Night
From BlueberryTeaLove
(Romania's POV)
"Romania, Romania."
I shift as I woke; sleepily rubbing my eyes. I sat up and scratched the back of my head. I blink my eyes to see England crouching by me.
"Romania, it's your shift." He says quietly. I stifle a yawn and stand up. I stretch, before making my way downstairs.
"Good night England." I mutter sleepily.
I don't even know where to start. I wander through the first floor of the house, thinking about where I could keep watch. I sigh, I guess the front porch will do. I walk outside and sat on the front porch, watching as the cooling breeze masks the eerie silence that befalls upon the forest.
To think, that we have been reduced to keeping watch. Our safety is getting thinner as we go along. How long will it be before it becomes too dangerous to even stay here? Then there's also the fact that we haven't told anyone else about this. We're keeping this a secret from the other nations, for their own safety.
I wonder how Bulgaria is doing? I haven't spoken to him in a while, nor have I checked my cellphone yet for any messages. That reminds me, I probably should. I take my cellphone out and skim through my messages, they are mostly from Bulgaria and a few others but there is one that stood out the most to me.
'Everyone, it's been a few days and I haven't seen mein bruder around. If anyone has seen him, let me know.' - Germany
Oh that's right. Prussia lives with Germany doesn't he? Hm. But I think he mentioned that Germany knows we found the Nordics...right? It's interesting how Germany didn't say anything to anyone. Maybe Prussia told him how dangerous it is now, who knows? Either way, no one else should know.
I hear soft whimpering from behind me. I turn to see Hanatamago emerge from the doggy door. She walks across to me and lies beside me, her whimpering soft and sad.
"What's wrong Hanatamago?" I ask. She turns to the house and looks up.
"Ah," I say knowingly. It seems like someone woke from a nightmare. Hanatamago paws at my pack and I pick her up, placing her in my lap.
"You really care about them, don't you Hanatamago?" Hanatamago barks quietly in reply; her tail wagging. I chuckle and pet the puppy on her head.
"I guess we're all worried huh? So I take it that's the reason why you're out here with me instead of inside?" I know it seems weird to ask, but animals have feelings and thoughts too. I'm sure Hanatamago just needed someone to talk to.
"You know Romania, just sitting outside is part of the 'don't go out alone' rule that we're having now."
I turn to see Prussia sitting by me, a loud yawn escaping his lips. I chuckle.
"Yeah, but I didn't know where else to keep watch. By the way Germany is worried about you."
"Oh really? I guess it's because my phone died when I told him that it's getting dangerous and that he shouldn't tell anyone else. He probably asked me some questions after that. But I wouldn't know because I have no cell phone battery. Pretty un-awesome if you ask me." He replies sleepily.
"Do you want to borrow my cell to tell Germany that you're alright?" Prussia thinks for a moment.
"Err, ja. It would be good. I shouldn't make West worry about me like this." I hand him my cell phone and he messages Germany.
"Danke." He says, handing me my phone.
"No problem."
The three of us sit in a comfortable silence, the only sound heard is the rustling in the trees. After a while, Prussia stands up.
"I think the awesome me is going to head back and sleep more before dawn comes. You should go inside too, for your own safety ja?" I stand up with a sleeping Hanatamago in my arms. She must have fallen asleep while I was talking to Prussia.
"Da. I'll go inside." Prussia nods and walks inside the house. I take one last look at the forest, before I head back inside. But I turn around, as I heard the faint sound of girlish giggling.
