Training was extra hard today. I had to run extra laps for skipping out yesterday and I was so out of breath I could feel my chest rattling.
When I glanced over at Japan, I could tell that he was feeling just as tired. Sweat ran down his brow, but he had a look of determination on his face that I couldn't help but admire. It was almost enough to give me another boost of confidence. Almost.
Then I looked over at Germany, who had long since moved on to push ups. Wearing only a black tank top and green camoflauge shorts, you could see his biceps flex with each rep. His skin glistened with his hard-earned sweat, but he showed no sign of exhausti

Chibitalia looked up from the washtub and giggled. A mother duck was leading her babies in a little duck parade and she thought it was too cute for words. Sighing softly as she played with the soap bubbles, she wished her friend Holy Rome could have seen it, but th

Dead Or Alive ~ GerFem!Ita Chapter 1
The sun beat down on the dusty dirt road that zigzagged across the new country. On the side of the road leaning on a broken carriage, was a woman.
Her hair was slung back into a lazy braid that draped down her back, a curl pointing out of her bangs. Her eyes were closed and her long eyelashes cast shadows onto her olive skin. Her straight nose sniffled slightly at the uncomfortable dryness in her nostrils.
Her ears picked up at the sound of wooden wheels crunching through the dust. Her eyes opening to catch sight of a stagecoach coming close to her, its movement creating giant clouds of dust behind it.

CUT Extra: Feliciano's Thoughts
Four years. It's been four years, right?
It's funny, I thought if I'd just finished it I would be happy and I wouldn't have to worry about anything.
I am happy. Worried? Well, I've got away with murder for four years now. I guess I'm just calm.
The calmest I've ever been in a long time. No alcohol, no pills... Just me and the music that plays on repeat everyday.
Although, I think Lovino knows. I think he's known for a while and hasn't said anything about it. You would think I'd be worried about that. Being paranoid isn't my biggest problem.
When I'm asleep, and only when I'm asleep, I keep having this recurring dream. Dark hallway, doors

CUT Extra: Lovino's Thoughts
For the past three years I’ve been thinking to myself a lot.
Mostly about Feliciano. About what happened that night he went with Ludwig.
He told me they were only going to talk but he didn’t come back that night and it did scare the shit out of me. He wasn’t ready to be around Ludwig on his own, Feliciano wasn’t stable enough.
Or, at least I thought he wasn’t.
Around six or seven in the morning I stayed up waiting for him, half asleep myself. Feliciano finally walked in the house and I couldn’t help but yell at him. I was scared for him! Besides, he just smiled back and told me he was okay.
Which I did
My body hurts.
My head hurts.
It hurts to move.
I had woken up early before the sun rose up. Looking around, I can see Ludwig beside me in his bed. In his room. Everything about last night left my head and had me thinking of what I had done. I gave in. I was weak! I let him use me and I couldn’t even fight back!
Use?
Fight?
I don’t think those are the right words to use. That whole night was just flipped and went by too quick. I couldn’t say no, I guess. Or... I didn’t want to say no. Damn it.
Slowly, I shifted to the side, rolling over to try and see the door from across the room. The only light that was coming
The noise got louder as I walked closer to the top of the stairs. Lovino was steady showing as Antonio tried to calm him down. I leaned on the wall and sighed, something is telling me I know who he might be yelling out. A part of me wanted to go back in my room and stay under the covers until he left. But then... I sighed again and slowly walked down the stairs. Everything getting louder as I got closer.
“You’re such a fucking idiot! It isn’t like he wants to see you anyway.”
“I just want to talk to him.” Ludwig sighs, “You can’t even let me have that?”
“Bullshit. I’m not le
