Hong Kong may not know much about taking care of children, but he was pretty sure that the two were supposed to be sleeping already. He glanced at the clock. Okay, maybe they should have been sleeping a long time ago. Hong Kong rubbed his temples. He couldn't take much more of this and he had no idea where the babies were.

Opening his eyes, he saw England staring at him while sticking his head out from around a corner.

"England…Come here," Hong Kong said cautiously. He held out both his hands to England, indicating that he had nothing and therefore should not be treated like he was a threat. Walking forwards, he didn't notice China's clothes bunched up on the ground and tripped. England took off, startled at the loud noise Hong made when he landed on the floor. A low groan was the only noise he allowed himself to make when his nose connected with the ground.

Rolling over, he was surprised to find China standing over him with a concerned expression. Moving fast, Hong grabbed China before he could run away again. Now all he had to do was find England…

Which turned out to be easier said than done. China had already fallen asleep on his shoulder by the time Hong Kong found England curled up and asleep by the heater. Relief flooded through Hong as he picked up England and carried them to a room.

Despite how frustrating it was turning out to be to look after them, Hong Kong did have to admit they looked adorable curled up and hugging each other in the giant bed.

His smile faded as he thought of how he would have to deal with them tomorrow. There was no way he was going to be looking after both of them alone.

Hong Kong had just served breakfast when the doorbell chimed. Uttering a strict, "stay," to the two, Hong Kong moved to open the door. Taiwan stood on the steps looking confused. Which was understandable, seeing as Hong Kong had only called her to tell her that he needed her help.

"What's…" she trailed off as she caught sight of baby China. Rushing over to him, she picked him up, inciting a disgruntled cry from China. "You're so cute, yes you are!" she cried. China giggled and reached towards Taiwan. Hong Kong felt his eye twitch, why couldn't China behave this well around him?

Hong Kong felt a light tug on his pant leg. England was holding on to him with a pouty face. Lifting the baby nation into his arms, Hong asked, "Are you feeling left out?" In response, England stuck his thumb into Hong Kong's mouth.

Hong Kong nearly dropped England a minute later when Taiwan let out a loud screech.

"What have you dressed them in?" she shot a pointed look towards Hong Kong.

"…I-"

"We're going shopping. Now."

Hong Kong was rather beginning to regret calling Taiwan for help. Embarrassed by what China and England were wearing, Taiwan had forced Hong Kong to hide them in his jacket and smuggle them into the mall while she picked out something for them to wear. He was still rather amazed that he had actually done what she had said. Granted, it had sounded so easy the way she put it…but in reality, it was like some version of hell come to life.

Taiwan walked fast- too fast for someone carrying two squirming babies in his jacket. Hong Kong was also attracting some very weird stares and England and China had started to fight.

"Stop. You two, please?" Hong Kong begged in his emotionless tone. He had just gotten England to stop pulling on China's hair and China to stop pinching England's eyebrows when he felt a tap on his shoulder.

Turning around, Hong Kong felt his mouth dry up as he saw the mall security standing behind him.

It took an hour of explaining and a bit of Taiwan's charm to assure security that Hong Kong wasn't trying to kidnap the babies.

Once they were free to go, Taiwan grabbed Hong's arm and pulled him towards a giant store.

"Look, look! I found the most adorable baby clothes for them," Taiwan squealed. "Here." Thrusting clothes towards Hong Kong, Taiwan grabbed China away who eagerly latched onto Taiwan's neck. "I'll change China and you change England. Then they won't have to wear those god awful things you dressed them in."

"They weren't that awful…" Hong Kong mumbled as he made his way to dress England.

Though Hong Kong did have to admit, Taiwan did have a good taste in clothes. For England, she had picked out a green sweater with rabbit ears attached to the hood and wings attached to the back. China was dressed in panda sweater with little black eyes and ears on the hood. Finally both of them had pants and shoes to wear. To Hong Kong's relief, China didn't seem to be attempting to strip anymore.

"Great. Can we leave now?" Hong Kong asked after they left the store. Taiwan fixed him with an incredulous stare.

"What are you talking about?" she asked in a how-stupid-are-you? type of voice. "There's so much we still have to buy! Make sure they don't run off," she added as England tried to run away again.

When Hong Kong had finally caught England by diving on to the ground to grab hold of England's foot (inciting applause from fellow shoppers), China jumped on to Hong's back and Taiwan let out a loud sigh.

"Oh, your children are so adorable," a lady passing by commented.

"They're not-" Hong Kong began to correct.

"Why, thank you," Taiwan answered instead.

"What a dedicated Daddy," another woman said.

"I'm not-"

"Father!" England yelled. Hong Kong blinked, unsure of how to reply.

"Stay here with them," Taiwan said, already walking away.

With a disdainful look, England wrenched his foot away from Hong Kong and kicked him in the face. Directly after both England and China took off running and disappeared into the crowd.

England tottered in on unsteady legs into the flower shop, staring up at the numerous arrays of flowers. One in particular caught his eye. He reached up trying to grab, but the flower was beyond his reach. Tears of frustration began to form in his eyes.

Collapsing on to the ground, England let his tears flow freely down his face. He stopped when he felt something brush his face. Opening his eyes, he saw the flower he wanted in front of his face. Grabbing the flower quickly, England took off.

The florist smiled as she watched the little boy running as fast as his little legs could carry him. The wings on his sweater flapped back and forth as he ran.

England ran into the toy store next door, quickly finding China amongst the stuffed animals. The Chinese nation looked up from the panda he was hugging to England holding out a peony towards him.

Hesitantly, and a bit suspiciously, China took the flower from England and sniffed it. England smiled a bit before being pulled down onto the pile of pandas with China. In a show of gratitude for the flower, China leaned over and gave England a sloppy kiss on the cheek.

A second later, China bit England's cheek.

After a while, Hong Kong and Taiwan had finally located China and England.

"Aren't they cute," Taiwan whispered as they watched the two babies sleeping next to each other on a pile of pandas. England sucked slowly on his thumb and held China's hand, while China chewed on the petals of the peony.

Taiwan used this chance to whip out her newly purchased camera and snap a picture.

"When they're back to normal, this will be good blackmail," she muttered.
