Heta Oni (Italy X Reader)

Part Seven

You went through the magic circle and everything began to spin. Not a normal, I-stood-up-to-fast kind of spinning, an I'm-gonna-pass-out kind of spinning. A scene spread out before your eyes of a-no, the piano room-and... Italy Veneziano.

"Italy?! You're alive! And how did I get here? I was in Germany's secret room, and I think I might've passed out... When did you wake up?!"

"I've been awake, bella." You felt something... give your body a slight push. You looked around. Nothing. Not even an incoming Oni. "Bella, is-a something wrong?"

"No, no no. Nothing is wrong. And my name is ____, by the way." That was when sound exploded in your ear. 

"____?! Are you-" You put your hands over your ears. Alfred was too loud. But Alfred... wasnt there. Wasn't even in the room.

I'm passed out... and in Italy's dream-thing...

You thought, with a strange clarity. "Ita-Italy... this isnt real." You said through your teeth with clenched fists.

"What was-a that, Bella?"

"I said. This. Is. Not. Real. It is a dream. You are in the mansion, unconscious. Germany is worried, Romano is worried, everyone is worried, I was worried. I am worried."

"Bella, you shouldn't-a be worried. I am-a right here."

"I can see you are here, but the point is you aren't there.""Bella, you shouldn't-a be worried. I am-a right here."

"I can see you are here, but the point is you aren't there. You are alive, but you aren’t alive there. In the real world. Where all your friends are." You looked at the floor. It was so frustrating. And telling Italy might not have been the very best idea… But you did it.

“My… Friends? They are all he-”

“No they aren’t Italy, and if you don’t realize that and try to wake up, they will die again. How many more times do we all have to suffer, Italy? We can get out this time, you just have to wake up! Spain and Romano are here to help you, and you just go and die when they finally do get here? You can't do this to us!” You were so caught up in the moment you hadn’t realized you had said ‘we’… and ‘we’… and ‘we’. You knew it was probably a bad idea to say that, since you hadn’t physically suffered, but you had suffered enough. Especially since Italy is your favorite character in the series. “Italy, please, try and realize that you need to wake up.” Something snapped. You felt it snap, like an actual crackle in the air, and you fell. Italy grabbed your hand and fell with you, like a hole in the floor was swallowing you two up.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You woke up in a bed, with Italy standing over you.

“Bella!~ you are awake!~” You sat up to fast.

“Ouch, my head… Did I hit it when I fell, Alf?”

“Yeah… on a table.”

“Are you-a okay?” Romano asked, pretending like he didn’t care. You smiled.

“Yeah… I think I am…”

And I know I am going to get out of here. With everyone.
