That's The World?!『A Hetalia FanFic』

Chapter 58~ Extended Summer

*Cody's POV*

After our showers, I went downstairs to escort Olivine back to her other home. Daylight was already peering through the windows and I wouldn't want someone to realize that she was missing. But when I was about to call her name, I saw her fast asleep on the couch.

"I guess we did stay up all night..." I leaned over the couch and whispered aloud.

She was curled up in a ball and had her hand over her mouth. She slept the way she did when she was little. With quiet feet, I walked over and slowly cuddled with her on the couch. As if on cue, her body held onto mine to snuggle in a warm hold. A tiny grin flickered upon her face.

I massaged her head and kissed it softly, taking in her floral scent. The tiny breaths she makes while snoozing is more than adorable.

I just want to keep her here with me, where she's safe. But she's grown now, she has to learn how to protect herself. She has so much power inside of her, I don't want her to become overwhelmed. I just want what's best for her... all because I love her too much. Heh heh.

"You're so warm... for being made of water..." she cooed with tired eyes.

"It's because I'm here with you," I remarked.

"Smooth, Pedo, smooth," she teased. "Hey, can I... as you something?"

"Yeah, what is it?"

She was hesitant to ask as she became more awake, "What am I? I mean... sexual wise. I'm not sure what the terms are...."

"You're either bisexual or pansexual. Since Xero's a robot, I'm not sure if that puts you into the pansexual category," I explained.

"What do those terms mean?"

"Bisexual means you're attracted to both males and females, pansexual means you love anyone because of what's on the inside. No matter if they're transgender, gay, lesbian, or bi."

"Oh... Cody, what are you?" She looked to me with pleading eyes.

"Me? I'm as straight as an arrow."

"So you prefer females?"

"Only one. What can I say, I find you attractive," I nuzzled her face.

"How would I be considered attractive? I'm flat..."

"I'm more of a thigh guy, for various reasons."

"Don't touch me there! I don't want to re-create what happened earlier..."

I laughed, "Alright, alright, I won't. But I better get you home, everyone will be waking up soon."

"No~" she whined, "I wanna sleep with you longer. I miss your warmth..."

She snuggled in once again to doze off to sleep. I couldn't protest, her charm turned me to stone. I'll just carry her home in a little while. She deserves a little rest, she's been through a lot. I'm surprised that she's taking her flashbacks so well in her smaller form. Her mind should be broken and unable to function, but she's still living and breathing perfectly fine.
