(Y/N) Pov:

When you finally went back to your room, tiredness immediately took over so you just jumped on the bed, not bothering to pull up the covers.

You fell asleep instantly. You didn't think that the clothes would be this comfortable! You smiled in your sleep, and drowned yourself in your pillow.

You had the feeling that this night would be nice.

~•~

-"(Y/NNNNN)!!!" You jumped and fell off of the bed. You glared at your friend who was the one waking you up.

-"What the hell is wrong with you!?" You yelled, angry to be awakened from your peaceful dream.

-"It's almost noon! And I got the notice that British Empire wanted us to eat with him! And what are these clothes!?" You got lost a bit with all their rambling. Ignoring the question you immediately stood up.

-"What?! Oh my god, how do you know that?"

-"I woke up a long time ago when the ship started moving, I'm wondering how you didn't notice." They answered. You realised that the ship was indeed sailing to its destination.

-"Ok... But going back to what you said, are you serious!? Do I look bad? I have nothing to fix myself!" You exclaimed, they shrugged.

-"You look fine, and even if you don't, I'm sure they don't care."

-"(B/F/N), they're royalty, of course they'd care about our appearance!"

-"They can judge me, I don't care."

-"Well I do!" You grumbled. They seemed to think about it before grinning.

-"Do you want to annoy him?" You raised an eyebrow and hummed, they continued.

-"What if we didn't go and instead hide somewhere else?" They suggested.

-"(B/F/N)! That's completely irresponsible and a lack of respect towards him!" You reprimanded them, they just smirked.

-"And?"

-"And fuck it I'm in!" You exclaimed. (B/F/N)) laughed.

-"I know you were gonna say this, now let's be discreet!" You both walked silently to the door and opened it slowly. You put your head out and looked both ways.

-"We can go, no one's here!" You whisper-yelled and got out of the room, (B/F/N) behind you. You both shared a glance before smiling.

-"Okay, so the ship is pretty big but we still have to avoid his cabin before we get noticed." You told them. They nodded and ran out on the deck.

-"Try to catch me!!!!" They yelled, you sweatdropped, much for discretion. But you ended up giving in and chased them while laughing at their antics. The crewmen looked at you weirdly but didn't say anything.

You both ran off the deck, you could feel the wind hit your face and hear the water hit the sides of the ship. You closed your eyes for a while, just to feel the peace of the moment.

Remember: running with your eyes closed is a pretty bad idea.

You tripped over something. You opened your eyes in surprise and just looked while the floor quickly approached your face.

You braced yourself for the impact but it never came. You let out a 'huh' and looked up, here was Thirteen Colonies who was looking at you with worried eyes. Were you okay? Fortunately he caught you on time, what if you hit the ground and injured yourself?! You have to become more careful or he has to stay by your side all the time!

Meanwhile you were surprised he could catch you, You mean, he's stronger than he looks! From the corner of your eyes, you saw (B/F/N) walking up to you.

-"Ah, uh. Thank you 13 for catching me." You smiled awkwardly, waiting for him to let you go. He didn't.

-"Uhm, can you... Let me go now? I mean, I'm quite uncomfortable like this..." He blinked.

-"Oh, of course!" He said, letting you stand up but still managed to keep physical contact with you.

He looked over at (B/F/N) who had arrived then back at you.

-"Why aren't you with the British Empire?" He asked.

-"We could ask the same to you, weren't you supposed to be here too?" (B/F/N) replied and he had no choice but to answer.

-"I didn't want to be with him, even though I would have loved to eat with you, I couldn't brace myself to be near him." 'Not after what happened yesterday." He wanted to say. You hummed.

-"Well it's only fair if we say our reasons too." You said.

-"We didn't want to do it either, well (Y/N) was bothered since they just woke up and I didn't care since he just ignored me since we met." (B/F/N) explained. Thirteen Colonies was listening but he couldn't help but feel slightly annoyed by their presence. He just wanted to spend time with you alone, not with them too. To be honest he could understand why his father ignored them.

-"I see... So, since none of us want to go, what about just spending time together?" He suggested, looking at you with a smile, you returned it.

-"That's the least I can do to thank you, if you weren't there I would have fallen on my face."

-"That would have been quite hilarious." Added your best friend. But her teasing smirk didn't last long when she was met by Thirteen Colonies's cold glare. Since he was still at your side you couldn't really see his face. You just sighed while putting your hand to your forehead.

-"That's not very nice (B/F/N)..." You mumbled.

-"S-Sorry, I didn't want to upset you..." You raised an eyebrow and looked at them. That wasn't them to apologize for a remark like this. Your confused state only grew once you saw them sweating and fiddling their fingers, clearly distressed.

But their fearful eyes weren't looking at you. You followed their gaze to look at your side, to see Thirteen Colonies glaring at them, that wasn't a regular glare, he really looked like he was going to murder them.

-"So!" You clasped your hands together, trying to change the subject and by that, changing the mood too. That's what made (B/F/N) look at you with thankful eyes.

-"Where do we go?" You asked 13 Colonies, you thought it would be better if you didn't mention what just happened.

-"We're on a ship, it's not like there were a lot of different places." He said, looking at you blankly.

-"Did you see the size of this ship!? It's enormous!" You exclaimed, arms open. He smiled lightly at your joyful demeanour even if it was about one of his father's possession.

-"Well, I think I'm gonna go..." You turned towards (B/F/N), they weren't comfortable at all with spending their time with Thirteen Colonies. You nodded in understanding.

-"Okay, but are you okay with being alone?" They shrugged a bit.

-"I'll find someone to hang out with, don't worry." They reassured you.

-"Yeah go find your boyfriend." You teased. They hit you playfully on the arm with a smile.

-"Shut up." They said before walking off. You looked at them leaving for a few seconds before Thirteen Colonies grabbed your arm and pulled you with him. He grinned at you.

-"Now that they left, let me show you a special place!" He exclaimed and you facepalmed. 'Wasn't he the one that said there were not a lot of places here?'

He grabbed you and ran the side of the ship. A few times he threw a glance behind him to look at you. Each time he would turn back with a red face. You looked so beautiful with your hair flying to the wind and with your smiling face. Your hand fitted perfectly in his and your laugh was like a wonderful symphony to his ears.

He focused back on where he was going. Surely you didn't mind him right? You didn't dislike him since you were willing to spend time with him. Maybe he had a chance to get you.

He frowned. But... You still saw him like a child, he could feel it. You didn't act towards him like he was a grown man and it was really itching him. Why was he still a child? He's 200 years old! Some countries at 10 years old are already full adults, it's unfair! What did he need to do to be an adult?

However, he didn't question it more since he saw both of you were at destination.

-"Here we are!" He finally said. You looked around, it was just an empty space, behind the others parts of the ship. You were on the border so you could still see the sea.

-"It's not a beautiful place or anything, it's just... A hideout for me. Sometimes I go there to be alone, British Empire wouldn't dare to dirty his clothes just to get there." He snickered, you just stayed silent. You were still admiring the view, it was beautiful.

-"So uh... Do you want to... Stay here? For a while?" He asked, blushing a bit. You smiled.

-"Why not?" He seemed to light up at your words even more. He sat down and indicated you to do the same. Then you both started talking of everything and anything. He was never so happy in his entire life.

You looked at him rambling about a thing he and New France did once to annoy their parents and you chuckled seeing his entouthiasm.

-"...And even at this day, he still don't know it's me!" He laughed before looking at you. You were laughing too. You were happy, he made you happy, and he promised himself to do everything he could to make you feel good. He sighed dreamily while scrutinizing you with a loving look. He felt himself getting weaker and weaker only by standing below your gaze.

You had stopped laughing for a while now and just admired the beauty of the ocean. The waves kept hitting against the ship making jets of water going to the sky, letting you see some rainbows through its reflects.

But you soon felt a pressure on your shoulder. You looked down to see Thirteen Colonies sleeping peacefully on your side, his lips parted a little. You smiled fondly from the cuteness and moved him a bit so he was more comfortable.

You closed your eyes and just rested from the sounds of the waves. You thought that you were fully awake but this situation made you sleepy and soon you fell into a deep slumber.

Somehow, Thirteen Colonies was still aware of what happened outside of his sleep, and when he realised that you were now sleeping with him, he grinned in his sleep. He was in heaven.

Meanwhile, (B/F/N) was spending time with their favourite crew mate while the British Empire was still waiting for at least one of you, now completely disappointed.

~•~

(CLASH!!)

You woke up with a start as the ship was shaking. Out of surprise you lose your balance and fell completely on the poor Colonies.

-"What's happening!?" You gripped his clothes like your life was depending on it while he was still trying to comprehend something. Even if he didn't understand what was happening, he was more thinking about the fact that you fell on him, not like it bothered him to have you on top of him.

You looked around, panicking, your first thought was that somehow the ship was sinking. That thought in fact disappeared when you saw that you were right on the shore. You blinked.

-"It seems like we have arrived." You heard a voice say from below you. You looked down just to see Thirteen Colonies wiping his forehead.

You flushed red in embarrassment and got off him immediately.

-"I'm so sorry!!" You apologized standing up.

-"That's fine! ....I didn't mind it." He whispered to himself but you still heard it. You looked at him with conflicted feelings, mostly embarassment but with still a bit of disgust.

-"ANYWAYS, we already arrived! That's so soon!" You exclaimed. Did you just did America-Europe in such a short gap of time?

-"Well, you slept most of the trip to be honest." Said Thirteen Colonies, standing up too.

-"Eh!" You grumbled. He looked around, ignoring you.

-"I think we should go, or the British Empire will be even more pissed than he is." He said before looking at you. You nodded in understanding.

-"Yes, I don't want him to kill me because I didn't attend to his dinner." You joked. He laughed mockingly.

-"Oh, how I wished to be there so I could have seen his face!"

-"Does that mean you didn't wish to be with me?" You asked, faking to be offended. He freaked out.

-"No! No, of course not! I loved being with you! It was really-"

-"Okay! I got it!" You stopped him, didn't want him to fantasize about you. What was wrong with him?

-"Let's go now!" You said, walking off.

-"It's actually the other way unless you want to walk around the whole ship to get here." He added.

-"Well show me the way then!" You pouted. He took your hand.

-"I'll do more than that~" he said before running off. You cringed at this.

You had finally reached the deck. The British Empire was here and you could see he was very stressed. When he saw you, his whole face lightened up but it immediately went down when he noticed Thirteen Colonies holding your hand.

You noticed it too and let go, wiping your hand on your clothes. However your time alone didn't last long when two arms engulfed you into a embrace.

-"Oh my goodness, darling are you okay?? I was worried sick seeing you wouldn't come to the dinner, I've waited you for so long! Now I see that you were with Thirteen Colonies! Are you sure you okay? He didn't do anything to you right? If he did tell me immediately, I'll make him pay. You're a mess! Let's get someone to help you! If you want I can do it, it doesn't bother me one bit, just tell me that you're fine with it okay?"

His whole rambling was hurting your head and the way his arms tightened around didn't help one bit.

-"I... I'm" Seeing that you were trying to speak he immediately stopped talking.

-"What is it? What's wrong my dear?" He asked, concern in his eyes.

-"I can't breathe... Let me go..." You succeeded in uttering those words to which he realised he was hugging you too tight for your liking. He let go immediately and you took deep breaths.

-"Oh thank god!" You exclaimed, breathing heavily, British Empire felt guilty but once he saw Thirteen Colonies's face he hid it instantly.

-"What were you doing with them Thirteen Colonies?" He asked sternly.

-"Nothing much, why? I don't need your permission to hang out with them." Thirteen Colonies glared. They were now glaring at each other and you could almost see the flash of lighting between them. You just used this moment to silently walk off. 'Where is (B/F/N)? I can't deal with them bickering all the time.' however, you couldn't go further because the British Empire noticed you try to go away. He broke the staring contest he had with his 'son' and went over to you. He took hold of your arm and walked off of the ship.

-"Wait, Wait! Where do you bring me?!" You yelled, he turned towards you. You were really the only one he couldn't get mad at.

-"We are now in the United Kingdom so we're going to my palace dear, I want to present you to my capital." He said. 'Oh god'

Thirteen Colonies watched them go. He didn't like it one bit. But... He couldn't do anything... For now.

He turned around. He knew why you were walking off. You wanted to find your 'best friend'. Well, he was going to find them.

He needed to tell them a few things.
