Do You Remember? Germany x Italy

35. And you will just let 'em go?

(Spain and Frances P.O.V.)
We waited behind a bush by the bar the two Germans went to, Romano and Japan gave us the go ahead to follow Germany after he left Prussia. We snuck around, following him to a barber, a perfume shop, and finally a shop to get a custom made suit.
"Suspicious eh amigo? It looks like he is taking this seriously." He could hear Romano slap the table on the other side of the headset, and Japan trying to calm him down. "Well mon ami, he still is a country. He has to take this seriously." France stared at the German currently getting sized for a suit. Spain and France suddenly snapped their fingers in sync and looked at each other. "Que?" Spain asked first, curious if what his friend had to say. "Germany. He doesn't hate Italy!" France exclaimed, "He has to go through zhis because he is a country. I bet his boss doesn't know he loves Italy. Or Italy's actual boss for the matter. Zhis may explain why he is so stressed and accidentally hit Italy. Maybe he feels as though if he didn't have Italy around his job may be easier when in fact it makes it harder because Italy is the only one besides Prussia to make him loosen up. Non?" "I was just going to say a churro sounds good but that works too!" "TOMATO BASTARD!" Romano shouted over the headset. "EVEN THE BEARDED ROSE BASTARD IS THINKING-A BETTER THAN YOU." "France-San, that is a very good point. We should keep that in mind." Germany was walking out of the shop, Italy was coming around the corner. They couldn't blow their cover so they had to let fate take it's course, no matter how bad it could be. Italy made it around the corner seeming slightly depressed, Germany un-noticingly  turned to face the smaller italian as he was in his line of passing. "Roma..." Spain muttered, "Spit it out tomato bastard!!!" "We may have what you could call, a situation..." (Can anybody guess which Hetalia character actually said this? XD)"Prease exprain [explain]." Japan asked. "Italy and Germany are about to-" he stopped out of the climax of the moment to inspect what would happen between the two. They watched as Germany and Italy bump into each other. "Germany and Italy bumped into each ozher [other]." France finished. "Zhey are talking.. Italy looks hurt... Germany is looking away..." France gave a long pause. "Italy shoved something at Germany, and ran away crying. Don't worry though Prussia is still here and is following him. Germany is inspecting the item... He put it in his pocket and is walking away. Do we follow?" Spain asked. "No." Romano scowled, "Mi fratello is our main concern now. Catch up with-a Prussia." Romano said a little more calmly. We followed orders as Prussia puffed out where his location was and where he is going. We were surprised Prussia kept up with him, Italy is surprisingly fast when he wants to be. When we caught up, we quietly stood beside Prussia, keeping our distance from Italy so he wouldn't notice. He sat on a bench and watched him blankly "stare" at his hand with closed eyes. Prussia couldn't take it, he started walking towards our italian friend and we followed.

(Italy's P.O.V)
As I was deep in thought walking around the market, I took a turn and accidentally hit someone. "Oh! I'm-a sorr-" I looked up before I finished and saw Ludwig. We stared at each other for a moment. "Fel- I mean Italia." My heart melted, it burned. More like scorched. Not a happy melting feeling, but one that made my knees feel weak. "He won't-a use my real name.." I looked at the suit and my heart sunk further. I returned my "gaze" back to him and smiled. I didn't hold my eyes open anymore, the world looked too cruel at the moment. "Italia I have something to say." Each time I heard "Italia" my heart would ache. Never had I hated my own name like this before. But a small part of me was hoping he would say sorry and we would return to normal. He turned his head to the side, "I'm sorry..." He said. My eyes slowly opened at his words, feeling more hope rise in my chest.

"Ve are through."

I looked at him in disbelief for a moment. My eyes burned and I quickly shut them tight again. I would never open them again. I ripped my promise ring off and shoved it into his chest. I didn't say anything, I just ran. At some point I let my feet rest and sat down on a bench in a small town square. My closed eyes supposedly looking at my bare fingers. I heard 3 sets of footsteps approach me, and a familiar voice ringing through my ears. "Vhat is zhe awesome little Italy doing here?" I could tell he crouched by his voice seeming to move lower. I didn't respond to his question. "Amigo..." Spain sat next to me and hugged me. France sat on the other side so we were shoulder to shoulder. Well, not really since he is taller than me but you get the idea. France sighed, "Mon petite Italy, earlier today I saw you with a blue jeweled ring. Where is it now?" Everyone was amazed he made such a note. I wept, "It's-a gone!!! Just like-a Germany!!!" "Vhat do jou mean?" Prussia asked. "He-a said we-a are through!" I turned into Spain and buried my head into his chest. They all thought for a moment until France spoke up, "And you will just let 'em go?" "What-a else was I supposed to-a do?" "If I were you I would follow zhem to zhe earth so they know how much I love them if I die." I pulled myself away from Spain's chest and turned my sullen face to meet Frances. "Do jou love Germany?" "Sí.." "Zhen show him!! Mon ami he doesn't really hate you!!! He is pushing himself to not like you! So let's get off of jour lazy touché and crash this event non?!" "S-Sí!!" He gave me a little bit of courage. A small flame sparked in my chest, it wasn't as painful as earlier. I stood up and gave each of them a hug,
I'm surrounded by people who love me, now I'm going to go and get the one I love back.
