"I don't know why I still hate you, but at the same time, I don't know why I love you, too."
Germany said as she talked to Russia over the phone.
"So.....this is what you called me for, Gera?" Russia asked in his clear Russian accent, even though he was just talking to Germany on the phone.
"Yes.....but not only that, it's really stupid for me to admit, but I miss you." Germany replied. Germany and Russia were childhood best friends, even best friends until now. Germany works as a call center agent, while Russia works overseas. "Wait, as a friend, or....something more?" Russia asked.
Germany bit her lip. This wasn't the confession she was planning for. "Well......I'll explain in a more simpler way. I like you, but as a crush. I had grown feelings for you, Rus." Germany replied.
Russia sighed. "Why didn't you tell me sooner? I would've told myself sooner if I were you."
Germany fiddled with the piece of paper in front of her, with one hand. "I was too nervous to tell you."
"I'll think about it. I'll tell you my answer the next time we meet again. Goodbye." Russia said as he hung up.
In truth, Russia liked Germany back. He just wasn't too sure if she felt the same, that's why. But now that Germany confessed first, Russia started to think about what he would do when he comes back home.
He didn't tell Germany that he was coming home after the next two days.
'Why not surprise her with her favorite flowers and chocolate? Nah, that's too cliche.'
'Or how about going on a date with her? That would be nice, but that's just cliche too...'
Russia threw his phone in frustration.
'Well, I give up! I don't know what to do-'
'Wait, why not just go slow and and make it simple instead? It's a confession, after all.'

On the day of the twenty-fourth, Russia came back home.
He rode a taxi to Germany's house as soon as he stepped out of the airport.
...
Germany heard the sound of the doorbell ringing as she was making fruit salad for Christmas Eve.
"Gera! Könnten Sie bitte die Tür bekommen?" Germany's mother, Third Reich, who was living with her, shouted from her office.
"Okay, ich kriege die Tür, Mama!" Germany replied. "Coming!" She shouted as she rushed to the door. When she opened the door.....
She saw Russia there, just smiling at her.
Then.......
He simply just hugged Germany.
"I love you too." Was his reply.
