Final chapter! ;A; Thank you to everyone who read the entire thing, I will be posting a sequel that RubyKurosaki, dragora-kun and I have been working on soon!
China shuddered at the touch "Get off me aru." he replied coldly
England wasn't listening, leaning into the sensitive spot he knew so well on the elder's neck, toying with it: "Truth~ Come on Yao..."
"Mmmn...no!" China pushed him away fiercely "Don't you dare try that against me!"
Arthur hadn't been expecting that! Stumbling, his angry glare set on his face again, he growled "America's here isn't he? There are marks all over you..."
"So if he is aru? Do you ever think about those who get caught in your little game? Me, Antonio, Kiku, how many will you cast aside?"
"You've fallen for the makeup sex?" Arthur smirked, ignoring the others words: "Are you desperate? Or just a pervert?"
China flushed in embarrassment but refused to let the Englishman's words hurt "At least I don't sleep with every other nation to avoid the one I really want aru"
England paused, thinking; "What are you getting at? I've always loved Francis~ I just get bored..."
"Do you even think about the consequences of your actions aru? Of those of us you throw away? No wonder you're so cold, you can't even begin to imagine that, can you?" China yelled, no longer caring if America heard. England had done too much to him and apologised too little. His hands curled into fists "Get out aru!"
"Of course I think." Arthur scorned, pulling himself up to his full height, gazing downwards: "I know those feelings...But I don't see the point of this. I came to ask you for America back. I need to talk to him."
"To beg his forgiveness aru? To swear that you'll never do it again?"
"No." England still used his scolding tone, looking disgusted: "I came to ask him what I do with his crap. My Fiancé is moving in."
China stared, unable to comprehend England's coldness. "So you are actually going through with it aru..."
"You really think I could ever want him back?"
"I'm just amazed that you can finally admit your feelings for Francis aru. You two have been dancing around each other for the best part of a millennia after all"
Arthur turned scarlet, gazing at the floor: "W-well...well the bloody git finally decided to ask me."
"When you were already in a relationship with Alfred aru? You two really don't care do you?"
"What?" Arthur looked up, still stained with blush: "W-we weren't even...all the arguments..."
"If so then why was America about to propose aru?"
"Idiot!" England ran a hand through his hair, pouting; "Not the first time...he asked twice...I said no."
China frowned "I'm confused aru. What happened? And don't be condescending to me, it's too early"
"Alfred has proposed before. I keep refusing him...I didn't want him…"
"Then why do you let him in your bed aru? You know he has that religious side that will want commitment"
Arthur shrugged, irritated: "Sex and marriage are two different things."
"Does he think like that though aru? You can't deny you've lead him on"
"To be bloody honest," England resumed his scowl: "I don't care. Nor do I care some perverted old man has him to play with."
"I'm not a pervert aru!" China burst out "Just leave!"
Arthur smirked, turned on his heel; "I'm guessing you won't mind me bringing his stuff here. If you feel like keeping him?"
China sighed "Unlike you, I'll leave what happens up to him aru. But feel free to. I can always take it to his later."
"Good. See you later then." He threw the key to the other: "Still got this...If you remember OUR relationship..."
"As if I could forget aru. You stole the only good thing to come out of that"
"Opium!" He laughs, striding out of the door, his ice cold aura leaving with him…
China raced after him, yelling out the door "You care that little about your son aru? Well just leave aru! Don't you dare come back or I'll kill you!"
Arthur raised his hand in a mock salute, not turning back as he walked, from seemingly nowhere France appeared, wrapping his arms around the others waist as they walked together...China watched, it didn't hurt...it didn't hurt at all! Good mood gone, he marched into the kitchen, grabbing some leftovers to take upstairs.
America hadn't been stupid enough to stay in bed, or not to hear. Grabbing his shirt and boxers he ran down the stairs as soon as the door went... "Yao! Where'd you go?"
China paused "...Kitchen aru..."
He ran in, searching out the other and holding him close to his chest; "I-I'm sorry!"
China leant into him, enjoying the comfort "You heard aru?"
"All of it...You OK?"
China nodded, burying his head in America's chest "I'll live aru...I always do" He looked up at America, worried by the silence "And you? Are you ok aru?"
"Y-yeah dude! Absolutely fine!" But his smile didn't reach his eyes
~~~~~Flashback ends~~~~~
China hugged America tighter, kissing the top of his head "They are both dicks aru"
America sniffled "Y-ya know the rest...Unless you wanna ask anythin?"
"No aru" Yao gently stroked his hair "Thank you for telling me aru"
Alfred reached round and hugged the Chinese man "I wouldn't swap yaknow...swap you for any English bastard..."
China hugged him back "Neither would I aru...wouldn't swap you for any Russian either aru"
America grinned in return "Sentimental old man~" he said teasingly, poking Yao who frowned slightly but returned the smile "Is that so bad aru?"
"No...No..." Alfred hugged him close "Its fine…"
The two hugged close on the sofa, providing mutual comfort and support. The two had each been through a lot, and yet they'd somehow ended up here in each other's arms, comforting each other through their past. Yao sighed as he leant deeper against the American. He knew it wouldn't last, these things never did, but for now it was nice to pretend…and never let go.
That was a looooong flashback huh? I hate ending things, I never know how to finish!
Hopefully everyone has enjoyed, please review and tell me what you thought!
