Chibi Romano was sweeping the floor. He grumbled and mumbled.

"That stupido face Spain. I'a can't believe he wants me to clean! What point is in to it, eh?! He'sa just going to mess it up again," he said. He swept around the bookshelf, but he accidentally knocked it down with his broom. Chibi Romano screamed and jumped away. He sighed and tried lifting it up. But the bookshelf was too heavey for his chibi hands. Chibi Romano sighed again and picked up the books that fell. Something golden fell out of one of the books. Chibi Romano looked down and saw a gold ring that was attached to a chain. Chibi Romano picked it up and examined it. Then he popped it in his mouth. After nearly choking on it, he spat it out.

"It'sa defiantly not candy. Too rusty and hard. I wonder what it is?" he said. He noticed the ring had a writing on it. Chibi Romano was surprised that the words were still readable.

"Forever yours. Elena," the boy read. After reading it, Chibi Romano burst into anger, "I'a can't believe that Spaniard is'a still seeing that- aghhhhh!" he screamed as he ran away to hi room and slammed the door.

Spain straitened his tie and gulped. He promised Romano that Elena would only be a friend from now on, but-

"I'a hope she doesn't get mad at me," he said as he rubbed his head. He took a deep breath and knocked on her door. Elena opened it and she smiled happily.

"Spain! I knew you'd come!" She said as she threw her arms around Spain's neck. Spain smiled.

"Si, but you asked me to come, remember? I'a need to talk to you," he said. They sat down at a table and Spain took her hand.

"Elena...I'a made a promise to Romano. I'a know you've been hoping and praying for it but..."

"But what?" Elena said. Spain ran a hand through his air, trying to figure out a way not to upset her. He sighed and looked up at her.

"We can't date anymore," he said. Elena stared at him.

"What?" she couldn't believe her ears, "but I thought..."

"Si, I'a know. I wanted to be with you too. But Romano got pretty upset yesterday, and-"

"But, Spain, you promised me that we would be together after the war!" Elena said. Spain nodded.

"Si, I'a did. But that was years ago. Times have changed for me, and Romano-"

"Romano!Romano!Romano! Everything Romano! Don't you have feelings of your own, Spain?! Or was all of our love nothing but a lie to you!" Elena said as tears started to sting her eyes.

"No, Elena. I'a do love you-" Spain said as he stood and tried to pull her into an embrace. But Elena pushed him away.

"No, Spain. If you never wanted to see me again, you could at least come out and tell me the truth! I'm sick of your lies! Go away!" She said as she pushed Spain out the door and slammed it.

"But I'a didn't say we couldn't still be friends!" Spain called, but Elena didn't open the door. Spain sighed and walked away from her doorstep.

Spain opened the door and sighed. Chibi Romano walked up to him.

"Hey, Spaniard, fix'a me coffee!" he demanded.

"Fix it yourself!" Spain replied, anger in his tone. Chibi Romano stared at Spain in shock. Was Spain mad? He was always cherry and happy. This was all knew to Romano, but he had a feeling he shouldn't bother Spain at the moment. Chibi Romano looked away.

"I'a don't need it," Then he ran away to his room. Spain sat down at the table and buried his face in his hands. He was so frustrated and heartbroken that he didn't noticed the casa was still a mess.

Meanwhile, Chibi Romano didn't understand why Spain was upset. He usually didn't care what the mustard felt like, but it still bothered him. It wasn't normal for Spain to be acting like this.

Elena sat with her back to the door. Even hours after Spain left, she was still sitting there. She was crying and had her face in her hands. Then she noticed a photo of she and Spain on the wall. It was when they were younger of curse. Elena sighed and stared at the photo as tears streamed down her lovely face. The pain in her chest wouldn't go away. She loved Spain with all her heart. How could she be so stupid? She stood up and opened the door. It didn't matter if Romano didn't like her. She loved Spain and that was all that mattered.

Spain sat on his bed that night. He still had this sad, far away look in his eyes. He sighed sadly.

"Elena would be much happier without me in her life. I'ma probably going to regret it later, but I'a promised Romano," He was about to shut off the light, but the door opened and Chibi Romano glared at him. Spain smiled, but Romano knew it was a fake smile.

"Romano, I'a thought you were in bed," he said. Chibi Romano didn't say anything, but walked up to him. He blushed.

"Hey, mustard. I'a- you're'a upset about something. And I'a want to know why," he said. Spain picked him up and gave him a snuggle.

"Don't worry about it, Nino. Go back to bed, okay?"

"No! Tell me what's on your mind!" Romano demanded.

"Well, Elena is very upset with me. She doesn't want to talk to me," Spain said. Romano listened and sighed. Then he hopped off.

"That'sa what I'a figured. Look, Spaniard, could you for once not listen to me?" he said. Spain stared at him.

"But I'a want you to be happy, Romano,"

"So? That'a doesn't mean you can't listen to your own feelings! If you'a like that stupido lady then go ahead and marry her, eh?!"

"But, Romano-"

"Shut up! I'a don't mind having a mama. Besides, Elena's not so bad," the brat said as he blushed and looked away. Spain stared at him a moment, then his eyes started to twinkle. It almost made Romano puke.

"I'a knew you would come around to like her eventually," Spain smiled. The doorbell rang and Spain and a worried, confused look on his face.

"Who could that be at this hour?" Spain said as he got up and walked to the door. He opened it and saw Elena in the doorway. Spain's eyes grew in shook.

"Elena?"

"Spain! I'm so sorry! I've should have just listened to you!" She cried.

"Forget about it, okay?" Spain smiled, "I'a love you." Elena threw her arms around Spain's neck and they kissed. Chibi Romano blushed and looked away.

"Stupido Spaniard and lady, kissing in front of a child, eh?" but he smiled.

A Few weeks later

Spain was rudely awakened by Romano jumping on his stomach.

"Get up, Spaniard! I'a want my breakfast and coffee!" he glared at the person sleeping next to Spain, "and you, Elena!" he trailed off as she awoke and just looked happy. Romano blushed and ran away.

"Never mind," he said. Elena giggled. Spain smiled and kissed his wife.

"Elena-"

"Hey, Mustard! I'a want some coffee!" Romano demanded. Spain sighed and shook his head.

"Ai yi yi, it'sa still the same with him," he said. Elena smiled and giggled.

"I'll do it this time," she offered. She got out of bed and walked to the kitchen. She started the pancakes and coffee. Romano frowned.

"Where's the Spaniard, eh?!"

"I'm making breakfast this time," Elena smiled. She placed the plate of pancakes in front of Romano. Romano took a bite out of his breakfast and looked shocked. Elena looked worried.

"Did I over cook the pancakes?"

"No. They'rea just fine," Romano blushed. The pancakes were perfect! But Romano hid his happy expression, "What about my coffee?!"

"Coming right up," Elena smiled. She gave Romano his coffee. Romano took a sip out of it and looked surprised again. Even the coffee was perfect!

"You'rea lot better than the Spaniard," Romano complemented. Elena laughed. Romano never understood that. What was it about a woman's touch? It didn't matter to him. He had to admit that he liked Elena. And she definitely won his stomach's heart. Spain walked in, looking groggy. But when he smelled the eggs and pancakes, his grogging-ness disappeared and he smiled. Elena walked up to him and kissed him on the cheek.

"It'll be ready in a minute," she smiled. Spain rubbed his nose to hers.

"Thanks a bunch," he said. Romano blushed.

"Yeah, thanks for the food," he said. Spain stared at him in shock. He never thanked anyone for anything before. Elena smiled.

"No problem!" she sang.
