Chapter 11

Matthew sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose. Harry and Gilbert stood at opposite ends of a fighting mat, both glared at each other. No matter what Canada said Prussia was hell bent on proving himself.

"Come at me old man." Gilbert said.

"You're calling me old?" Harry asked with a smirk.

Prussia had to think for a second about what Harry meant. "Didn't think about that kiddo." He admitted with a devilish smirk stepping forward. Harry matched his step. Matthew stepped in between them and shot a glare towards both.

"One round, whoever pins who to the ground wins." Canada said firmly.

"But-" Harry and Gilbert both stuttered at the same time.

"No buts, that's all I'm allowing." The Canadian said shaking his head and stepping back. Harry glared suspiciously at Prussia. The older agent knew something was going on between the two nations.

"Alright." Harry said after a minute of silence and changed into a defensive stance. Gilbert smirked and also took up a defensive stance. The Prussian threw the first punch which Harry easily dodged and grabbed the nations wrist. The albino twisted out of Harry's grip and dropped down into a crouch and kicked the agent's feet out from under him.

Gilbert jumped at Harry, but before he could pin him, the agent rolled away and back onto his feet. Prussia narrowed his eyes and growled lunging at Harry. The agent shook his head and side stepped sticking his foot out tripping the nation. Harry jumped and pinned Prussia to the ground.

"You're good, but could use some practice." Harry said standing up and offering a hand to Gilbert. The Prussian took it begrudgingly. "I'll leave Matthew to the teaching."

-❄"I can't go to hell; I'm all out of vacation days."❄-

"No Gilbert, like this." Matthew said patiently showing his boyfriend the move again. The Prussian payed close attention to Canada's movements and shook his head. The other Kingsman had left long ago to get lunch and didn't come back.

"I don't get it, vhat am I doing wrong?" Gilbert said furrowing his eyebrows.

"You're not controlling your rotation and arm positions." Matthew explained. "Don't rotate too much or you'll be off balance and could be easily pinned."

"Oh, I kinda get it." Gilbert grumbled spinning and kicking the training dummy again.

"That was great! Do a couple more to really get it down pat. Then we'll quit for the day." Matthew said with a smile. Prussia smirked back and kicked the dummy a couple more times before turning to Canada.

"Are jou mad at me for fighting Harry?" He asked suddenly.

Matthew blinked confused. "No. Why would I be?"

"Jou seemed annoyed." Gilbert said looking at the ground.

"No, I understand why you wanted to. I'm not mad." Canada smiled.

"Can't get mad at a face like this?" The albino said smiling sweetly. "So, vhen are ve going to tell them?"

"Well I don't think it's a good idea yet. It's only been a day. Also it might not be good timing with the whole Flicker thing going on right now."

"Ja, jou're right." Prussia nodded. "I'm kinda nervous to say anything to Harry or Merlin. Their shovel talk might involve a shot gun or something."

Matthew laughed. "I doubt it. What about your brother? He's scary!"

"Vest? Nah, he's just a big puppy." The albino said putting an arm around Matthews's waist and pulling him close. "Maybe I should be more scared of France, England and jour brother."

"They don't even remember me half the time, so I wouldn't me too worried." Canada smiled resting his head in the crook of Prussia's neck.

"I don't know how they could ever forget you."
