I don't own Hetalia okay? I don't have much else for this opening. Anyway, enough of this A/N, on with the fic!
December 25th 1923
(from the journal of Matthew Williams)
Eliza had invited Katy and I over to her and Roderich's house for Christmas. Originally it was Katy who invited them to ours, but Eliza did not want to take Maria out in the cold. It's her first child and she's very protective. Says her daddy is a 'delicate little thing' and that Maria is just as delicate. Yeah, sure, I mean he may have not been so much before the war and yeah he may have been tougher before that. I mean I didn't have a limp in cold and wet before the war, so I guess I will have to give Eliza the benefit of the doubt. And as Katy so rightfully put it, we had been to this house many times. But frankly I think she missed having another family with her and since we are friends with them, it was the best option we had. She was quite busy with making gifts for them. She's quite proud of her knitting. Actually made Roderich a sweater with some music notes on it. She made me one with a maple leaf. She's gotten quite good over the years and quite fast. I don't know how she does it sometimes.
But after dinner we headed back home and Katy had given me one final present. She said it was from Mr. Seward and in it was a letter and a park ranger uniform. It had said that I was due to start in June of next year as the season picked up and that he had connections out there so we could get a house. Frankly if I were to have my pick, I want some nice cabin like thing in the woods, part of why I moved to Canada in the first place. Seemed much cleaner than the city Al and I grew up in. I know the mountain air out there should be good for Louise and Chadwick too. And from what Katy was telling me we would be much closer to Al and Natalya than we are now. I frankly would try to talk them into visiting up there. Back before all this whole war crap Wayne and I went for an expedition up to some of the more norther parts of Ontario for a summer and it was nice. I miss things like that. I knew what and who I was in nature. I have a feeling like this will allow me to have that and spend time with my wife and children. This cannot stay how it is right now. It's too much. I have something to look forward too.
So how was that? Good? Bad? Short? Long? Let me know in a review. I don't quite know how long this one will be just yet as the other I had a more defined plan. But the way it is going this one will be longer than the other. One is over a few years, this a whole decade practically. Anyway, remember to read (well you just did) and to review. Ciao for now,
