Chapter: 3

Prussia sighed as he sat at a table in a bar. It was only the day after returning to Germany's house from Canada's, and he was not so sure if coming home was the best idea. He cared about Canada, really cared, so much so that the little gift which he failed to give her weighed as much on his mind as the memory of seeing Canada happy at all of the other gifts. He gave out a sigh and took another swig of his beer before taking the box out of his back pocket and opened it. Inside the box was a small, gold ring, nothing overly fancy yet still stunning in its own way. To him, the ring reminded him perfectly of his girlfriend.

Prussia had wanted to give it to her on Valentine's Day, but he got cold feet when he noticed all of the other gifts she received. He simply did not want his gift to be clumped in with the others, or at least that was what he kept telling himself.

After staring at it for longer than he realized, he snapped the box shut when he heard his friends Spain and France call to him. Upon hearing them walk closer to him, he casually placed the ring box back into his pocket and spun around to face them with a smile.

"Hi Prussia, we figured that you'd still be at Canada's house," Spain said while taking a seat next to Prussia.

"You didn't do anything to make her chase you out, did you," France asked teasingly.

"'Course not. By the way thanks for sending her a present. Really did a number to make that day not as awesome as it should have been," Prussia said with a slightly hurt voice.

France paused at this and frowned before asking, "Come now, surely one little gift should not have made that much of a difference. Or what, did she take it the wrong way?"

"Well, I don't really know what way she was taking it, but when she got your little gift she also got a ton of crap from practically every other guy nation!" Prussia explained.

"Was I not supposed to send her anything?" Spain asked before he and France realized what was really going on. Spain then continued by saying, "I get it! No, Prussia, I really wasn't trying to take her or anything. Besides Roma and I shared getting her a bouquet. We simply thought that it would be nice."

Prussia gave the two of them a disbelieving look before saying, "Fine, whatever."

"So by everyone, who do you mean exactly?" France asked while taking a sip of the wine given to him.

"I mean everyone. You guys, England, America, her friends, even nations which I did not even knew she hung out with. And most of them weren't your typical cheap shit either," Prussia said.

"And this makes you jealous, non?" France asked with a slight smile.

Prussia blushed slightly upon hearing this, causing France to give out a snicker. At last Prussia said. Maybe…a little. I'm too awesome to be really jealous."

"And how does Canada feel about getting all of those gifts?" Spain asked.

Prussia paused slightly at this and looked down. At last he replied, "Well, she was happy. I mean I can't really blame her, she even admitted that in the past she was lucky if she got so much as a call on that day, but still. She didn't have to look so happy in front of me."

"Well what did you give her?" France asked.

To the question Prussia said, "That's none of your unawesome business!"

"Oh mon ami, you didn't forget to buy her something did you?" France asked slightly afraid of hearing a 'no.'

"Of course I bought her something, and she loved it! Until she saw all the other gifts and forgot about it," Prussia said, remembering the rose and stuffed animals.

"I'm sure you're just blowing this out of proportions, mi amigo. I mean, you two may seem like a weird couple at first but you also seem to really like eachother," Spain said reassuringly.

"Ya, I hope so. Otherwise I'm going to feel like the most unawesome person on the planet," Prussia mumbled too softly for the others to hear. Shortly after saying this, he tried to change the subject from his and Canada's relationship and was successful. After some time and several steins of beer later, he left the bar and headed back for Germany's house. There he slept off his drunkenness until morning.

Prussia felt better the morning after talking about Canada with his friends and decided to call her before eating breakfast. Unlike usually when he would call, however, she did not pick up within the first few rings. It was not until the answering machine began to receive his message that she finally picked up.

"Sorry, hello, who is it?" Canada asked breathlessly.

"Hey Birdie, it's me your awesome boyfriend. Where were you?" Prussia asked relieved to have her pick up.

"Oh, I just got in from running errands and had forgotten to take my cell with me. From the sound of it I must have picked it up right on time, eh," Canada said happily before pausing then asking, "So is there anything I can do for you?"

"Nah, just thought I would ask you how things are going. You're doing awesomely, right?"

Canada laughed slightly at the question in the cute little way which she had developed before saying, "Yes I'm doing alright. Yesterday's work was long because of taking Valentine's Day off, but other than that everything is like normal."

"That's good. So anyways I was thinking that you could stop by next weekend and then we could do something special together. This time really together," Prussia said while trying to act like his usual self. Deep down, he was not so sure if he really liked the goofy way he sometimes acted around Canada; especially when she seemed to like his more casual self more.

"I'd love that. Is it alright if I stay with Germany?" Canada said enthusiastically.

"Ya, why wouldn't it be? So then you'll come?" Prussia asked pleased with the way Canada said the first part.

"Of course I'll come. I'll see you in a few days then, okay?" Canada said happily.

"Great, I'll see you then…and before we go, I love you," Prussia said, gradually growing softer as he finished his sentence.

Canada paused slightly due to surprise at the proclamation before saying, "I love you too Prussia. And I'll see you soon. Bye, sweetie."

With this Canada and Prussia hung up, both of them feeling happy that they would be able to see eachother again. Little did they know that things were not going to go as smoothly as they wished.
