011-[Action] Getting so tired of this...

[tuna_surprise]

[Things have been tough on Seychelles lately. First there was a boatload of drama involving England, then her not!dad the Mayor of Townsville got droned. And now France is gone too. She doesn't know how much more of this she can take. But she also knows that everyone here has the same problems, so its not even really fair to complain about them.

[Loves the water, swimming, blah blah. So he's often coming here if he finds he can't sleep. Also he's always liked to stay out ridiculously late to troll China and England.

...Hey, isn't that Taiwan's friend?

The one he should remember better because they were both British colonies, but doesn't because apparently nobody does unless you get shipwrecked at her house.

Anywhoo, he's watching curiously. Mostly because he considers himself a good swimmer and Seychelles, as another watery/coastal/island nation, looks like she might be competition.]

[tuna_surprise]

[She's been swimming for a long time now, and finally comes up for air. Clinging to the edge of the pool with her back turned towards him, it sounds as if she's gasping for air. Or is that sobbing? It's hard to tell from this angle.]

[scentofbauhinia]

[He hears it and slowly makes his over.]

Seychelles?

[And he's kneeling down in front of her]

...Are you crying?

Backtagging like whoa....

[tuna_surprise]

[She gasps and looks up, horrified. Then hastily turns away and wipes at the tears.]

N-no! I- I'm fine....

no worries~.

[scentofbauhinia]

You don't look fine to me.

...What's wrong? Did England say something stupid?

[tuna_surprise]

It's not him... Not this time.

It- It's nothing, really.

[scentofbauhinia]

...Is it France?

[tuna_surprise]

........

[She doesn't say anything, but the fresh tears probably tell him that he's hit the mark.]

[scentofbauhinia]

[Oh dear.

Leaning over the side to hold his hand out to her.]

...Come on. You'll catch a cold if you stay in there too long.

[tuna_surprise]

[Reaches up and takes his hand. Allows herself to be helped out of the pool.]

I never got to tell him. I never got to say what I really wanted...

[scentofbauhinia]

...What did you want?

[He's spotted a dry towel off to the side and has grabbed it to put it round her shoulders.]

[tuna_surprise]

I just- I wanted him to know how much I love him.

I'd give anything for a chance to be with him again...

[scentofbauhinia]

[Not so good with the lovey stuff. So just gonna put a hand on her shoulder in an effort to be comforting. He's already had this from Taiwan over Japan though.]

He might come back. Like Taiwan did.

[tuna_surprise]

That's true....

I really hate myself for hesitating though. If I hadn't been so scared of what he'd say, if I'd been brave enough to tell him..... I should have said something when I had the chance.

[scentofbauhinia]

...You'll get another chance. And I doubt you'll have anything to lose if you do tell him. France is a pretty understanding guy. You shouldn't be afraid to just say it.

[So says Mr.Blunt here. And France is also a complete perv but hey, we won't mention that this time.]

Why don't you go change and I'll walk you home? I should be getting back too anyway.
