Disclaimer: I do not own any of Hetalia etc.!
AN: Hello again! I'm so excited writing this fanfic I don't know why, I just feel so happy writing this fanfic. Everything is just getting more and more romantic~ me likey :D Okay, how do I come up with plots everyday? Easy! I make a plot in my class, especially math class. Its dead boring! No kidding, I just stay there on my seat thinking of a plot for the next chapter. I never get caught anyway~
Enjoy the chapter guys~
"Ve~ I'm tired Luddy! Carry me~" Feli whined as he was wheezing still trying to get his foot to next staircase.
"Why would I carry you?" Ludwig didn't look tired at all. What do you expect? That man has muscles of its own muscle, he was seen in the gym every single day. This was really nothing for him.
"Lovi~ carry me!" Feli clinged to his brother.
"Get away from you idiot! You're making it even heavier!" Lovino slapped Feliciano's arms away.
"We are almost there, bear it a little more please." Kiku stated.
"Guys, hah, I think… I'll catch you …. Up… I need a little break… whoo, I'm dying…" I panted holding my left side chest trying to catch a breath.
"Okay, I'll stay here with you." Arthur walked to me.
"No! I will!" Gilbert pulled Arthur.
"I will you bloody wanker!" Arthur shoved Gilbert.
"Uhh…" I looked at both of them "you guys can leave me here. Its just a few meters away."
"Its dangerous out here!" Arthur furrowed his bushy eyebrows a little.
"Well, I'm sure I'll protect her!" Gilbert narrowed his eyes glaring at Arthur.
"Heh, you? You can even barely stay here alone!" Arthur scoffed.
"Okay, stop it you two! I can protect myself!" I separated the both of them.
"You know I can totally stay with her if she wants, you two punks can go." Alfred popped in.
"I also won't mind…"
"Who said that man?" Alfred jumped back.
"You serious?" Gilbert beaded cold sweat.
"Its just me…." Matthew sighed.
"Oh! There you are Mattie! I have been searching for you everywhere man!" Alfred patted Matthew's back too hard.
"I bet you were…." Matthew rubbed his bruised back.
"Ve~ I'm tired too! How about I stay here with _?" Feliciano raised his hand.
"You are just going to burden _!" Ludwig disapproved "Its best to have you stay with me so that you won't burden anyone!" Feliciano's eyes got teary his lips were trebling.
"Don't make my brother cry you potato-bastard! I'll make you pay!" Lovino pointed at Ludwig.
"Lovi! Don't pick up fights!" Antonio held Lovino back.
"Then I shall stay here." Roderich sighed.
"Yeah! Me too!" Eliza said cheerfully.
"I'm sorry, I need to lead the way…" Kiku apologized.
"No need to apologize."
"Then I will stay here with this lovely lady!" Francis took my hand.
"DON'T TOUCH HER YOU FROG!" Arthur pulled Francis violently "WIPE THAT DAMN RAPE FACE OF YOUR FACE! ITS DISGUSTING THE HELL OUT OF ME!"
"See? I'm the one suited for this job! You all have to stay with your 'partners'!" Gilbert snickered.
"Eh? No, no. you guys go I'm staying here!" Arthur waved his hand.
"But I'm tired~"
"Dude, I'm the hero! I'll protect her!"
"You bastards are so noisy! Just decide already! If you don't I'll stay here!"
"I told you I want to stay here with _! Roddy you can go ahead."
"I will stay if you stay, I don't want to go with those people…."
"I'm fine going anywhere…"
"I'm staying~"
"No way in hell you bloody frog!"
"Then I will!"
"Shut up!"
I gritted my teeth and clenched my fists, frustrated hearing the argument.
"OH MY GOD! I SAID I'M FINE ALONE! YOU GUYS CAN GO AHEAD! WHY ARE YOU FIGTHING TO STAY HERE WITH ME? JUST GO!" I finally snapped.
Everyone looked at me frozen. Feliciano was an inch away in crying, everyone was basically speechless after hearing me shout.
"I'm sorry, I didn't listen to you…" Gilbert rubbed his head.
"I just wanted to be very sure you would be safe…" Arthur shrugged.
"I just wanted….. to stay with you while we rest… also we can get to know each other better…." Feliciano looked down sadly.
"I'm sorry its just that I don't want to lose with them…. I also want to protect you…" Alfred scratched his head.
"They were just too noisy, and uh, I just wanted them to shut up…"
"I'm sorry _, I thought they wouldn't notice me when I'm there anyway."
"I want to stay with you _! We're best friends right? I'll never leave you!"
"Its okay guys, I'm sorry I just snapped" I apologized "Kiku, where is the bridge?"
"Just go straight and go left then go left again then around the right corner you'll see the bridge."
"Got it, meet you guys there 'kay?"
"Be careful okay?" Arthur looked at me worried "If anything happens, just shout and I'll be come after you."
"Thank you…" I smiled.
"Me too!" Gilbert smiled pointing at himself. Arthur glared at him in annoyance.
"Yes, yes…" I giggled.
"If anything happens don't hesitate to call us okay?" Ludwig smiled at me. I nodded.
"The let's get going." Kiku led the way, I watched their backs fading away in the darkness.
Finally I can get a little rest, okay, left left right. I hope I remember it later, if I don't I can just wait for them here. I sat down on the staircase sighing. My right feet hurts, is it because I walked too much? I kicked the geta off and looked at my swollen feet, I didn't expect using them would hurt. Maybe I should just wait for them here…. I don't think I can walk anymore… suddenly, I heard a faint rustling of the bushes. What is that? Calm down, perhaps its just a cat or something. The rustling became louder, my heart pounded faster.
No one's here… its just an animal Calm yourself down _! Suddenly I felt a cold chill running down my spine. I gasped and looked around me. No one. I stood up and carried your geta, ignoring the pain on my feet. I think its better if I catch them up now. I started to climb up the stairs when a black shadow passed me by. No! it can't be! Its just a cat! Slowly, my walking turned to running. I constantly climbed the stairs, I didn't care if I was exhausted. Shit! Left or right? Left! Yes left! Your brain was tricking me even more, it was telling you that the thing maybe chasing after you right at that moment. Its right the next right? Or left? Left right? I didn't stop running as you tried to remember. Whatever! I'm taking right! What? This isn't it! Its too dark! I can't see a thing!
I got even more scared and panicked. I need to go back! Where was it again? My head hurt so much, I was too tired and scared to think. I began to run even faster to random directions, I felt that the ground was not normal. A slope! A steep one! I couldn't balance myself properly since I was in a yukata causing to me tumble over. I rolled right down, I held your ankle in pain as it was sprained and my body was full of wounds, my yukata was a total mess. I felt tears rolling down your cheeks, Gilbert, Arthur, Eliza…. Anyone? Help me…. My voice couldn't come out, my body was already very weak. Slowly, my vision got blurry and slowly, I closed my eyes.
"_..._..._, _! _!" a faint voice was heard.
Who is there? Can you help me? I opened your eyes lying on the ground. I noticed a flash of light moving. Everyone! I tried to get up but my body just wouldn't listen.
"_! FOUND YOU!" a shadow appeared at the top of the slope where I fell into.
Who is that? I can't see him or her… whatever… just help me… I lost consciousness again.
Huh? What's this faint noise? Sounds like…. Bugs? Crickets? I opened my eyes and in front of me were hundreds of fireflies flying around. My eyes widened and I sat up. They were the only thing you could see in the pitch black space. Am I…. dead? Why are there fireflies? Or did no one find me? My foot feels better…. My yukata, I'm wearing my normal clothes now…
"Do you like it?" I heard a familiar voice.
"Wh-who are you?" I got a little scared.
"Close your eyes _..." I just obeyed the voice not knowing why. The person speaking changed….
"Now open."
I opened one of my eye and my (C/E) reflected the glowing bugs. In front of me was jars of fireflies arranged in words. Welcome _! Don't tell me… tears of joy were rolling down my cheeks and I smiled wiping the tears off.
"Welcome to Hetalia High _! We all love you!" voices combine together.
"Thank you… I don't know how to repay you…. This is just so…" a hand patted my shoulder.
The jar of fireflies were brought up, the dim light lit Eliza's smiling face "I told you we were going to make a welcoming party. I'm so sorry _... I should've…" Eliza started sobbing.
"Its okay, its not your fault…" I gave her light strokes on the head.
The others walked to me with a jar of fireflies on their hands.
"See? I told you she would love it~" Gilbert grinned.
"Oh please, I perfected it! Without my touches it wouldn't turn out this good!" Arthur scoffed.
"But I caught most of the fireflies!" Alfred said proudly.
"Actually I did….." Matthew sighed.
"I told you to call for us!" Ludwig sighed.
"Ve~ I'm so happy you're okay _! What will I do if you were not?" Feliciano hugged me.
"You got yourself in a pretty big trouble, you idiot…." Lovino pouted he looked sort of like he cried.
"You should let one of us stay with you next time okay?" Antonio smiled at me.
"Such troublesome girl you are! Please, don't be so stubborn next time we were worried sick of you!" Roderich pushed his glasses.
"Mademoiselle, what can I do to make it up for you~?" Francis smiled.
"My deepest apologies _-san, I will never let this be repeated this again." Kiku bowed down.
I never felt so welcomed before, tears came rolling down even more as we all hugged together.
"I love you guys so much! Too bad Yao and Ivan are not here…"
"I don't think Ivan likes these kind of things anyway…." Arthur raised his brows.
"Okay, I know this a major mood breaker but, where are we?" I asked.
"Um, in your room?" Gilbert grinned.
"And, how are going to get the loose fireflies out again?"
"We, uh haven't thought about that yet…." Gilbert shrugged.
Everyone stared at him.
"Your idea, your responsibility!" everyone said in unison.
"EH? Me? How can I do this alone?"
"Aw, come on you guys, let's do it together."
~TIMESKIP~
"I'm sorry, because of me, you guys didn't get to see the fireworks…"
"No, its okay!" Eliza smiled. Everyone else nodded.
"That's why, we are going to party tonight!" Gilbert announced.
"Why not?" you smirked.
"So, what are going to do? Please not anything like yesterday…." Arthur waved his hands.
"Poker strip~" Francis proposed. Everyone's faces turned you-kidding-me?
"Yeah, in your dirty dreams frog!" Arthur threw a pillow at Francis.
"What was that for huh?" Francis threw the pillow back rather hard.
"Ow! That hurt bloody frog!" Arthur scowled and threw the pillow violently, Francis dodged it.
"Whoops, sorry Alfred…." Arthur tried not to laugh.
Oh no… this is like food fight all over again… well, at least we won't get dirty this time…
"I see, now… you all want to play pillow fight." Kiku's eyes gleamed.
What the? Everyone never seen Kiku like that so it made us all shocked.
"Then a pillow fight it is!" Gilbert threw a pillow at Roderich's face.
"Why did you have to throw it at me first?" Roderich grunted.
"I dunno, feel like it." Gilbert shrugged grinning.
"Take this!" Francis threw a pillow right on Ludwig's face.
"Was das-?" Ludwig death glared at Francis.
"Merde… threw it at the wrong person…" Francis crawled back.
Without hesitation, Ludwig threw the pillow back, with full strength of course, but Francis dodged it so it was going for Matthew. Matthew's inner athlete kicked in and caught it easily.
"I-I'm so sorry Matthew! I didn't mean to throw it at you!" Ludwig was rather surprised seeing him being able to catch the pillow.
"It's okay…"
"Hey, Eliza! Heads up~" Gilbert laughed throwing a pillow to Eliza.
"Wha-" Eliza's face was hit by the pillow. Gilbert let out a little shriek as he saw Eliza's face when the pillow fell down revealing her murder face. Eliza stood up and picked the pillow up. "You are going to regret Gilbert…"
"Scheiße…."
In seconds, the game started as a full out war. Japan was leaping throwing pillows to everyone. I got hit several times but was able to hit people too.
"Luddy! Protect me! I'm scared!"
"Stop throwing the pillows on my beauti- ow! Not again!"
"Protect me you tomato bastard! Be my shield!"
"Eeeh? But you constantly throw pillows at me!"
"Kesese~ you're so bad at this young master!"
"You all bloody- who the hell threw that?"
"It's a mistake choosing this activity! I'm the king of pillow fight, IN SUDDEN DEATH!"
"I give uuupppp~"
"Gilbert, I swear one more time you- that's it! You're asking for it!"
"This game is so childish… I can't believe Kiku actually likes this…"
"HAHAHA! I the hero will eliminate you all!"
"You bloody frog stop throwing it at me! You too you bloody- you're all DEAD!"
"I'll just catch pillows…."
Our day ended after having war between each other, everyone ended up sleeping at my room anyway. We were all knocked out after all the throwing. Thus, comes the last day of the trip.
AN: I know, I'm totally forgetting about China and Russia, the thing is I don't know how to make them do these kind of stuff, being happy, having fun. Especially Russia! I have no idea what he likes or makes him not creepy! Anyone help me! But I promise you they will get some part after this all ends. Including the others and Nordics! No promises though sorry…. Anyway, see you guys in the next chap :D
