(Finally reached the adulthood arch! Yay! Thanks for reading this far!)

[Back at Britain's house]

Britain sipped from his tea cup. He looked up at Alfred, who was visiting him.

"So, how's my little sister?" Arthur asked with a concerned look on his face. It had been a long time since he saw her.

"I've been told she's doing well."

"Any way, where is she?"

"Can't tell you, that's a secret."

Arthur hated having secrets held from him. He also hated having to communicate to his sister through America, who then tells someone else.

But Britain was prepared. He went to the freezer, and pulled out a large container of ice cream. He placed the container on the table. "If you tell me, this is all yours."

Alfred started to sweat. "Well, I guess telling just you is okay." He stood up, and whispered into his ear.

Arthur dropped the cup. "WHAT!?"

[Time Skip]

Arthur closed the door of the car, and looked at the Italian house. He sighed as he knocked on the door.

A beautiful young, pale, brunette opened the door. She had one dark green eye, and one brown. She wore a short black dress that showed off her womanly curves. Her eyes widened when she saw him.

"A-Arthur?!"

"Do I know you?"

"Come in, I have so much to tell you."

Arthur sat down on the couch.

"It has been a while, I guess. The last time you saw me, I was so little, and I had two green eyes." She smiled.

Arthur widened his eyes. "T-terra?! Is that you?"

"Yes, I'm all grown up."

There was a voice coming from another room.

"Alice, who is it?"

"It's Arthur, Romano."

Arthur could hear Romano's pounding steps as he entered the room.

"What are you doing here?"

"I'm here to see my sister."

"I didn't tell you you can come!"

"Hermano (brother), calm down. Arthur just wanted to see me. No harm done, right?" She smiled a perfect smile up at Romano.

Arthur shook. Hermano? "Since when is he your brother!?"

Alice and Romano looked back at Arthur.

Romano spoke up,"Since you left her here. She needed a brother to raise her!" Romano shook with anger. This is what Spain kept trying to tell him, Arthur would want his sister back one day.

"And since when is one of your eyes brown like his?!" Arthur directed at Terra.

"Well, one day, I woke up and it was like this." There was some kind of accent in her voice. A mixture of British and Italian, but it was mainly Italian. "Listen, you two fight it out, but I will not be the center of this fight." Alice left the room.

She slammed the door behind her and sat down on the stone bench. "Bonjour, Alice." Francis handed her a beautiful white rose.

"Thank you, Francis." Alice took the flower into her hands. Alice slid down the bench so Francis could sit down. "Arthur and Romano are really mad at each other. I'm afraid they'll end up killing each other."

"They wouldn't, because it would make you sad, and they couldn't live with that guilt."

Alice nodded. "I guess that's true."

Francis took another white rose and slipped it behind her ear.

Romano and Arthur walked out of the house. Britain saw France, and his face flushed. Arthur took Alice's hand. "It's time you come back home."

"I agree, Alice. Oliver would never think that you would return to where you were attacked."

Francis coughed so they would acknowledge him. "Don't you think he thought you would try doing what you thought he doesn't expect?"

"Expect the unexpected...." Terra said.

"Exactly!" Francis cleared his throat. "Why do you think Oliver has never been here?"

"Because, he never thought of it?"

"Oh, I'm sure he thought of it. I'm sure he knows Alice is here. I think he's been loitering around Arthur's place, just waiting for someone to tell another where a special someone is, and for that someone to get in the car and visit that special someone."

Alice had replaced the names to Alfred, Arthur, and herself. "He knew Alfred would try doing what he didn't expect. God, this is too complicated!"

Arthur cleared his throat. "So, do what it is in the middle?"

Francis shrugged. "I guess so."

Alice flipped her phone open and went down her contact list. "Germany, we need you here, Oliver is here. Get the others." She shut her phone. "You can come out now, Oliver."

Oliver laughed as he came out from his hiding spot. "You can be so cruel, poppet~."
