Never Forgotten

Chapter Twenty Four

You weren't going to get a chapter today because I've got major cramps and had a bunch of drawings to do but I couldn't get into my novel work so here I am with a shortie!

Prussia's POV:

Shortly after Canada left to help Romano Kumajirou hopped up on my lap.
"Take me for a walk snowball!" He ordered.
"Vhat did jou call me?"
"I called you snowball, fuckboy." Kuma growled.
"Scheiße. Do jou kiss jour mutti vith zhat mouzh?"
"My mother was killed by hunters. Would you kiss a corpse?"
"Uhhhhh. I guess not." I patted his head carefully.
"Now take me for a walk whoever you are. I want to smell stuff."
"Fine. It's late, but I'll bring a flashlight." I got up from the couch, setting the bear on the floor and leading him toward the door. I'd seen Mattie take him out a few times without a leash. He was obedient enough to stay close to his owner and hopefully he would be the same with me.
As we stepped out onto the driveway, I saw a car pull in.
Who the hell visits Mattie? Especially this late. Maybe it was Spain back to reclaim Romano. I sort of hoped so.
"Bruder?!" I exclaimed when the window rolled down and I saw who was inside.
"Ja. I needed to ask jou somezing."
"Sure. Ask avay." I leaned on the car window, earning a disapproving look from my little brother.
"Jou told me zhat vhen jou took me in I vas all beaten und injured und zhat I couldn't remember anyzhing..." He started. "Vhat vas I vearing zhat day?"
"Jou came all zhis vay to ask about fashion?" I lifted a silver eyebrow.
Luddy nodded.
"I dunno. Something black und jou had zhis little hat zhing. Austria asked for zhe clozhing later so I just gave it to him."
"Und jou didn't zhink to ask him vhy?"
"Nein. He probably vanted to make a shit ton of bow ties for his orchestra or somezhing..."
"Bruder..."
"Ja?"
"Zhe clothing...did it look like zhis?" He held out a little outfit in a box. I took it through the car window and inspected it.
"Ja. Zhis vas exactly vhat jou had on."
"Okay. Zhat's all I needed to know."
"Can we go now, Snowball?!" Kumajirou squeaked.
"Fine. Ja. Bye bruder. See jou at zhe next meeting." I handed the clothing back to my younger sibling and walked into the woods.
After a half hour of pointless wandering and watching the beast sniff pretty much everything that had ever existed in this area we made it back home.
Kuma waddled upstairs to sleep with his owner like he usually did.
I followed, noticing the master bedroom door was open and the light was on. I poked my head in and choked at the sight.
Mattie. My Mattie was in bed with Romano. They were sleeping, but they were both unclothed and I could see a bite mark on Canada's shoulder.
Oh how I wished that bite mark was mine.
But the fact that they had made the beast with two backs wasn't what set a stone in my stomach. It was the whole "sleeping in each other's arms" thing that they were doing. They had so much in common...being the lesser appreciated of two brothers, the curls...the secret love for cheesy romance movies.
And Matthew had the kind of personality that was mellow enough for Romano to tolerate.
Gött. What if they actually started dating. What if Mattie kicked me out onto the street. I'd have to live with Austria. And he's a real douche.
And if I lost Mattie himself...
I didn't think I could handle that.
I turned off the light and closed the door before heading back to my own room where I curled up in a ball in the middle of my bed...
...
...
...and cried.

I have to warn you now. This story is gonna start to get weird. I originally intended it to be witty and then sad with a cute ending but now we sharr see.
