O/3/O

I woke up groggy and in pain. Ugh, my back hurts from this damn couch. And stupid Kiku! He made the pain greater than it was! I swore I heard him laughing when he heard me yell in pain. That demon! I thought hastily. I got up and was about to turn the doorknob on the door opened. The door hit me square on the face and I fell back because of the impact.

"Mein gott Arthur! Vhat are you doing standing up? Are you alright though?" He asked, feeling guilty for hitting me in the face.

"Ish phine Ludwig." I said as I covered up my face because of the pain. "Anyways, I should hurry up to Francis. I need to ask him something. See you guys later." I left Ludwig's place, leaving the three of them alone.

"Francis? He just said Francis. I wonder vhat's so important…" Ludwig said.

"I'm not sure Ludwig-san, but whatever it is, it is very important to Arthur-san. It's best if we don't interfere." Stated Kiku.

"Alright. I think I'm going to get some rest. You two should too. Especially you, Bruder."

"Get that stick out of your ass and lighten up! You're acting like a grandpa who hasn't ever gotten laid." Gilbert said, smirking as he saw Ludwig go stiff. But then Gilbert had a face of pure horror as Ludwig turned around, looking ready to kill the guy. Gilbert immediately ran upstairs into his room and locked the door while Ludwig ran up and started banging on his door.

Kiku sighed. "Guess I'll leave them alone." He left the house, hearing last the profanities Ludwig was screaming at Gilbert.

O/3/O

I knocked on Francis's door, and he opened up. "Angleterre! What are you doing here on this lovely day, oui?" He stepped out of the way to let me inside.

"I need to ask you something." I asked.

"And what would that be?" He replied, noting my serious tone.

"I need to go to France with you." That comment made France fall out of his seat, literally.

"A-Arthur. You're serious? Why?" He asked.

"I need to find someone there. He lives in the city you and your parents live in, which is Paris. I HAVE to find him, no matter what it takes." I replied softly.

Francis looked at me in surprise, and then gave a soft smile to me, knowing why. "L'amour, isn't it a wonderful zing?"

I looked at Francis, about to deny it, but then sighed. "It is. I'm surprised that I found love like that, but I don't care. Alfred means everything to me."

"I'll see what strings I can pull, but listen mon ami, don't lose sight of yourself. One can make you do zings zat you might regret in the future."

"I'm perfectly capable of protecting myself you bloody frog!" I yelled.

"Ohonhonhon~ What's with the yelling? Maybe you're getting shy around moi?" As Francis said that, he scooted a little closer to me than I would like. My eye twitched as I felt him feeling up my leg. I punched the guy in the face, hard enough to make him clutch his face with both hands. "Le gasp! Y-You hurt my beautiful face!" He fell on to the ground dramatically, clutching his face.

"I wonder why I come to you for help. You always do perverted things to me that makes me so angry!" I pinched my nose and sighed. "I'm going to go see Alfred now. Goodbye Francis, and thank you for helping me." I said, truly sincere. I left Francis there on the ground, smiling to himself like the doofus he was.

O/3/O

"ARTIE!" Alfred yelled, and he practically glomped me.

"Argh!" I yelled, for I fell down on the ground. "Get off me you bloody git!" I said, flustered.

"Hahahaha! Artie is just jelly that I can tackle you down!" Alfred boasted.

"Al, I can knock you down as easily as you knocked me down." I said, staring at him, waiting for him to say what I know he'll say.

"Oh yeah? Well do it then! I would like to see you try!" Alfred said, staring at me with that stupid grin of his, just daring me to prove him wrong.

"You asked for it." I said with a smirk, stepping back a few steps. I then ran with full speed and knocked him down easily, knocking the wind out of him.

"Ouch…Damn Artie. For a little thing, you pack a punch!" He exclaimed.

"Haha told you that I co-Wait. You just called me a little thing." I glared at him.

"Oh c'mon! Lighten up! You know that I didn't mean it like that~ You know I love you Artie~" And he ruffled my hair, making me huff.

"Anyways, would you like to stay over at my place for a week? I think you should see what my place looks like, and it'll be fun to hang around and such. N-Not that I missed you or anything! It's just that it's what friends do and I wanted to help and…" I shut up because I noticed was rambling.

Alfred looked at me, shocked. Then he had a sly grin and put his head right next to mine.

"So Arthur, what will we be doing when I come over?" He said near my ear, making me shiver from god knows what.

"Uh…I don't know. Maybe play some games?" The instant I said it I immediately regretted my choice of words.

"Oh~ And what games did you have in mind for us?" He smirked as he saw my face flush red.

"Y-You FOOL!" Smack. "Do NOT embarrass me like this! You know very bloody well what I meant! NOT anything dirty or lustful or ANYTHING of the sort!" I yelled, blushing furiously.

"Ow! That hurt Artie! You hit me!" Alfred said. "You hit me…WHY YOU NO CARE ABOUT ME ANYMORES!" He yelled, clearly kidding around for he was biting his lips to control his laughter.

"Why am I always stuck with the idiots?" I asked to no one in particular. Sighing, I pinched the bridge of my nose. "So, back to the main topic. Will you be staying over?"

"Sure! It would be fun and we could hang and have some burgers and-"

"Wait. Burgers? You like those bloody grease foods?"

"YEAH! When I stayed here, they gave me some burgers when they felt nice. When I tasted 'em, I thought it was THE MOST wonderful thing IN THE WORLD!"

"That's lovely. Now, when would you like to come over?"

"Now."

"Now?" I spluttered.

"Yes, now." He beamed at me and I knew that I couldn't reject him.

"Alright. Oh, I have a question. You don't have anywhere to live, correct?"

"Yuuuuup." Alfred sighed. "Why?" he said, staring at me, tilting his head in a cute way that made me think of pouncing on him then and there.

"Would…you like to stay at my place then? As your home? I don't really mind. I have an extra bedroom in my place. You don't really have to pay rent, I got it completely covered. Saved up a lot in the bank." I said, a little bit nervous of his answer.

He just stared at me with a blank expression, but then he smiled genuinely at me. "I would love to stay with you. It would be an honor on my part." He smiled that million-watt smile and I nearly squealed, but gentlemen do NOT squeal, under no circumstances. "Oh! What about food?" That was a stupid question to ask. Well, to me anyways.

"Don't worry, I also got it covered. I have a lot of money on my debit card and in cash, so we should be fine. Like I said, I have everything under control." I noticed that it got quiet so I looked for Alfred, noticing that he wasn't in front of me anymore. "Alfred? You the-" Bam! My face had the most stunned expression. My eyes opened wide and my mouth opened a little. In all, I was speechless.

I looked at the ground and I saw a pillow. I looked up and I saw nothing. "A pillow?" I said, still stunned. "But…I don't see anyone that thre-" Bam! Got hit in the back of the head with one. I turned around immediately and saw no one! Profanities started leaking out of my mouth.

"Who the bloody fuck is throwing these pillows at me?" I yelled. I got hit again on the side of my face and I looked ready to bloody castrate someone.

"Gilbert, Alfred, why don't we leave poor Angleterre alone? He seems to be very pissed." I heard that obnoxious frog behind me so I turned around. I spotted the three of them, sitting on the bed.

"Is that true Artie? You mad bro?" Alfred asked.

"I'm not mad, Alfred." I said through clenched teeth.

"See? He isn't ma-" But he was interrupted.

"Not mad. I am down right LIVID! And the nearest person is going to get punched SO hard that they will be knocked into next year!" I jumped on the nearest person, and that happened to be Gilbert.

"Ugh! Totally NOT awesome! GUYS! HELP ME! HE IS GOING TO FUCKING MURDER ME!" Gilbert screamed, seeing the look on my face. I started laughing evilly and crazily.

Alfred and Francis both paled at my laugh and immediately ran. "Dude, you are SO on your own here! It was your idea! Good luck!" Alfred yelled back at Gilbert.

"Hahahahahaa! Now your mine. Get ready to suffer, Prussia." Yup, he was really pissed, Gilbert thought. He never uses our country names unless he is extremely pissed. Which means that I 'm a goner.

O/3/O

Alfred was with Francis when I returned with a Gilbert dragged behind me.

"Is he," Gulp. "You know, dead?" Alfred asked. I scoffed at this.

"Of course not. I would be charged with bloody assault and murder if I did. He is just unconscious at the moment. Should be awake in a couple of hours." I said with a smirk

"Mon ami, you went easy on him!" Francis exclaimed. "Moi is so proud!"

"Oh shut up, frog." I muttered. "Anyway, let's go Al. We need to take you shopping. And Francis, come with us. We will need a bunch of help carrying bags."

"Why are we going shopping?" Alfred asked.

"To buy you clothes." I stated, as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. "You need clothes if you're going to start living with me. For now, you're only staying for a week. But when you get discharged from here, you will be living with me since you agreed."

"Ah okay! But, why now?"

"Better to get it over with than have the hassle in the future. Now, let's go!"

O/3/O

So, the shopping went for 5 bloody hours! We had so many bags, but it was all worth it for the git was smiling his arse off.

"Artie! Thank you so much! But, we bought a lot."

"Well, yeah. Of course we bought a lot. Everything is for you." I said, a scowl on my face for Francis was mouthing something very, ahem, disturbing to me.

"It was really expensive though! I mean, all the clothes we bought…Altogether, the prce was over 2,000 fucking dollars! I mean, SERIOUSLY! What highschooler, especially a SOPHMORE, affords clothes that cost that much?"

"I can. And all those clothes cost that much because we went to a store that makes the clothes for you. Be lucky that they make the clothes bigger than the actual size so it would fit more better and maybe fit you when growing older."

"It's two sizes bigger. That's just big."

"My clothes are like that too, yet they look perfectly fine."

"Your clothes are very different than your personality. I mean, you look like a punk rock! Well, sort of. Most teens our age wear stuff like those. But you're a gentleman! You're not SUPPOSED to wear those clothing!" Alfred whined, making me irritated.

"I agree with you there, Alfred. Angleterre's clothes are not what you expect. Yet they do look good on him. Now now, don't glare at me Arthur. As I was saying, some clothes are punk rock, and there

"Oh shut the feck up Al. Leave me and my choice of clothes alone. Everyone tells me the same thing you do, but they also say that still look good in it, which I am perfectly fine with."

"Whateves. We there yet?"

"Yes, we arrived. Let's go in the elevator now, shall we?" The three of us arrived in the building. We went to the 5th floor and headed to room 505. I unlocked the door and went inside. "Welcome to my kingdom. Not much, but make yourself at home. Here, give me all the bags and I'll set up Alfred's room." I got everything and went in the room while Alfred and Francis marveled at how clean, big, and nice everything is.

"This must be the most expensive place on the floor. The view is great, the place is huge, everything's clean and all the furniture and crap looks expensive as hell." Alfred stated, amazed.

"Yes it is. This is the first time he has ever let me inside his place since he moved to this place." Francis looked around, and he noticed something sticking out of the trash can. "Why, look at this." He picked up what appeared to be a torn shirt with blood on it.

"Holy shit…Is that blood on the shirt?"

"I believe it is. And this must be Arthur's shirt…Damn. They must really want him." Francis said, completely worried and serious.

"What do you mean? Why would someone want Arthur, more or less hurt him? I mean, Arthur is just cool and he doesn't deserve any of this! Arthur is just..Just.."

"FROG! Put that back in the trash THIS INSTANT!" Arthur yelled. "And before you freak out on me, let me explain. You see, Ivan Braginski has returned. Alfred, Ivan is a Russian guy who was after one of my friends, who happens to be my history teacher, Yao Wang. We went through hell protecting Yao, and Ivan managed to get to me. A fight broke out between him and I. Let's just say that we both ended up at the hospital and couldn't leave for 2 weeks. For me, I left early since I was stubborn. Anyways, he is back because he is after me. He probably wants me to "Become one with Mother Russia," aka, become his. Yesterday, or I think it was yesterday, his crazy sister, Natasha, attacked me. I was injured but I should be fine." I lifted up my shirt, showing the bandages that soon had blood on it. "Ah, I need to fix them later. Oh well. And yeah, that is pretty much it." I finished.

Alfred look angry after what I told him. No, not angry, but pissed as hell. "I'm am going to kill that Russian bastard! He will NOT take you away! Not if I have anything to say about it." Alfred's eyes was full of cold and hate, which surprisingly looked attractive on him in a way.

"Don't worry about it love. Everything will be fine. I will let you know if anything happens, alright? Please calm down." I soothed, hoping to calm his nerves a little. It worked and he became more relaxed.

"You better tell me." He muttered.

"Please let everyone know for now on, Arthur. Everybody in the Union Jack must know if our Britannia is getting targeted." Francis said.

"Alright alright!" I snapped. "Don't get sappy with me please! I don't like it. Makes me feel all weird."

"AHAHAHA! Artie, you're hilarious!" Alfred fell over laughing, and Francis and I could only stare, wondering if he had gone crazy.

"Anyways, want to go see your room? I actually had painted it and finished it before I even asked you, just in case you said yes." I said, blushing slightly. Francis noticed and smirked. He then went in the kitchen to find something to eat, leaving the two lovebirds alone.

"But what if I said no?" Alfred asked, noticing the blush on my face and smiling.

"I know you. You would've said yes." I admitted, blushing harder. He pulled me into a hug.

"Thanks Artie. I really appreciate it."

"Yeah yeah, just go see your room you git."

"Alrighty!" Off to the room we went. Francis joined along and the two of them gasped. The wall was painted like the American flag and everything was to Alfred's liking. The bed, posters, t.v., EVERYTHING that Alfred liked was there. "OH MY GOD! I LOVE IT!" he screamed, jumping on the bed and turning around like a little child.

"Glad you love it." I smiled.

"You should look at Angeleterre's room! His room is sort of like yours, but his is British style." Francis said, slightly amused.

"Seriously? I wanna look!" Alfred dashed away from his room and immediately went to mine. I strolled in just as Alfred was looking at everything, even my clothes.

"Gah! You git! Out of my closet!" I exclaimed, trying to pry him out.

"Dude, your clothes are pretty cool and hot." Alfred stated out of nowhere, causing me to blush immensely.

"I will take my leave now. It is almost 8 at night. Good night, mon ami~" Francis said, walking out the doorway.

"G'night frog."

"Nighty night Francy! Artie, this room is so cool! I love my room too!"

"Stop calling me Artie! It's Arthur!"

"Jeez, fine Iggy." I froze.

"…Iggy?"

"Yeah…?"

"I don't even want to know. Just call me Artie, please. I prefer that instead of Iggy."

"Ahaha! Alright Artie!"

"You fool!" And what Alfred did next made me roar with laughter. From that anime Soul Eater, he did that face that everyone makes when Excalibur talks about his past story.

"Goodness, you sound like Excalibur when you say 'You fool' Artie. Excalibur is like, the most ANNOYING thing in the universe!" He started laughing too because I was laughing.

"Your face…It was priceless! Ah, exactly the face from those faeries and Black Star. That was a good laugh. Haven't laughed like that in forever." I wiped my eyes and smiled. "Let's get ready for bed love. It's kind of late."

"Mmkay!" Alfred went in the bathroom first, and found he had everything he needed for living with Arthur. Arthur really prepared everything, He thought. As he got out of the bathroom, he went into the kitchen to get some water as I went into the bathroom.

Alfred turned around after getting some water and noticed a girl in the living. "AHHH! STRANGER!" Alfred yelled and I immediately came out of the bathroom.

"Stranger? Oh, she isn't a stranger. She's my maid, Michelle. Michelle, this is Alfred. He will be living here in the future, but as of right now, he is staying over for the week. Sorry for the extra work. I can always still pay you, you know." I exclaimed gently.

"It's fine Arthur! I don't mind at all. Besides, I don't need the money. I like working for you for free. Also, someone needs to save you for food. You can barely cook!" Michelle laughed as I turned beet red. Alfred just raised an eyebrow in confusion. "Ah, Alfred. You see, Arthur can't cook at all. Somehow he makes everything taste weird, even when making something as simple as eggs. They end up a weird purplish color. So there's a warning of his cooking."

"Oh shush Michelle." She just laughed.

"Oh, I live right across from you guys, just to let you know Alfred. Anyways, have a good night!" She left, and we were left alone.

"Well, let's go to sleep now." I was on my room before Alfred grabbed my hand and turned me around. He hugged me gently then kissed me on my nose.

"Sweet dreams and beautiful nightmares Artie." He said softly, smiling down at me.

"You too Al." I said, blushing like a little girl. I've been blushing a lot today. Damn. Oh well. I hugged him back and kissed him on the cheek, returning the gesture. We went to our rooms and slept. The both of us thought a single thought at the same time.

I love you Artie/Al.
