we're awake!
It didn't take long till you heard the first noises out of the dormitory. You put away your novel and went there. You looked around to figure out, who woke up. Shocked you noticed that one of the beds was empty. You started searching and smiled when you found Feli laying next to his brother. //Perhaps he had a nightmare or he felt alone. // you thought and covered them again. Then you heard a silent whimper and turned around again. After a moment you realized it came from Ivan, who tried panic-stricken to escape Belarus "death-lock-hug". You rolled with your eyes and walked over to them. Natalia still slept deep, but Russia seemed to be wide awake and really scared. With his big violet eyes he stared at you and whispered lightly "Help me." With a small grin across your face you gently untie Belarus arms. Then you picked her up carefully, you didn't want to wake her up and placed her in her own bed again. Ivan breathed in relief and slowly relaxed again. You went to him and petted his platinum blonde hair. "She didn't want to hurt you. She just likes you really much and wants to be in your near." You tried to explain his sister's behaviour. "But she's so scary." replied and shivered a little bit. "Yes she is." you admitted "But she's a member of your family and you're her big brother, so you have to take care of her. You have to protect her and hug her, when she's sad. That's what big brothers should do." you explained him. He thought about it a few moments then he nodded and yawed. "Continue your nap sunflower." you covered him lovingly again and watched him falling asleep again. You wanted to leave the room, when a small silent cry permeate to your ears, it came from Germany. He sat up in his bed and watched around with tears filling up his eyes. Fast you went to him and lifted him up. Fondly you shushed him and asked "What's wrong Luddy?" He clinched at your clothes and gasped "I had a nightmare [y/n]." "Shsh it was just a dream." you continued calming him down. "I dreamed Gilbert forgets about me and doesn't pick me up. And then I was alone and... and..." instead of finishing the sentence he began to cry unreservedly. You rubbed his back smoothly "Prussia would never forget about you. He's your big brother and sure he messes around a lot, but you're his one and all." He looked you in the [e/c] eyes and you whipped away his tears. "Are you sure?" he asked uncertain. "Of course I am. He loves you Luddy!" you secured him. He nodded and calmed down completely. Carefully you put him down in his bed again. "You should rest a little bit more Germany. Or you will be tired when it's time to play again." He nodded and laid down, you covered him with the blanket and left the room again. //They are really exhausting, but they are so sweet too! // you thought and looked at the clock. Already 2 pm. //America and Germany will be picked up soon. I will wake them up in a half an hour. I'm glad that Alfred isn't so exhausting like he usually is. Perhaps Arthur's parents works now. Ludwig is a really gentle kid. He isn't too loud, he loves order and knows discipline. I'm sure that's not because of Gilberts parenting.// You went to your office and drank a cup of tea. Then you noticed that Grandpa Rome haven't told you, when he'd come and pick the Italian-brothers up. You sighed annoyed, it wouldn't matter if he had told you the time. He would be late anyway. 2:30 pm you walked to the dormitory again and poked Alfred fondly "It's time to wake up little hero." you whispered and he started to open his eyes slowly. After he sat up and was rubbing his eyes, you went to the Italians. "Feli Romano, time to wake up." you said in a sing-sang-tone. You just earned grumping, so you poked them too. North Italy woke up first, he was in panic and clinched at his brother. Who awoke too and shoved away Feliciano and mumbled "Let me sleep idiota!" He was about to turn around and continue his nap, but you poked him again and said "No, you two have to stay up now." When he heard your voice he was wake immediately. You laughed a little bit and went to Germany, you tried to imitate Gilbert "Luddy aufwachen (wake up)!" Abruptly he was awake and looked around confused "Big brother?" he asked confused. You giggled and fixed his hairstyle. "No but in a few minutes he will be here." Disappointed Ludwig yawed and rubbed his eyes. In the next bed Canada was sleeping deep and peacefully, you smiled and tickled him lightly. He laughed and was wake directly. He rubbed his eyes and searched for his glasses. You handed them to him and turned around. "Alfred where are your glasses?" you asked, you noticed that he hadn't worn it the whole day. "I forgot them at home." he answered with still a sleepy voice. You sighed and rolled your eyes. He was such a mixed-up kid. The Italy brothers started to fix the hairstyle from each other. You laughed you were never allowed to touch their hair or their curls. But sometimes you did it though, just to tease them. Alfred was full of energy again and jumped out of his bed. You went to Natalia and smiled when you saw her tousled hair. You woke her up carefully "Belarus, please wake up." she opened her eyes and noticed that you separated her form Ivan again. She glared at you angrily, but you just grinned. At last you woke Russia, it took a little while, his sleep was really deep, but then he finally opened his eyes. "Good morning." you said and fixed his scarf. He didn't replied, just rubbed his eyes, and yawed. You heard a loud "eeek" and turned around fast. You saw Natalia in front of the mirror. Shocked she looked at her hairstyle. "Would you like me to make you a new ponytail?" you asked and kneeled down behind her. She nodded and you began to weave her hair and made a new ponytail. When you were ready, she was content again. She mumbled a short "Thank you." and ran to Ivan. At first he wanted to freak out, but then he remembered your conversation before and let Natalia hug him. You could see that it was still a torture for him, but was happy. When everyone had his energy back, you leaded them to the common room again. "Ludwig, Alfred please get ready, your brothers will be here in 10 minutes." you ordered. Alfred made a dissatisfied moan and got his rucksack. Ludwig just nodded, sure he liked the time here in the daycare. But he learned not to contradict. So he just did, what you said. Then you went with them to the wardrobe and got them ready. The rest of the kids started to search for an employment.
