Fallen~GerIta

Chapter twenty

I-a honestly didn't see this-a coming.

Once I-a got back to my town, it was absolutely pouring.

I knew-a why of course, I had caused it.

I finally calmed down later, but now, it was starting to rain again.

"D-Doitsu?" I asked, my voice quivering a little.

He nodded, "Hallo Italia...." He said awkwardly, looking as though he wanted to say more.

I tried to find words, but my voice had-a definitely failed me.

I coughed and shivered as the rain hit me.

He watched me for a moment, and sighed.

"Ve should go inside to talk." He murmured and took my arm and half-dragged me inside my place.

He-a took me into the living room and since he knew where-a everything was, he tossed me a towel with ease.

He studied the rain for a moment and looked over to me with a sad expression.

"Vhy are you sad." He asked.

I looked up and shook my head, closing my eyes and lightning hit, but I knew it wasn't regular lightning.

It was the electricity piercing my heart, causing the lightning.

The rain was simply the sadness inside me, and the dark was what I felt.

I looked up, "Why are you-a here. You don't-a love me. So why." I asked, sounding absolutely depressed and forced.

He shook his head, "I never even answered Italia....you didn't give me a chance..." He said quietly.

I watched him for a moment, "But-a Doitsu, I've-a given you....years." I said wiping away my tears and hugging the towel over my body protectively.

He walked over and knelt in front of me.

"Italia...do you know vhy it took me zhis long?" He asked and I forced myself to look at him.

"Why." I asked as new tears soaked my towel.

"Because I vas just afraid how you vould even love somevun, like me, back." He said and took my hand.

I watched him for a moment with a surprised look.

"Why-a wouldn't I? Sure, we have all-a done things in the past, but that shouldn't intervene with love!" I said starting to be become a little happy.

He watched me for a moment, looking as though he tried to collect the information I just provided him with.

"Du....du liebst mich dann?" He said and I nodded.

He watched me for a moment, took a deep breath, and said.

"Ich Leibe Dich."

Time seemed to freeze for a few moments, as we stared at each other.

I felt myself tearing up again, but this time, it wasn't tears of sadness. Oh no.

It was tears of Joy.

I pulled him in and hugged him tightly, to which he merely chuckled and held me.

He rubbed my back and I pulled away.

"Ti Amo!" I said happily and cupped his face in my hands, before leaning in and kissing him happily.

He pulled me closer and deepened the kiss.

I pulled away, and he was smiling.

Germany, was-a smiling!

I guess you could-a say I was the one who finally made him smile.
