I swear today is my day for updating this story. *Cheers*

People actually read my random rant? OMG 10 POINTS TO YOU!

I wasn't originally going to do a sickbed/hospital scene but I decided that it would work for what I wanted to do. People were asking me if Japan was okay. I felt I should explain what happened before I do the weird time warp thing that I want to do.

Reviews make me happy and flames allow me to roast marshmallows for smores so please no flaming! * not that it's ever an issue BUT!*

Eva peered into the pale, sleeping face of her boyfriend, or lover whichever you prefer. They had taken Kiku to the nearest hospital, which was in Phoenix, Arizona. America and the others were staying in a hotel while Eva was staying with her grandparents, who lived nearby.

"Miss, there are people here to see you," a nurse poked her head through the doorway.

Eva brushed Kiku's hair out of his closed eyes and followed the nurse out into the waiting room. She was too tired to think of who these people might be.

"EVA!"

Eva let out a strangled cry as a boy with blonde hair tackle hugged her.

"Eddie!" Eva hugged him back ruffling his short cropped hair with one hand. She saw her parents standing with her grandparents. Emily was with them, but instead of smiling like the others, she was staring at the wall, shell-shocked from the looks of it.

Eva let go of Eddie and went up to her sister. Emily didn't even flinch when she rested a hand on her shoulder.

"Emily, you okay?" Eva asked.

"She's been like that for the last couple of hours. The nurse told us that she was probably in shock. She'll be okay soon," assured her father.

Suddenly a familiar blonde nation ran into the room.

"Eva! EVA!"

Eva jerked around to face America, "WHAT ALFRED?"

America looked hurt, "I just wanted to know if there was any word on Kiku."

"Alfred," England came up behind him, shaking his head, "go easy on her, she's had a long past couple of days."

Eva looked at America, "No I'm sorry I yelled at you."

America just grinned, "That's okay you're still my favorite citizen!" he put an arm around her, only to have it slapped away.

"Alfred, what have I told you about that," she wagged a finger at him, trying to appear threatening.

America grinned and pretended to be ashamed, "Not to do it."

"Glad we have that cleared up," Eva turned back to her sister, who seemed to be coming out of her trance.

"Eva! He's woken up," a nurse called to her. Eva hurried to follow her, the two nations and her family behind her.

Eva glanced back at England, "Where are the others?"

"Oh, they'll be here soon enough," said England tiredly.

The group stopped outside Kiku's door.

"One at a time, we don't want to overwhelm him," cautioned the nurse. She opened the door and Eva stepped inside.

Kiku was sitting up, his back against some pillows. He was looking through a Shonen Jump magazine, looking bored.

"Find anything interesting?" Eva asked. He shook his head and tossed it on the bedside table.

"It's all old stuff," he said simply.

"It's a hospital," she said rationally.

He laughed and reached for her hand.

"Where are the others?" he asked.

Eva smiled, "they're outside. They wouldn't let more than one person in here at a time."

"That's probably a good thing. I don't really want to deal with the likes of Prussia just yet."

Eva laughed for the first time in days, "are you sure you're okay?"

He nodded curtly, "I'm fine. Actually I've been meaning to talk to you about something. Something important."

Eva cocked her head, "go on."

"When all of this is over," Kiku's next words came out in a big rush, "willyoumarryme?"

Eva wasn't sure if she had heard that right.

"Sorry?" she asked.

Kiku's face was red, "I'm asking you to marry me."

Eva grinned, "Of course I will silly,"

"Even though I'm a nation?"

Eva kissed him softly.

"Even though you're a nation."

And there's the chapter!
