Heyyyy everyone! On thursday, after four months of working on Dublin By Lamplight, my class and I performed it and it was amazing! Now all I have to do is assessments and that is my HND finished forever and I'll be going Brighton in September to do my last year in uni! So anyway that's why updates have been major slow.

Thank you for all your support!

Forty-Two: Pride.

Green eyes locked on blue, both trying to stare each other out. After a few seconds, England tore his gaze away, only to look back at the smug look on America's face. The rest of the Allies looked on, entranced.

"Say it."

England glared.

"Like hell."

America raised his eyebrows.

"Say it."

England shifted his weight from one foot to the other, clearly uncomfortable.

"I-I can't."

America frowned.

"Oh, I see. You can say it me when we're alone together, but I ask you to say it in front of people and your pride is getting in the way? You're too proud to admit it? That you finally-"

"Nughh! Please don't!" England begged, flapping his arms at America. The American ran a hand through his hair impatiently.

"Un-fucking-believable." He muttered, turning away from England and sat down again at the table.

France looked expectantly at England.

"Well done Angleterre. You've pissed him off now. Why can't you just say it? We all know what is now." And then began ranting at him in French, "Mon Dieu, dans mon pays, nous portons des vêtements de chaque autres tout le temps! Alors vous porter une veste de l'Amérique; et alors? Je pense qu'il est mignon!"

"Keep out of this frog! I don't need you babbling in that crappy language of yours. I don't understand it and even the sound of it offends me." England snapped at the Frenchman. He was nervous enough as it was; he didn't need that cheese-eating bastard making things worse.

"Can we please get on with the meeting?" China asked rubbing his temples slowing. Meetings with the Allies were sometimes so tedious…

Grumbling they complied with America still ignoring England.

"Okay, so what I think we should do concerning the-"

England mumbled out something extremely quickly but America caught the words. Being the only other nation who spoke English as their first language however, he was the only one who actually understood it.

America rolled his eyes at the Briton.

"Nuh uh. Say it properly. So that everyone can hear."

England drew a deep breath and said,

"Fine."

France, Russia and China all waited with baited breath.

"I like to wear America's bomber jacket on the weekends when we go on dates."

Sorry if my French is a bit rusty; I'm used to be quite fluent but sometimes I get things wrong. France basically said that in his country they wear each other's clothes all the time and he thinks it's cute that England wears America's jacket. Review if you want. Cheers, LucyMoon1992 x
