(Y/N) Pov:

I was still sleeping when I heard the door opening. I jolt up and quickly hide under the bed (not the best hideout I know).
I was concentrated on my breathing, that way it didn't get too loud and it wouldn't betray me. I spared a glance out of the bed and, there before me, was standing Christoph in all it's glory.

I raise my head, forgetting that I was under a bed, and hit my head on the bed's boards, hurting me painfully and waking up Berthold on the way.

Christoph jumped from the noise and looked back at me who were crawling out of the bed, whispering profanities. I finally get out and stood up while apologizing to Berthold who sat on the bed with a tired look.

"Wo waren Sie?" (Where were you?) He asked to Christoph. It's when I realized that Christoph was pretty nervous and seemed...Scared?

"What happened?" I asked to myself but he seemed to hear it anyways.

"Ich wurde von einem Beamten zu jemanden gebracht, der mich sehen wollte." (I was taken by an officer to someone who wanted to see me.)

I raised an eyebrow, why would an officer care to bring a simple soldier and to who?

"Who?" He swallowed and looked down, sweat rolling on his forehead.

"...Das...Deutsch Reich." (...The...German Empire)

"WAS!!!?"/ "What!!!?"

Needless to say, we were surprised.

"You- you mean THE German Empire!? Like the countryhuman!?" I panicked.

"Was wollte er von dir!!?"(What did he want from you!!?) Berthold panicked too.

Christoph winced at the yelling and was starting to get very nervous; he panicked too. So here we were, three people in a room all panicking about the outcomes of the situation.

"Ja, dieser." (Yes, this one.) Christoph replied. I was starting to feel dizzy, for a bit I forgot that there were really countryhumans here due to not seeing any and we never talked about it so I kinda forget ant the shock of the realisation hit hard.

Okay, I got over it, now Berthold's question, why the hell would the German Empire wants to see Christoph?!

"Okay but, like Berthold asked, what did he want?! And particularly from you!" At this point, me and Berthold were circling Christoph and asked him bunchs of questions to which he didn't have time to answer.

"Verlangsamen!"(Slow it down!)Christoph exclaimed, we remembered that the others were probably sleeping so we shut up and sat down on our beds, me and Berthold facing Christoph.

"Danke..."(Thank you...) Christoph whispered while putting his face in his hands. We looked at him with worried looks.

"Mein Freund, was ist passiert?"(My friend, what happened?) Berthold said calmly. He received no answer. We share a look and looked back at Christoph when we heard him crying.

"Es tut mir Leid..."(I'm sorry...) He sobbed. I go to his bed and sit down next to him. I pat his back to confort him even if I didn't know from what.

"Shhh... It's fine" He continued sobbing while repeating the same words all over again. At some point he stopped talking but was still crying slightly.

"Geht's dir jetzt gut?"(Are you okay now?) Berthold asked.

"Ja, danke."(yes, thank you) Christoph said weakly. He turned to look at me with sad eyes.

"Danke, (Y/N), ich verdiene deine Freundlichkeit nicht."(Thanks, (Y/N), I don't deserve your kindness.)

"Don't say such things, you deserve way more than that." He turned his head towards Berthold, not wanting to face me.

"Ich habe ihm alles erzählt." (I told him everything.) He maintened his stare with Berthold. "Alles über (Y/N)"(everything about (Y/N).) My breathing stopped, what?

"What do you mean everything?" I asked him nervoulsy. He broke his staring contest with Berthold and sighed, looking at the ground.

"Deinen Namen, die Zeiten, in denen du erschienen bist und wann du uns geheilt hast."(Your name, the times where you appeared and when you healed us.)

I froze, I didn't expect that, didn't expect that at all. But it was meant to happen one day or another, I can't hide forever but I didn't think it would be so soon!
I looked at Christoph who was staring at the ground and was most likely going to burst into tears once again. I grab his arm, getting his attention.

"It's fine Christoph, you have nothing to blame yourself for. I'm not mad at you, just surprised." He looked up at me in shock.

"Wirklich?"(Really?) I nodded. Tears started to roll down his face but he was smiling, he turned around and hugged me.

"Dankeschön..."(Thank you very much...)
I smiled and hugged him back I look up from his shoulder towards Berthold's bed and signed him to join. He sighed tiredly but still get up and joined us in the hug.

"Du lächelst, Berthold."(you're smiling Berthold)

"Den Mund halten." (Shut up.)

I snickered, they are really good friends with eachother. I thought back to what Christoph just admit. We know about me. The German Empire knows about me! I'm freaking out in the inside! But there's something weird, did he just send Christoph back to his room when he told him everything about me? Like, 'oh thanks for the info, you can go to sleep now'?

"Did he said anything after you told him about me?" I asked to Christoph. He seemed to think for a moment.

"Er schickte mich zurück in mein Zimmer, aber ich sah, dass er in Gedanken versunken war."(He sent me back to my room but I could tell he was deep in thoughts.) He looked at me in the eyes.

"Es ist sehr wahrscheinlich dass er Sie um ein Treffen bittet."(It is very likely that he will ask you to meet.) I nodded, it's logical, he thinks about the situation and after he meets me to talk about... A few things? I don't know.

"I just hope he won't do anything to me." I mumbled to myself but the others heard it.

"Mach dir keine Sorgen, er ist sehr respektvoll gegenüber denen, die inh interessieren."(Don't worry, he is very respectful of those who interest him.)

"Should I be reassured that he is interested in me or not?" They laughed.

"Ich weiß nicht!"(I don't know!)
I joined in the laugh too, at least if I am nervous or scared I have friends to rely on.

But would they always be there?
