31. Flowers
Russia likes flowers, especially sunflowers but he smells of chamomile, snow and smoke in the middle of other scents, America likes it, even if his flowes is the Rose, even if Russia gives him flowers like he is a girl, he is no girl, but on truth he likes them so he mock him giving to him sunflowers, well not mocking if the other loves and hugs you almost to death, but is a nice gesture…
When they meet and were close friends, after America gain his independence Russia loved the fields of flowers of his country, they used to walk there, America would laugh and mock Russia of the way he blushed and cheerfully ran to the fields, needless to say he did the same, sometimes he would show America some flower meanings and he would smile and ask if he ever received the most meaningful, he would deny sadly, he received gifts, he had lovers and he even received flowers but not meaningful flowers or not with that propose, once America gave him a dark pink, gratitude and appreciation being his meaning, Russia quietly blushed and kissed his cheek, now was he the one blushing.
On the Cold War he received a light pink thorn-less rose, it was not identified and America asked England the meaning, he said gratitude and love at first sight because of the missing thorns, he frowned not understanding who would give him such girls thing, when he realised Lithuania looking at him he talked to him but he said it was Russia, there’s no need to say he freaked out and destroyed said flower in front of said Russian that acted like nothing, he even seamt to not understand what was going on. The truth was that he was already loosing his mind and sent it when realised he was in war with one of the people he most cherished, or so Lithuania said, he also said he cried when he realised the was his flower, if because he was hurt or for some another reason no one knows but America still feels guilty.
When they become slight friends he saw Russia with a yellow tulip, tulips mean perfect love or so he was told and he frowned when saw Russia talking with China, not that he cared of course, he knew they were both buddies, special fucking friends and he started the meeting earlier, after all they were all there right? On the end of the meeting he was going to ask England and Canada to go eat something with him when he was stopped by said Russian, he gave him his Hollywood smile and was slight shocked when he gave him the yellow tulip, him, not China, him, America received a yellow tulip, he didn’t know for sure but he couldn’t care less, he smiled fondly and thanked him. Russia walked to Lithuania, with intention of making him cry for sure and he went to England and Canada that were waiting for him and raised eyebrows to the tulip.
”Who gave you that?” England said with a slight frown on his bushy eyebrows and one of then raised
”Doesn’t mater… what means?”
”Hopeless love, I hope you are not braking hearts lad! I thought you better than that!”
”But cher you always brake my coeur…” France said casually placing a dramatic hand on his heart
”When did you get here? and Why are you putting your frog nose in the conversation!?” he yelled
”A few seconds, is our young Amerique breaking hearts? Amerique? Are you okay?”
America couldn’t breath properly, he slide down the wall laughing, Russia didn’t hate him, he didn’t, and he liked him, he loved him! He couldn’t be more happy
”Hum… I think if you are so freaked out you should tell the person you like her too…” Canada knelled on his side
”No way bro! I’ll give him flowers! Fucking flowers too! I’ll give him a fucking ambrosia and a sunflower of course! he will love it! ah! he will love… I … ur.. I’ll go! see ya bro!” with that he was running on the hall like one idiot, one very happy idiot leaving behind ‘not so sure that America is sane’ people. Ambrosia means that the love is reciprocate and a sunflower just because he loves them.
When he gave him the two flowers Russia blushed and gave him a kiss on the cheek, was like a deja vu and he was sure the kiss was longer than needed but he didn’t mind, they would take it slow, step by step and he was sure it would work out just fine.
