"Wait for me, big brother!" little Iceland yelled, running out into the snow with an un-buttoned coat trying to fly off of him. Norway paused, standing on the sidewalk for a minute before feeling a little force bounce off of his legs. He turned to see Iceland covered in snow up to his waist.

"Your coat!" Norway exclaimed, worriedly picking the child up and uniting each black button. "Make sure you have it buttoned before you come out next time."

Norway set Iceland down in the snow gently. Iceland nodded and sat down. He looked ot the grey sky and wrinkled his nose as a snowflake hit it.

"Does it snow this much here all the time?" he asked.

Norway nodded, taking a seat next to Iceland. Iceland reached his arms out to Norway, who smiled and placed him on his lap.

"It snows like crazy," he stated. "But it gets lonely often."

Iceland gave Norway a pitiful look. He wrapped his arms around Norway's waist the best he could.

"Don't be lonely, big brother!" Iceland exclaimed. "I'll always be your little brother! Forever!"

Norway hugged the little one back. He held him for several minutes, cherishing the moment before saying,

"And I'll always be your big brother. Forever."
