I… I'm speechless. I'm just so happy people enjoy this (even if it's only a little) I'm starting school again, so less days off and whatnot, but I'll do as much of this as possible in my free time. Also, I'd really like to know who you guys want England to end up with in the future, because I love them all so much I can't decide ;3; and I'm just really unprepared for making an ending. I have to think ahead!

Really, Arthur's leg hurt more than ever, but he wouldn't let that get between school and potential friends. He'd convinced Alvise to let him go, but getting there was a different matter. He ended up leaving early and limping most of the way. I say most because Lovino and Feliciano found him taking a short rest on the side of the path. When they found out about his leg, they decided to help him. Actually it was more Feliciano who decided to help, Lovino just walked with them and ended up taking over when Feliciano got too tired.

"So, it seems like you and your cousin are not the only new kids in town" said Lovino

"Is that so? I wouldn't think a place as isolated as this would get many new people too often" replied Arthur

"It usually doesn't. This place was basically deserted before the war; the orphanage was just nonno's house back then too. He started to take in children with no family only after me and Feli's parents died. I guess he wanted to 'give them a loving home' or some shit like that" said Lovino

"Is that really what happened? I don't remember a whole lot from before Ludwig came to stay" said Feliciano

"You don't remember anything ever." Deadpanned Lovino

"Ve~ that's not true!"

"What did we eat for breakfast this morning?"

"Umm… pasta?" at this Lovino facepalmed

"No, dumbass"

Arthur just stopped listening to the two Italians bicker and started thinking about this and that

'Hmm… I'd quite fancy a cup of tea. I haven't had one in a rather long time…' soon, he started to think about friends, how he'd made so many in just a few days. He quite liked it out here. There were hardly any annoyingly loud people. It was so… peaceful.

"…ey, hey Arthur. We're here. WAKE THE FUCK UP, WE'RE NEARLY AT SCHOOL" at this Arthur snapped out of his day dreams. One thing caught his eye in the muddy field next to the school, one mop of bright red hair. Seconds later, the boy who owned said hair looked up at Arthur, grinned with mischievous glint in his green eyes and started to run at a startling speed towards Arthur. The Italians had somehow yet to notice the tall boy quickly approaching until it was too late and Arthur had been snatched from the Italians and pulled into a bone crushing hug.

"Hey Artie! How're ya doin'?" said the boy with bright red hair and an extremely strong Scottish accent.

"F-fine Allistor. Please put me down" gasped out Arthur

"Oh. Yeah" said Allistor putting Arthur down "Sorry Artie"

"You could've settled for a postcard, you know. I was planning on sending one" Said Arthur after regaining his balance and stumbling a little. Before the conversation could advance any further, Feliciano tugged on Arthur's coat and said "If we don't go now we'll be late~"

"Oh, okay." Arthur started limping toward Lovino

"Did ya hurt yourself?" Inquired Allistor

"Yeah" said Arthur

Allistor crouched on the grass in front of Arthur "Hop on" he said

"What?" Arthur was slightly confused. The Allistor he knew would have kicked his bruise and run off laughing like a maniac, okay, that was a bit of an exaggeration but you get the point

"Piggyback" Allistor then mumbled something. Arthur could only pick out the word 'favour'.

"Okay…?" said Arthur, warily getting on. Allistor got up and started following the Italians (one of whom was death staring him, but only a little).

Having wrapped his arms around Allistor's shoulders so he wouldn't fall off, Arthur started to ask questions.

"Why are you here?" Arthur asked

"Because I have to go to school too…?"

"Answer the question properly"

"No, that's really the reason, or at least part of it. My house and school were obliterated. When I heard ye'd moved out here I suggested we do the same to the family and they thought it was a great idea. So here I am."

"Fantastic. Why are you being so nice?"

"Because after this piggyback ride, ye owe me a favour"

"When did I ever agree to owe you a favour?"

"When ye got on my back" so that's what he'd been mumbling about. Fuck.

Arthur just sighed. He really should've seen this coming. If he didn't agree to it, he was pretty sure the Scottish boy would make his life and undamaged limbs painful "…Fine"

"Good, Good" said Allistor as he placed Arthur down before walking through the double doors of the school. Classes were about to start.

The day was fairly normal, the work was easy (for Arthur) and he met a few new people, A Swiss boy named Vash and his adopted younger sister Lili, a sleepy greek boy called Hercules who seemed to sleep enough for him to be diagnosed with narcolepsy and a Hungarian girl named Elizabeta who smiled creepily every time Arthur chatted with Allistor, Francis, Gilbert, Lovino or Antonio.

All in all Arthur had a pretty fun day (save for witnessing Elizabeta's creepy, creepy smile).

I need reveiws to live in happy.
