I'm so sorry this has taken so long! I really didn't want to end this and didn't know how to end it, and my laptop has finally gone and I couldn't type for a 2 weeks.

I have to say a big thank you to my best friend/beta for the magnificent idea on how to end this fic, and of course for being my beta.

I don't own Hetalia

Please read and review!

Adventure too large.

Madeline stood staring out at Amelia and Arthur. She could clearly see that they were in love, the look in Amelia's eyes was something Madeline had never seen in her sisters eyes before and yet she somehow still knew what it was.

Madeline felt a tap on her shoulder; she turned around to see who wanted her attention. Ruby red eyes that sparkled like stars in the sky a small playful smile graced his face, like the man was up to something, not unusual there. But what really got Madeline was that Gilbert was smiling, not smirking, not grinning, just a smile and Madeline hasn't seen that too often.

'He looks handsome smiling, smirking and grinning suits him more' Madeline decided.

"Yes Gilbert?" She asked softly, still staring at his face. She didn't know when that smile will disappear, so she had to soak it up as much as she could.

"May I have a dance with this gorgeous woman?" He asked as he held out his hand for her to take, still smiling at her.

Madeline blushed, no matter how many times he complemented her she would blush so much that the red was even a darker shade of red roses that her father loved so much. Nodding slightly she gently took his hand and allowed him to lead her into the middle of the dance floor.

Madeline looked up and was flabbergasted at the huge stain glass window, it had all sorts of fairies', of different colors and sizes in a forest type theme background. Madeline wondered what sort of fairies there where up on that glass painting, the colors where so bright the color showed on the reflective flooring in an odd pattern of light.

Madeline then looked back into those crimson eyes she fell in love with, and the owner that she now couldn't think of what she'd do without him. An idea suddenly struck her, a song that Amelia and her mother taught them when they were young, she hoped Gilbert knew it too. She swallowed hoping she wouldn't make a fool of herself, she took a deep breath.

"We were strangers, starting out on a journey" She looked at their feet, she might as well continue. "Never dreaming, what we'd have to go through, now here we are, I'm suddenly standing, at the beginning with you." There she had done it.

A pale finger lifted her face up, slowly meeting Gilbert's eyes; he smiled again at her, before doing what she'd never expect.

"No one told me I was going to find you, unexpected, what you did to my heart" Gilbert actually thought he'd never fall in love, what with how people treated him. But this strong, beautiful girl was now his whole world and he was never letting her go without a fight. "When I lost hope, you were there to remind me, this is the start."

Madeline smiled happily, so he did know it and he wanted to sing it, that made her happy, so she continued, this time both of them singing.

"And life is a road and I wanna keep going, love is a river, I wanna keep flowing. Life is a road, now and forever, wonderful journey." Life was defiantly a hard road, but now they had each other to face any challenges that came at them, they could do it together.

"I'll be there when the world stops turning. I'll be there when the storm is through, in the end I wanna be standing, at the beginning with you" They didn't care what they have to go because they loved each other, and they would stand by each other no matter what.

Amelia had seen Gilbert and her sister dancing so she dragged Arthur back inside and grinned as she heard the song, she and Maddie knew the song really well and she turned to Arthur.

"Another dance Artie?" She asked him, wondering if he even knew the song.
He looked at her before nodding, at the nod Amelia had instantly grabbed his hand and pulled him into the middle of the hall.

"We were strangers on a crazy adventure," Amelia started the second verse, she actually now saw that this verse actually fitted her and Arthur.

"Never dreaming, how our dreams would come true," Arthur sang softly, he couldn't remember where he had heard the song but he still knew it, he remembered it from when he was a child.

"Now here we stand, unafraid of the future, at the beginning with you," They had sung at the same time since that was how the song went.

They had sung to the rest of the song Maddie and Gil had joined in with it too and once they had finished they turned to each other.

"Didn't realize you guys knew that song," Amelia said, she looked at Gilbert and Arthur.
Arthur and Gilbert shrugged, they couldn't remember where they heard it, but they heard the lyrics, so that didn't matter.

Arthur tapped Madeline on the shoulder to get the attention, Madeline turned to him and gave him a slightly questioning look.

"Yes Arthur?" She asked him.

"Can you keep Amelia distracted while I go talk to your dad?" Arthur questioned in a hushed tone so that Amelia didn't hear.

"Sure, I can keep my sister busy," Madeline replied back in the same hushed tone and then walked over to Amelia, turning her around so she wasn't facing Arthur and so she couldn't see whatever he was planning.

Arthur then walked over to Francis, he wondered if this was a good idea, but then quickly shook his head, he had to do this, so he confidently walked up to Francis, and stopped in front of him.

"Is there something you needed Mon ami?" Francis asked him as soon as he noticed that Arthur was there, he wondered what he needed.

"I need to ask you something, something important, it's to do with Amelia," Arthur half explained. Maybe he would get the hint from that.

"What about my daughter?" Francis questioned again, not getting what Arthur was trying to ask.

"I want to ask your daughter to marry me, but I want to do things traditionally and ask you for her hand," Arthur then fully explained, hoping Francis would say yes.

Francis was in shock, he didn't know what to say. Arthur Kirkland wanted to marry his eldest daughter? He didn't know how to answer. Francis then looked over at Amelia and saw how happy she looked. He also saw the love in her eyes for Arthur, and then he knew how to reply back to Arthur. He turned his gaze back to Arthur and smiled at him.

"Oui mon ami."
