Monaco And France

"Well I haven't seen you since I walked you home last week" France said with a smile.
"Yeah I guess", she said lazily as she looked away.

France frowned momentarily as he noticed her near dazed reactions.
"Something wrong Monaco?" he asked.
"Nothing" she said with a sigh.
"You know if theirs ever anything-"
"So what do you want France?" she asked somewhat bitterly.
"I can't just say hi?" France said smirking.
"France, I really need to get to class, and-"
"My next class is on the way to yours so we may as well walk with each other, who doesn't like company"
"Who likes your company?" she asked bitterly.

"Wait a moment Monaco, I've got something for you, so hold out your hands and close your eyes"
"This better not be a trick" she said closing doing as he instructed, but then she opened her eyes and said, "And it better not be something disgusting"

He let out a fake sigh, "Oh I better pull my zipper up then", he said with a little laugh, making her bit her lip and get close to punch him"

"Ok, for real, close your eyes" he said actually raising one of his own hands and placing his palm under her fringe to cover her eyes.
Then he let go so she could see.

She then saw he was holding out a bundle of cherry blossoms.
Although she didn't want to, she couldn't help but smile.

It was her favourite flower after all, although she'd never tell him it was, though she always thought that he must of known somehow, if he ever gave her a flower it was a cherry blossom.

"Thanks, they're, really pretty" she said honestly smiling, though trying to avoid eye contact.
"Well, I do grow them just for you" France said smiling at the girl.
"You didn't have to if it's a bother, I don't like to be a bother so don't try so hard"
"Its not a bother" France said as he placed his hand on her head, "Your so cute when you say thank you that I can't resist"

She pouted, with his hand still on her head and said, "Glad to know you only care about getting something out of it, and why cherry blossoms anyway" she asked annoyed.

"Please, I know you love them"
"Maybe I hate them and I'm just being polite" she huffed.
Then he leant over to be at eye level with her as he said, "If you did hate them, you would have told me by now, you've never been one to spare my feelings"

He then patted her head once and took his hand away.
"I honestly don't understand why you're so resistant against me, you know I always have good intentions"

She then let out a sarcastic laugh, "You never have good intentions when it comes to girls"
"Ever thought that maybe I make a special exception for you because I think your so special"
"Well I'm not special, I'm very, very ordinary, in fact I'm really boring"

He then bent down to look her dead in the eye and he smiled, "You're not boring, so don't say that, in fact I've always thought you were very smart and very pretty" he remarked, making her blush, then he said, "Oh, Monaco's blushing"

She was, in fact she was glowing red, "Their wasn't a need to point that out, ruined a good moment their" she said trying to belittle him for being stupid, "And anyway, I know what you pull with the pretty girls and you haven't tried anything with me"

"Oh, ok" he said calmly then suddenly he took her hands in his and said, "I swear"
Her heart was in her mouth, what was he going to say, why hold her hands, she thought looking down to their hands.

Then her eyes widened as she thought he may just be confessing"

"-That from now on, I'll always find time to try violate and grope you" he sad smirking, she was speechless, she new he was joking to get on her nerves but he actually got her hopes up at that moment.

"Don't say stuff like that in public" she pouted annoyed as she pulled her hands from his.
Then he put an arm around her and placed a hand on her cheek, "So you want me to say stuff like that in private?" he asked jokingly.
She blushed a little before braking out his loose grip.
"You shouldn't touch me so casually either" she huffed.

"And because of you everyone calls me 'France's girl"
"Who calls you 'France's girl', I'll have a 'talk' with them if you like" he asked sternly.

"No, its talk like that, that's made everyone think we're together!" she said.
"What wrong with that, I think we make a cute couple" he said cheerfully.

She huffed and sighed before calming down.

"France, I'm sorry but we might be friends, but nothing more ok"
"Ok" he agreed calmly.
"You're not my big brother and you're not my boyfriend" she said sternly.
"Fine with me" he said with his usual cheery smile.

Then they continued down the hall in silence, for once he didn't bother her or even pat her on her head.

"You're, taking this… well", she said after a few minutes.
"Well I now understand that you didn't want my help and I was a pure inconvenience on you" he said, lazily smiling as he walked.
Frowning a little she said quietly, "Well, I wouldn't say that"

"Doesn't matter now anyway" France said still smiling at her, "I know when I see a lost cause so I'll leave you be"
She half smiled at him, though felt a strange sadness as she said, "That's, err… very mature of you, your never going to bother me again?"

"Well, actually because I'm older then you, that means I don't have to listen to you" he said with a taunting laugh as he walked past her, patting her on the head one more time.

She froze in place, she angrily she bit her lip as he frolicked down the hall way into his class.

"That… that… he's such a…" she said to herself.

She looked down into her hands, she still held the cherry blossoms that he gave her a while ago.

The next day

It was beginning of the day, everyone in the classroom was talking amongst them selves and moving around, no one really noticed when little Monaco entered the classroom, despite it not even being hers/

She was trembling.
'No one does this anymore, its stupid, really stupid' she thought to herself as she walked, still somehow unnoticed by the other students.

She looked down to what she was holding in her hands, she was holding a letter in a sealed envelope

It wasn't the first time she'd been in this classroom, she'd come in with France a few times and because of this, knew where he sat, so she slowly made her way over to his desk.

She held the letter close to her heart as she hesitated.
Then suddenly as she was just about to drop it on his chair.

"Monaco!" she heard from behind her, she spun around, putting the envelope in her bag.
It was France, with England behind him, they must have finished their business in the student council room she thought.
"You've come to see me, how sweet of you.

"Look, I have something I need to say to you, and I think if I don't say it now I never will" she said sternly making him go quite.

She bit her lip again.
She was shaking a little nervously she pulled her hands into fists as she tried to say it.

"France… I" she began but still stuttered a little as well.
She felt so flustered.
"France…" she said biting her lip a final time before saying.

"You're a complete pervert and I hate you" she said calmly in her normal voice, she then nodded to herself, trying not to make eye contact with him, then she walked past him

Somehow not phased by that France turned to face her and asked, "Is that all?"
She could tell that he was a little upset, but she also knew he'd get over it.

She hesitated, but decided against declaring the truth and that moment, "No, just wanted you to know that I hate you" she said as she began to close the classroom door behind her, "Oh and about yesterday" she said coming back in, she blushed a little out of embarrassment, "I've changed my mind, no hard feelings ok" then she slammed the door and walked off back to her classroom.

Author's note

Tried my best with what material there is so be forgiving, there is literally only one scene that I could find with Monaco and it isn't a speaking role.

Also I'm going to try to add another chapter to the main story ark, but this is just something to kind of split up the action.
