The Families, Part 4: The Beilschmidt Family

Two weeks after the meeting, Germany was up making breakfast for his brother and kids. Heike was the first to come downstairs from her room. She pet each of the three dogs, Aster, Blackie, and Berlitz. Alexander came down about an hour later.

"Guten morgen." Germany said. placing the food on plates and putting the plates in front of the two siblings.

"Guten morgen, Vater," both said almost simultaneously. They began to eat the eggs and hash browns that were put on their plates. Germany sat down at the table with his plate and drank his dandelion coffee.

"What would you two like to do today?" Germany asked the two, then took a sip of his coffee.

"Something awesome?" Prussia asked as he came up from the basement with Gilbird on his head.

"Bruder, do you know when to be quiet?" Germany interrupted his brother and shut him up.

"How about we play soccer?" Heike asked.

"Football. It's called football," Prussia said.

"No, that's the sport where you tackle people and score touchdowns," Heike said. "Oh, wait, that's right. You guys don't have American football here. Just soccer."

"Which we call football," Germany said, ending the short argument.

"I'm fine with playing," Alexander agreed. "2-on-2?"

"The awesome me and West vs you two?" Prussia inquired. Gilbird chirped loudly.

The two children shook their heads, and so did Germany. "Something...fairer, Bruder," he told Prussia.

"How about me and Vatti versus you and Alexander?" Heike suggested. Everyone nodded at that, and Gilbird chirped again.

"I'll be down in a few minutes," Germany yelled down while running upstairs into his room. Prussia went back into his basement to get something as well.

Heike and Alexander went outside to the backyard. The yard was large and had more than enough room for a good-sized pitch.

"What do you suppose they're getting, Alex?" Heike asked.

"Probably their gear," Alex responded. "They always seem to have something extra up their sleeve."

The question was answered soon enough. Germany came out first in a white FIFA Germany uniform, number 13, with "L. Beilschmidt" on the back. He was holding a soccer ball. He threw the ball up in the air then headed it and started doing all sorts of tricks. Unfortunately, he didn't see his brother in the black Germany FIFA uniform behind him. Prussia stole the ball and passed it to Alexander who, stopped it. Germany turned around to see Prussia in his number 98 "G. Beilschmidt" jersey. When Alexander looked oddly at Prussia jersey, Prussia just laughed and responded, "99 is too cliché."

"Well, let's start the game shall, we?" Germany asked. Gilbird flew over to an area by the pitch they were using and started chirping loudly in support of his owner. Aster, Blackie, and Berlitz just sat down in the sun and watched the four people play their match of soccer.

Early on, Germany and Heike had better control and more time with the ball. Germany scored the first goal on a header after a corner. Prussia and Alexander soon came back, scoring about five minutes later.

Eventually, the four all got tired and stopped playing. Prussia and Alexander had lost the game by one goal to Germany and Heike, 2-1. Heike had scored the final goal after taking the ball most of the way herself.

"I was still awesome!" Prussia shouted to his brother. Germany shook his head.

"Mein Gott, bruder. Will you ever grow up?"

"Never, West!" Prussia laughed. "Kesesesesese~"

Heike and Alexander stood there, watching their father and uncle argue. Eventually, Prussia was put into a headlock by Germany.

"Weeeeesssstttt," Prussia groaned. "Stooooooooooooppppppp." After hearing this, Alexander got between the two of them and talked some reason into the brothers.

"Vater," Alexander began. "You should stop. You're going to kill him."

Germany released his albino brother and sighed. "Ja, I guess you're right. Even though I've wanted to do that a few times. I am his brother, after all."

"You just can't handle my awesomeness, West!" Prussia just ran back into the house and down to the basement, with Gilbird following him and chirping loudly.

"Mein Gott," Germany said. "I'm not sure who's more annoying, Gilbird or Pierre. Both of them are bad…but Bruder's definitely worse than those two, though..."

"I thought you would say Italy or Prussia," Alexander replied.

"Well, it's hard to be patient with either of them," Germany stated. "But I've gotten used to it a bit...but used to Italy more than to Prussia."

Germany's phone rang after this comment. "Let me guess…" he sighed. "Yup." He reluctantly picked up the phone. "What is it this time?"

"DOITSU! DOITSU!" Italy shouted on the other end of the line. Germany winced. "I think England went right by my place just now. Only it didn't look exactly like England. He was wearing pink and-" Germany suddenly cut him off.

"Well, stay away from him," he told Italy. "And make sure that you inform some of the others. I'll do so as well."

"Okay…" Italy slowly responded.

"By the way, that wasn't England," Germany added. "He's much worse. And I know that you understand what I'm talking about."

"Mm-hm," Italy replied. "I know who he is now. He seemed to smile a bit too much to be England anyway."

"Glad you noticed and stayed inside, then. I have to go now, though. Thank you for informing me."

"Okay. Bye, Doitsu!"

Germany pressed the "End" button on his iPhone 5S. The phone had a German flag design on its case.

"You kids go upstairs," he said to his children, who did so. "I need to make a few more calls."

"Don't interrupt my awesome nap of awesomeness!" Prussia yelled from the basement.

"I will, Bruder," Germany told him, "because it's important." He went down the stairs to speak to his brother.
