ElsaBelgium: Yay for chapter 4! Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN HETALIA AXIS POWERS sadly...

Oconnella: Hello everyone! This is our debut story so please review! ^_^

I opened my eyes again, and saw a familiar face. I gasped. It was Gilbert. He leaned in over me, and whispered, "It's all over now..." He drew back his fist to hit me, when -

"Wake up, Tomoyo-san! You were screaming in your sleep!"

I sat up in bed and opened m eyes for real this time, to see a worried Nanase and Fuyuki. "Please be quiet, Tomoyo-san," pleaded Nanase. "We just got Ludwig-san to sleep. He's been worried all night and today."

I nodded, then tentatively lay back on my mountain of pillows supporting me. "Is he alright?" I inquired, concerned.

"He's fine, don't worry," Fuyuki reassured me. "We also forced him to eat lunch."

"Ha ha! You guys rock," I said with a laugh.

They both blushed and put a hand behind their head. "It was nothing," they said in unison. Noticing that, they both turned away from each other, embarrassed.

"Aw, c'mon! Don't be shy!" I said, getting out of bed and giving them both a hug, therefore forcing them to hug.

Um, why was I acting like a psycho?

"You're high on the painkillers," Fuyuki sighed, as I slipped out of the hug, pushed them together, and sat down on my bed again, giggling to myself.

"I'll t-tell them to give you a lesser dose," Nanase said, breaking away from Fuyuki and rushing out of the room.

"You see what you did?" I slurred. "You made 'er LEAVE." I laughed at the absurdity of it all. I was too out of it to notice that Fuyuki looked downcast, and gave me a glare.

"Are you looking at me?" I challenged. "ARE YOU LOOKING AT ME?"

"...no..."

By the time Nanase and a nurse came back into the room, I was out of bed again, standing right in front of him, one hand on my hip and the other pointing at him.

"For the last time I wasn't looking at you! Nana, please help..."

"Yeah, Nana, back me up!"

The nurse came in and swiftly injected medicine into my arm. Within minutes, I began to feel better.

And more self-conscious.

"S-s-sorry about that, guys," I mumbled. They sighed in relief, and took their original seats beside the bed. I climbed back into the bed, and said, "Hey, I'm starting to feel sore..."

"That's because you're on less pain medicine, and you shouldn't be exerting yourself," explained Nanase.

"Okay," I muttered.

Just then, Ludwig walked into the room.

"Tomoyo, I'm glad you're doing all right. I heard the story from the people eavesdropping outside. (Specifically Kiku, Heracles, Takashi, and Suzuran)."

"Oh, that?" I said, chagrined. "They were...eavesdropping? Jerks."

"Ludwig...why?" a familiar voice asked from outside the room.

"Uh, it was the truth?" he responded.

"That's not a good reason." Said Suzuran's loud voice.

"Whatever," I said. "Can you guys go and leave me to sleep in peace?"

There were some mumbles and shuffling feet grew softer as they walked away.

I sighed and got back into bed. I exhaled and fell asleep.

Ludwig's POV

I sighed and went back to sit next to Tomoyo. "Why did she wake up anyway?" I asked, turning back to Nanase and Fuyuki. They looked uncomfortable but Fuyuki answered me.

"She was screaming in her sleep."

I nodded. She was bound to have nightmares after what she went through. As long as I was there to comfort her...

I yawned as my eyes fluttered open. I sat up and looked around. No one was here. The doctor came in with a biohazard bag. "Here," He said, placing the bag beside my bed. "Change into this. You're being discharged. Your friends are waiting outside when you're done." He exited. I blinked and changed quickly into one of my outfits that I had brought on this trip. I winced when I extended my arm, but other than that, I was fine.

I ran out of the room.

"Hey guys! Let's get going!"

Everyone smiled except Ludwig, who simply held out his hand for me. I took it and walked out of the hospital and back into the trailer.

Home sweet home.

I sat next to Ludwig, Suzuran and Takashi sat behind us as Nana-chan and Fuyuki sat in front of us.

Heracles was in the passenger seat, arguing over the map with Kiku, who was driving yet again.

"No...I said, ...west...and then-

"Well, I said east."

"I love you the most, daze~."

"No, I love YOU the most."

"..."

"..Um..."

I squeezed Ludwig's hand and asked Kiku,

"Hey, how many hours will it take us to get to Tokyo?"

"DON'T. START. THAT. NOW."

"Ok, ok, Kiku-san, Lighten up, Tomoyo-chan just got out of the hospital."

"I'm not in the mood, Takashi-san."

"Hey guys, did you ever realize that this trailer looks like a pedophile van?"

"Uh...nein?"

"It's the pedo van!" I said, randomly putting my fist in the air.

Suzuran laughed while Nanase smiled. Ludwig and Takashi gave me weird looks. I simply beamed back at them, especially Ludwig. He blushed but smiled back. Wow, I never thought I could make him smile.

I could already tell that this was going to be a good day.
