The next day the nations were sitting in the meeting room looking at the Journal with dread. Matthew looked at the book like it was mocking him. The Canadian sat next to Lukas and next to Russia. After the incident yesterday with the Canadian running out of the meeting and having the others chase after him..... It was a way of showing protection towards the blond.

"Okay. Now that everyone is here let's begin!" Ludwig said.

Emil was passed the book by Lukas and he sighed and cleared his throat.

Dear diary,

Today England came back to visit me again!! He's been gone for soo~ long!!! I really missed 'im! I told him about my friend Davie!!! I also asked if he knew where this flower was cause Davie wanted to see it and I promised that I'll show him it! Well that's all England is calling for me... Tonight is roast- somethin'..... whatever that is!

-America your hero!

Alfred looked at Arthur with a sad look in his eyes since he didn't tell him what happened to his only friend. Matthew looked at his brother and saw a sad look and remembered why. Alfred wasn't that good at hiding anything from him, Matthew knows that his brother was hiding things from him but he knew about Davie.

"Alfred-" Arthur started but Alfred just waved him off.

"Continue please." The American said.

Emil nodded and looked at the next reading and looked at the blond with pity.

Alfred never understood why human lives were more frail and shorter then nations. Since Arthur was rarely  there to answer these questions, Alfred started to build walls around his heart so it doesn't break again.

Lovino, who was sitting next to the American, pulled him into a one arm hug while glaring at the other nations. Alfred was thankful and saw some heart felt smiles sent his way, he now knew that he wasn't the only one in that boat.

Dear diary,

I went to see Davie after a few years, stupid England didn't leave me another book to write in, so I'll recap on what you had missed.

I have been visiting Davie as I was looking for the flower to give Davie. But each time I see him he looks older! He doesn't remember me either! I want to ask my big brother but he isn't here and when he finally does come I forgot to ask before he left!

Now to today! Big brother had given me the flowers and I was very happy and excited to give them to Davie. When I found Davie... there was a kid who looked like Davie but he wasn't him. Davie was in this bed with flowers surrounding him, he looked like he was sleeping but went I tried to give the flowers to him... he didn't wake up... The kid said that Davie was dead... I don't know... I think he is sleeping... but I could ask Big brother when he comes home....
-America your hero!

Everyone looked at the teary eyed American who was now holding onto Lovino like he would die like Davie did. Arthur remembered telling him about the flowers and how excited he was. He wanted to go over and comfort him but half of the world glared at him while others looked at the table and shed silent tears.

"One more then Matthias can read." Emil said.

There were nods of agreement and Emil cleared his throat and begun.

Alfred suffers from low self-esteem from all the names that he has been called. It had started after his Independents when Arthur would shout insults at him.

Everyone looked as Alfred before glaring at the British nation, who's eyebrows twitched.

"You all can't just blame me! You all called Alfred names as well!" Arthur snapped.

He walked around the table of nations and stopped in front of Alfred and Lovino and knelt down. Arthur placed a gentle hand on Alfred's shoulder and sighed softly.

"Alfred.... Lad... I know that a simple apology won't make up for what I have said in the past but I want you to know that I still see you as my little brother and that... I was scared to let you go... scared that you wouldn't see me as a brother. I know that I can be a bit possessive at times but that was because of my brothers and them tormenting me when I was younger." Arthur slowly explained, the others rolling their eyes.

Matthew silently watched at his ex-father sucking up his pride and apologising to Alfred. The Canadian smiled as he saw Alfred shift a bit in his spot, showing that he was listening.

"I... I never had a loving family and when I raised you I was happy but when you declared war I was so confused as to why.... I know I have been hard on you but... I didn't really know how to show my love for you and I know it is bad leaving you all alone in your land.... that is my fault. But all those insults that I had said... I didn't really mean them...." Arthur pause but before anyone could speak Arthur continued.

"That is who my brothers got me to stay with them.... they insulted me.... I'm sorry Alfie. I love you very much, even if you don't see me as your brother anymore.... your still my brother no matter what."

Everyone was quiet, Francis glared at the English nation. There were sounds of sniffling and they all watched as Alfred let go of Lovino and pulled Arthur into a hug. Arthur smiled as he hugged back rubbing Alfred's back gently.

Matthew smiled before frowning. When Arthur was talking he never mentioned 'when I raised you and Matthew' he forgot the Canadian again. Matthew didn't let the hurt show, he just sat there looking emotionless.

When they released Arthur told Alfred that he wanted to talk when the break comes and walked back to his seat. Emil passed the book on and Matthias cleared his throat and started to read.

Dear diary,

I hate this blasted war. I don't know how that Frog got into this mess but I still blame him and now I and the rest of the other Allies have to have his butt from Germany.
I have seen Matthew helping out and I am very proud of him I know that he is willing to help.... I'm not sure if he is just helping for his 'Papa' or something. I just hope that when this war is over we all can go out for tea... maybe Alfred would like to join us... if he doesn't still hate me that is.
-England

"Even if I didn't have my full Independents then... but I joined to help both you and Papa." Matthew said softly and Arthur nodded, a small smile played on his lips.

"Next one mon ami." Francis said, looking bored a look.

Arthur, along with his brothers, knows how to cook but he gets nervous when cooking for others except for Alfred and Matthew. How do you think they survived when he cooks?

The nations looked shocked while Arthur smirked lightly but then frowned as the countless times he had been told that his food sucks or that he was banned from the kitchen. But he was the one, along with his brothers help, taught the twins to cook and bake.

"Pfft! That is a lie! The Black sheep can't cook and he probably tried to destroy their taste buds!" Francis said.

Matthew looked at his Papa with a frown and then at Arthur, catching Alfred doing the same and they both nodded. Matthew my not forgive Arthur for somethings that he had done to him... but this is one of the things that he always rants about when they have tea. Arthur hates it when Francis insults his cooking and the same with the others but they aren't as bad as Francis.

Matthew stood up causing Ivan and Lukas to look at him, Matthew smiled before walking over to a laughing French frog and pulled his chair out so he could face him and smacked him. A red hand print was left across his right cheek.

Alfred walked over to Arthur and glared at Francis. The other nations were shocked by this, never had they ever seen Matthew, sweet polite CANADA, smack anyone outside of Hockey.... Heck! He never smacked anyone period!

"Francis you have no right to say that about Arthur. He was the one to teach me and Alfred to cook. All I could cook after you lost me was Crepes and Arthur taught me to cook more then one item of food. So I dare you to say that he can't cook cause you would be insulting Al's and I's uncles and us as well." Matthew said, anger clear in his voice.

Francis blinked before glaring at Matthew and stood up. Stepping towards the Canadian, growling a bit.

"Je sais que l'Angleterre ne sait pas cuisiner. Je suis peut-être ton père, mais tu es toujours un garçon stupide. Un échec Matthieu, un échec. Vous et votre frère tous les deux."(I know that England can't cook. I may be your father, but you are still a stupid boy. A failure Matthieu, a failure. You and your brother both.) Francis spat.

Matthew froze and tears welled in his eyes and lowered his head a bit.

"*Alfie.... You have five seconds to hold me back before I try and kill that French Frog..*" Matthew said in a calm tone.

Alfred jumped over the table and grabbed Matthew, who was about to tackle Francis. Ivan and the rest of the counties gawked at this for a moment before rushing over.

"FRANCIS YOU HOSER!!! YOU A A TERRIBLE FATHER!!" Matthew screamed.

Matthew screamed louder then his whisper shouts and voice. Alfred and Arthur knew that Matthew was ticked off beyond belief, Francis must have said something to set him off.

"I AM NOT STUPID NOR A FAILURE!!! NOR IS MY BROTHER!!! YOU HOSER!! LET ME GO SO I CAN KILL THAT BLOODY FRENCHIE LYING SON OF A GUN!!!!" Matthew shouted.

Alfred and Arthur looked at Francis, glares aimed at him, while the other nations looked at the French nation like he walked in declaring that he wanted to be mobbed by three nations, who are ticked off.

"France..... we can't help you if they want to kill you." Gilbert said, with zero pity towards his friend.

With that Francis ran out of the room and Alfred, Arthur and Matthew all ran out with the craving for French blood. The other nations stood there for a moment before shouting together.

"WHAT THE HECK!"

=

And that is that!

Matthew, Alfred and Arthur really want to kill Francis while the others are confuse about it. Some ACE bounding time as they try to destroy the F in the Face family :)
