AN: Here's the new chapter! I looked around for Ukraine's human name and I'm using the most common: Yekaterina. If I use it again, which I'm pretty sure I will, I'll probably have Ivan and Natalya use a nickname.

The song is Hey Brother by Avicii. It's done by a Swedish remixer (Avicii) and sung by Dan Tyminski.

Disclaimer: Hetalia belongs to Hidekaz Himaruya. The song belongs to Avicii.

Noise bustled through the meeting. The nations were talking amongst themselves, some about songs and others just about things in general.

Natalya sat next to Yekaterina, looking down at her phone. She didn't have any particular expression on her face. It was the usual nearly blank look.

"Sister, is everything alright?"

The platinum blonde looked up to see Yekaterina looking at her kindly, a worried light in her eyes. Natalya nodded and smiled slightly. "Da, I'm fine. Just thinking."

"About what?"

The Belarusian moved her phone under the table so her sister could see the screen. On it was a song familiar to the both of them, along with many of the other countries present.

"Do you want to sing it?" She asked, her voice now in a quiet whisper. It was hard to hear over everyone.

Natalya shrugged. "Maybe."

Yekaterina smiled. "Would you like me to sing with you?" After a moment the Ukrainian received a slow nod in return. "Do we need ear buds?"

Natalya shook her head and pulled the said item from the pocket in her dress. "I borrowed some during the break."

The other looked at her curiously. "From who?"

"Toris."

Yekaterina smiled at the mention of the country. "Ah, how is he doing? I haven't talked to him lately."

Natalya shrugged again. "He's doing fine."

There was a shout in the room. Everyone turned to see the usual culprit: Ludwig. The German looked tired. He looked at them, his eyes narrowed. When he saw that he had their attention he asked, "Can we please get down to business?"

Everyone quieted down and Natalya put the ear buds in her phone. She put one in her ear and waited. Five, four, three, two…

It didn't come. Her eyebrows furrowed, perplexed. She looked up and saw that the German nation was looking at her with an almost… frightened expression? After a moment of her eyes bearing into his he stopped.

"Natalya, later." She nodded, thinking that this was the calmest he had been about the situation.

In the last ten minutes of the meeting everyone was quiet. They didn't seem sure what to think.

The German looked at Natalya as the signal to go ahead and she pulled out her phone once more, taking the ear buds out. She looked towards Toris in thanks but when she met his eyes he looked away. Hmm…

After a moment of slight hesitation she pressed play. The sound of a guitar filled the room and many nations looked up immediately. Many of the European countries knew this song, though Berwald and Alfred looked the most confused… or maybe they were just surprised. Ivan looked completely puzzled.

After a few seconds, Natalya started singing. Her voice was soft, but at the same time loud enough to have everyone's attention. "Hey brother, there's an endless road to re-discover."

Yekaterina joined for a moment. "Hey-"

Natalya dropped out. The two knew which parts were fitting for the other to sing. Her sister continued, looking at her with a smile.

"-sister, know the water's sweet but blood is thicker."

The Belarusian had to fight the urge to smile when they joined, their voices contrasting beautifully with the deep one on the recording. "Oh, if the sky comes falling down for you, There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do."

There was a pause and Natalya began, glancing at Ivan. It wasn't in a creepy way, but almost curious. "Hey brother, do you still believe in one another?"

Yekaterina continued, nudging her sister playfully, her smile widening. "Hey sister, do you still believe in love, I wonder?"

They joined again and this time Natalya couldn't hide her smile. "Oh, if the sky comes falling down-"

"-For you-" The Ukrainian sang briefly and they came back without a pause. The song reminded them of when they were little, when they were closer.

"There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do."

The music became stronger. Natalya sang, though she looked slightly out of place with the line, like it wasn't hers to sing. "What if I'm far from home?"

They sang together, "Oh, brother I will hear you call."

Yekaterina's face fell slightly and she looked away at the next part. She looked almost embarrassed. "What if I lose it all?"

Natalya's expression softened in a way that many nations had never seen, singing almost reassuringly, "Oh, sister I will help you out."

They sang together, thinking back to when they were little, "Oh, if the sky comes falling down for you,
There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do."

The music entered an instrumental, becoming more and more upbeat throughout. It almost sounded like clapping.

Many nations were tapping their feet, others bobbing their heads. Berwald looked oddly pleased and several were smiling.

After about fifteen seconds the music shifted and in the recording there really was clapping. After one or two missed, Feliciano and Alfred started clapping with it. Eliza, Antonio, Tino, and Mathias followed, much to Ludwig's annoyance.

The German looked at them, frustration clearly showing on his face. "What-"

Antonio shrugged, smiling. "You told us to do what the recording does, amigo."

After another half a minute of this, it stopped and they knew the song well enough to stop with it. The music became slower again, the guitar returning.

Natalya began again with the same lines. "Hey brother, there's an endless road to re-discover."

Yekaterina continued, settling for just smiling at the Belarusian this time around. "Hey sister, do you still believe in love, I wonder?"

When the chorus came they looked towards Ivan, their expressions asking if he would like to sing. The Russian shrugged while they sang, "Oh, if the sky comes falling down for you, There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do."

There was a pause and Ivan made up his mind. "What if I'm far from home?"

The sisters nearly grinned, pleasantly surprised. They sang together, meaning the words, "Oh, brother I will hear you call."

Yekaterina looked between her siblings, "What if I lose it all?"

Natalya and Ivan sang together this time, both genuinely happy for the first time in… well, a long time. "Oh, sister I will help you out!"

Now, all three of them sang together, their voices harmonizing. "Oh, if the sky comes falling down for you, There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do."

The instrumental returned with full force, though it seemed even more upbeat this time. When it came time to clap more nations joined, nearly all in sync.

Ludwig just sat there, staring at them. He looked like he had a headache again. The music went on longer than it had previously.

Eventually it hit its last beat and the song slowly died away. Natalya pressed pause on her phone and looked towards Ludwig.

The German looked up and sighed tiredly. "Dismissed."

Natalya raised her hand and tapped the shoulder of the nation she had been looking for.

The brunet jumped and turned around. When he saw it was her she wasn't sure if the Baltic country looked more or less nervous than before. "Oh, h-hello Ms. Natalya."

She held out her hand. In her fingers were the earplugs. "Thank you."

Toris's eyes widened slightly in surprise, as if he hadn't expected to get them back. "Oh." He took them back and smiled softly at her. "You're welcome. Thank you for returning them." He paused for a moment. "I liked your singing." He saw Yekaterina behind her and smiled at her as well. "Both of yours."

Her sister smiled, always the better one with conversations. "Thank you so much."

For a moment she saw Toris pause, looking at someone behind the both of them. When Natalya turned she saw her brother and smiled at him.

He nodded towards her, smiling slightly. Then he turned towards Toris. "What about me?" He asked, voice as childish as ever.

Toris looked nervous again, but it was a different kind. He smiled at Ivan, though it looked almost strained. "I liked yours too."

Ivan chuckled softly. It wasn't in a threatening way, though she couldn't quite pick out what the feeling behind it was. "Spasibo."

Just like that, they started to leave. Yekaterina turned, "We will see you at the next meeting. Bye Toris."

The Baltic nation nodded and gave them a small wave.

AN: Thanks for reading! Tell me what you thought.
