Renegotiating Dreams 3

Turkey stared blankly. What? What did he just say? He was...interested in him? What was that supposed to mean? He didn't even have a chance to wrap his head around the question before Russia took a step towards him.

Russia didn't even really know what he was doing, as he leaned down and captured the Turk's lips in a short kiss. He pulled back suddenly, well he guessed that confirmed it. He definitely had a bit of a crush on Turkey. He needed to go research this a bit more. "Well I guess I shall be pursuing you from now on Sadiq~" He then exited through the open kitchen window, and walked off through the garden humming.

Turkey just stood there for a second before running over and slamming the window shut. What. The. Hell. What had that been? Russia had just kissed him and then walked out of his kitchen. Had he missed something? He did a quick recap in his head. Russia is sitting in his kitchen. He naturally asks Russia why he's there. Russia says he came to see him. He tells Russia he doesn't have time for kids messing with him because they think it's funny. Russia says he's not there because he thinks it's funny. He asks then why is he here? Russia says that he's interested in him, kisses him, says that he'll be pursuing him from now on, and then leaves through the damn window like a nutjob. Nope, he hadn't missed anything. Then where the hell had that come from? Was this the kid's idea of a joke? Turkey wouldn't be surprised. Should he just ignore it then? He guessed he couldn't do much else....wait a minute. Turkey froze. How did the creepy bastard know his human name?!

While Turkey was trying to get things straight in his head, Russia was heading for Germany's house. Normally Russia would not consider going to Germany for anything but, he hadn't seen those books in any library or store since. He knocked on the door briskly, and a voice inside yelled "Be right there!" Then there was a crash inside, causing Russia to stare at the door oddly. The door finally opened showing a slightly unkempt Germany, who quickly tried to straighten himself up as he opened the door. He stopped, a little shocked to find Russia standing on his doorstep.

"Ah Hello Germany I came to ask you something." Russia said simply.

"Erm Yes, ah Come in?" Germany said awkwardly holding the door open a little further. Russia walked inside, hands behind his back, looking a tad.....nervous? Germany shook his head, how did that make any sense? "So, what was it you wanted to ask Russia?" Germany said glancing over his shoulder quickly as if making sure no one was there.

Hm, Germany was oddly jumpy today. Russia wondered if he had interrupted something. "I came to ask, if I could borrow one or two books from your library."

Germany stared blankly. Russia wanted to borrow books from his library? He guessed that was fine, he couldn't really imagine what Russia would want in there though. "Ja, that's fine. I don't mind if you bo-" Germany was cut off by another loud crash from the kitchen. He turned quickly "Just go ahead and take whichever books you'd like!" Germany said before running back towards the kitchen.

Russia stared after Germany for a second before walking over to a pair of ornate double doors. He quickly pushed them open and stepped into Germany's library. It really was quite impressive how many books Germany had acquired over the years. He was looking for two specific ones however. He walked over to the shelves and began perusing.

Germany stared at the mess in the kitchen. This is what he got for allowing Italy to use his kitchen while Prussia was home. Prussia and Italy both stared at him up from the floor. "May I ask what you were doing?" Germany said sternly crossing his arms.

"Nothing West, Honest! I just had this idea for the best dessert ever!" Prussia said jumping up onto his feet.

"Ah, I'm sorry Doitsu" Italy said standing up looking a little wobbly "I really thought it would work..." Germany facepalmed. Italy was still calling him that? He thought the habit would eventually drop, but ever since Japan had said his name in Japanese one time. Italy had decided it was cute, and had never stopped. Germany decided to let it drop, he guessed it didn't really matter...

"Just....clean it up" He said walking back out into the front hallway to find Russia standing there, firmly holding two books.

"Ah, Germany, I found the books I was looking for. Thank you for allowing me to peruse your library." Russia said heading for the door.

" It was no....problem" Germany said slowing down a bit upon viewing the books Russia had sought. 'How To Tell The State of One's Emotions Towards Another' and 'How to Develop a Relationship'. Russia quickly opened the door and left the house no sooner than Germany had had a chance to read the titles. Well that was strange. Was Russia after someone? Germany could only pity the target. Another crash sounded from the kitchen, but he had more important things to worry about now.

Russia got home quickly and sat down in one of his sitting room chairs. He hoped these books would be helpful. He set them down on the sidetable and pulled up a footstool. 'How To Tell The State of One's Emotions Towards Another' seemed a likely first candidate. Russia opened the book and began to read.

Meanwhile Turkey was trying to push the entire event out of his head. He was having some difficulties however. It really wasn't easy to just forget someone kissing you, then jumping out of your window. He still couldn't figure out why Russia had done it either. Had he been serious? Was he really out to pursue him....romantically? Turkey shuddered, this didn't seem like it would end well if that was the case. How were you supposed to react to someone declaring their intentions like that out of the blue? And if that was in fact Russia's true intentions, how was he supposed to deal with it? He paused, he'd never had anyone pursue him romantically. He'd never even really attempted it himself. He had no idea what to expect. He found himself hoping that it had in fact just been a joke. After all, why would anyone bother with him of all people? Turkey tried to calm himself. Yeah, it had probably just been a joke....right?
