Chapter 9

(Next Monday at school)

Russia walked alongside America, humming to herself. She looked up and saw Finland. "Ame, I'm gonna go talk to a friend quickly, be right back" America looked at her. "Ok, sure" America walked away and hid in a hall near Russia. She went to Finland. "Fin, listen-" "Leave me alone. I don't want to speak to you." "Please, liste-" "I said, LEAVE ME ALONE." He shoved her, making her fall back. She got up, tears in her eyes and ran away. Sweden looked at Fin and sighed. "Do you have to be so hars-" "Shut up Sweden." Sweden went silent and got his stuff, then left for his class. America growled, angry at Fin's actions. He went and followed Russia. She went to a tree behind the school and sat there crying. America went to her and hugged her. "It's my fault, I hurt his feelings-" "Shh, it's ok..." Russia hugged America as tears flowed down her face. America put a hand on her cheek and wiped her tears away. "I'm here for you.." He leaned in and planted a small kiss on her lips. She smiled. "По крайней мере, у меня есть ты.." He nodded and got up. "Let's go in now, before it's too late" She got up and held his hand, then walked in with him. 

(After School)

Russia got home. USSR looked at her. "Well, you look happy today" "Yeah, just had a mostly good day.." She went to her room. She looked through her pictures from the sleepover and sighed sadly. She liked America, sure, but Finland... he was different, he actually seemed to have liked her. America was a nice guy, but she only liked him as a friend. She laid down on her bed and tried to fall asleep, when her phone got a notification. It was a message from America.

America

Hey Ruski!

Hey Ame

I wanted to invite you to hang out at my house :D

Sure, what time?

Around 8:00? 

Ok then

Russia put her phone away and just laid there, thinking. Soon enough, she fell asleep. 

Empty. There's nothing here.. where am I? Don't worry about it.. 

An alarm rung and Russia woke up, startled. She got up and put on a sweater and some jeans with sneakers. She stretched and went to the bathroom, tying her hair up in a ponytail. She walked downstairs. "Where do you think you're going, молодая леди?" USSR looked at her, expecting an answer. Russia laughed quietly and looked at her dad. "Promise you won't get mad if I tell you?" "Unless it's a crime you're gonna go do, I won't." "I'm going on a date.." USSR looked at her blankly, then smiled. "Who's the lucky guy to date my daughter?" Russia didn't think this through, USSR didn't like America very much after the Cold War. She inhaled. "I gotta go, bye-" USSR looked at her confused. "Ok..? Bye" She left. 

(A while later- again lol)

America opened the door and smiled. "Hi, Ruski!" "Hi, Ame" Russia walked in. "So, what do you wanna do?" Russia looked at America. "Uh, I don't know-" She was cut off by America wrapping his arms around her waist and pulling her close. He smirked. "Maybe we could-?" "Америка, нет!" Her face was red. He chuckled. "Ok, fine." He picked her up bridal-style and carried her to the sofa. "Movie timeeeee~" Russia giggled at America's excitement. Maybe America wasn't so bad. Russia still thought about Finland a lot. She sighed. America looked at her. "You okay, Ruski?" "Yeah.." He sat by her and hugged her. She smiled. "Просто думать о вещах.." Time passed and soon they both fell asleep until Russia had to leave.
