"Big Brother! I picked some flowers from the field!" Lichtenstein said cheerfully, coming into the house with the said bouquet. Switzerland looked down from where he stood on a stool, hanging a painting that he had recently acquired from the Italy brother's (as penance for trespassing previously).
"Really? There is a vase in the cupboard under the sink." He called back down.
"Thank you brother!" She said happily, going into the kitchen. Fetching the vase, she filled it carefully with water, and then placed the flowers into the glass. Picking it up, she carried it over to the kitchen table and placed it in the center. "Do you need any help?" She asked, looking up to the Swiss.
"No- I am just… about… finished." He said with finality. Climbing down to the floor, he hopped off of the step ladder with a little thump. "How was your day?"
"Good! I was able to clear up that whole issue about taxes and then I went to the fields. Uhmm… I saw Latvia today too… Other than that… nothing really happened." She said with a smile. Switzerland nodded. "How about you?"
"Ah, not much. The Italy brothers gave us this painting for free… and it's actually quite nice." He said, looking up at it. "I spoke with a few of the others, we have a meeting coming up in a week, so clear the schedule I guess. It's in Germany… And England will be visiting this weekend." He added as an afterthought. "I have to go pick up the dry-cleaning this evening after dinner as well."
"I could do that. You need your rest for the ball that your boss is throwing tomorrow." Lichtenstein said with a smile. "My dress is in there too, so I can do it."
"Are you sure? It'll be dark by then-"
"Brother, I can handle it." The younger nation said with a chuckle.
