A/N: Boo… More notes -_-'

So, I'm not sure when this story will end, but most preferably by end of this year, because I'll be busy with school and stuff and only be able to use my laptop once a week for an hour. So I'll try and update every day until then. Please bear with me.

I'm still open to requests, so PM or review to appear. I already have Katherine to do the chapter after next with Germany and surprise OC, and Charlotte with Romano. (I'm personally happy that I'll get to write Romano soon. XD)

Are any of you interested in grabbing any OC nations?

(OC P.O.V)

"Mum, I'm home!" I said as I took of my shoes.

There was no reply.

I frowned. I tossed my bag to one side and went to the kitchen, where my mum would usually be, making lunch. I spotted a ready-made ham and cheese sandwich on the table and a note. Curiously, I picked it up and read: Dear Ashe, I've gone to get some toiletries for you for your trip to Japan. I'll be home soon. Love Mum.

Oh, so there's where's she's gone.

My name's Ashe Smith, aged 16 of this year. I'm your everyday ditzy teenage girl who stays proud of her slightly rundown house on a historical street in America. I've grown up here all my life, and I won't hesitate to hit anybody who dare call my home a junkyard. But it's a little sad that I'm leaving here soon.

When I say leaving, I mean leaving the country for Japan for a scholarship. Yes, I've been offered a scholarship at this time of the year. Of course, I accepted. It was a decent high school somewhere in Japan, and the sponsor for the scholarship said that if I kept my grades up, she'll sponsor my university education in Japan as well. I was seriously quite surprised by this. I never realised I was that smart.

My mum was probably the most excited member of my family when she heard the news. She was so excited that she ordered a Unat for me, a Feliciano Vargas Unat in this case. Oh, speaking of which, he's coming today.

Oh yeah! I completely forgot that my Unat was coming today! Filled with excitement, I wolfed down my lunch and went to the bathroom. I showered and changed into a shirt and jeans. Yes! Feli was coming today! Did I mention that Feliciano Vargas was my all-time favourite Unat! Seriously, he's cute and he's a great chef! And he loves pasta like I do! And he's a great friend from what I've read! And did I mention that he's cute?

My mind was whirling with thoughts of my to-be Unat. I can't wait, I can't wait…! I'm sure my mum would allow me to bring him to Japan with me!

In the middle of my mental fangirling, I heard the doorbell ring. Oh, my Unat was here!

"Coming!" I called cheerfully as I ran forward and opened the door. I pushed open the door, expecting the delivery guy. But instead, a familiar feminine face greeted me back.

"Hello, dear. Did you miss me?" Mum asked teasingly as she stepped in, her arms full of plastic bags. I pouted.

"I thought that was the ConTer delivery guy!" I said. Mum chuckled as she began unpacking the bags.

"Oh? Sorry to have kept your hopes up then!" Mum said as she went to put the toiletries away in the bedroom. I sat down on the couch and shook my head.

"Nah, it's nothing," I murmured back.

"Oh, by the way, Ashe," Mum said. "I have to go see your aunt. You know she's been busy since she gave birth to your baby cousin, so I told your uncle I'll run the groceries for her and spend the day with your aunt to keep her company and help out with the baby, so I'll be out the whole afternoon. Is that okay? Can you manage on your own?"

"Of course, Mum," I said as I mock-rolled my eyes. "I'm sixteen, not six!"

"Of course," Mum smiled as she grabbed her bag. "I'll see you in the evening. Your dad and I will go get something to eat before we come home, so don't go frying your own egg before we get home, okay?"

"Okay," I answered. I saw Mum to the door. "See you in the evening, Mum!"

"See you!" I gently closed the door and locked it. I then flopped to the couch. Now all I have to do is wait for the delivery guy.

One hour later…

DING DONG!

Hell yeah! That took the guy long enough! Seriously, that felt more like 60 years than 60 minutes. No, seriously, that was how bad it was.

I went to the door and opened it. A guy in a polo shirt and a cap grinned at me. He held out a clipboard and a pen. "Are you Ashe Smith?"

I nodded, barely containing my excitement.

"Okay, then. Please sign here, here and here. Yes, thank you! Here's your manual and I'll go get your Unat." The man turned and carried a life-size box into the house. I told him to put the box in the living room, and I saw him out. I thanked him and closed the door. Then I basically let loose and let out a high-pitched squeal.

"I GOT HIM, I GOT HIM!" I cheered, jumping up and down rather childishly. Suddenly, the box shook.

"Ve~!" a high-pitched voice came from the box. "I-I'm the… erm… box fairy! Let's play with each other!"

I stifled a giggle. I completely forgot that Feli was a bit of a coward. But this was new. I had no idea his reaction would come down to this.

"No, silly. There's nothing to be afraid of. I'll get you out of this box!" I said as I laid my hands on the box.

"N-no! I'm just a box fairy! A helpless box fairy! What would be the point of opening this box?" Feli's voice got more urgent.

"Oh, come on," I sighed. I ripped open the tape and opened the lid. That was when Feli sprang from the box and burst into noisy sobs.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! I'm not really a box fairy at all! Those were all lies! I'm sorry! Please don't hurt me! I'm still a virgin! It's no fun killing a virgin, right? I'm just Italy, a silly boy who likes pasta and pizza!"

"What…?" I got really confused. Did he just say Italy? As in the country itself?

"Don't kill me, please! I surrender!" Feli wailed as he waved his white flag furiously.

"I… won't. But… you're Italy? I-it… can't… it's… impossible," I stuttered.

"I'm North Italy, Feliciano Vargas," Feli whimpered. "Where's Germany and Japan? And fratello?"

"Huh…? You mean there are more nations?" I said in surprise. Okay, this was getting really confusing. Feli was actually a nation, and not a Unat?

Feli nodded. "Yes! Germany and Japan and my fratello, Romano, South Italy! Where are they?"

"I… don't know," I replied, still dumbfounded. "But… you're a nation…?"

"Yes, I'm Italy! And who are you?" Italy/Feli asked, brushing away the last of his tears.

"Ashe…"

"It's nice to meet you! I'm glad you're not so scary!" Feli grinned. "That means we can be friends, right? Then we can go look for the other nations, right?"

"Okay…" I said. "Wait, um… Italy! Do you mean there are other nations that are personified like you?"

Italy nodded. "Yes. Long ago some scary meteorite hit Earth and our bosses put us into dark boxes so that we could be safe. The next thing I know is that I wake up in another time period and that I'm separated from all my friends!"

Suddenly, everything became clear to me. Don't ask me why, but I suddenly understood everything and I couldn't help but give Italy a hug. Feli or Italy, he's still really sweet.

"It's okay, we'll look for your friends. Together, I promise."

Italy hugged me back. "Ve~! Grazie, Ashe!"

A/N: Sorry, but I was in a rush when writing this!
