[align=center]Amelia nodded slowly, allowing her worry to be replaced with hope. "Right... You're prob right. I'm being stupid." she snorted, standing back up and placing her hands on her hips,"Nothing bad's gonna happen to us. I won't let it!" she announced, lifting her chin,"I am, after all, a heroine." she smirked, knowing full well that she was exactly like her freaking brother. Oh well.

[align=center]OOC: OMAG NO YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN xD

IC: "And, on that note, the wedding. We should probably plan one, but for when?" The American mused, sitting back down on the couch and draping herself over Arthur's lap. It was clear that she was restless and couldn't sit still. It was understandable considering all that had happened in such a short amount of time.

[align=center]"I'm going to look all bloated in the wedding dress, but... I can work something out." Two months wasn't far from then. She would have to spend a majority of her free time wedding planning. She smiled against his lips as he kissed her.

[align=center]Amelia nodded and sat up,"What about France?" she asked teasingly,"He could be your best man."

[align=center]"Duh! She's my sissy." Amelia grinned, leaning back into the soft couch cushions as she scrolled through the contacts on her phone. "But... I'm thinking that we hold back the news of the pregnancy from Matthew and Maddie until next meeting. I won't get much fatter before then anyhow, and I figure that they would prefer to find out in person." she shrugged. "Unless you're feeling like calling 'em up and telling 'em."

[align=center]"Here, use my phone." Amelia offered, handing it over to the Englishman and pulling her knees up to her chest. Despite her tiny belly-bump, she was still able to hug her knees to her chest. She figured that this wouldn't last for much longer. It was in that moment, of course, that she felt nausea rising inside of her like boiling water. She gave a groan and stood up, clutching her stomach tight. "I'll- I'll be right back. I'm not feeling right." she muttered, scurrying away to the bathroom. She'd been having waves of sickness, mostly in the mornings, almost every day for the past few days. She now realized that it must have been due to the pregnancy.

[align=center]When Amelia was done puking her guts out, she slowly stood back up and sniffed, frowning. "God, that sucks." she mumbled, wiping her mouth off with a rag and then leaning her head against Arthur's shoulder.

[align=center]"Ugh, why can't you dudes get pregnant?" Amelia grouched. After a moment of thought, she crinkled up her nose and shook her head. "Eh... That would be weird. I wouldn't wanna see you hobbling around in your eighth month of pregnancy, dying of cramps and complaining about your back." she giggled.

Whoops! Sorry! I've been busy! My sister got a horse the other day for her birthday, and it's like all I've been doing with my life. xD

IC:
Audra relieved a long, heavy yawn as she leaned back against the wall, rubbing at one of her eyes. "Just a few more hours," she murmured, a small grin quirking at the corners of her lips,"and then we can sleep for as long as we please."

[align=center]Audra bit down on her bottom lip before looking up to the Lithuanian and tipping her head to the side. "Say, Toris..." she began, tipping her head to the side like a curious puppy dog might have. She sat down on the edge of the bed, keeping her gaze steadily trained on him. They seldom had any time for chatting so she figured, until dinnertime, she may as well have kept herself entertained. "Two things. A- here. Sit down next to me." she offered, patting the area of the bed next to her,"and B- You know how we have the same geographic region and all, which is a large portion of the reason that we're here in the first place, but we never knew each other before I was taken here. I don't know anything about how you were before coming here." She shifted a little bit, hoping that she wasn't asking him anything that made him uncomfortable,"Do you think you could tell me a bit of what you were like before I met you?"

[align=center]"Just, like..." she trailed off, staring down at her lap before looking back over to him,"Were you any different than you are now? Who did you hang out with, and who did you despise? Or even what you did in your freetime... Back when freetime was a thing. Things like that." she explained, bluish-grey eyes gleaming curiously.

"Hm. I'd think that a place like this could change a country up like crazy... Then again, I've not changed all that much either." Audra mused with a shrug,"I didn't really have any friends before I came here. I mostly just hung out with Raivis."

"Well... I did get a lot more sleep." she snorted,"and I was probably a whole lot happier without... You know constantly looking over my head."

Audra absently began running her work-calloused fingers through her tousled blonde locks,"No, but seriously. I don't know if you remember what I looked like when I first started living here, but I wasn't big at all. I was practically malnourished because I hardly had enough money to keep myself going." She shrugged and crinkled up her nose as she recalled her once narcissistically confident attitude,"I was always picking fights with people, and kinda used all of my money up fighting. But I've learned to keep myself in check a bit better since coming here. Kinda have to."

"Aannddd that's enough talking about history." Audra gave a small, almost wistful, laugh. Much unlike she was now, it was true that the female nation previously burned with a pugnacious flame. She'd throw herself into any battle at any time. She now realized how stupid that she once was, and did everything in her power to make things right. Hard, seemingly never ending labor was definitely enough to get her in shape, both mentally and physically, and she definitely understood the concept of discipline with how ruthless she had learned Russia could be.

Bump!~ if you'd like, we can time skip to whenever you'd like if you want :L

ooc: It's no prob. xD

ic: "Mhm... But you're gonna have to put up with it when I get to that point." she sighed slowly and wrapped her arms around his back. She gave him a soft kiss on the cheek and then pulled away, a hand on her hip. "I suppose that it would be best that we start planning the wedding as soon as possible then, hm?"

"I should totally wear a leopard-print dress with, like, huge black stripper heels. And you could wear pimp clothes and we could go to Vegas or something." Amelia blabbered as she whirled and walked from the bathroom as if she'd not just barfed. Though it wasn't evident, she was just messing around with him. To her, a traditional wedding was perfectly fine. Or anything that Arthur wanted, really. She knew that he wouldn't want anything too flashy or exciting and she accepted that... Though there was no doubt that she would want to add her own little personal touches. And it wasn't as if it was going to be huge. Only her sister and brothers were even going to be in attendance. "Ooh, do you want to invite your brothers?" she asked suddenly, glancing over at him,"You know? Scotland, Wales, Ireland, and Northern Ireland? Actually, wait no. I think they're in the war too, and plus Scotland is a drunk a**hole." she sighed and pulled up a wedding dress site on her phone.

It was clear that the next few onths of planning would be long and tiring ones.

Amelia grinned at Maddie's comment. "I know, I know. But I love him. Really really love him." she declared, getting all warm just as she usually did upon thinking about the Englishman. Even after being in a relationship with him for nearly three months, it made her all warm and fuzzy just to think of him and happy to be around him. Yeah, it sounded super stupid and cliche, but she was kinda-sorta madly in love with the Brit. At this point, her belly had practically doubled from the little lump that it had been a month previously. It still wasn't all that large and could be hidden if she wore a baggy t-shirt, yet she still wouldn't be able to know whether or not it was a boy or girl for another two or so months. She wrapped her arms around her sister in a hug and playfully whispered into her ear,"You never know. You and old Francy could be next." she teased.

Then I suppose that this means that the rest of the characters are mine. CHALLENGE ACCEPTED. XD
