I walk to Belgium's house. Let's see if he has anymore of those disgusting books filled with propaganda. How dare he oppose me?! I am the best country on earth, he is lucky he is a part of me.
After a few seconds I arrive at his house. This will be a fun suprise for him, I bet. I open the door. Belgium jumps up.
"Where are the books, farmerboy?"
"W-what books?"
I grab him by his collar.
"Show me where they are NOW!"
---
"At himself?"
Lux nods. But why would he be shouting at himself? He wasn't saying anything. That doesn't make any sense, does it? Well it is the only other option, right?
"Maybe Lux, maybe. It is weird though."
She nods.
"Now drive, Neth. We've been sitting in this car for way to long!"
I nod and start the car. During the ride to her house we discuss more about what Belgium could've meant.
--Belgium's POV--
I am sitting alone on my couch in the living room. The voices were loud today. Louder than before. I couldn't hold back anymore. Netherlands must think I am a freak. I am not a freak, I hope. I am not sure anymore.
Maybe beer will help. I stand up to walk to the kitchen. Damn, I am dizzy. Suddenly my right arm moves up. It moves left and right. What is happening?! It moves up. I grab my arm.
"You can't keep us under control forever."
What was that?! What just happened?! I haven't been scared like this in forever. The voices are getting stronger
--
-Luxembourg's POV-
I open my eyes. Damn, I must've woken up before my alarm. My bed feels nice. I check my phone. "WHAT?!" I scream. "IT IS ALREADY 10 AM!" WHY DIDN'T MY ALARM WAKE ME UP?! I jump up and look for my alarm. It is in pieces. Oh right, I smashed it. What do I do? I don't have time for anything. I am just gonna race to the office.
--
I run into the office. Germany is standing in the hall. He looks at me. He comes to me.
"Why are you late?"
"I accidentally smashed my alarm, so it didn't wake me up."
"Well, you have to quickly go to Niederlande's office to sign the contract renewals of the Benelux."
I nod. We both walk away. Neth's office isn't far. I open the door and walk in. Belgium is sitting there. He looks up. And covers his mouth with his hand. He looks like he is holding back laughter. I look at Neth, same for him. What are they doing? Neth bursts out laughing. Not even before I can react, 2 seconds later, Belgium bursts ut laughing too.
"Nice hair, Lux!"
Stupid Neth with his stupid jokes.
"Shut up."
"You look funny, Lux."
"No! I look stunning as always!"
I haven't even seen my hair. Maybe it is really bad. I open camera on my phone. Holy shit. I have the messiest hair ever. It is everwhere, except where it should be.
"Belsch, you like my hair, right?"
He puts his hands up.
"I am staying out of this."
"BELSCH!"
"Just being honest, Luxemburg."
