Chapter 12
-"I can't believe it took so long time" Francis suddenly laughs. He had entered the house without neither Feliciano nor Ludwig noticed him. Quickly they pulled away from each other but Ludwig kept Feliciano's hand in his.
-"Don't just run in like that" Ludwig stutters, blushing so much that his face looked like a tomato.
-"You could have turned so you were in profile to the window" Francis says and walks further in with a tail of the rest of the group after him, "we had just the view of Italy's back, it sucked"
-"Yeah, profile would have been better" Arthur says and pops up from the back of Francis.
-"My ship just got canon" Japan says happily as he also pops up.
-"Just stop it guys" Ludwig says again still blushing.
The others laughed and so the days passed. The storm was still too strong for the helicopter to take them home but they were just fine. Ludwig had never thought he would feel as happy as he did during those storm days in Russia with his friends, and his one and only. The day passed with joy and sometimes they went outside if the storm wasn't too hard. After a week had passed there was not much food and water left and the storm refused to go away. Even though they were happy Ludwig was truly worried. One day he woke up before everyone else as usual but there was something strange.
He slowly started to look over the food so they all could have a normal breakfast. The others didn't really know how bad it was but they all knew that it wasn't much left. Suddenly he stops, it's so quiet….
Slowly he turns around to watch out of the window. The wind that had made the trees bend outside was gone and he could see the blue sky. Carefully without waking the other up he sneaks to the door and opens it.
Outside was as he saw through the window. The sun shined and he couldn't hear the wind anywhere. The coldness was gone and replaced with what seemed to be a spring wind.
-"Idiot close the door, it's freezing cold asshole" Francis mumbles behind him.
Ludwig closes the door and turns around. Everyone was awake and looked up on him with sleepy eyes. After Feliciano had waked up after they found him they offered everyone that they would also sleep on the floor but they insisted that they would have the bed.
-"We can leave" he says shocked.
They all suddenly looked awake and stared out through the door on the sunny weather. All of their faces showed happiness and relief.
-"Yes!" Francis shouts.
-"What's going on?" a little voice says from the back of the room. Feliciano didn't wake up of the cold wind but Francis shout had waked him up.
-"We can finally go home" Ludwig says with a smile as he walks up to Feliciano in the bed.
-"Really?" the chocolate brown eyes looked up and into Ludwig's heavenly blue with pure happiness.
-"Yes" Ludwig answers with a smile.
Feliciano throws himself up from the bed and into Ludwig's arms. Ludwig swings him around in the room and them both laughs into each other's arms.
-"Can we go now?" Italy asks with his arms still around Ludwig's neck. His eyes shined and Ludwig felt how his stomach went warm of the feelings he had for this man.
-"We need to pack" Ludwig says and smiles.
-"And we need to get ready" Roderich says suddenly standing behind them, smiling.
-"Right! I can cook something on the last things we have left while you pack, please Luddy?" the Italian begs calling Ludwig by Italy's nickname for him.
-"Fine" he says and sighs, "But not too much! We maybe need some later on"
Everyone helped each other to get all the things ready. Suddenly Feliciano started to sing a song Roderich had taught him before. They all knew the song and one by one they started to sing and the little cottage was suddenly filled with singing voices. The only one who didn't sing was Ludwig who just looked at his friends with pleasure. This journey had brought them all together in a way that nothing else could. Ludwig couldn't help but feel that without what his friends had done to him and Feliciano they would never come together. He has to make up to them somehow one day.
-"So where will Alfred meet us?" Ludwig asks when they stand inside the now empty cottage. It was a lot bigger without all the bags and sleeping bags. When silence fell they could feel the loneliness that was in the cottage before they arrived.
-"I'm going to miss this place" Feliciano wined and grabbed Ludwig's arm.
-"Me too" Ludwig said and took Feliciano's hand.
-"We maybe can visit this place someday" Francis said and nodded.
-"Yeah… and bring the others too" Arthur said, smiling.
-"It's a bit small though" Roderich says and looks around, "but we can always build this cottage bigger.
-"Is that all right?" Kiku asks Ivan unsure. After all it was he who knew about this place in the first place.
-"Da, it's fine" he says and this time his smile wasn't like it used to be. It seems to be a real smile for once. They all share the smiles but then suddenly Ludwig's radio beeps.
-"Alfred here, go to the place now. I will be there in about a half hour" the radio says in a static voice.
Ludwig takes it up and pushes the button to speak.
-"Roger that, we're on the way" he says shortly in the radio and then puts it back into his pocket.
-"We need to go then" Roderich says and opens the door. Without saying anything more they picked up their stuff and started to walk.
Feliciano held Ludwig's hand as they walked through the forest. So much had changed in this country between them all. Even if Francis wouldn't say it out loud he has respect for Ludwig and Arthur after this trip. The hate between them have disappeared and replaced with friendship even though the fights which still exist, but not as serious as before.
-"Luddy" Feliciano says and looks up at Ludwig.
-"Yes" he says and smiles down to Feliciano.
-"What we have now will continue when we come home right?" he says a bit worried.
Suddenly Ludwig stops and turns around so he faces Feliciano. He slowly puts his hands on Feliciano's cheeks with blue eyes staring into his worried brown eyes. The ice cold blueness that Ludwig eyes had before was gone and replaced with sparkles which made his eyes look like a beautiful blue day sky with stars. The others heard what they said and turned around to watch what would happen.
-"Deep inside me I've always wanting to hold your hand in school, to kiss you in my couch while we watch a movie and go out to a restaurant" Ludwig smiles, "never before have I felt the happiness I can feel now, never in life will I ever let you go again"
Slowly he leant down and brought Feliciano's face to his. Once again he kissed him with gentle lips and Feliciano throws his arms around Ludwig. The others could feel the warmth between them and they all knew that this was a couple that never will part.
