Disclaimer: I do not own the characters, anime, or even the idea. All I own is the fic.

A/N: I have a request for everyone reading this story. I'm running out of ideas for this fic and I would kindly appriciate it if someone(s) could help me with it. Just send me a review with an idea and hopefuly I will have time to respond.

As the end of the first week of vacation ended the nations decided to camp out under the stars. They decided to spend the night at the small beach that they had found earlier in the week. Taiwan's foot had healed perfectly and she was now able to do anything the other nations were able to so, save for the things that only each nation knew how to do. Since it was still quite early they decided to relax for a while before leaving. They wanted to be there before sunset so they could settle down first. A few of the nations had decided to take a quick nap because they wanted to stay up at late as possible that night.

The only nations not asleep were Korea-only because of his constant levels of energy-, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. So basicly the three youngest Asian nations.

"It is soooooo borrriiinnngggggg." the complaint of course came from Korea.

"Then find something to do, it's not like something is just going to appear out of nowhere. And we're not her for you entertainment." Taiwan was seated next to Hong Kong who was reading another one of his books. Then they lasped into silence. The very short silence was broken by another one of Korea's complaints.

"But theres abso-"

"I don't care, just be quiet Korea!"

"You can't tell me what to do!" Korea stuck his tongue out in a child like fashion. The closing of a book stopped any response that Taiwan was going to make, they then turned to the other nation in the room.

"You two should stop arguing before you wake the others up." Hong Kong then placed the book on the table before getting up.

"Too late for that." They turned around to see Vietnam tying up her hair and the others slowly coming out of their rooms.

"Aiyaaah, can't you two go a single day without fighting aru?" China looked kind of irritated about being woken up so suddenly.

"Look at it this way Yao, we would've woken up in a little bit anyways." Glancing at the clock on the wall she saw that it was just a little past one in the afternoon. "So how about we have a late lunch and then get ready to leave? With the extra time we could go swimming again. We haven't done that since the first day we got here. How does that sound?"

"Well I guess I'm a little hungry, what about you guys?" Thailand asked looking around, the others nodded slightly.

"Good! What do you guys want to eat?"

"Hmm, since we're going swimming why don't we eat something light." Japan suggested. Everyone else nodded in agreement.

"Okay so how does everyone feel about some stir-fry and possibly a salad?"

"Sounds good to me da-ze!"

"M'kay then. China, Mei why don't you two help me?"

"Sure."

"Okay."

The three of them headed into the kitchen while everyone else found something else to do. Hong Kong had gone back to reading while everyone just settled around the living room doing whatever and there was nothing but the sounds of food being cooked.

"Hey, China are you almost done with the vegetables?"

"Yeah, they're almost done. You can add the noddles now aru." he was currently stirring the things in the large pan since they didn't have a wok.

"Okay." Vietnam finished straining the noddles before tossing them in with the vegetables. "Make sure they're only in there for a little while, I don't want the noddles to over cook."

"I know aru." he then dumped the contents of the pan onto a plate and moved out of the way so Vietnam could use the pan. She dumped some cubed meat into the pan and started to stir.

"Mei would you mind finding me the vinegar when you're done?"

"Sure thing." came her reply as she finished cutting up the tomatoes.

Vietnam who had added onions to the pan during the exchange was now turning off the heat and grabbed the bowl where Taiwan had put the lettuce and the tomatoes.

"Here you go." Taiwan had set the bottle of vinegar down next to Vietnam who have her a soft thank you and told her that she could go and wait in the living room. Grabbing a small bowl she poured enough vinegar to fill about half of it before adding some water. She then added some pepper and sugar before stirring and then tasting it. Deeming it was perfect she poured it over the lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and meat before tossing it. Grabbing the plate in her other hand she headed out to where the others were waiting at the dining table.

"Food's done." at those word she could've sworn she saw Korea's eyes light up. She placed the food down in the middle an took her seat. As they began to eat there was nothing but silence, it bordered awkward since no one knew what to say so they kept quite. The silence continued for a little while longer until Taiwan spoke up.

"Guys our trip is over in like a week, we should do something really memorable."

"What could be more memorable then spending time with your family aru?" China continued eating after he had finished.

Taiwan gave him a look before speaking,"You know what I mean."

"Then what do you propose we do Mei?" Vietnam had put her bowl down and laid her chopstick over them.

"I don't yet! But I want to do something different, and fun, and just really memorable." she looked like she was ready to leap out of her seat at any moment with excitement.

"Why don't you figure something out and if it's reasonable enough we'll do it. But first finish your food." Vietnam picked up her chopsticks and began eating again, Taiwan then quickly followed. When everyone finished Thailand, Japan, and Hong Kong volunteered to wash the dishes much to the protest of Vietnam.

"Why do you go and pack whatever you need to pack for swimming." Thailand suggested still trying to get Vietnam out of the kitchen so they could wash the dishes. After a few more minutes of insisting Vietnam finally gave up and went back to her shared room.

"Ah! Hue! Can you help me with something?" Taiwan was currently rummaging through her things looking for something.

"Yeah, sure Mei. What do you need?"

"Well I can't seem to pick a swimsuit, can you pick one for me?"

"You brought more than two swimsuits with you?" Vietnam had pulled out her bag and was adding some clothes along with a towl and her swimsuit into the bag.

"Well of course! So which one do you think I should bring?" Taiwan turned around holding two swimsuits in either hand. The one in her right hand was a one-piece that had a neck line that stopped right in the middle of the breasts. It was a light pink with yellow floral designs on it compleated with the top part being in a halter-style. The one in her left hand was a dark red two-piece with the top being a halter style with a white floral desgin. The bottm was a simple solid colour with two bows adorning either side of the hip.

"I like the red one."

"Really? I haven't worn this one yet." the younger girl placed the one-piece back with the rest of her things.

"Then more of a reason to wear it then right?"

"Yeah I guess so. Hey, I want to see your swimsuit!"

"Sure, but its not like yours. Mine's just plain." she held up her swimsuit for the younger girl to see. It was a simple two-piece coloured light green with no designs on it.

"Aww jeez Hue, you should dress like me sometime! I think you would look great in all of the things I have! We're close to the same size right?" Taiwan was now once again digging through her things looking for something for the other girl.

"Whats wrong with the way I dress? I like it simple and efficient."

"Theres nothing wrong with it but-aha! Found you! Here." She handed Vietnam another swimsuit. It was a redish pink colour with a large gold star in the middle along with a few smaller gold stars adorning the rest of the top and bottom half of the swimsuit. "It looks like your flag and its a little big on me so I think that it'll be perfect for you." Vietnam eyed the swimsuit taking it from the other girl. A soft chuckle coming from her before she looked at the younger girl.

"It's cute, maybe I'll wear it next time."

"So you'll eventually wear it?"

"Yes, yes, of course."

"Hey, Hue you think we should put on our swimsuits now or, should we change into the when we get there?"

"Hmm. I guess we should change now since it would be easier for use to get into the water and it would be more convenient. Lets just change now. Do you wan't you change first?"

"Yeah sure thing." the younger of the two then disappeared into the bathroom and locked the door lest they wanted to repeat what had happened with Vietnam and Korea. As soon as she finished she stepped out and allowed the older girl to change. Once they were done they dressed in a plain shirt and some shorts, grabbed their bags and headed into the living room where everyone else was waiting.

"What took you two so long? All you had to do was change da-ze." Korea was dressed in a T-shirt and white swim trunks with red and blue stripes on it. All the other boys had on a T-shirt and their swim tunks as well.

"Xin lỗi, Mei couldn't decide on a swinsuit and she needed some help. She also wanted me to wear one of hers."

"Ana~ We should get going if we want to get there soon." Thailand spoke up as he headed for the door. Everyone else started to follow man with the glasses. Since this time everyone knew the way they had made it to their destination faster than they had the last time.

"Mmmm its nice and warm!" said as she stretched, from the walk/hike,"I hope the water is nice."

"Why don't you go and see?" Thailand suggested as he placed everyone's belonging in a neat pile near the top.

"Sorry, but I'm going in when Hue goes in."

"Then you'll be waiting a while. We still need to sort things out." Vietnam answered from her place a few meters away.

"Well why don't I help? The faster we get this done the faster we can get in the water!"

"Thats a good idea why don't you go Help Hong Kong and Japan?"

"Okay~" Taiwan then proceeded to jog over to where the two males were setting up a large table. She watched as Japan walked away to do something for a moment. "You need any help?" she questioned.

"Yeah, would you mind grabbing that end and holding it up for me?" she nodded and did as he said. She watched as he pulled the legs of the table out and locked them in place. She turned around as someone tapped her shoulder. It was Japan, she realized what he wanted her to do and moved out of the way as he did the ame thing Hong Kong had done with the legs. She watched as they gently flipped the table over so it could stand on its own.

"Good work aru." China walked over and placed some bags will they all presumed to have food in them on the table. "We're almost done, you can go and relax now aru." After a few more moments of setting up everything was ready for later. Korea had already stripped off his shirt and was already in the water while Taiwan and Vietnam had just finished changing and were now heading for the water.

"Hue! C'mon, you're taking forever!" Taiwan whined as she turned areound to face the other girl.

Chuckling the older girl sped up her pace slightly but not enough to satisfiy the younger girl,"If you're in such a hurry why don't you go ahead of me?"

"Because I want to make sure you get in the water. You always stay up on dry land, you should swim with me!"

"And get caught in a waterfight between you and Young Soo? No thank you."

"We didn't start a waterfight last time."

"Yeah, but I have a feeling that you will this time."

"How do you know?"

"I just do, I spend enough time with you two to know." having no response Taiwan just simply grabbed Vietnam's wrist and dragged her into the water. They continued walking until they were up to their waist in water. "The water is a little colder than I expected but its bearable." Taiwan had laid down and was now floating in the water with a smile on her and and looking completely relaxed.

"Hmmm. I think it feels nice."

"Whatever, I'm going to swim okay?"

"M'Kay. I'll be right here of you need me." Vietnam rolled her eyes playfully and chuckled.

"Okay, just watch where you're floating. You could drift off somewhere."

"Don't worry I'll be just fine."

"Okay then." With that Vietnam went underneath the water and swam away from the younger girl.

Listening as the other swam away Taiwan slowly let her eyes slip close and relaxed her body even further. She let out a satisfied sigh as she felt the water ripple over her body, the soothing motion slowly lullling her. "I could stay like this forever, its so relaxing. Everything is quiet and its just me." she murmured to herself. After a few more moents she slowly opened her eyes and pulled herself up slightly. "Thats odd, usually Korea would be in the water by now. Where is he?" as she spoke she didn't realize the sudden change in how the water moved beneath her. "Hmmm I wonder if hes-" she was cut short when she felt something grab onto her ankle and yank her down, "AHHHHHH!" she screamed before she was yanked down again.

Hearing the scream the nations on the land and Vietnam rushed to the water. They could see that she was struggling to stay afloat. Vietnam was trying to reach the girl but she was too far away, Hong Kong had jumped into the water along with Thailand to help her.

"Hong! Hue!" she yelled as they both managed to grab her hand and pull her up. Taiwan panted as she clutched onto the other boy for dear life. Vietnam's eyes narrowed as she dove under the water to see what was going, as she suspected it was Korea who had been causing all of the touble. Thailand who had noticed the look in his neighbor's eyes and dove under as well.

"Thank...you..." Taiwan panted after she recovered from the shock of what had happened. She was still clutching onto Hong Kong's shoulders, afraid that if she let go the same thing might happen again.

"Ack! H-hey! Watch what you're doing!" they heard an all too familar voice. Korea.

"I think we all know who was behind all of this." Vietnam and Thailand were currently holding Korea by either on of his arms and dragging him towards the other two.

Taiwan's fear had now morphed into anger as they two elder nations were dragging the Korean man towards them. "Korea? That wasn't funny! I was scared for my life, and I thought I was going to die!" she had let go of Hong Kong and raised as fist before swinging it across Korea's head before she angrily stomped off and back to dry land.

"Back on land China and Japan stood ready with towels for all of the nations that been in the water. Taiwan had grabbed a towel from China and went off somewhere before any of the other nations could get back. After everyone was relatively dry they all gathered around Korea and Vietnam. Vietnam was nursing the large bump that has formed as a result of getting hit on the head, hard. Korea was once again trying to touch the bump when Vietnam swatted his hand away.

"What did I tell you about touching it?" she scolded him in a way that reinforced her role as the mother or big sister. Korea muttered a quick apology and went silent. "Don't tell that to me, you need to tell that to Taiwan." Vietnam's voice had softened and was now just slighly rubbing the boy's head. "There, better?" Korea nodded softly and she stood up. "You better come up with a good apology before Hong brings Mei back."

"Okay." came the soft reply. The other nations had left Korea alone to think about what he had done and they were now all busying themselves with other things. Sometime passed before they all saw Hong Kong return with Taiwan quickly following behind. Everyone looked over to Korea who was now standing at the far end of the beach waiting for her. Taiwan kept walking when Hong Kong stopped over where the other nations were.

"You think she'll forgive him?"

"I don't know Hong, he did scare her to death." Vietnam answered watching the two.

"And almost caused all of us a panic attack aru."

"I think it would be best to wait and see." with that Japan turned around and resumed to what he was doing.

"Mmm, I guess you're right." everyone else watched for a little while longer before resuming to their tasks, leaving two of the youngest nations to sort out their own problems.

"-again I'm really sorry for what I did."

"You have to come up with something better than that! You can't possibly belive how scared I was! Gosh, I can't even believe we're considered family! Why do you always do that?" Taiwan's expression was one of anger and by her words she really was mad.

"I guess maybe it's because you always get the attention." came the mumbled reply.

"Huh?"

"I said-"

"I know what you said but are you serious?"

"Yeah, I guess so."

"I don't get it, I mean you of all people? I mean if anything I think you get all of the attention. I'm even jealous!"

"Wha-? Wait what?"

"Yeah, I mean like I think Hue really sometimes does favor you. Y'know? Since she does seem to have a pretty good friendship with you know." Taiwan adverted her eyes and her right hand started to rub her left upper arm.

"You mean my brother? North?"

"Yeah, you know I think she takes it easy on you sometimes."

"Compaired to what she really could do, I guess she has hasn't she?"

"See?"

"But what about you! She always takes your side and is always angry with me! Everyone else does too."

"She just wants you to grown up! Look at me! I'm younger and I'm more mature than you! Hell, even some of the Micro Nations are more mature than you." Korea with a lack of argument crossed his arms and pouted. "See? That is what I mean."

"Hmph!" Korea then proceded to stick his tongue out at the girl across from him.

"Ana, I think they're close to making up." Thailand handed Vietnam a water bottle and sat down next to her and watched the two nations down the beach.

"Hmm, I guess so. But I wonder much longer its going to take."

"Aiyah, they've been talking for over 15 minutes aru. How much longer will they take."

"Patience Yao, remember when we were younger? We didn't have a family like this to make us forgive each other. It took us much much longer than it is taking them. Besides I'm sure you can wait a few more minutes. They'll be done soon."

"If you say so." The three of them returned their gazes to Korea and Taiwan and continued waiting.

"So do you forgive me?"

"I guess so, but only if you don't try anything like that again for the next hundred years."

"Deal! Also as another defence for myself for what I did, I'm your brother I'm expected to do things like that da-ze!" he then ran off to be with the other nations while Taiwan stood in shock before running after him.

A/N: It's been a long time since I've updated(almost 5 months!) this but don't worry all of those that ready this story, I haven't forgotten about you all. I've just been having some trouble with my writer's block and I can't seem to find any motivation or ideas for writing any of my fanfics. School is going to start real soon so I just wanted to make sure that this chapter was posted before then for fear that I won't have a lot of time for my fanfics since I'm starting my first year of highschool. As for the food they were cooking my parents make those things a lot so I was just sticking with what I knew best when it came to food. The second part of the camping trip will revolve around star gazing and some first kisses, so theres a little hint and teaser for you guys. By the way did you guys get the little hint when it came to Taiwan's and Vietnam's swimsuits?

Well anyways I hope to be able to update with another chapter as soon as I can but if not, remember real life come first!
