Two Turtledoves

The next day, Japan had several meetings to go to. She did her usual morning routine before meeting with America and England to go to her first meeting, the UN meeting.

"So anything interesting yesterday, Japan?" America asked, trying to make small talk. Japan replied, "Nothing much, America-san."

The silence was bought back once again as America pouted. They kept walking towards the building as America tried to formulate another question to break the silence.

"Oh yeah, did you get any gifts yet Japan?" asked America. "I got one yesterday," she answered.

"Who's it from?" America asked. Japan shrugged, "The gift was in front of my door."

"No clues?" England asked. Japan shook her head. America grinned, "Sweet! It's time for the hero to find Japan's secret admirer!"

"Calm down you twat," sighed England. "Her admirer's going to show up sooner or later," he said. Japan silently agreed with England.

As Japan went to her seat in between Jamaica and Jordan, she was greeted by the friendly nations as she replied back politely. She was given a hug by Italy, who was pulled away by Romano, shouting at him "for the pizza last night." When she arrived to her seat, she saw something in her seat which her seat neighbors had somehow not noticed. It was a bird cage that had a thin cloth over it. Inside were two doves, leaning on each other as they seemed to be asleep.

Only a few nations knew that she took care of birds back in her house, so she wondered who her secret admirer was. She took the bird cage and gently set it down on the floor, careful not to wake the birds up. She sat down on the chair then she noticed something embroidered on it.

"On the second day of Christmas, my true love gave me…"

Japan tilted her head in wonder. Her admirer took the song serious and cleverly enough to give her literal doves. She was amazed by how her admirer knew what she liked. Nevertheless, she smiled and shook her head before putting the embroidered cloth back on the cage.

The meeting dragged on for three hours before Germany called a break due to the heavy tension between Denmark and Sweden about "something really stupid from the past" as Norway put it. Even Italy, who was mostly oblivious to the atmosphere, sensed the heavy atmosphere between the two Nordics.

As she got up from her chair, she was approached by Hungary. She grinned, "Anymore gifts from your admirer?"

Japan looked straight at Hungary, "Taiwan told you?"

Hungary nodded. Japan shook her head before pointing to the bird cage under the table. She exclaimed, with green eyes wide, "Turtledoves?!"

"What turtledoves?" asked a male voice. Both female nations turned to England and France who had been passing behind them. Japan was shaking her hand in dismissal but Hungary couldn't hold in her fangirling, "Two turtledoves from her secret admirer!"

"My, my, is someone taking a liking towards mademoiselle Japan?~" France said, twirling one of his blonde locks before he put an arm around Japan's shoulders pulling her closer. England promptly pushed away France from the Nipponese, while glaring at the said nation. Before they got into another fight, Hungary pulled away Japan from the two blondes.

"I know they have sexual tensions but do they need to bicker, like, every hour?" Hungary sighed as they arrived outside the room. Japan silently muttered, "I still ship them though."

"Say Japan, do you have any clue who your secret admirer is?" asked Hungary, as they went outside for some fresh air. Japan shook her head, before smiling, "Although they're really sweet…"


Anyone wanna give a go at guessing who Japan's secret admirer is?
