Promises
The pone rang for a while before Roderich finally answered, and by that time Sofy was full on sobbing.
"Whoa whoa, calm down...who's this?" The Austrian replied.
"I-It's Sofy...L-Listen..I-I need t-to come stay at y-your place f-for a while..." She hated how her voice cracked with a sob every other word, but it didn't matter anymore.
"Sofy? What's the matter with you dear? Why are you crying?"
"I-It's Ludwig...It's a long story, and I'll explain when I see you...can I stay?"
"Sure, I'll have hungary get the guest bedroom ready, when will you be here?"
"Around an hour tops...I just need to pack a suitcase..." Her sobbing had reduced to a few tears gliding down her cheeks every now and then.
"We'll be waiting for you dear, be careful on your way here."
"I will...thanks Roddy..." And she hung up, tossing her suitcase on the bed and grabbing a few pairs of clothes and PJs out of her drawer then hit the bathroom, grabbing a toothbrush and toothpaste, and anything else she might need. She wouldn't be gone for a long time, maybe a week or so. She just needed some time to get away from everything.
When she looked at through her suitcase one last time to make sure she had gotten everything she needed she zipped it up.
Sighing she sat on the bed, gazing around the room. Her eyes moved from the chest, to the dresser, to the closet, and finally to the desk, and she remembered her locket still waiting to be fixed in the top drawer.
Standing slowly, she walked over and opened the drawer, pulling the rather large locket out. Examining it, she ran her fingers through the broken chain, remembering she had needed to get a new one, and opened the locket.
Inside on the right oval was a small black and white photo of her, Italy, Hungary, and Austria, and on the left, a photo of ludwig.
Tears nipped the back of her eyes again as the memories of all the promises they made on the locket flooded through her mind, and then those dreadful words lingered.
"That was when we were children...Sofy...we need to get out of the past...you need to get out of the past...We can't just promise anything anymore..."
She gently set the locket down on the desk. She didn't want to look at it while she was at Austria's.
There was a soft knock on her door. Ludwig.
"What do you want?" She said.
"Can I please come in?"
She stayed silent for a few seconds. "Ja...come in."
Ludwig opened the door and walked in, gently shutting it behind him.
"Sofy, I'm sorry I hurt you...I'm serious when I say that..."
She looked up at him. "I didn't doubt that you were sorry...I-I can forgive you after a while for forgetting..."
"Then why is there still a wall between us..."
"Ludwig..." She whispered. "There isn't a wall between us...dont-"
"Why wouldn't you believe me when I said I loved you?"
Gott he was such a hardhead. "I already said before, your in love with Italy..."
Ludwig set the suitcase on the floor next to the bed and walked up to Sofy.
"What can I do to prove it to you."
"Nothing Ludwig! I'm telling you! Your in love with-mmph!"
He kissed her again, this time rougher. Sofy fought him back, trying to pull away this time but he held her there. When he finally pulled away she glared at him.
"What the hell Ludwig! Enough with that! How-" Ludwig shoved her back on the bed and climed over her, tears streaming down his face.
"Who the hell are you to tell me who I love and who I dont."
She stared up at him, trying to push him off. "Get off! I'm sorry ok?"
He pinned her hands above her head and kissing down her neck.
"L-Ludwig!" Her body shuddered underneath his lips.
"Just let me show you how much I love you!" He looked up at her, his eyes glazed with tears.
"Ludwig no, get off." She squirmed under him, trying to get out of his grip.
He sighed and let go, getting off and standing in front of the bed.
"I'm sorry..." He whispered.
Sofy just shook her head and grabbed her suitcase, storming out the room and slamming the front door shut behind her.
Ludwig sat on the bed with his head in his hands for a long time. Ashamed of himself for his actions toward Sofy, but he couldn't help himself. His feelings had come back for her, but she didn't believe him...He couldn't blame her though...
He had been the one that had broken her heart beyond the point of fixing easily...
Sofy threw her suitcase in the passenger's seat and got into the drivers, slamming the door shut and kicking the engine to life.
Tears streamed down her face. Ludwig had tried to take advantage of her, tell her that he loved her, but she thought otherwise.
She still believed that he was acting on guilt...
The hour long car drive seemed much shorter, and before she new it she had pulled into Austria's driveway.
Getting out and throwing her suitcase over her shoulder, she slowly made her way to Austria's door and gently knocked.
Hungary answered and smiled, letting her inside.
"Mr. Austria has been worried sick! You are 30 minutes late!" She said, dusting off Sofy and taking her bag.
"There you are!" Austria said, walking into the hallway from the parlor, a worried look on his face.
"Sorry...I was...distracted..." She said, shivering.
"Hm...well dear, why dont you come and sit with me and tell me everything that's going on will you? Hungary make some tea."
Hungary nodded and left the room, and Sofy followed Austria, sitting on the couch.
"Well...Ludwig had said when I saw him for the first time in a few years that..."
They talked for about an hour, Sofy described everything that had happened between her and Ludwig leading up to when she left.
On several occations Sofy had started sobbing, Hungary sitting next to her and rubbing her back, trying to comfort her. Most of the time though, Sofy had just had a few tears slip here and there.
When she finished, Austria sat in silence, thinking of the times that Ludwig had come so long ago.
"How could he forget so much in so little time?" He asked, hoping to not provoke anymore tears.
"H-he said that...w-when you loose f-feelings for someone y-you t-tend to forget t-them..."
Hungary frowned. "I swear that Ludwig can be so blunt sometimes! He's too serious!"
"It's not his fault...it's just the way he is...it can get annoying at times...but I like that side of him..." Sofy whispered.
Austria spoke up. "Well it's late, we should all head to bed. Sofia if you need us we'll be in our bedroom, don't be afraid to come get us ok? Hungary will show you to your room."
Hungary nodded and Sofy thanked him, following Hungary to the bedroom.
"The bed is all made for you and the restroom is just down the hall." she said, trying to keep a cheery voice to mask her tiredness. It was almost 3 in the morning.
Sofy yawned and nodded, thanking Hungary as she left and flopped on the bed. Sofy was extreamly tired but she would get no sleep that night. Instead, she lay there. Tossing and turning, thinking of what had happened right after she left Ludwig.
She missed him...
