Hello again! First of all I'd like to thank all of you for your reviews! I'm really happy with how this story is turning out even if I only have a few chapters. On to another order of business, I'd like to thank onyx lacrymosa for your idea for this chapter. And just so you know I am very grateful and I hope it turns out the way you wanted it to. I don't own anything but this story ok here we go!

"So Italy what do you want to do today" the tall German man asked after he had finished his breakfast.

"Hmm…can we go for a walk in the park?" Italy suggested happily. "Oh! And maybe we can play soccer and have a picnic too!" he quickly added bouncing up and down on the couch.

"That's a great idea Feli I'll go get the picnic basket and other things we may need how about you prepare the food?" Germany asked as a rare smile spread across his usually stern face.

"Ok!" Italy agreed happily. He then placed a quick kiss on Germany's cheek and slipped off to the kitchen.

Ludwig got off the couch as well and returned to the basement to retrieve the picnic basket, grabbing the soccer ball on the way.

Feliciano was busy in the kitchen preparing yummy sandwiches and pasta salad for their picnic. He made just enough for the two of them but made sure to add a little extra bread for the ducks.

Italy silently reminisced at the last time he and Germany went to the park on a picnic of just in general.

It had been almost five months since he and Germany went anywhere together on a date. He sighed and placed his head in his palm.

He really missed him

"Italy! Is the food ready? Do you need any help?" called Germany as he rounded the corner carrying a Frisbee and some other items.

"The food is ready I just need to pack it then we can go!" Italy said grabbing the basket and throwing things inside.

"Wow, Doitsu! The park looks so pretty today!" Feliciano shouted as he skipped down the path

"y-yeah, it's a perfect day for a picnic" Germany agreed as he caught up t Italy to hold his out stretched hand

"Oh, look that looks like a perfect spot over there!" Italy said pointing and pulling Germany along.

The two sat on a wooden bench not four yards away from the water. The birds chirped as they flew over head and the ducks quacked and waddled up onto the shore.

Italy sighed contempt and rested his head on his lovers' broad shoulder. "I love you Germany" Italy murmured as he snuggled into the tall nation.

"i-i love you to Italia" Germany replied back resting an arm around the fragile Feliciano

QUACK!

Germany and Italy both jumped at the sound. "Heh heh hello ducky!" Italy said bending over to get a closer look at the little duck that had somehow made that very loud sound.

"Germany, I think he's hungry can we feed him some bread?" Italy asked innocently "yeah sure" Germany said plainly reaching for the basket.

"Here ducky, ducky" Italy called waving a little bread in the air. He sat on the ground and shifted so he knees were under him.

Quack! The duck moved toward Italy and took the bread in its beak. Italy sighed as the duck waddled off and gave the bread to its babies.

"Doitsu don't you wish we had babies?" Italy said dreamily still gazing at the little scene playing out in front of him.

"u-uh w-well" Germany stuttered "y-yeah I guess s-so". "I think you would make a good daddy Germany" Italy sighed looking up into the sky.

"T-thanks. And you would make a good daddy to" Germany said getting off the bench to sit beside Feli.

"Ha ha no silly, I would be the mommy!" Italy said turning so that he was in front of Germany.

"r-right" Germany said blushing.

Suddenly Italy spoke "hey Germany, can we go for a walk before we eat?"

"Sure Feli whatever you want" Germany said almost automatically. As if a switch that hadn't been turned on for years is suddenly flipped.

It felt natural

These feelings of being with Italy made him think to himself how lucky he actually was.

Without Italy Germany knew he was nothing but a stern grumpy man.

Yet with Italy he seemed to be this lively happy person looking at the best in life.

He liked it better when he was that man. The one with Italy.

And that is why he never wanted to lose him

"Doitsu! Doitsu! Catch me if you can!" Italy yelled as he took off down the path. "Heh heh" mumbled Germany as he got off the ground.

"That boy never runs out of energy" Germany said to himself. He glanced down the path before chasing after his beloved Italy.

Italy may be fast when he is being chased by an enemy, but not now. Germany easily caught up with him and was about to snatch him up in an affectionate hug when Italy turned to see Germany on his tail.

"Ahh! Ha ha!" Italy cried as he sped up.

Germany sighed as Italy swerved off the path and into the woods. "Oh Italy" Germany said to himself rolling his eyes and taking off into the woods after Feliciano.

Germany saw Italy running towards a clearing and figured that was the best place to catch him. Full speed ahead Germany thought as he raced to the clearing.

Italy was almost a good yard away from Germany when all of a sudden he was captured by two strong.

"NO!" Italy cried out as he tried to run out of Germany's arms. Soon he was air born. Yet he kept running in the air until Germany spun him around.

"Got yeah" he said before planting a passionate kiss on Italy's waiting lips.

This is what love is Germany thought

This is what it feels like to have someone special.

I want it to stay like this forever

Some things never die

One of those things is love

I will have Italy forever

That is, if he lets me

Yaay sorry it was so short but I was really distracted so yeah. I hope you liked it and I think I may give you a sneak peak at the next chapter. Ok so if you recall that scene with the ducks, well that conversation may just happen to make its way into the next chapter. Who knows? So review please and tell me what you think, even if it's bad!
