North Dakota: Miss Author why is Edward dressed like Edward Cullen and has Nova dressed like Bella?
What the Hell?! ETHAN ISAAC WILLIAMS NO TWILIGHT IN MY FANFICS! *races to Canada*
N. Dakota: Okay Miss Hungary she's gone but we don't have much time before she gets back.
Hungary: It's alright dear we have just enough time just start typing.
He's been rustling around in her bushes for nearly twenty minutes and Pennsylvania has finally had enough of the albino. She walks up and places her hands on her hips her German accent raising to the surface, "Prussia vhat are you doing?"
Her brown eyes met his red, "Keskeskes…nothing." He stands as she rolls her eyes, "So where is Victoria?" He asks following the female state on to the back porch somewhat surprised it took her that long to confront him.
She sits sighing, "My daughter is away for the summer and really Prussia if you want to see her all you have to do is call. You don't have to sneak around in my bushes."
"Gilbert."
"What?"
He sits across from her but he looks away, "You don't have to call me by my awesome country name." He forces a cough, "If you don't want to…even if it is awesome."
Handing him a lemonade she smiles, "Alright Gilbert and if you vant…you can call me Mara." Now she looks away feeling her face go a light red. She's not sure why she just told him her human name so she just sips her own lemonade looking out at her open backyard.
"I've never seen your state could you show me around?" He smiles at her wishing he had a beer instead.
She stands, "Well ve could go on a hike." She smirks, "If you promise not to try to invade my vital region that is." Sylvia laughs as she walks away towards the start of the trail at the edge of her back yard.
The Prussian is surprised for a moment before he races to catch up with her, "Now who said anything about invading you vital regions?"
She gives him a sideways glance before just chuckling, "Gilbert I'm not a stupid woman. My father's told me for years about you… and your little invasions."
It surprises her when he takes her hand, "I know you're not stupid Mara." He instantly lets go his face turning a soft red as he walks ahead, "And besides the awesome me just wants to see you state."
Something in her heart aches when he does say her name and it almost makes her shutter. She tries to force it out of her mind; he isn't and never will be her David. He is Prussia, he is Gilbert…he's just a friend and nothing more, she thinks as she walks slowly behind him. In fact the only things they have in common are the accents and the white hair.
He turns back around when he reaches the top of the hill to see green lush woods surrounding them, "This is awesome, not as awesome as me but still." He starts to laugh as she reaches the summit and slowly takes off her sweatshirt. He suddenly stops seeing her now in a light purple tank top, "What are those?"
Sylvia sighs, "Boobs Gilbert." She folds her arms, "Smartass."
He moves closer, "No not them, that." He reaches out and gently touches her deep shoulder scar and while normally she would push him away she places her hand over his, "One of my scars."
"From the Civil War?" He asks as he looks down to see a small grouping of red roundish scars on her wrists as well as smaller nicks and scars moving up both her arms.
She shakes her head, "No this one's newer…I got it in 2001." She lets his hand slowly work down her arm feeling the shiver of his touch move down her spine as his hand stops at her wrist and the five small scars.
"And these?"
The state frowns thinking back to that horrible morning in Lancaster County, "…2006." She doesn't want to talk about it anymore but as she tries to break free he holds tight to her wrist, "Gil please let go."
He quickly does what he's told but he locks eyes with her before he reaches out as he wipes away a single tear starting to fall down her cheek with his thumb resting his hand on her face, "I'm sorry."
She rests her hand on his smiling sweetly at him, "Don't be. My people are strong and if they can forgive I can too." She's surprised how gentle his eyes have become as he pulls her in closer with his free hand.
"Now are you going to kiss me or am I going to have to lie to everybody?" He smirks as he pulls her up slightly to his lips.
Before she kisses him she glides her arms over his neck, "Lie? That doesn't sound to awesome Gilbert and I wouldn't want you to that." His hand move down her back slowly as they finally kiss, she feels the spark instantly before they pull away and he rest his forehead on hers, "But sir I'm still not going to let you invade my vital regions."
The white haired man smirks, "You sure about that?"
Her laugh is sweet, "Gilbert that's not exactly my ass your feeling right now and I'm never without it."
Although he knows what it is he doesn't move his hand away looking deep into her eyes, "That's fine with me…for now."
She sighs but kisses him again before turning and walking down the hill, "We'll see Gilbert…" She doesn't look back but he can tell she's smiling the entire time back down to the house.
As his eyes fall on her hex tattoo in between her shoulder blades and he smirks she's almost as awesome as he is, almost.
What the Hell is this? North Dakota I swear you are nearly as bad as Hungary!
N. Dakota: But it was meant to be, right Miss Hungary?
Hungary: Of course it was
Damn it Hungary, don't encourage her. North Dakota go play shipping somewhere else.
