Chapter 11
Prussia smiled as he looked at his phone. Three days had passed since his and Canada's first date, and so far the two of them were at a great start relationship-wise. They had even set up a new date for that evening, which Prussia enjoyed the thought of very much. The only problem at that time that Prussia saw was the fact that Turkey had yet to clear up if the nations suspected had anything to do with the attack. So far when he asked Turkey the other day, the man told him that Iraq and Iran said they did not and that he had not been able to talk in detail with Afghanistan. Prussia tried however to not let this bother him. He was certain that they would find the person who hurt Canada, but at the moment there was not much that he could do.
Prussia placed his phone in his pocket and looked in a mirror, wanting to make sure that he looked alright. He was meeting Canada at a restaurant in an hour and knew that he needed to leave soon if he wanted to be on time, so after checking himself over he left for his car and drove off.
When he reached the restaurant, he saw Canada waiting for him outside the doors. He smiled as he walked up to her, only to then call out to her, "Hey Birdie! Have you been waiting long?"
She looked to him, but did not smile or return his greeting; which only made Prussia concerned. As he got closer to her he asked, "What's wrong, you look like you just saw a ghost?"
"Can we go to a different restaurant?" Canada whispered, slowly reaching out for Prussia's hands and looking at the other pleadingly.
"Sure, of course…is something wrong?" Prussia asked. In response, Canada bit her lip and glanced to side to side. She then leaned closer and said, "I-I feel like someone is watching me."
"Wouldn't surprise me, you are pretty awesome looking," Prussia said while smiling in an attempt to calm her down.
Canada however simply shook her head and said, "I don't like it, it feels…wrong. Please, can we go someplace else? Now?"
To this Prussia agreed to go to another restaurant, and escorted the quickly relieved girl to his car. From there he drove to another restaurant in silence, only to notice through his back mirror that a car seemed to be following him. At last he reached another restaurant and pulled into the parking lot, only to then watch to his relief as the other car passed for the next street.
After seeing this, the two of them left the car and entered the building to have a nice dinner. Half way through the meeting, however, Prussia could not help but notice Canada suddenly become paler and quieter than normal. Around the time for dessert, Prussia asked, "Is everything alright Birdie?"
Canada shook her head for a moment, only to then respond, "Those guys from the far table are watching us."
"So?" Prussia asked as he turned his head to look at them. As he stared at the men Canada continued, "They keep giving me angry and creepy faces."
Prussia nodded as he looked at them. If memory served him well, they were the same men who were bothering Canada at the last meeting; the three men who he was told had no proof saying that they were involved with the attack. But why were they here and only looking at the two of them? Prussia then commented, "They're not your friends, are they."
"No…in fact I really don't like them right now," Canada whispered before continuing, "What do they want?"
"Why don't you like them?" Prussia asked; only to have Canada look down and gulp. When Prussia saw this, he took it as a hint that she would rather not talk about it, so he then asked, "Would you like me to take you home?"
Canada nodded and began to get out of her chair. Prussia then followed suit, and soon the two of them were outside in the parking lot. As they left, Canada could not help but notice the other three walk out the door several yards behind them. When she noticed this, she held onto Prussia arm and whispered, "They're coming closer."
Prussia glanced backwards at them then back to her. He then gave her a smirk to help convince her that everything would be alright before saying, "It's alright Birdie, the awesome me won't let anything hurt you. Now I'm going to have a little chat with these guys, and if you're still afraid then you can go to the car and wait for me. I'll only be a couple minutes."
With this said Prussia released himself from the Canadian's grip, turned, and walked up to the small group. Once he was only five feet away, Prussia stopped and asked, "Do you guys have a problem, because you've been worrying my date all night."
"Not really. We just wanted to talk to you and the girl," Iran said.
"About what?" Prussia asked, "And why couldn't you just ask instead of freaking us out?"
"We need to talk to her about that attack from a little while ago," Iraq said.
"Is that so? Well, I wanted to ask you three about the same thing," Prussia responded.
"Really, then we are in luck. What we wanted to know is if you guys have come up with any leads as to who did it," Iran stated.
"Actually yes," Prussia said offhandedly only to then look behind him to see Canada watching them. Even from the distance, he could see the worry on her face as she looked at the other three. Prussia then nodded to her and turned back to them, only to then say, "You three."
And…cliff-hanger!
