Dream or Reality? (part one)
Was last night all just a dream? Was this all just an illusion created by my mind to make me believe everything was real, then crush me down with the bitter coldness of reality? "There's only one way to find out..." I thought to myself as I opened my eyes. The first thing I noticed when I opened my eyes was Roderich sitting in a chair at the side of my bed. "So it wasn't an illusion..." I thought out loud. "Hm? What wasn't an illusion?" Roderich asked upon hearing what I said. "Good morning, Roderich. I'll explain after we've had breakfast and I've woke up a bit more." I said as I got out of bed and prepared myself for the day. When I arrived in the kitchen, I noticed breakfast was already made: fancy crepes with strawberry filling and a cup of tea for each of us! Roderich saw how surprised I was that breakfast was already made and said "I thought that since you bought dinner, the least I could do is make breakfast.". I smiled and thanked him for making such a wonderful meal as we sat down to eat. After breakfast, Roderich asked me "So, what did you think was an illusion earlier?". "Well, to be honest, all of this. Being a country, having friends that were countries, meeting you... Basically, everything that's happened over the last few days involving me being a country." I said. Roderich merely nodded his head as if to say "Go on". "Well, after what you said last night, I was worried that I'd wake up back in my own house and be forced to continue living life as a human, which would have been really depressing." I said as I started to wash the dishes. Upon hearing that, Roderich got up from his chair, hugged me, and said "You have nothing to worry about. We're both countries and we're both real.". After saying that, he headed for the living room and started to play a calming version of Beethoven's Ode to Joy. After finishing the dishes, I heard a knock at the door. "Can't we even have our first day as a couple in peace?" I asked as I answered the door. There, standing at the doorstep, was America. "Palamecia?" he asked. "Hello, America. What brings you to Roderich's house so early?" I asked. "I just stopped by to visit. Why are you at Austria's house?" America responded, clearly surprised to see me here. "Oh? No one told you that we're allies yet?" I said and before I knew it, America was hugging me. "We're also a couple." I said, trying to get the country off of me. "Oh. My bad. Sorry, Austria!" America said as he backed away nervously. "Well, I guess I'll be going." he said as he ran out the door. "Ugh! First Denmark, then America! Why do these countries think they can just hug me without warning?" I wondered out loud as I sat down in an armchair. "Oh well, atleast it wasn't Prussia, Hungary, or Iceland!" I added. The rest of the day went by peacefully until evening. After dinner, Prussia arrived at the door. "Gilbert, what do you wa--?" I nearly asked when I noticed something different about him, namely the fact that he could barely stand up! "Oh my gosh! Roderich, Prussia is hurt bad!" I shouted. Prussia might get on my nerves most of the time, but what was important is that he needed help!
