Japan was over there quite quickly.
He grabbed Italy from Germany and quickly rolled him up in a blanket, gave him snacks, and put on a show for him.
“This is what we call the sad sushi roll technique. It is quite effective.” Japan explained.
Italy fell asleep after a few hours. His face looking peaceful but still tear-stained. Germany sighed and stood up, he looked at Japan who was staring out the window.
His face wasn't restful but terrified. “Japan what-” Germany stopped in his tracks. Russia was there with his pipe.
“Hello, da. Mind letting me in?”
Germany opened the door, signalling everyone to surround Italy.
Russia's eerie smile, pierced the heart of Romano and Japan. That cause them both to become shaky and fall. Russia looked towards them, then towards Germany.
“Can I speak to Italy.” Italy shakily came out of the ring. Germany stood in front of him, cutting him off from getting closer to Italy.
Russia gave a disturbing smile, Italy pushed Germany softly out of the way so he wouldn't get hurt by Russia.
“Hi there Russia!” He gave the brightest smile he could in such a grim situation.
Luckily the English brothers were walking by Italy's house at that time. Through the window you could somewhat see how horrified Italy was.
The three seized this opportunity to help out Italy. England knocked on the door. Russia opened the door, clenching his teeth in annoyance.
“Hello da!” He said, annoyance lingering in his seemingly happy greeting. England moved past Russia without a second to spare. He motioned for America and Canada to come along.
Italy squeaked as the three surrounded him, tightening the extra space to make a hug. Italy squirmed slightly but gave up.
“Italy can I speak to you alone?”
Italy opened his mouth to speak but he was halted by Germany, “No you cannot,” Germany spat.
His expression was tainted by anger. Russia looked surprised, he growled slightly before walking off.
Italy sobbed, he was clinging onto those who surrounded him.
Germany was slightly upset that he could not be one of those who comforted Italy but at least he got Russia away.
“Thank you… Doitsu.” He whimpered. Germany placed a firm kiss on Italy's forehead.
He shrunk down beside Italy motioning for the other three to step away. The three went back and Germany hugged Italy.
”Whenever you're in trouble I'll be there to protect you. And whenever I'm in trouble you must do the same. Although I won't get my hopes up.”
Germany spoke softly, adding a chuckle to the last part.
Italy hugged back, “Thank you, Doitsy.” Germany blushed slightly, he lowered his arms.
Italy did the same, the two smile at each other before standing up. “Could one of you go report Russia to the police? The rest stay here.” Germany ordered, Spain opted to go report Russia to the police. Germany sat Italy on the couch and gave him some leftover, microwaved pasta.
“I know it's not ideal but I haven't had the chance to go shopping.” Italy only smiled, he glanced at the pasta before returning his focus to Germany.
“It's perfect Germany.” Germany sat beside Italy Japan on the other side. They watched Shrek together.
About 30 minutes in Italy fell asleep. He was unmoving but laid down on Germany.
A few hours later everyone had left besides the residents of the house. Prussia, Spain, and Romano were sleeping. Germany had cancelled work for that day.
Italy woke up to see Germany asleep, they were laying down. Italy was laying on top of him. He had been cuddling Germany.
Italy chuckled slightly, a small tent of red spreading from cheek to cheek. He just laid back down and fell asleep.
Something repeated in his mind though. It was the thing Germany had said. It had made him extremely happy that night.
Whenever you're in trouble I'll be there to protect you. And whenever I'm in trouble you must do the same. Although I won't get my hopes up.
