Hiking Trip

On the second day everyone woke up bright and early. Apparently today they were going to have a hiking trip up the mountain. The area they stayed in was pretty well known for their mountains and beautiful scenery.

One thing America noticed the night he'd been here was the crickets were extremely loud. America was a light sleeper so it was hard for him to go to sleep that night. When morning came he was in a daze and constantly zoned out.

"Good morning America~" a chinese man walked up to him, already fully dressed and ready for the day. "Good morning."

"What happened to you? You look like shit." China pointed his fingers straightforwardly at the American.

America rubbed his eyes again for the hundredth time, "I didn't get much sleep, the crickets were really loud."

"Oh I see, well I just heard we were going hiking today. How troublesome..." China grumbled as he put his finger on his chin, his narrow eyes only appearing to be slits.

America yawned, "I'm too exhausted for this." Just as he said that, China noticed a familiar tall figure walking up to them. A sly grin appeared on China's face.

"I'll carry you if you get too tired~" China said flirtatiously and moved his face closer. America shoved his face away, "in your dreams, quit wasting your acting abilities, but maybe I'll consider your offer if my legs break on the way." America replied jokingly.

As soon as America finished his sentence he walked away to join the gathering outside.

Russia and China made eye contact, the taller male's face was pretty scary, definitely pissed, looked like he could decapitate a person right there. China found his response amusing and stuck his tongue out teasingly.

China immediately fled, knowing the results of his actions would be ugly.

Everyone gathered outside, the camera was already rolling as the host explained that today they'd be having a friendly little hike. Later they would work together to set up fires and tents and such.

They would stay a day in the woods, America would rather kill himself than have to suffer another night with the annoying crickets. Especially when they're right next to him now.

"America lets stay close so we don't get lost." Russia whispered to the american next to him.

America couldn't suppress the smile threatening to appear on his face. "Sure." He whispered back.

And so everyone started to climb, the path was a little rocky, it also had a few twist and turns but nothing too bad. America wasn't fragile or delicate by any means so doing this task wasn't hard at all.

Sometimes America would accidentally run into a tree branch or something since he was a little sleepy. Russia would always catch him before he fell since the Russian followed America right behind him.

But to America's surprise, suddenly something appeared in front of his legs. It strangely resembled a leg. It came out of nowhere and he was off guard, causing him to trip forward and roll sideways.

Russia couldn't catch him because he was also caught off guard and the American tripped forward while Russia was behind him.

Right next to the path was a small slope downwards, America plunged down. When he landed he heard a spine chilling crack coming from his leg.

"Well shit, It seems like I Injured my foot." America wriggled his foot a little only for immense pain to shoot up him leg.

He slowly rose up, using the tree next to him as support. He walked towards the slope, trying his best not to put any pressure on his injured leg.

America wasn't delicate, he could do at least this much on his own. Nor was he dumb. The thing that tripped him was definitely a foot, he noticed the shoe the mysterious person was wearing was identical to the shoes the staff wore.

'Well looks like they're gonna be assholes to me for the rest of the show... oh well." America shrugged it off. Usually a person would be absolutely livid, but not America.

"America are you okay??" A slightly panicked and concerned voice echoed down the slope. It was Russia.

America sighed in relief that someone would be able to help him, "Yeah I'm fine but I think I injured my leg, I can't climb the slope."

"Don't move I'll come down and get you."

Russia's voice suddenly turned serious and stiff.

"Um okay then..." America glanced at his leg and walked closer to the slope, limping.

Suddenly a figure jumped down perfectly on their two feet. "Are you okay??" His eyes were wide and turbulent, filled with anxiety he couldn't conceal despite being an actor.

The Russian's gaze shifted to the American's leg which was now bleeding through his pants. "Ah shit I think I cut myself on something as well on my way down."

America tried to bend down a little to check his leg but another round of pain shot through his leg causing him to jerk back.

"Stop moving." Russia gripped this shoulder and swept the America off his feet. "Hah? Wait no put me down this is embarrassing!!"

"I have to get you out of here somehow, and this is the easiest way,"

America's face went through a roulette of red and pink and white. "Okay then..."

The Russian's movement was swift and he didn't shake that much even while climbing the slope. America fiddled with his hoodie strings as he waited patiently for them to reach the top.

Russia took extra precautions to not cause any discomfort, focusing entirely on climbing up.

Once they did reach the top, Russia breathed out a small sigh of relief. America tapped him on the shoulder, "you can put me down now, I'll manage."

The Russian hesitantly set him down and placed America's arm around his shoulders. "Use me as support, be careful." His eyes rippled with tenderness.

"Okay." America smiled in gratefulness, "sorry for troubling you." He added before they started moving.

"Not at all." Russia replied, he cautiously watched each step America took making sure he doesn't trip again.

'Really not at all...'
