Hey guys, it seems that you people are thinking of what i think you are thinking which is what you think i am thinking, but is actually not what i am thinking... You... Get it right? See, there won't be HongIce in this story, none at all! In the official manga slips, Hong kong DOES interact with Iceland quite often. So, there is absolutely nothing wrong with me writing about them!
Don't worry dear-lies, this is a HKUK and USUK story, stop freaking out. QAQ
Anyway~
England stared at the piece of note he made yesterday, and sighed. It has been a week since the opening of the Candy Cafe and everything was doing fine. Hong Kong managed to master the perfect smile before Poland broke down and Iceland... Let's just say that Norway stepped in, and now Iceland did not have to worry about smiling anymore. He hates to admit it, but France's idea of having two guys dress up as maids was not exactly that bad. Yes, it was completely weird and out-of-this-world, but it was actually popular with the girls! In fact, it was one of the main reasons why the cafe was always filled with girls around 13 to 20++
But that was not why he was sighing. The source of his depression, could only be linked to a call he got last night, from some big-shot customer.
Said customer wanted to book the cafe for a whole day to hold a reunion party of some sort. This was great news for the cafe, since it would bring quite a handsome earning. But there was one problem; they would be serving a total of 15 people. Which means the mere two workers now would definitely not be enough, and England did not want to deal with either China or Norway for working Hong Kong or Iceland to death...
Then, there was the one condition that person conveniently left: he wanted to see real female maids.
Real. Female. Maids.How the bloody hell will that even be possible?
"Huh? Real female maids?" France said as he nodded his disapproval. "England, England, England, you still don't get it, do you? Big brother would love to see the girls in the adorable maid costumes, but it is impossible!"
"What do you mean, impossible? Go ask the others! Recruit new members! How hard can that be, you git?" England snarled.
"Well, why don't you give it a go instead of just talking big? Big brother tried, alright?" France exclaimed, sounding more panic-stricken as he continued. "But Russia started emitting scary purple aura right after I asked for Ukraine and Belarus to work here, and Hungary simply whacked my beautiful and charming face with her pan!" France looked like he was about to cry. "Mon dieu, don't even get me started about Switzerland!..."
England thought about it for a few moments... France might actually be right. Almost every female nation has a scary brother watching after her, and he was sure China would never let Taiwan or Vietnam here either. Can't blame them, if he had a younger sister instead of that hamburger idiot, he would not let her work for France too.
...Now, what? Should he just ring the person and tell him that the cafe cannot take the order?
"Good afternoon, France-san, I have brought the cakes that you ordered," Japan greeted as he entered the cafe, carrying two large boxes in his hands. Immediately taking notice of England's less-than-stellar mood, he asked, "Is everything alright England-san? You look troubled."
"Oui, thanks for delivering them to me, they are very popular with the young ladies nowadays~ Oh, and England is just getting horny and wants real female maids," France mocked as England gave him a hard knock on the head.
"Who is the bloody horny one here? I need the female maids for the event!" England snapped, and "explained" the situation to Japan and France.
"I see... No wonder you are so worried, this is indeed a hard task." Japan nodded sympathetically.
"But this really is a good money earning chance! England! You are not going to give up on this just because of the small obstacle right?" France's eyes were sparkling by now.
"I will see what i can do. But there really is nothing much! You don't expect me to make them magically appear out of thin air, right?" England complained.
"...There are many instances where male characters in some of my manga would dress as girls and look flawless... but i am afraid we could not do that either." Japan sighed.'
"Well... I could talk to Spain about Belgium, but one of you will have to deal with Holland." France was willing to die for this.
"We will pass. That guy is impossibl-. Wait a minute," Struck by a sudden and yet brilliant idea, England clapped his hands together and announced, "I may not be able to make them appear out of thin air, but i do have another way of getting things to work!"
"Hey guy! The hero is here!" Suddenly, a energetic and loud voice blasted in the cafe as America entered the house with... A bear behind him...?
"De- America! Will you stop shouting? I am going to get deaf someday and it will be your fault!" England scolded as America came their way, the bear closely following behind.
"Ahahaha, the reason you will get deaf is because of your old age!" America laughed and gave England a friendly pat on the shoulder.
"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU CALLING OLD YOU IDIOT?" England protested as America laughed it off.
"Ah, i see the noisy one is here." Hong Kong said in his sarcastic tone as he walked out of the kitchen, changed out of his maid costume.
Upon the sight of Hong Kong, America's carefree expression suddenly became tensed up as he immediately shifted to a position where he was standing between Hong Kong and England. Meanwhile, Hong Kong simply leaned against a table and stared back with a relaxed grin on his face. In Japan's opinion, the scene was very familiar to how a hen would protect her chick from the cats... Except in this face, the chick probably did not need any protection.
France noticed the weird atmosphere between the two and turned to look at England, hoping to get some answers. but England was busy looking though his phone instead of noticing anything... France just had the strangest thought that England may have contributed in America's inability to read the atmosphere...
"Oii England, who are you calling anyway?" France asked as England pressed the 'call' button on his phone.
"Hmm? I am trying to get to Canada, hopefully he has his phone beside him. France, help me call China and Norway to-"
England was interrupted by a loud ring tone, coming from right beside...
"Ca-Canada?" England almost jumped when he finally realized the presence of the gentle and soft Nation beside him. "How long have you been here?"
"I came in with America..." Canada smiled helplessly as he bent down to hug his bear, who was standing beside him.
"Who are you?" The bear looked up at its owner with a blur expression.
"I am Canada."
