Secrets are never kept very well. Typically the truth comes out eventually. While almost all secrets come out in the end, some are actually meant to stay a secret.

Six years passing plus a one night stand plus a huge secret kept from all, but one means trouble. Especially if your name starts with Madeline and ends with Williams. Extra especially if you have a thing for people with accents and get drunk really easily, but this story's getting ahead of itself.

"Alfred, Fritz, I'm home!" Madeline called out to her dear older brother. She turned to hang up her coat when she was suddenly tackled by a light blonde blur. Madeline closed the door and laughed softly. She gently pat the boy on his head before leaning down to give him a kiss on the top of his head.

"Go wash up and I'll make dinner Fritz." Madeline said softly as she look down at her child. He had crimson red eyes and hair that was so light blonde that it almost looked white. Both things were from his father's side of the genes, but the boy had gotten Madeline's big eyes and soft facial figures along with her more lanky build. The boy also loved pancakes. It was interesting living with a constant reminder of a mistake that she made when she was in high school, but Madeline wanted to give the child a chance. Plus, she had the support of her brother and that was all Madeline really needed.

Fritz nodded quickly and wrapped his tiny arms around Madeline's leg. He happily chirped, "I won't let go unless you promise that we can have pancake for dinner, Maman!" Fritz looked up at Madeline with wide eyes as he flashed her a toothy grin.

Madeline chuckled and patted Fritz's head again before ruffling his hair up. "Alright Fritz. Now move along and wash your hands and I'll start up the pancakes." Madeline said gently. She watched her boy run off with a soft smile. She wrapped her arms around herself gently as she stared off into space at the spot Fritz had vanished from sight. Madeline jumped when she heard someone clear their throat. Madeline turned around quickly to find herself staring into her brother's light blue eyes.

"I still don't understand why y-" Alfred started to say before falling silent at the dark glare Madeline gave him.

"First off, this is a terrible time to talk about this. And second, I know you don't understand, but it's the way it's suposed to be. Gi- Fritz's father was just starting out since his badn got their first gig, he was of legal age while I wasn't, and if anyone had found out the truth both of our lives would have been ruined. It was a hard decision for me, but I'm positive it was the right one. Plus, now I have a cute little boy and an older brother I'll always be able to count on. I'm happy with what I've got." Madeline said quickly. It was true after all. She was very happy with her life so far.

Madeline walked past Alfred with her head held high. She calmly said, "Now, I've got some pancakes to make and I believe it's time for you to get ready for your job."

Alfred watched Madeline walk by and sighed softly. He quietly muttered, "I just want to make sure you're okay Maddie..."

After a nice dinner of pancakes Alfred left for work and Madeline was convinced to take Fritz out to the park after tens minutes of begging. "Kesese~ Awesome! We get to go to the park!" Fritz had exclaimed happily as the two walked out of the large apartment. Madeline had just patted his head affectionately and locked the door after them.

Madeline sat on one of the swings and watched Fritz and another boy run around. It was really cute. They were pretending to be super heroes. Fritz had deemed himself the Invincible Invisible and the other boy had just deemed himself superman. Madeline thought it was a nice sight. After a little bit Madline looked up at the sky and watched the clouds take their slow trek across the sky. She sat there picking out random clouds and figuring out which shapes they could possibly be. It was a fun activity that she loved doing, but didn't have much time for with her job and taking care of Fritz. She'd have to try it with her creative writing class. After all to be creative you need to stimulate your imagination and that's just what cloud watching did. Plus, Madeline could make them write somehting that was in some way connected to the clouds.

Madeline sighed happily before tilting her head back down to watch her child playing, but when she looked, Fritz was going. Jumping out of the swing and scanning the area, Madeline felt her good mood curl up in a corner and die. She was looking away for like two minutes! How far could two little boys go?

Madeline looked around quickly before moving down the path of the park. Madeline cupped her hands around her mouth and yelled, "Fritz? Fritz Francis Williams where are you?"

"Kid. Kid. What's wrong, kid? It's unawesome to cry like that." A man said in a ruff, but caring voice. He had just been walking around becuse he thought the park would be peaceful when he had noticed a little figure looking around for a little bit. The man has just passed it off as a kid playing a game or something, but when the kid, Gilbert had finally realized it was a kid, sat down on the ground and hugged his legs to him the man knew that something was wrong. He, being awesome as he was, decided to check it out and see what was going on. When he heard the kid crying quietly the man decided he would try to help. As he got closer he was shocked to see hair almost as white as his own.

"G- go away stranger. I- I'm n- not supposed to talk to strangers." The little boy snapped as he sniffled and try to stop crying.

"The name's Gilbert. There, now I'm not a stranger. Tell me what's wrong kid." Gilbert said quickly, hoping he would be able to cheer up the little guy.

The kid sniffled for a moment before he quietly said, "I- I got lost, okay? I was playing with a friend of mine and we ran off, but when I turned away my friend ran of like the unawesome guy he is. My mom was sitting at the swings watching us, but now I don't know how to get back to the swings and I'm probably just making her sad and Uncle Alfred says to never make mommy sad." The kid sniffled as new tears started going down his face.

Gilbert looked down at the kid for a moment as he scratched the back of his neck, not quite sure how to handle the situation. "Er... Well, kid... um," Gilbert said before pausing, realizing that he had no clue what this kid's name was.

"My name is Fritz," Fritz snapped quickly.

Gilbert's eyes went wide when he heard the name, but didn't show his surprise in his voice. "Well, Fritz, I'll take you back to the swings and we'll look for your mom. Come on now." Gilbert said as gentely as he could. He wasn't exactly the gentle type and was terrible at making other feel better.

Fritz sniffed for a little bit and rubbed at his eyes. He turned around to face Gilbert and was shocked to find himself staring into red eyes.

Madeline looked around frantically for Fritz before she decided to pull out her phone. Oh, she was a terrible mother. She'd call Alfred and see what he thought, but wait... she couldn't bother Alfred. He had already done so much for her at this point. She couldn't make him drop work to help her look. Alfred wouldn't always be there for her to rely on and Madeline would have to handle it on her own.

What would she do? What should she do? Madeline looked at her phone and thought about calling the police. They would surely be able to find her child quickly, but wasn't there a certain time that had to pass before you could report a missing person? Madeline quickly tossed that idea away. Maybe Fritz was still in the park. Surely he wouldn't wander off that much. Madeline just had to make sure to look for him carefully. Carefully? How hard would it be to find an albino kid?

Madeline put away her phone and took a deep breath to calm herself down. Everything was going to be fine. She'd find Fritz with no problem and then they'd go home and all would be well. Maddline turned around when she heard a familiar voice call out, "Mom!"

Madeline spotted her child running at her and quickly scooped him up into her arms, holding him closely to her. She felt light tears start dripping out of her eyes as she hugged her child. "Fritz. I was so scared. You know you're not supposed to leave my sight without telling me! What were you thinking? Anything could have happened! What would I have done if someone had taken you or you had gotten hurt?" Madeline scolded quickly. She was relieved, unbelievably relieved, that her child was safe. She didn't know what she'd do if she lost Fritz. Other than Alfred, Fritz was all Madeline had in this life.

Madeline looked up when she heard someone clear their throat and felt her heart stop. She stood there, silent tears on her checks and a boy in her arms, and stared at the person she hadn't seen in six years. The one that she had thought she would never see again. The one she had broken the heart of. The father of her child.

"Madeline... I think you didn't tell me something when you broke up with me six years ago." The man said softly as he watched both Madeline and Fritz.

Madeline looked into the red eyes of her ex-boyfriend for a moment. "Gilbert." Madeline softly whispered as she felt her heart slowly crack.

((A/N: This was for one of my other friends IRL. She's a really cool person. She told me that there were fics where two people had a child, but one didn't know it about like all of the Hetalia pairings except PruCan so I asked her if she wanted me to write her one. She said yes so I wrote her one. It was originally supposed to be a one-shot, but I love ending things on dramatic notes like that. It's just fun to do. I'm not sure if I'm going to continue this or not, but the first part was very fun to write. Let me know what you think by reviewing~ Sorry this is kind of short!))
