Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare early in his career about two young star-crossed lovers whose deaths ultimately reconcile their feuding families. It was among Shakespeare's most popular plays during his lifetime and along with Hamlet, is one of his most frequently performed plays. Today, the title characters are regarded as archetypal young lovers. Cover done by @zuko_42

Alfred and Ivan come from two extremely different worlds. Ivan from a dirty, run down shack. Alfred from a beautiful white mansion. Neither are very happy with their lives, they both have so many different responsibilities. But once in a while, the two boys have some time to escape their lives and meet in the clearing in the woods near their homes. Miles may separate these two physically, but nothing can keep them apart. Or so they thought. This is a tale of two boys who will do anything to be with each other. But how far are they really willing to go? How much are they willing to sacrifice? Only time will tell as these boys become men. RusAme fluff in my own personal AU. I don't own 'Hetalia' or the characters, but I do own this story. It's fiction so anything related to actual events is merely coincidence. Thanks for reading.

"Anna Karenina" is the tragedy of married aristocrat and socialite Anna Karenina and her affair with the affluent Count Vronsky. The story starts when she arrives in the midst of a family broken up by her brother's unbridled womanizing—something that prefigures her own later situation, though with less tolerance for her by others.
