Sliding into the car, you buckled in and leaned back. Why did it have to be so hot? You felt lucky that just stepping outside didn't leave you with a sunburn.
     "Thanks for the save Elizabeta," You said, smiling, closing the door, as to not let that much nice cold air out.
     "No problem!" Elizabeta laughed. "Besides, shopping is fun! Wouldn't you say Lili?"
     "Yes, it is," Lili replied softly and gracefully. "Can we do it again sometime?"
     "We will definitely go shopping together again, but this time as a group!" Elizabeta smiled as well. "Oh, and we will be bringing Arthur as well~" Her smile turned into a smirk.
     "Alright," You agreed, and felt your cheeks heat up. You heard Alfred chuckle in the front seat.
     "Well hey, don't let him drive!" Alfred suggested enthusiastically.
     "Agreed," Elizabeta stated.
     "Why not?" Lili asked.
     "He doesn't know American rules," Alfred explained. "I don't think _____ does either. Do you?"
     "No, like why the hell do you drive on the right side on the road?!" You asked with enthusiasm.
     "The whole world does that besides England," Elizabeta quickly said, glancing out of the window.
     "Hello, I hope I didn't keep you all waiting long," Arthur sighed, putting his bags in the trunk and going into the copilot seat.
     "Not at all, bro!" Alfred exclaimed, and didn't wait for him to close the door before speeding off.
     "Slow down!" Arthur yelled, quickly shutting the door and fumbled with his seatbelt a bit before getting buckled in.
     "Never!" Alfred exclaimed joyfully, and sped onto the highway.
     "W-why are you going so fast?" Lili stuttered slightly, her face a bit pale.
     "You're supposed to go fast on the highway dudette!" Alfred cheered.

     It wasn't long before the car stopped in the driveway finally, and you were able to get up and stretch your legs. Grabbing your bags and walking to the front door, you absentmindedly walked yourself to your room and got changed into your bathing suit. You liked the way it looked on you.
     Heading to the living room, you wrapped your beach towel closer around you, suddenly feeling a tad awkward with everyone's eyes on you, not to mention the air conditioning made it a bit chilly.
     Before your eyes Alfred had ripped off his shirt and ran outside joyfully, and you heard a loud splash after a few moments. A few more people ran after him, laughter echoing around the house and disappearing as everyone had gotten outside and had stripped into their swimwear.
     Removing your beach towel and setting it aside, you jumped into the pool, feeling cool water embrace you from all angles, closing in on you until you felt your feet touch the pool floor. Squinting your eyes and looking up, you found yourself quite a distance from the surface, and you swam up, feeling the hot sun hit you like a baseball bat after a moment.
     You saw Arthur on what seemed to be a rubber duck pool tube, and he was drinking a cup of tea. Alfred caught your gaze and smirked, sneaking behind Arthur, placing his hands on the pool tube.
     Arthur rested his cup of tea on the pool's edge, when Alfred suddenly dunked Arthur- right onto you. He was flailing wildly before clinging to you.
     "You bloody twat you know I can't swim!!" Arthur exclaimed, and you felt your cheeks heating up, you were sure if you went under the water would boil.
     "Oh well, you have another floatie now!" Alfred laughed, you were sure your face was like a tomato by now. Getting to the shallow end, Arthur let go of you, his face appeared a bit red as well.
     "I'm so sorry about that ____, did I hurt you?" Arthur asked, his face going from anger and surprise to worry, his eyes had widened slightly, looking you up and down, and his eyebrows were raised.
     "I-it's alright, really," You stuttered, embarrassment filling you, and you got his floatie back for him. "You didn't hurt me."
     "Well that's a relief-"
     "Alright bros I got our party set up, everyone grab a weapon! We will have a 5 minute grace period before war!" Alfred enthusiastically explained. "Ready, set, go!!!"
     Everyone raced from the pool to grab a water weapon, which was spread out around the pool area. Grabbing a water pistol, you ran to fill it with water, and hid behind a tree. A moment later, grace period had ended, so you darted out of your hiding place, only to be splashed with a water balloon.
     Seeing the culprit, you aimed towards them, and got a head shot with a stream of water and raced away, thankful for the large water storage.
     Backing up against a wall, your eyes scanned the battlefield, you felt alert and awake, adrenaline rushing through your veins, excitement overflowing from you.
     "Would you like to team, or would you like to be wet?" You heard Arthur ask beside you, feeling something cold touch your neck.
     "Hmm, I'll have to go with the first one," You decided after a moment and turned your head slowly. "The water in that feels freezing."
     "I filled it with water from the cooler and ice, and good choice," Arthur said, removing his water weapon from you. You saw a certain Francis sneaking up behind Arthur.
     "BEHIND YOU!" You and Arthur both yelled in unison, soaking the people trying to ambush you.
     "Jeez why did you have to fill it with COLD water?!" Alfred complained.
     "Why not?" Arthur asked, a bit of Cockiness in his tone. "It's a better punishment."
     "Oh _____ you know I'll make you double this soaked i-"
     "Shut it frog!" Arthur yelled, cutting Francis off.
     "Is that jealousy I hear~?" Francis asked a bit too flirtingly. His French laughing made you feel slightly more uneasy.
     "I'LL AVENGE YOU FRANCIS!!" Gilbert shouted as he jumped down, a stream of cold water hitting your face.  Soon almost everyone was in the battlefield, and soon everyone was soaked with water.
     "Well that was fun!" You said cheerfully, sitting at the pool's edge. Your feet dipped into the cool water, and you smiled up at everyone.
     "Yeah! But a pool party isn't a pool party without the food!" Feliciano exclaimed. He and Alfred raced into the house, Feliciano falling on his face from running, but he got back up anyways and dashed in, a few more people following. You followed after them, and what you saw made your jaw drop to the floor.
