Spain was exhausted, but what else was new. He had just woken up but because he had spent so much time taking care of you and his worry kept him awake he was always worn down. Bags lined the underneaths of his eyes and when he walked he walked hunched over, as he was doing now, as he was going to check up on you in your room. His vision was blurry and he was beginning to sway back and forth down the hallways. He had actually passed out in the hallway a few days before, being rudely awoken by a cranky Romano telling him to move his ass.

Damn, he wondered where that little kid got his mouth.

Anyway. He was trudging sullenly up the stairs to your room now, taking the steps a half step at a time, if that were even possible, and leaning against the rail as he did so. God, he was about to pass out right here and now… but he kept moving, just a few more steps and he could take your temperature and collapse in the hallway for a long needed nap…

A little blob of (color) passed by his feet but he paid it no mind because dammit he needed to make it to your room-

"Good morning, Mr. Spain."

He stopped, shocked and dumbfounded all at the same time. He spun around on his heel to see you smiling up at him with your cute little lopsided grin and shimmering (color) eyes. His heart skipped a beat and before you even knew it he was holding you close to his chest as he nuzzled your face affectionately.

"My little tomato~" he cooed lovingly. "You're all better now, si?"

You laughed, the sound caught somewhere between a giggle and a snort and nodded your head as you looked up at him.

"It's all thanks to you and big brother Romano."

Then you kissed his cheek as a sign of a thank you.

And he commenced with hugging you and telling you how happy he was to see you all better.

I'm back baby. *strikes pose* Sorry for such a delay in posting this but I'll be honest in saying I went back to posting on Quizilla and got absorbed in other series I had started. It's hard juggling the two sites, now, but I promise this Spain story will be finished and I will update it every month (attempting to update every weekend like I used too) Also, I've been going to the doctor a lot for my restless legs and feminine problems. They stuck needles in me, and dammit my arm hurts now. So does my poor finger. So that's why I've been gone.

Also, if you are reviewing this story review on the last chapter posted so when I get the next chapter out I can think you properly for your review, since I might not know if the review was new or if I already replied to it. Okay? Thanks.

Reviewer Countdown:

16 reviews? Mien Gott. I… I love you all. *tears up*

mybeautifulimperfection: Thank you so much! I'm better now, thank you :3 I don't make my smoothies, I get them from McDonalds xD

Lovelybone13: Oh~ About two years ago at my school we had an online class where you could take any language we wanted, but the budgets got cut so only French, German, and Spanish~ Yes, Romano is just trying to make the reader love him, because he has a crush on her~ *spoiler*

Someonething94: Oh my goddess. I love you xD *giggle snorts at Austrian accent*

Ammy-chan: Only if I can help~ ;3 Thank you! I'm better now, thanks. Yes. It is even greater since the microwave, go, YOU TRY ONE NAO.

JH014: lol, my friends know me as Germany so whenever I say I want something from Germany the same thing happens to me xD

Marli-chan Tuchanka: lol, thank you! I hope you do!

Death Before Darkness: *noms* god, these things are better than orgasms =3= Romano is the shit, man. Have I told you about ho I think his eyes are just godly~? /slapped.

La Munka Chan: lol, no it's okay xD I would have laughed too. But that puke, man it was nasty! I've never puked like that before! =3= Thank you! I'm feeling better now, thanks :3

Vienna13: well, welcome to the countdown! :D and thank you so much for your review! They make my day, you know.

Chikako: Haha, thank you! :3 I do feel much better now. Well, I've seen the difference between Tennessee and other states and having breathing problems I can definitely say I'm not living in the best place :[ It's a nice place to live, I guess, but me being me I cant help but wish I lived somewhere either really hot and tropical like Florida or someplace really cold like say, Russia. Does that mean you live in Hawaii? And no, don't apologize, I like to hear about my reviewers lives outside the internet x3

SadisticallyMine: I love your profile picture, just to let you know x3! Thank you for the review! Also, I'm a horrible person for making you wait three weeks for the latest chapter, aren't I? x3

AngelSilverWolf: lol! I'm glad you liked it! After I learn German, it's off to Spanish. But no French because no one likes France *Is just kidding, loves France very much*

InTheAsylum: I hate being sick too… I feel so dirty, like I can never get clean…

Zeroxriku: thank you for the review! It means a lot that you'd take the time! :3

Toolazytologinx3: Yes, I can tell~ xD Thank you for the review! Romano and Spain… I cant choose who I love more, it's just… impossible.

Ms. Irony: you think so? I'm glad! The chapters are meant to be short, since this is more of a drabble collection than a novel type thing. If I was doing the novel type thing, trust me, the chapters would all be at least six pages long on Microsoft. Lol, yes, those phrases I mentioned in Spanish… ahem… *feels dirty saying this* I can only remember "eat my pussy, daddy" at this moment, and the spelling is incorrect but I spell it how one would pronounce it. Here it is: "Mon ah loop ah nu che pop e." I believe it's spelled "Mana lupa nuchi papi.", though. Thanks for the review!
