Chapter 12
Another month had passed since the usual two had Sweden, Finland, and Sealand visit, and now Norway looked like a fourteen-year-old. While Denmark now knew that Norway's moodiness was most likely due to him starting puberty, that did not stop him from worrying about how the boy acted. The main reason for his reasoning at this time was due to the fact that Norway had started acting even stranger than the past month.
For the past few days, Norway would gain spurts of energy where he would spend hours walking around and calling out at random, only to then lay down and stay in that place for longer amounts of time than usual. This was how Norway was acting on that day. Throughout the night Norway was awake talking to seemingly himself, which kept Denmark awake, only to then fall asleep in his bed and refuse to leave that morning.
At first Denmark tried to convince himself that there was nothing wrong, but then he noticed when he checked on him in the afternoon what Norway's face was blushed. Upon seeing this, Denmark leaned closer to Norway and asked, "Nor, do you feel alright?"
"…I'm fine," Norway said while pulling the sheets up in an attempt to cover his face. Denmark frowned at this and placed his hand on Norway's head, only to feel that the boy had a slight fever.
"You sure? You do feel a bit warmer than usual," Denmark said while looking his friend over.
"It's okay…it's probably just some growing pains or something," Norway said while turning away from Denmark before saying, "Now leave. Your smell's really getting to me today."
Denmark continued to frown at this, obviously not buying Norway's response. He then said, "Okay…but just in case, I think I'm going to run to the store and get you some medicine."
Norway silently nodded to this and closed his eyes as if to fall asleep. Moments later he heard Denmark close the front door, start his car, and drive off. Norway gave out a sigh shortly after Denmark left; and slowly sat up. He was tired of lying down in bed, and had the energy to go for another walk. This time instead of staying inside, however, he decided that some fresh air would do him some good.
Following his decision, Norway left through the back door and stepped into the backyard. It was a nice day outside, which only seemed to fill Norway with even more energy. It did not take him long to walk around the back yard, but he neither wanted to go inside nor stop his walk to rest. Due to this, Norway at last decided to leave the confides of the back yard and explore past the street. In all actuality, this was the first time that Norway had left the house property without Denmark or one of the other Nordics with him, which caused the boy to feel a mixture of both anxiety and excitement. He cautiously took the first few steps onto the sidewalk to make sure that it was safe, before he picked up speed as he realized that nothing was going to happen to him.
Norway was enjoying his walk through the semi-deserted residential area, and stopped several times to look at the objects which he usually only saw through car windows. At one of these stops, however, his peaceful walk ended.
The reason for the sudden halt came when Norway heard a car pull up to the curb behind him. Curious as to whom it was, Norway stood up from his crouched position and watched as a man got out of the still-running car. The afternoon light hit the metal walls of the car in just the right way as to make it hard for Norway to see who the man was or what he was doing. Before Norway could fully register what happened, the man jumped onto him and pinned him to the ground face first.
"Get off me! Who are you?" Norway shrieked while desperately trying to free himself. He hissed and wiggled and tried to claw at the stranger, but whoever had attacked him held on tightly and was not afraid of the teenager's regular threats. Norway continued this for several minutes, only to stop when he was panting due to exhaustion and knew that it was futile continue.
The stranger gave out a chuckle at Norway's attempts of freedom, only to then say when Norway stopped, "Are you done?"
Norway tried to glare at his opponent, but the stranger held Norway's head down so that the boy could not see him. The stranger looked the boy over in silence, only to realize that the boy was trembling and could see a bit of pink rise even more in the boy's cheeks. He gave out another chuckle to this before saying, "Now why don't we go back to my house and see what I can do for you."
With this said, the stranger hauled Norway to his feet, and while keeping the boy pinned, pushed him into the backseat and locked the door. After doing this, the stranger quickly got into the driver's seat and drove off to his home; leaving the street as silent as it was before he grabbed the boy.
