Chapter 14: Brothers' and Sisters' Day, oh my.

"Al, you've been on your iPhone for the past four hours. What's so interesting?" Canada complained, leaning towards his brother to take a closer look. The American didn't even notice him as the Canadian spied silently.

Until the American finally noticed the Canadian breathing on him. "Whoa! I did not see you there!" Canada just blinked at the current App America was on, displaying various pictures each time the American refreshed the page.

"…Instagram?"

"The best app ever!"

"…What is that?" Canada questioned. He never heard of the so called 'popular' app. His brother gasped in astonishment.

"You never heard of Instagram?"

Canada didn't see what the big deal was, "Yeah? So?"

"Bro, no wonder you're invisible to the world! This is like the new twitter! The new tumblr, kinda, tumblr is still cool. And the new Facebook!" America explained, jumping out of his chair and shoving the iPhone in his brother's face Canada jumped back a few inches from the sudden impact of the phone.

He snatched the phone from America. He blinked, "You just post pictures?"

"Yup! But you can add a little message to it. From it you can get followers and you can follow people as well." The Canadian nodded, examining the pictures that made it to the popular page.

"Hm, seems interesting."

"Hell yea, it is. You should get one! I'll follow you~" America said persuasively, poking his brother on the cheek repeatedly. "And it's free~"

Canada just kept staring at the multiple pictures that stood out to him; a majority of the users were creative. Others just seemed to be begging for attention. He handed the phone back to his brother. Canada, then, dug his hand through his coat pocket in search for his own phone.

America had the cheesiest yet geekiest smile stuck on his face as Canada did this.

Once Canada found the app, he downloaded it. Second thoughts began to burrow through his mind. Was it really such a great app? Was he really going to post pictures? He chewed on his bottom lip in thought.

He gave in; he went in and joined the bandwagon. He was surprised no one took "Canada".

America was already sucked into the world of Instagram when his brother had signed up. "Oh! Oh! I totally forgot! Germany and Italy are competiting against each other today!"

"What?"

"This picture, that some random girl took, got onto the popular page and it's Feli and Lovi- y'know just see the picture while I turn on the TV!" Alfred then jumped away to the television room while he threw his iPhone to Canada. Canada barely caught it.

The picture, however, displayed the two Italy brothers both have their hands around each others' shoulders as they looked out into the field.

Of course this girl had to name the photo, 'Bromance' to it. Canada was very confused on this whole 'fangirl' problem the countries have been ranting about lately. Most countries had their boundaries and others were completely ignoring each other. He didn't know why but this picture reminded him of it, because America did mention it was a very popular app. It just reminded him of it. Pushing the thought out of his head, he heard his brother exclaiming to come join him.

He did want to see how the match would end up. He knew Germany never won a competition like this against Italy. This could be interesting. He reached for a potato chip as he watched Italy's players race to the goal with Germany's players trying to block.

"Oh, here's your phone by the way." America quickly craned his eyes to his phone and took it.

"The picture is weird…I mean, these kind of people are everywhere all of a sudden…" America suddenly started, staring at the picture of the two Italy brothers. Canada flickered his eyes in bafflement. America was suddenly serious? Canada only saw him serious during war or tough situations going on in his country. It just amused him to see him like this right now.

"Ever since Hungary brought Fanfiction up, it sorta caused a lot of chaos. And now Japan won't speak to me, neither will England, The Bad Touch trio whatever is more perverted than ever, and Russia thinks I'm blackmailing everyone. But it's fucking Anonymous Fish, all because of these freaking fangirls!" As America ranted, Canada wasn't getting the whole situation.

"Oh, you probably don't know much about it, don't you?" Canada just shook his head, trying to regain attention on the game. He couldn't, this topic was actually intriguing him.

"I mean, I went to the meeting where Hungary told everyone to come but after that I just lost interest in everyone's gossip."

"….Have you ever went on Fanfiction?"

"No."

"Good. Don't even lay a finger on it."

"…"

"It's more perverted than France." Canada was now more intrigued.

"Wow, I didn't know something could be more perverted than him…"

America still continued as the show went onto a commercial break, "But that wasn't the only site, we discovered some more that had us in it. And all of us knew we're on many sites. That's why we don't even dare to go on there. The thought of humiliating ourselves as a 'couple'- it's just really…disgusting to me. I can't imagine myself with some people like that. I just never thought about-" America shook his head rapidly, "Fangirls can't get the picture that we're civilized."

Canada didn't know his brother can be so deep, as he would call it. He didn't know he was so mindful over the internet. "But Instagram, I'm becoming worried about. I've only joined it a few days ago but when I saw this picture it just gave me a worried feeling. So I just made another conversation about the game, because thank the lords it was playing, but I didn't want to tell this whole crap load of stuff-"

"It's fine…I get it. I understand." Canada stopped him. "Let me just…recap."

"Sure…"

"So there's Fanfiction that Hungary introduced. Some countries checked it out and most disliked it. So most people stay away while this person creates this…blackmailing thing called 'Anonymous fish'? Yes?"

"Exactly and Russia thinks I own it."

"So everyone is trying to find out who this person is?"

"Well, not everyone…yet I guess. A majority though." America answered, popping in another potato chip into his mouth. Those chips were addicting to him, it gave him less things to worry about. Indulging got rid of his stress as well as talking it out with a close friend or family member of his, like Canada.

Canada inhaled, "It's just fangirls posting these. We're immortal, they're not. Plus, they're just pictures, fan videos, fan fiction, whatever. They love us so-"

"And they love us with other countries, plus those things are going to stay on the internet forever! And we're going to have to live with it!"

"Come on, we're better than this. A hundred years from now, we're going to be laughing it off. Don't worry about Instagram, you're going to be fine." America nodded, trying to reassure himself that he would get over this. He knew his brother was great at solving problems, but this just didn't seem strong enough to him.

If the Italy brothers were hit, he was bound to be, too.

oOo

Before the game…

"Alright, fratello, we're going to be supporting our players to kick German ass, alright?" Northern Italy smiled smugly, although he didn't like how his elder brother called his best friend he knew he was going to win.

They always won against Germany.

Romano took a swig of water as he threw an arm around his brother, "See that goal?"

"Si."

"Our football players are going to kick that ball right in there number amount of times, and we're going to win and have the glory of winning." Romano explained, smiling conceitedly at the goal as he held onto his brother. Feliciano swung an arm around his brother too as they both gazed onto the field where their talented players will be on in just a few moments.

Meanwhile, two girls just happened to be seeing this 'bromantic' pose out in the seats. The two girls jumped from their seats as one frantically pointed out to the two of brothers standing there. "Oh my god! Quick! Instagram it!"

"I know! I know! Lemme just zoom in!" her friend got the picture, clear as glass. They could see every detail of the picture. She smiled smugly at her work, the Italy brothers clad in their soccer uniforms with their country name in big, bold letters screaming 'ITALIA' on the backs of their shirts. "Ohohoho, I'm going to get a lot of followers from this~" The girl felt a tap on her shoulder; she shifted her head to the person who supposedly tapped on her.

"You like Hetalia, too?" A girl about her age asked, curiously asked.

"Are you kidding? We love Hetalia!" The three girls instantly clicked together, automatically pronouncing themselves best friends after a chat of how much they adored the show. The girl, not only did her father bring her here, was here to get ideas for her next fanfiction on her favorite pairing.

"Germancest?"

"I don't know why I like it, I just do." The two girls looked at eachother.

"We can help~"

"We get our inspiration from so many things! Fanart, videos, songs, other books and fanfictions." The girl who sat behind them smiled graciously.

"Why thank you."

oOo

"God dammit." After numerous attempts to try to get her brother out of his room, she brought out her back up. She didn't want to come to this, but it was necessary if she had to get what she wanted. Her fingers grazed over to handle of her knife, her hands clasping around it as she started slicing through the door.

The knife screeched an ear breaking sound as it drove down the door. She could hear her brother whimpering. "Big brother~ We're going to be together soon, aren't you happy?"

"No! Go away! Go away, Natalia!"

She kind of liked it when he screamed her name. "Yes~ keep saying my name~" She punctured a hole through the door, already seeing her brother back away. Her hand snaked towards the lock, her dainty fingers turning the lock. Click. The door opened.

Her iPhone ran out of battery and died.

"God dammit! I was just getting to the good part!" she whined, getting out of her bed to find her charger. "I swear America needs to make things solar powered, that would make my life easier…"

While in the midst of rummaging for her charger, her sister had entered the house by knocking then entering without approval. Belarus was surprised at the sudden visit. "Oh god, my back." She heard her sister complain. Belarus always ignored her sister's complaints on her back and her breast size. It was like Ukraine was trying to get Belarus's attention.

"Ah, hello, Belarus." Belarus murmured a hello to her sister. Where did she put that charger?

"Do you know where Russia is?"

'I wish he was on my bed…' "I thought you weren't allowed to see him?"

"No…well yes, I just wanted to drop off a gift for him. I haven't gave him something for so long and I kind of miss him." Ukraine explained as she dropped off a package on the dining table.

"Oh, what did you give him?"

She could feel Ukraine smile behind her back, Belarus felt automatically annoyed, "Just some of his favorite things~"

Belarus's interest piked, "Like?"

"Sunflowers." 'Okay…'

"Vodka." 'Like he doesn't have too much of it…'

"A scarf I made." 'Again with the like he doesn't have too much of it…'

"And I found his favorite thing when he was a little boy, his matryoshka collection~" Belarus then immediately turned to the basket in interest. This would give her a few ideas next time on what to give him for his birthday.

Although, there was a feeling this time where she felt a little jealous. Not because she couldn't give Russia anything but the fact that her sister trekked all the way here to just drop off a gift for Russia and not her little sister. It seemed stupid to her because at the same time she was hurting herself.

At the same time, Belarus didn't want Ukraine here; she wanted Russia all to herself and try to bond with him. But it just never worked.

"It…looks nice." Belarus said quietly, staring at the gift basket. Ukraine smiled at her work, still hoping her little brother would like it.

"Really?" Belarus thought she was pushing too much.

"…Yeah…" She still couldn't determine if her jealousy was for her sister making a gift or because she was jealous of her own sister herself.

Later that night, after the game, Canada decided to stay at his brother's house. America kindly found some blankets and pillows for his brother and helped him turn the living room couch into a bed, since he had no guest room in his New York home. After the two made the make-shift bed the two brothers bid good night.

However, Canada was going to stay up for a bit. He wanted to check out this Fanfiction site. Pulling out his iPhone, he tapped on the Safari icon to get into the internet and Google searched the website; he forgot if it was .com or .net.

He remembered the show he was 'practically in' was in Anime. Now the show made it to 4th popular Anime on the site. He was nervous now; his hands slightly shook as he entered the listings of stories. He was surprised on the many stories there were and also how many his brother was in.

He just searched himself and he was pissed off at first. "Really? Me committing suicide? The hell?" Really now.

"I'm actually kind of happy that I'm not always remembered, it leaves me as a peaceful country. No war threats, nothing. People don't get it, sheesh." He complained quietly as he scrolled down some more. There were stories of him and America as little kids with France and England portrayed as parents, which he soon realized what 'FACE' meant. Others was self-centric with him still thinking of suicide.

'I'm not suicidal! How many times do I have to say it?'

By then, he understood why everyone was so scared of this site. They paired you up with the most random person ever.

And the person you know the most.

AmeCan and PruCan.

His new fear. He couldn't sleep that night with the mental images damaging his brain.

oOo

A/N: As you can tell, I'm fucking in love with Instagram. And I haven't been using it for 24 hours yet. X'D I only have three pictures up but I'm "gennathefrenchfry" all lower case.

I just keep loving this puppy on there :D IT'S SSOOOO CUUTTEEE. Follow da0da. It's the cutest puppy ever. I'm serious.

ANYWAY. Anybody watching UEFA lately? Germany and Italy are competiting tomorrow. GERMANY AND ITALY.

LOOOOL

So in celebration I wrote a little thing in here. I did make a one-shot and was about to post it but then I got the idea from Instagram and decided to connect those together. So yea. I just did a time skip. And how fitting it was because the two Italy brothers versing the two German brothers, and found themselves on Instagram. Now those three fangirls are going help destroy- I mean help get the countries together. Out of the possibly millions of fangirls that are trying to do that.

So I didn't do the Asian family, but I will soon. It would just drag this chapter if I did. Also, I'm clicking things together because I don't want to keep adding and adding. It gets repetitive after awhile. So thank god for Social Media Apps. I also added a little BelarusxRussiaxUkraine in there, then Canada discovering why America was so freaked out.

:D

oOo

I will reply to your reviews soon, I just have so much in my life with family and vacations and whatnot. I sincerely thank you all!
