I'm sorry it so short! I want to update it to let you all know that I'm still alive and writing. Uni takes a lot of time and I have some personal issues going on, but i want to update all my stories and then I'll feel better.
~Enjoy~
Ivan took a moment to think before responding.
"To be honest, I am not too sure. My heart has been silent for a long time."
"…It also falls out sometimes right?" Matthew said hesitantly as he remembered a meeting where Russia went to stand up to say something and 'pfft'. A dark spot of red formed on his chest and there was a bump over his heart. He had to open his jacket to fix himself. Matthew remembered because Russia had been sitting on his lap, Matthew managed to get of the chair just in time to see it happen. America had laughed after being grossed out and reactions from other nations varied.
"Sometimes."
Matthew nodded before pushing away to cough into his elbow. He groaned, he knew that he was getting better faster than he would on his own, but it still wasn't fast enough for him! He laid back down and allowed Russia to pull him closer so Matthew was pressed against Ivan's chest. He silently sighed and thought.
Maybe it falls out to remind you that you do still have a heart, the ability to love... For someone to hold it and protect it…searching for someone to heal the damage that centuries of bloodshed and terror did to you-
Matthews's thoughts were disrupted by Ivan's voice.
"Let's not talk about that today, perhaps tomorrow da?"
"Okay." Matthew nodded against Ivan's chest and hesitantly asked, "C-could you…rub my back please? To help me sleep?"
Ivan smiled, "Of course." Ivan slightly turned onto his side and reached over Matthew to gently message Matthew's back. He felt Matthew's body relaxing against his own. He continued his actions for a while until he knew Matthew was asleep. He looked at his sleeping angel and kissed his temple, careful to not wake him up. Leaning back down, Ivan rested his forehead absent Matthew's and closed his eyes to think before falling asleep. He didn't think that Matthew would be well enough to attend the last meeting, nor did he want to leave Matthew alone.
Deciding that he would make a call to his boss the next day, he would try and see if he could get an extra seat on the jet for his return home.
Once again, I know it's short. The next chapter will be longer. THat and i just finished it in my philosophy class...
