CRUEL LOVE (stupid countries! book {Germany})

Chapter seven~ the little sparks of hope bloom~

~Marr's POV~

I strode into the limousine (as Francis called it, I'm not much of an expert on human things), my long teal dress billowing around my tall frame like water would flow about me, making the Frenchman behind me nearly lose his jaw in awe. 

"Mon petit fleur vous ete si belle ce soir...personne n'hesiterait a vous aider..."[1] He purred as we sat down in the plush interior of the metal beast. Which somewhat eased my anxiety as I playfully reprimanded him for his crude (not really) behavior.

"vous feriez bien de remeber Je suis l'amour de l'autre, donc pas d'amour pour toi en ce moment"[2] I laughed as his face deflated then burst into amused laughter as the limo started and gave me a heat attack.

 We soon arrived at Buckingham palace, many cars surrounding the beautiful building, lights illuminating the (so to speak) crown jewel of england. I felt extremely insignificant, even worthless, next to all these graceful men and women standing around me, but then I remembered my mission here, to elicit help to save my soulmate! So I shook my self (literally and metaphorically) of my insecurities and walked into the marvelous structure to acquaint myself with it's attending guests.

~in the ballroom (sorry if i have this totally wrong for anyone who's actually been there)~

I stood to the side of the dance floor, idly chatting with England and a charming mermaid named Star, waiting for an opportunity to elicit their help with Ludwig. " So child where do you hail from?" I asked Star, an attempted smile on my face.

"I, uh, I am from Australia m'lady." Star replied turning a shade whiter for a moment.

"Child," I laughed softly, before placing a hand on her shoulder, "I gave up my titles almost a century past, it would preferable if you could call me Marr, my first name..." Star's eyes widened as i said this, surprised by my amiable behaviors.

"So your that mermaid the bloody Axis captured in Italy?" Arthur queried, surprised by this new info, " I thought they had caught a merry-maid not a siren."

I laughed at his compliment before asking the big question, " Yes, Ludwi- Germany and Italy caught me and then I was given to France as a peace offering... " Arthur and Star gasped, " And that isn't the worst part of my story, Ludwig, well he is my soulmate. He was captured after I left for France by an old enemy of mine- Lucius- to gain leverage against me so I would help

them overthrow our ruling class." Star covered her mouth with a fist in an attempt to stifle a gasp and a couple of sobs that also resulted in this new truth.

"Oh my, is this why you came to the party with that frog, so you could ask for help?" England asked, eyes as wide as saucers.

Suddenly, a blonde man who closely resembled Arthur came bounding towards us, red from running and huffing as though he had run from across the Palace. " Hey dudes-and dudettes! have you seen Melody?" His eyes shone with genuine concern," She was supposed to get here like, I don't know, half an hour ago."

Arthur suddenly chortled a look of 'something funny is about to happen' plastered on his face as he pointed to a rapidly approaching trio made their way over to us, "You nit-wit, there she is....with Antonio and Lovino...." Star's eyes widened as she apparently stifled a gasp of horror.

"crap is about hit the fan..." Star muttered, barley audible to my super hearing as the young man rushed at a tall spainiard in a dark grey suit and punched him in the nose a look of rage on his face as some *ahem* unkind words were shared between them before the girl, (melody i presumed) put a gentle hand on his shoulder, a soft and pleading look on her face.

The aggressive blonde almost immediately calming down and becoming a docile and demur creature in just the blink of an eye.  I was surprised and leaned down to Arthur," Uh what in Iris' name just happened?"

Arthur laughed once again, " That was my idiot little brother Alfred going berserk on Antonio (Spain) because he arrived late to the party with his crush Melody, he really cares about her..." he explained sighing at the younger nations antics. I smiled, if this was who i had to work with to save my soulmate than the sparks of hope i felt in my chest began to bloom into a roaring fire.
