted a video on my youtube page where my roommate makes a sort of shout out to you guys, and she told me to plug that video (though I already said I would) so I am. XD You don't have to, but you can. Channel name is: Ep1kPh41l, for anyone who didn't catch that last chapter or didn't go check out the link on my profile page.

Excellent Français! Avez-vous utiliséGoogle translateou saviez-vousque ça?

HikariKegawaAshi : Haha! Last question was what's your favorite letter. I know, I've been trying to get my sister to read it too! She just doesn't love me enough… *sniff sniff* Just kidding! Haha! Glad you're enjoying!

darkangels1112: Isn't his accent wonderful? I thought you might like to know that your silly word didn't show up. Your review says: "my favorite silly word I would have to say because I love that it's freaking long" and then the rest of the review. I know what word you're talking about, though, because my roommate and I have had discussions about that word! XD
Hm… I never considered 'M' for that reason, but you bring up a valid point!

envysfangirl: KUMQUAT! Love that word! So it's very different from the original? I knew it was different, I just wasn't sure how much. I love soul eater, it made me so happy! I'm actually very sad the series is over! :'(
hahaha! Truth be told, I've never had a scone. I just always joke about them tasting terrible because England can't cook. XD

HungaryJayFeather: To tell you the truth, I was already debating how I could incorporate Prussia into the story! He's so awesome and is my current obsession and I plan on cosplaying him at con this year! *Happiness* So, yes, you may request that and, yes, I am trying to put him in. He got mentioned in this chapter, but only mentioned. XD
And, thanks to you, I just fell in love with the letter 'P'!
Enjoy the chapter!

Random Fangirl Number 37: Can I just say your account name is epic? Your review made me squeal like a fangirl just now. Yay Prussia! (Current extreme obsession) And, if my story has a chance at competing with his awesomeness/being compared to his awesomeness, that's pretty freaking awesome! Though, it was Prussia's fist pump in the background that made me squeal. XD GYAH! WEEKEND HOMEWORK! *Currently procrastinating* hehe… ^.^

owlcitystars98: HOLY LONG REVIEW! XD Okay, here we go: Yes, cats are wonderful. Can't have Greece without cats! OH MY GOSH, YOUR GERMAN SPARKLE PARTY OUTFIT SOUNDS WONDERFULLY EPIC! That makes me so freaking happy, you have no idea!
So that's what the blueberry was about? I didn't know they had blueberry Jello, that's pretty epic!
haha! That's my favorite part of the song too! 'omnomnomnomnom!' My favorite song by them, currently, is whip your kids featuring nice peter, and I've been listing to nice peter's epic rap battles recently too, they're pretty awesome! So, you've listened to those too?
And, I am known at school for being psychic, sooooo…. XD INSTRUMENT OF AWESOME! You should teach me at some point.
When I eat pudding, I mix chocolate and butterscotch. They're very good together.
Yay for off topicness!

Tono Radish: Will do! Hahaha! Your favorite letter is pretty epic, I must admit! What word does that go in? XD

HERE'S THE CHAPTER, ENJOY IT! *Yes, that's a command! JUST KIDDING!*


Ludwig walked up the hall to Feliciano's door, sighing inwardly and debating whether this was really necessary. Things were fine, he was going to sound ridiculous bringing this up. So, he should just go right back downstairs and resume his work.

Unfortunately, he'd already done that several times… a day… for the past week.

There was no doubting it, something had to be talked about. But… it wasn't something that had to be discussed with Italy. He… well… it was the other people that were the problem, right? Hell, there was no denying it. Something was definitely wrong. Well… wrong was a little far to take it. Offwas a better way of putting it.

Strunella was acting extremely weird and had been completely avoiding Italy for the past couple weeks. Granted… wasn't it a little odd Germany couldn't seem to locate her guardians or a nearby orphanage that recognized her? Couldn't find any hospital records either, and she was much more aware than any normal eight year old. Heck, google didn't even have any information about a girl named 'Strunella'. It was as if she didn't exist!

So for her to be avoiding Italy like the plague was weird. Plus Romano wasn't around nearly as much trying to get Italy away from Germany and Japan didn't like doing anything with Italy if Germany wasn't there, not that he'd said it. Japan just had a tendency to freak out and suggest alternate options if Germany suggested the two of them do something.

Sighing, Germany knocked on the door. Even if nothing was wrong with Italy –which, nothing was wrong with him-, Italy had a right to know. His Italian probably wouldn't pick up on the fact that people were avoiding him on his own, so he should talk to him about it. Maybe he'd have some bizarre idea as to why. The German doubted it, but still.

After what felt like an eternity, the Italian nation opened the door, looking up at Germany and smiling. "Doitsu! Buon giorno!"

"Uh… Ja. Guten Morgen, Italien." He guessed at what the smaller nation was saying. "Can I talk to you?"

"Si! Of course! Do you want me to come downstairs or-"

"No, we can just sit down in here and talk." Smiling, Italy stepped aside to let the German in and closed the door behind him, sitting down on his bed once the German had made himself comfortable in a chair against the wall. "Do you need something?"

"Nein, I just vanted-"

"Did I do something wrong…?" the Italian misread Ludwig's hesitancy as disapproval.

"No, I-"

"I promise, I wasn't trying to-"

"You didn't do anything wrong, Feli!..."

"Oh…"

"Vait… veren't trying to do vhat?"

"Uh… nothing, Doitsu! What did you want to talk about?"

Sighing, Germany looked at the ground. He'd find out soon enough, that's all he needed to know for the moment. The last thing he needed was to get side-tracked. "I just vanted to see if you had noticed anything strange going on."

"Strange… with the pasta? That's because you didn't buy fresh tomatoes from the market like I said, you bought ones from a store and-"

"Not vith the pasta!"

"Oh… strange with what?"

"Strange vith everyone coming over."

"No… it doesn't seem like more people are coming… why?"

"Not that more people are coming over… Just.."

"What?"

Germany sighed. It wasn't too late to decide not to tell him. I mean, it was obvious the Italian was blissfully ignorant as always.

No, he had a right to know people were scared of him. "Italy, have you noticed that people haven't been talking to you as much?"

He slowly shakes his head. "No… not really… I thought it was just because I had been sick. Being sick really sucks, you know!"

"No, not like you vere sick. More like they're…" Scared?... who could possibly be scared of an Italian… There was nothing scary about him!

"Like they're…" Italy's face lost some of the light humor it'd held previously, suddenly slightly concerned for the rest of Germany's sentence.

"Like they just vant to avoid being around you in general."

"But… not like I'm sick?"

"No, not like you're sick."

"Then… what is it like?"

Germany sighed, cautiously determining what he should say. No one was scared of the Italians, so it couldn't possibly be fear. But… … what else could it be?

"Did I say something insulting to someone?" The Italian prompted Germany, pulling him from his line of thought.

"No, you didn't."

"Then… what…?" He was trying to understand, but the problem was there was nothing for him to understand at the moment. Germany hadn't thought through what he was going to say to him.

"It's…" Sighing, Ludwig gently shook his head and smiled slightly. "Never mind, Feli. I must be imagining things."

"Oh… … Well that's a relief!" The Italian stood off his bed, smiling and being as cheery as ever. "I was afraid I had done something wrong!"

"Not in the slightest." The Aryan nation looked up at his standing boyfriend, smiling slightly at the amount he had overreacted. He really must have been imagining things, there was absolutely nothing scary about Italy! He was so bouncy and happy and full of… sad as it was, sunshine!

"Now I want to talk to you!"

Blinking, Germany tilted his head. "About vhat?"

"I want to have a Christmas party this year!"

"A… Christmas party?"

"Si!"

"… Vhy?"

"Because I think it'd be lots of fun! We could invite lots of people! And have a secret Santa, a big Christmas tree, lots of decorations, missile toe,…" Germany couldn't help but slightly zone out, staring at Italy as he went off on his tangent. So easily excited… It was strange how quickly he bounced back.

"What do you think?" Germany glanced up to meet his closed eyes.

"Think about vhat?"

"Who should we invite?"

"Whoever you vant, Feliciano."

"Well, I was thinking that we should invite Romano, Spain, Prussia, Russia-"

"You can't have them at the same party."

"Oh yeah… well we can invite Prussia. Russia's a little scary anyway. And big brother France, and America, and Switzerland, and Lichtenstein, and Austria, and Hungary, and England, and Japan, and Netherlands, and-"

"Vait… who did you say?"

"Netherlands... don't you like him? We could invite someone else if-"

"Nein, before that."

"Uh… Japan?"

Germany shook his head. "Before that."

"Hungary."

"No… it vas after that."

Italy opened his eyes, looking to the side and thinking. "I don't think I mentioned anyone after that…"

"You said 'England'…"

Italy let his eyes fall on the ground. "But you see-"

"Feliciano, I thought you were afraid of Arthur… you and your brother…"

"Yeah… …" Italy reached his arm up, nervously rubbing his other arm and continuing to stare at the ground beside him before looking up into Germany's icy blue eyes.


A/N: Hehe, CLIFF HANGER! I've always wanted to do that effectively! ^.^
