One Shots

You Hit Me (Gerita/Spamano)

Italy

"Germany are you sure about this?" I ask gently.

My Doitsu, who I thought wouldn't ever hurt a fly for my sake, has now started murdering innocents simply because of their religion. Some have even been taken because of their hair and eye color. He worships what that horrible man says and if I say anything against it.....he trains me till I nearly drop dead.

Sure his temper has been a bit wild lately but we're different than normal humans. Japan is just as scared as I am but he never says anything that directly goes against Doitsu's orders anyways.

I'm jolted back into reality as I get roughly slammed against the wall. My eyes widen as they lock with Germany's. This is the same wall he....he.....

"What the hell is wrong with you!" Doitsu shouts.

"D-Doitsu I-"

SLAM

Tears form in my eyes as I realize I'm trapped between Doitsu's arms. There's no where to run, no one's here to save me this time!

"I've babysat you for far to long! It's time you meet my requirements!"

"Ludwig stop it!" I sob out. "You're scaring me!"

The world seems to slow as I watch the hand that held mine raise before slamming against my cheek. My hand flies up over my cheek. He hit me!

"YOU NEVER DO ANYTHING RIGHT!"

Sobs escape from me as Ludwig continues to hit me. This isn't him! This can't be the same man who promised my safety! Who promised to protect me from the abuse his people would shout at me for my hair and eye color!

"YOU'LL MEET MY REQUIREMENTS AND IF YOU DON'T I'LL KILL YOU!"

Slowly I slide down the wall and curl myself into a little ball. All I can do is tremble and sob into my arms as Doitsu hyperventilates. He hit me! More than once!

"Hey hey! Shh Feliciano look at me." Almost a complete change of tone and personality.

Slowly I peak out of my little ball to find myself staring straight into Ludwig's icy blue eyes.

"I'm so sorry." He whispers and attempts to place his hand on my shoulder but I shrug away.

"D-don't touch me!" I cry.

"Feli please! Just calm down and listen to me!" He sounds so sincere! Like he loves me!

"Y-you hit me! You hurt me!" I don't want to be here anymore! This doesn't seem like my home at all!

"Let me help you Italia." This time I allow Ludwig to place his hand gently on my shoulder.

"Big B-Brother. I want my fratello!"

A sigh escapes my German. He knows I'm not going to keep quiet about his. I can't! Lovi will be able to notice something happened! The whole country of Italy will know.

"Listen to me Feli." It's back, he's back.

"N-No please!" I sob and pull out my white flag. "Non mi ha colpito di nuovo!"

"WHAT DID YOU FUCKING DO TO HIM BASTARD!"

My eyes go to the door where I find Lovi and Toni stood. Fratello looks pissed but Toni just looks horrified.

"I DIDN'T-"

"H-He didn't mean to....It was my fault Lovino."

Why the words left my mouth is unknown. If I let Lovi believe Luddy hit me because he just lost his temper (the real reason) he'll take me away. He'll break the alliance and that'll be the end of things. Lovi doesn't realize that no matter what I'll always see good in Ludwig. His country and himself are going through a dark time right now, but that doesn't make what Ludwig is doing okay. Soon he'll realize that. Soon he'll realize I shouldn't have to hide behind a hood to feel safe when I walk to buy food.
