Forgotten memories (Prussia's past) part 3

Jacob watched Gilbert as he ate some beef stew that was made and yawned, cleaning the dishes up. "lil red, want to sleep? We were awake for a while now, we can sleep in this morning.."

A flicker of confusion crossed the albinos face."lil' red?"

"Yes, lil red...because you have the most beautiful crimson red eyes.... and im taller than you" Jacob hugs Gilbert from behind, showing their height difference, making the smaller male pout and the taller one chuckle, kissing him softly to shut him up.

Gil parts the kiss and smils softly. "You...saved me from the priest...your my gardian angel..." Jacob smiled softly. "Well i dont know about guardian angel but...thank you all the same..." Gil nodded and blinked sleepily, tugging Jacob along to sleep on the cot with him, and soon they both drifted off into a peacefull sleep.

Gilbert woke up the next morning to the smell of food, his stomach grumbling on cue so he stood and walks to the kitchen, where Jacob silently cooks eggs and sausage. "It smells really nice...Jacob..." Jacob smiles in response as he puts the plate down in front of Gilbert on the table. He eats as Jacob watches him and he blushes feeling uncomfortable being watched so much. "Can you stop staring please?"

Jacob smiled and leaned in, kissing Gilbert on the mouth softly, full of passion and....a hint of love...

Gils eyes closed halfway as his face blushed even darker, quickly pushing Jacob away.  "Idiot! What was that for?!?"

Jacob smiled. "What are you not used to kisses?"

Gil turned away embarrassed. "N-Not really...."

This makes Jacob chuckle and stand up from his place at the table. "I'll be back lil red" Gil looked up at him. "Where are you going?"

"Im going to pick some strawberries from a strawberry patch nearby" Gil looked down and twirled his thumbs. "Can I come?" Jacob simply kissed him with a small smirk and grabbed a small wooden basket. "Come on then" They walked out the cabin into the forest...Jacob led them back to the dirt path then crossed over to the other side of the forest. "Jacob where are you going?"

"Well, you wanted to come with me to pick strawberries right?"

"Yes, but I thought we were going into town" Jacob chuckles and keeps on walking through the branbles and dense forest untill about a mile in, the area clears up to a beautiful strawberry patch. Vines flowed this way and that, curving around the green grass like snakes. Gilbert could do nothing but stare in awe. Jacob took out the basket and started picking the small red fruit from the vines.

"Jacob are you sure picking these are alright?"

He chuckles softly. "Yes this area had been abandoned by farmers many years ago.."

The albino nodded softly, "Oh..okay then" 

"Hey lil red, want to hear a story?" Gil nods as he sits on a patch of grass between the vines and fruit. As Jacob continued picking he spoke. "God made a Man and a Woman to go with the Man.

One day the Man had an argument with the Woman and she left, in her anger. The Man soon regretted his words and ran afrer his wife, but everyone knows that an angry woman does not hear well and she kept on walking, using her anger to keep going. He Man soon fell behind quickly and burst into tears, so God went to the Man and asked: "Why are you crying?" The Man explained and at the end of his story he said "I regret what I said, I wish i can just have my wife back. I love her, but shes walking away with such anger I cant keep up with her, please help me!!" The Man cried. God nodded and said: "I will help you" so He went ahead to where the woman was walking and thought: I should stop her with beauty and fruit. So he touched the Earth and trees sprouted up and grew luscious pears but the woman ignored it and kept on walking. He grew apples and grapes but as the Woman kept on walking and the Man started loosing hope, God said: "I will have to create a new fruit to catch her attention, low to the groumd so she will see them"

So he touched the ground once more and vines grew around the path, the red strawberries round and bright red. As the woman walked she stepped on the strawberries, and soon the sweet aroma hit her nose. She stopped and plucked a few and as she did she heard her husband calling her. She stood and say the Man finally catching up to her, and panting, he tells her. "Im very sorry, will you pleased forgive me" and the Woman smiles and apologizes as well, and they sit down, eating the strawberries together.

To this day the strawberry represents two hearts together as one." When Jacob finishes the story he looks to Gilbert and he's smiling like a blushing idiot.

"What?" Gil blushes harder. "That as a beautiful story..."

"Well that's how strawberries came to be..."

"I like it..." the shy man spoke as he looked to the side. Jacob chuckles and bites into a strawberry happily. Gil watches him eat it, blushing as the juice tints his lips and blushing as bright as a strawberry, he quickly pecks Jacob on the lips. Jacob, surprised, looks to Gil and a slow smirk plays on his lips. "Brave aren't we?" Gil blushes harder as he turns away from the other. "shut up..."

In a flash Gil was pinned down and kissed passionately by Jacob. "Then don't mind if I'm bold hmm~?" he said. Gil gulped knowing what was to come.
