Cursed - Prologue

"Arthur, are you sure you can't break ze spell?" The white haired young woman asked. "I can't stay like zis!"

"I don't see what's so wrong, Gilly." The girl's best friend Antonio smiled, wrapping his arms around her waist. "You look so adorable as a girl."

Gilbert couldn't help blushing at the compliment. "T-Toni! St-Stop zat!" She yelled at the Spaniard, trying to keep the others from noticing the redness of her face.

"Well... Sorry, Gilbert." Arthur answered the question Gilbert had asked him. "The best I can do is make it to where you'll be able to return to your male self. If anyone tries to take the locket off, they could risk killing you. I-I'm sorry, but you might still turn into a girl at random times. I just don't know when."

"As long as I'm not permanently a girl, I'll live vith it."

"Alright. But remember, you asked for me to do this." Arthur told her as he waved his wand in front of the German girl.

In a flash of light, the former nation was a man once again. Only the gold and red locket around Gilbert's neck reminded everyone of the curse Gilbert was still under, even if he looked to be cured of it.

"Awww!" Antonio frowned, stepping away from Gilbert. "I-I guess I'll just go check on Romano then." He lowered his head as he walked out the door of the room.

"Toni!" Gilbert called out as he ran after him. "Hey, Antonio, wait up!"

Gilbert raced outside to see Antonio sitting on a nearby bench, his head buried in his hands. Gilbert let a small smile slip onto his face as he walked over and wrapped his arms around Antonio's neck from behind.

"Hey."

"Hey." Antonio sighed, pulling his face out of his hands to look at Gilbert. His face wasn't tear-stained, but he appeared depressed and like he'd been on the verge of crying.

"You okay?"

"I guess. I'm just a little down."

"Vhy is zat?"

"Well, have you ever liked someone, but you were too afraid to tell them? Then something happens and you can't help showing your love for them? But then everything goes back to normal, so you start to feel guilty for how you acted?"

"Yeah, actually." Gilbert let go of Antonio and walked around to sit next to him on the bench. "I've had feelings for one of my closest friends for avhile." Gilbert smiled and laid his head on Antonio's shoulder. "I guess it just took a curse for me to realise it."

"Really?" Antonio looked surprised at Gilbert. "Who?"

"Vell..." Gilbert lifted his head and looked into Antonio's green eyes, his red ones shinning with a strange emotion Antonio had never seen Gilbert have before. "You." Gilbert planted a quick kiss on Antonio's cheek.

"G-Gilbert..." Antonio began, seeming at a loss for words.
"Zis curse can be a good zing too, Toni." With that, Gilbert leaned in and kissed Antonio, this time on the lips.
