The Awesomeness Of Uncle Denmark
"(Name), my favourite niece how about your Uncle Denmark tells you a little something huh?"
(Name) scrambled onto Denmark's lap as he slumped on the sofa; rubbing his red face in pain. It took him a while but he manage to spend the whole morning trying to wash the marker off. Thankfully for him, the marker wasn't permanent. When (Name) was fully settled on his lap, Denmark held the child so that she wouldn't fall. "What is it you want to tell me Uncle Denmark the awesome?" asks (Name). Denmark held (Name) close and said.
"(Name), I know you think it's funny but let's not draw on Uncle Denmark's face again okay?" He says seriously. He really had a hard time removing the scribbles of (insert stuff here) on his face.
"Okay Uncle Denmark the awesome!" Cries (Name) happily. Denmark smiles.
"Good because your Uncle doesn't know what to do if his perfection gets drawn on."
"What perfection? Are you planning to see a plastic surgeon?" Asks Norway, walking into the room. Denmark gasps.
"What are you talking about Norgie! My perfection is natural!" He cries. (Name) giggles and holds out her arms towards Norway.
"Carry me Uncle Norgie!" Norway gives a soft smile before picking (Name) up from Denmark's lap.
"Don't listen to him." Say Norway, "No one's perfect."
"Aw man! Can't you play along just this once Norway?" Asked Denmark. Norway frowns.
"Uncle Norgie." Speaks (Name). Norway turns to look at her. "Uncle Norgie, why is Uncle Denmark the awesome like this?" Upon hearing this, Denmark laughs.
"I've always been this awesome (Name)! I remember all the thing's I'd do..." (Name) squirms in Norway's arms slightly.
"Tell me Uncle Denmark! Tell me! Tell me the story!" She cries. Norway settled (Name) down and she ran to Denmark, tugging on his pant leg.
"Oh, are you going to tell a story Denmark?" Asks Finland. He and Sweden walked into the room and settled themselves opposite Denmark.
"Den telling a story? I wonder if this is going to be appropriate." Mutters Iceland as he too makes his way into the room. Norway sits by Iceland and stares at Denmark intently.
"Of course it's going to be appropriate! This is a story for (Name)!" Laughs Denmark, "It all starts long ago, where there was an awesome country named Denmark. He was the most awesome person in the world! Even more awesome that Prussia and America combined! Denmark kept going around doing awesome things and was praised for being awesome! No one could match his awesome badass skills and awesome good looks because he was perfect! Perfectly awesome! And-"
"Uncle Denmark?"
"Yeah?"
(Name) frowned slightly. "That's not a story." Denmark blinked in surprise.
"What are you talking about? Of course it's a story!" He retorts.
"No it's not." insisted (Name). "That's just you saying how awesome you are."
"She has a point." States Iceland. "Tell a better story."
"...Fine." Replies Denmark. He thinks for a moment before coming up with an idea. "How about I tell you about the time I caught your Uncle Norway nake-" Denmark was stopped by Norway strangling Denmark by his tie.
"You are to never mention that again." Says Norway darkly. (Name) giggled at her funny Uncles.
"Sexual tension~" sang Iceland quietly. Finland gasped and place his hands over (Name)'s ears.
"Ice! Don't say things like that in front of (Name)! She's only four!" cried Finland.
"Sexual tension?" asks (Name). "What's that?" Denmark then manages to break free from Norway's grasp.
"It's what your Mommy and Daddy have between them!" Explains Denmark, only to have him strangled once more by Norway.
"Don't listen to him." He says. Sweden glares at Denmark.
"(N'm'). G't th' m'rk'r. ((Name). Get the marker)" Says Sweden. (Name) squeals in delight.
"Oh boy I love drawing on people's faces!" She says happily.
-At Night-
"We'll see you later Denmark!" cries Finland as he and the other three Nordic nations were preparing to leave for a movie. "I'm sorry you couldn't come but you did lose the rock paper sissors game." Denmark pouted.
"Yeah yeah go and enjoy your movie. I'll be fine." He says sourly. Sweden nods in goodbye.
"See you later Den." Says Iceland.
"If you lose (Name)...I'll kill you." mutters Norway, slightly upset with leaving (Name) alone with Denmark. Especially after what happened earlier that day.
"Hurry up and leave already!" cries Denmark bitterly. He was really eager to watch the movie but someone had to stay and look after (Name) since it wasn't an appropriate movie for her. When the others left Denmark sighed in exhasperation and slumped on the sofa with a bottle of beer in his hands. He took a swig from the bottle before settling it down onto the coffee table. He sat there in silence thinking to himself until he felt a tug on his sleeve. Denmark looked to see little (Name) climbing up onto the sofa and snuggling herself into Denmark; clutching her small favourite stuffed (animal) in her arms.
"Hey (Name). You sleepy?" Asks Denmark gently. (Name) nodded her head and yawned. Denmark looked at the clock. "Well no wonder. It's already midnight, way past your bedtime." (Name) glanced up at Denmark and raised her eyebrow, it wasn't really normal for Denmark to be like this. It made (Name) wonder if he was sick but she was cut off by another yawn. Denmark chuckled and ruffled her hair.
"No this won't do. You should sleep in your bed not on the sofa." Denmark carried the small girl into his arms and he brought her to her room. Denmark then tucked (Name) into her bed and gave her a loving kiss on her forehead.
"Tell me a story Uncle Denmark..." muttered (Name) quietly. Denmark thought for a moment before sitting by (Name)'s bedside.
"Okay, well." started Denmark. "There once was this man named Denmark. He was very out going and loved to drink and have fun. He kept going around declaring himself awesome and getting into trouble. Now Denmark had friends who were more responsible than he was and would always reprimand him when he did wrong. Sometimes he would get strangled by his best friend because he either said or did something reckless. But one day he wanted to change all that."
"Why?" Asked (Name), her eyes drooping into slumber.
"Because he found something that was important to him." replies Denmark. "Well, he honestly didn't find it himself. It was his friends Sweden and Finland who found it; a little girl with beautiful eyes and hair, a little girl with a fun and gentle personality."
"Me?"
"Yeah." Denmark began to stroke (Name)'s hair. "When he saw how the little girl had such wonderful, loving parents and sensible uncles, he wanted to make sure that he was responsible too. So that she would grow up well and be proud to come from the family she was given too. Unlike the others, he didn't want to mess up something so precious."
"I love you Uncle Denmark." Says (Name), she yawned and reached out to hold Denmark's hand. Denmark smiled and watched (Name) sleep.
(Extended Ending)
"Ah, Denmark left his beer bottle on the table again." Says Finland.
"I'll go get him and make him pick it up." Replies Norway but Iceland stops him.
"Don't bother. He's probably too drunk to do anything." Iceland then picks up the bottle and raises his eyebrow in surprise. "He barely drank any."
"What?" Asked Finland in surprise. All of a sudden Sweden called to the others.
"T'k' ' l''k 't th's. (Take a look at this)" He says. The other three then make their way to (Name)'s room where they found Denmark fast asleep by (Name)'s bed; their hands connected together.
"Aww." cooed Finland, "How adorable!"
"Shh!" shushed Iceland, "Not so loud."
"To think Denmark can be like this." Says Norway, "It would be less troublesome if he was like this more often."
"L't's j'st l''v' th'm. (Let's just leave them)" The others agreed and left the room quietly. When the door clicked closed, Denmark shifted in his position and muttered in his sleep.
"Just...you wait...I'll be...most awesome...uncle...ever."
