Title: Pretzels
Pairing(s): PruCan
I decided to make them countries instead of doing a human AU, because I'm one of those analytical people that go "ok, so he's seen him around before so he's going to go shopping with him even though they've never really had a conversation before? The heck?"
Canada was looking through some clothes at a department store in the mall, trying to find something new to wear to an upcoming party. Not that anyone would notice what he was wearing anyway. Oh, well. At least he knew he would look decent. He had just finished picking out an outfit to try on when he felt a tap on his shoulder. Turning around he was greeted by crimson eyes and a wide smile, belonging to a particular albino ex-nation.
"Oh…hi Prussia," he managed to stumble out.
"Hey, Canada! What are you up to?"
"Just shopping…"
"Me too! Hey, you know what'd be awesome?"
"Not really…pancakes maybe?"
"No! Well yes, but not what I was thinking. We should shop together!"
"Oh…ok…"
And so, Prussia, with no concern at all for Canada's clothes shopping, grabbed him by the wrist and pulled him out of the store without even giving him time to set down the clothes he was holding in his hands. Canada ended up dropping them on the floor, and apologizing to the girl at the desk, who just gave him a sympathetic look.
They entered another store that sold lots of random little things. Canada was instantly drawn to a small bird stuffed animal.
"It looks kind of like your bird," he said to Prussia.
"You're right! It does! It's so cute! I will buy this awesome bird toy!" Prussia then proceeded to buy it and drag Canada to another store. Canada was confused by this, considering they hadn't even been there for two minutes, but he followed without complaint.
They went to several other stores, within the next half hour, just like this; staying a couple of minutes, and leaving after Prussia found something he wanted to buy. Canada didn't even remember why he had come to the mall in the first place. But he was having a blast, despite Prussia's eccentrics. Maybe because of them. Who knows?
Eventually, Prussia stopped and just stood there for a couple of seconds. He released Canada's wrist and got a thoughtful look on his face.
"Do you smell that?" he asked.
"Smell what?"
"Pretzels. I smell Pretzels."
"Pretzels are nice but I'm not really that hungry…"was Canada's response.
"But I am. Would you mind if I had one?" Canada nodded in response.
"Go ahead, if you like. I don't mind."
At this the two made their way to the little pretzel stand. Prussia bought himself a normal one with salt, with a side of cheddar cheese for dipping. The two sat at a table, and Prussia began eating his pretzel, breaking off little bits and dipping them in cheese before eating them. Canada just sat and watched, suddenly feeling hungry. The pretzel looked absolutely delicious, and the smell coming from it was heavenly. Prussia noticed him watching.
"You want some?" he said offering him a piece.
"s-sure," said Canada, taking the bit. Prussia then held out the little bowl of cheese. Canada got some and ate his little piece of pretzel, smiling slightly.
"Thanks," he said.
"No problem," started Prussia. Then added, "If you want, I can get you one of your own."
"No thanks, I'm fine," Said Canada a bit too quickly. Prussia raised an eyebrow.
"You don't mind?" Canada asked shyly. Prussia handed him a bit of money.
"Get what you want," he said, and Canada thanked him. He then got up to get a pretzel of his own, smiling to himself slightly. Maybe making friends wasn't so hard after all. Maybe he should shop at the mall more often!
