"Look, Alfred... I know this is sudden but... I'm in love with you..." A sweat of intensity formed on my forehead as I stared at the eyes that stared back at me. "...gah! This will never work." I groaned as I sat in front of Kuma who was roleplaying as Alfred. "He's in love with Arthur so what can I do? It's not like he'll love me instantly.." My mind raced with many thoughts. "....who are you?" Kuma cocked his head to the side.

I facepalmed and sighed. "I'm Canada the one who feeds you, does that sound familiar now?" I asked in hope that Kuma would finally remember me. "...who?" he asked once again, I groaned and flopped on my belly. "I could really go for some pancakes right now but...I'd rather not ask papa to take me to the store." I shivered at the memory of him pouncing on me and trying to kiss me.

A knock on my door made me jump with fright. "Oh, maple not again!" I grabbed Kuma and held him in front of me like a shield as the door flew open slamming against the wall. "Matthieu it's snowing outside!" my papa yelled happily with a wide smile spread across his face. "Let's build a snowman together!" he pleaded like a little kid asking his mother for candy.

I sighed in defeat but smiled at the thought of running around in the snow how I used to when I was smaller. "Yeah..okay that sounds like fun." I slipped on my shoes and grabbed a thin jacket. "My little maple leaf, Angleterre and Alfred will be coming to visit again." His smile dropped to a frown

"I have to take Angleterre to an important meeting that's for older countries so I need you and Alfred to stay here." I froze when he finished his sentence in a glum tone. "It's okay papa....well what are you waiting for? Snow doesn't last forever you know." I pulled at his arm and dragged him outside where the snow quickly reached our knees.

I smiled mischievously when my papa was quietly working on a snowman he was building and grabbed a handful of snow. "Heads up papa!" I yelled and threw the clumped snow at my papa, he almost fell back when the snow hit the back of his head. "Matthieu!? You shouldn't have done that...now fear the wrath of a full Frenchman!" he grabbed a ton of snow and ran after me.

I ran away with Kuma snugged in my arms, I laughed when I saw my papa trip and landed face first on the snowy ground a burst of hysterical laughter boomed from behind me. "Dude that was hilarious!" Alfred said breathlessly. "Too much wine in the brain you frog?" Arthur asked with a chuckle. "Shut up you black sheep of Europe!" Papa said and stood up from the ground wiping away snow from his face and clothes.

Alfred wore his bomber jacket like he always does since he almost never takes it off unless he's at his home or a special occasion is up. "Well dudes don't you and Iggy have a meeting to go to?" Alfred asked my papa who was starting to argue with Arthur. "Oui...although I did enjoy playing in the snow with my little maple leaf." Papa muttered, "I don't want to go with the ugly frog." Arthur turned his back to papa crossing his arms.

I sighed and pushed them both toward Alfred's car since he was average and age appropriate to drive even though he drives like a maniac. "Can you guys at least pretend to like each other like how you used to do?" I pleaded as they entered the car in silent anger. "I really miss when we were all a family..." I murmured.

Their faces softened and their crowns were replaced with a look of sadness. "I'm sorry Matthieu.," Papa said and started the car. "....but we are no longer a happy family..." That was the last thing I heard from him before the car drove off and I was left standing in place in shock. "Mattie what's wrong bro!? Did your legs freeze?" he joked with a laugh.

I wiped away the tears that made their way out of my eyes and laughed along with Alfred. "Yea... I guess they did." I whispered, Kuma looked up at me with a worried look. "Don't cry Canada-kun! Everything's okay!" he nudged his head under my chin. I smiled and patted his head. "I'm fine Kuma really I am," I stated but was cut off when a hand landed on my shoulder. "Mattie hey what's wrong?" Alfred asked.

I smiled at him. "Nothing I'm just umm...hungry? Yeah, hungry!" I said quickly trying to shake any suspiciousness that ate at Alfred. "Well let's go inside to eat something!" he insisted and grabbed my wrist pulling me inside the house. "I bought some pancake mix because France had said something about you not feeling well and that there wasn't any pancake mix so I bought some for you bro," he explained as he burst inside and rushed to the kitchen.

We both soon began to make pancakes together and ate them in my room talking about the many things that happened in our lives. "Ya know...I think Arthur's the one for me." Alfred said dreamily. "O-oh you really think so?" my heart dropped causing pressure on my chest. "Yeah, he's the light in my life." He smiled to himself and rested his chin on the palms of his hands.

"I'm happy for you but... I-I need to confess something.." This was it I had to confess my feelings for Alfred no matter how hard it is. "I-I love.." My throat went dry and my tongue was in a knot. "I loved you more than a brother..." I finally managed to say, everything was in awkward silence as the air went heavy around us. "Matthew...please tell me this is a joke." He looked panicked.

I was completely taken aback by his response. "I'm sorry but I'm not joking... I really love you." My voice was much steadier but was slowly breaking. "I... I don't know what to say.." He stuttered. I "I understand if you don't feel the same I know you love Arthur I just needed to confess my love before things got worse," I exclaimed and covered my face with my hands.

"Wait,  Mattie..hear me out." I could feel the bed move as he shifted and moved closer to me. "No I don't want to," I said and quickly moved my arms to my ears blocking out any sound that was to come for me, the only noise that reached my ears was the muffled noises of Alfred's voice, I then gasped in surprise as I was quickly pinned against the bed and my arms were above my head.

"A-Alfred what are you doing!? Let me go!" I yelled and struggled to escape his grasps but he was somehow much stronger than me. "Wait, Mattie, you don't understand...this was all a trick, me dating Arthur it was a trick to get you jealous. I love you too Mattie I really do!" a wide smile was spread across his face.

By now tears filled my eyes. "You jerk...playing with my emotions like that," I said and looked away with a bright blush, I heard him chuckle as he wiped away a stray tear that trailed down my cheek. "I'm sorry Matthew..." He apologized with a glum tone. "I'll make it up to you." I could hear the smirk in his voice before I could move to properly look at him I felt a pair of lips on my neck.

"A-Alfred what are you doing!" I gasped in surprise and shock, he pulled away and looked at me. "I said I was going to make it up to you wasn't I?...now let's get these tight clothes off yes?" his hand trailed down my thigh causing me to blush and squeak. "I've been waiting so long for this.." He said in a mischievous tone, I suddenly felt his hand go down my pants...
