(Orginal half of chapter 7 written by xXgabystarXx, the other by yours truly)
Today was the day. Internally screaming, Matthew took a deep breath and made sure he had everything ready.
The world meeting was gonna be wild today.
Alfred didn't seem to care, being a toddler. He had other things to think about. Like how do birds fly? Or what's cereal made of?
Matthew meanwhile was sharpening his hunting knife just incase push came to shove. And knowing how violent some nations could be, it most likely would. Luckily, he had Cuba, Prussia and a few others who would certainly have his back.
Stepping into the airport felt awkward to him. Like everyone was staring at him. But Matthew wouldn't let this stop him. He would not let the tiny little personification in his care be hurt. If any nation dared to do something, they'd suffer by his hands.
Once on the plane, he got some looks from other passengers, seeing as Alfredo Sauce was a itty bitty toddler and usually toddlers or infants on planes are not a good idea.
"Daddy where are we going?" Alfred kicked his feet in the airplane chair as Matthew buckled him in. He was sucking his thumb again(Which Matthew had told him not too-)
"We're going somewhere far away, because I have to work and I couldn't find a sitter."
Hey, this is where I take over lol.
Alfred seemed to accept this as he looked around, Matthew watched him for a second. Memories of his little brother flashed for a second, he shook his head as if to force them away.
Alfredo Sauce looked to be getting bored after some time, he was a toddler with the attention span of a minute. So,this wasn't suprising at all. He started bouncing in his seat more and kept glancing at Matthew. Unfortunately, Matthew could not recognize the signs just yet. So, Alfred was getting increasingly more agitated and a few of the other passengers eye his wearily.
Of course, then Matthew realised the boy was bored and in a desperate attempt to please the boy he hands him the rabbit. Naturally, it calms him and he plays with the rag doll like toy, seemingly satisfied. Matthew lets out a sigh of relief and so dot he others around them.
Considering watching a movie, Matthew watches Alfredo Sauce for a second and decided that he has to watch the kid. Though, he could have Alfred watch a movie so he can relax. Taking out his phone, he brings up a movie that's suitable for kids. A Disney movie for the nation under him, kids there love those right? He wouldn't know, kids are super weird anyway.
Giving the blonde some headphones, Alfred looked at them like they were completely strange, which to a three year old from before the starving times it is. Matthew gently places them on the blonde head, the stubborn cowlick diffiantly stood up.
Just like my brothers.Matthew thought before shaking said thought away. It would only depress him after all. His brother was always a sore subject, but oh does he miss him.
"Daddy, what is this thing?" Alfred asks pulling at the headphones
"They're called headphones, they go on your head and play music and other sounds into your ear." Matthew almost slapped himself at the vague answer.
"Sooo, like magic?" The young boy asked excitedly
"N-" Matthew thought about it "Sure, like magic."
"Cool!" Alfred said, apparently already picking up on some more modern slang.
"Now, we are gonna watch a movie-" Matthew said
"Mooo-vie. What's that?" Alfred asks
"Um, a story or event recorded by a camera as a set of moving images and shown in a theater or on television; a motion picture." Matthew said reciting the text book definition, at the look Alfred gave he said "It's basically a story told through moving pictures."
The young troublemaker nodded slowly, still not quite getting the concept, but he would find out.
Anyway, turns out the movie wasn't made by Disney but rather Dreamworks. It was called the Prince of Egypt. Alfred was entranced by the movie, he muttered about mommy a few times but nothing else was said.
Finally able to relax, Matthew slumps down exhausted. The toddler had more energy than the entirety of North America's power grid and Matthew will stand by this statement. He is always running around causing trouble and waring Matthew thin. It was times like these that Matthew wondered if there was a return policy on small three year old nations.
But, Matthew reasons, he does have a good heart. Not something he expected from the small superpower, he apologizes and is so sweet sometimes. Matthewwould probably kill for the adorable little boy.
He didn't even notice when they landed, watching the boy tiredly. But, he did eventually and started to grab his things and charge.
Matthew and Alfred roll out is style, literally as he had a stroller. The boy kinda stole Matthew's phone and was playing with the strange black box. Matthew was dreading the meeting, that much is obvious, but whatever happens no one is touching his Alfred without bodily harm.
A/N- I'm very happy to present chapter 7! It's a bit shorter than I usually would write but whatever, I had fun. Sorry if it sucked, I really did try.
What is editing?
Au Revoir!
