It was about 3 in the morning when the rain let up. Italy awoke before Ocean did. He decided not to wake her and quietly left.
He returned to her house later that day. He greeted his girlfriend with a hug and a cheerful " Ciao Ocean!"
"Hello Feli!" Ocean replied.
"Sorry about leaving before you woke up," Italy said, guiltily.
"It's alright, Feli," Ocean said.
"Would you like to come visit my house today?" Italy asked.
"Yeah, that sounds like fun," Ocean said. Italy took her hand and led her towards his house.
"By the way, can I call you Kai?" Italy asked as they walked.
"Of course you can," Ocean said, blushing at Italy's use of her name.
"We're here, Kai!" Italy said, cheerfully. They were in front of a large red, green, and white house.
"It's painted in the colors of your flag, Feli," Ocean laughed.
"Si, Romano and I had fun painting it!" Italy said with a smile. He pulled Ocean inside. It was huge on the inside with multiple narrow hallways leading off the entrance way. Italy pulled Ocean down one of the hallways, taking impossibly small corners. He stopped in a hallway with two doors, one on each side.
"That's Romano's room, Kai," Italy said,"Let's not go in there!"
"I take it he doesn't like trespassers?" Ocean asked.
"Si," Italy said,"This is my room." He opened the opposite door and revealed a warmly lit room full of bright colors.
"Feli, it's beautiful!" Ocean said, walking into the room.
"Grazie!" Italy said," My grandpa Rome built the house."
"Do you think we could make some pasta?" Ocean asked a few minutes later.
"Si! I'd love to!" Italy said, kissing Ocean on the cheek. He grabbed her hand again and pulled her to the large kitchen. He showed Ocean how to make pasta, standing behind her and controlling her movements, the sailor blushing all the while.
