"Let's go Alfred..." Lovina blushes as he takes her hand. She starts to walk with him, until he stops. "Hey...we have to go back..." she frowns at him. She looks at him, and he smiles. "It's just a bunch of steroided guys hitting a ball with a stick, nothing to get excited over." She sighs at how everything seems to impress Alfred now.
"But Lovina~" he pouts. "It looks so fun~ I wanna try it like those guys...please?" he gives her his best pout.
"You don't know how to play..." she sighs.
"But I watched" he pouts more. "And I could do it~ Please~?"
"Fine...but just this once, got it?" She lets out a small chigi when he hugs her. "But don't be disappointed if you're not good at it..." She walks over to the batting cages and gets him the helmet and bat. "I put the coin in there, and you wait for that machine to pitch to you, ok?" He nods before going into one of the batting cages. "Ok...now" she puts the coin into the machine, expecting to see him miss a lot.
A few minutes later a small crowd forms near the batting cage as one by one Alfred manages to hit the baseball with what seems to be little effort. When his turn is up, he gives Lovina the puppy dog look, so that she lets him go again. Each swing is accurate, but above all else it has a powerful force behind it. When he's done, someone approaches him about joining a local team, something that Lovina says they will have to talk about later.
"That was so fun~" Alfred laughs as he sets the bat and helmet into the rack. "Thanks so much Lovina~" he smiles more.
"Just how the hell could you do that?" Lovina was still in shock, her light amber eyes widened in shock. Just the other day he was her fluffy cat who would laze about and cuddle her. Now he was this strong man who would still be affectionate to her. How did this happen now? She had never expected him to be this strong, but then again she never expected him to turn human. She was about to say more when her cellphone rings.
"Ciao..." she sighs.
"Lovina?" Irina asks with a small worried tone. "I-I...I wanted to ask...is Americat human too?"
"Too? what do you mean?" Lovina bites at her lip as she looks over at Alfred who is sitting on a bench.
"Just...Canacat...I-I mean...Matvey...he's human now too." Lovina could hear the blush in Irina's voice. "I-I...I woke up and this young man was in my bed. H-he claimed to be Canacat, and then sistra came in and nearly killed him, because he was naked." she sighs.
"We'll be right over..." Lovina sighs and hangs up. "Come on Alfred..."
Many hours earlier Irina awakes to see a figure next to her. With a small whimper, she sits up and looks closer. It was a male with soft curly blonde hair like Francis.
'oh god...please don't be him' she turns him over and lets out a sigh of relief. This male didn't have the stubble on his chin. In fact, his face had that baby soft look to it. She touches his face, causing him to open his light violet eyes.
"I-Irina?" he seems to whisper as he looks up at the Ukrainian woman. "D-did the wish come t-true?" he nervously moves his arms. "It...it worked..."
"W-who are you? What are you doing in my room?" Irina moves back scared. "S-sistra" she tears up getting scared.
"N-non...I-I'm canacat..." he leans forward with a worried look. All he wanted was for her to be happy, and the angel made him human so that he could do that. She warned him of how it might not work out, but for the first time in Canacat's life he wanted to take that risk, that is because he knew that it would make her happy. "I-I...I made a wish last night, and an angel made me human...I-I promise I wouldn't lie to you Irina"
She looks at him, and something in his gentle violet eyes makes her feel at ease. Her brain tells her not to, but her heart wanted to believe this kind man was the cat that would be there to comfort her.
"I...I believe you..." she starts to tear up and cry what would be tears of joy. "You...you did this for me?...but why Canacat?...I didn't hate the companionship you gave me as a cat.
Canacat starts to blush. "I-I was worried that being a cat wasn't good enough...d-do you not like me as a human?"
"N-no...it...it's not that...it's just sistra..."
"You called, da?" The room become more cold as Anya walked in, carrying her shovel over her shoulder. She looks at Canacat and before he can react she lunges forward, whiting him in the chest with the shovel. "What did you do to my sistra?" she hisses out.
"A-anya...no..." Irina grabs Anya's hand, stopping her. "T-that's Canacat...h-he wished to be human like us...p-please stop hurting him" she starts to sob.
Anya puts her shovel to the side, and looks down at the former cat with a cold stare.
"That's weird bro~" Alfred laughs as he looks over at Canacat, or rather Matthew. "I wished to be human too...hmm..." he pauses to think. "Do you think the others wished the same thing?" He smiles wondering what Arthur, Nikita, Elizakitty and Germouser would look like as humans. "But anyway...bro why did you make your last name different than mine?"
Matthew sighs. "I didn't know you were human too...and Irina suggested the name" he blushes while looking over at her. Irina smiles before quickly looking away in a shy embarrassed way. "B-but...I...I'm glad you are...just don't be as annoying" He sighs remembering how Alfred would run around, jump on furniture and do other weird things while he was a cat.
"But Mattie~" He pouts. "I'm really good at baseball~!"
Matthew sighs at his brother realizing that cat or human, he would always be the same.
After helping Matthew settle in, Lovina goes to the kitchen and starts to work on dinner. She knew Felicia was going to cry when she found out Canacat wasn't a cat anymore, and was going to live with Anya and Irina. She then mentally curses herself when she realizes that with Germouser with Felicia she was alone with Alfred.
"Lovina~" A pair of arms wrap around her waist, and she feels warm breath on her neck. She pauses in stirring the homemade sauce she was making to try to squirm out of his embrace. "Can I help~? Please?"
"No...just go to the living room or something." She can feel herself blush, but he only cuddles into her more. "G-get off..." She tries to ignore him, and continues to stir. "A-alfred...can you let go?" She moves the pan to a different side of the stove and covers it. Now all that was left were the noodles which were ready to be drained.
"Just let me help? I'm bored~" He whines more.
"F-fine...as long as it shuts you up..." she sighs. She goes over to the pot with the pasta in it and tries to lift it, but was far too heavy for her. She was about to let out a small string of curses, when she feels the pot lift up. Looking down she sees Alfred's hands on top of her own, something that left her at a loss for words. He mimics her steps to the sink, and helps her drain the pasta into the strainer. "G-grazie?" She starts to feel this weird feeling as his hands remain on her own. It was like how she felt around Antonio, before he broke her heart, except...better. Without thinking, she shifts her hands, entwining her fingers within his own, and leans back into him. The last few days had been the most miserable, but for once she was finally starting to feel secure. She looks up at him with a softened expression, and before she knew it, she felt something warm on her forehead.
"W-what the hell Alfred..." she moves away blushing. "D-did you just lick my forehead?" She was turning a million shades of red as she nearly yelled at him.
"But Lovina...that's how we show affection?" He blinks confused. As a kitten and then as an older cat, he would show his affection by purring, cuddling, and sometimes licking. He couldn't purr like a cat anymore, but he could still cuddle.
"That was ok when you were a cat, but even then is was weird..." she lightly frowns thinking of how it felt like a warm damp piece of sandpaper was being put up against her. "Just...that's not how people do that...or at least normal people do."
"Then how...wait...is it like how you and that guy would press your mouths against each other?" he innocently asks, causing Lovina to facepalm.
"Yes...that's called a kiss...but only boyfriend and girlfriend..." she sighs, remembering that Alfred wouldn't understand it with those terms. "...or rather...mates would do that, understood?" Alfred nods. "G-good..." she lets out a small sigh. "Now...we don't ever speak of this again, got it? If you tell anyone..." she trails off in a small rage. "Now I'm going to teach you how to eat with a fork and spoon." She sets up plates for both of them.
Alfred sits down and tries to get used to sitting like a person instead of a cat, but it all feels weird to him still. His human body wasn't exactly the most comfortable. He picks up a fork and stares at it, before getting an idea. It looks like the item Lovina used to brush his fur when he was a kitten, so maybe it was to brush his human hair? He tries to move the fork closer to his head, but Lovina stops him, and shows him the proper way to use it. She lifts up the fork until it's at his mouth.
"Now open..." she tells him, and then puts the food in his mouth. "Like this ok?...but you have to throughly chew your food until it's soft..." She watches him start to eat correcting him here and there, but eventually he gets it, even if he ate a little messily. She eats her own food, enjoying the subtle tastes that she loved with making all natural pasta.
Lovina was what many would call proud of her heritage. She was born and raised in the southern half of Italy, and growing up, she lived in the typical house with her grandfather and little sister. Her family was close to Antonio's to the point where a few summers she would be sent over to Spain to help with the tomatoes, which was where she got her love for them. She grew to love the taste of the natural fruit, and became disgusted with people who messed with it by adding preservatives to "make it last longer". She always thought it ruined the natural tastes, which is why she spent a little extra buying all of the fresh ingredients daily.
With a soft smile, she looks over at Alfred who is smiling at her. "You liked it?" she secretly hopes that he did.
"Are you kidding me? That was the best~" He smiles at her.
A.N. Omg he finally gets a better taste in food?
ok so CanadaXUkraine if going to happen sooner then AmericaXFem!Romano...
