[Hetalia] Canada X Reader: I like you, I love you!

I tugged my sleeve a bit.

It was my first day in this town, and nobody but my brother noticed me.

I noticed a girl, who looked very kind. .

I walked towards her. It seemed that she was my new neighbor.

"Um. . I'm Matthew, your new neighbor." I say quietly. I hope she heard me. 

"Hello Matthew~ I'm ____! It's a pleasure to meet you." She chirped. I smiled. 

"Could you please remember who I am. . ?" I say, because I really think she might not notice me. .

"Why is that? Of course, I'll remember you!!" She then beams.

I spotted her again, this time, she was checking the mail of her house.

It seemed like she felt lonely today.

"Hey. . What's wrong? Would you like something to eat. . ?" I offer. She looked at me, a bit confused.

"Yeah, that would be fine. What do you have with you as of now?" She asks.

I thought for a while.

"Well, I could make pancakes for you. . I hope you don't mind." I said a bit quietly.

"Pancakes? Why not?" She smiled a bit. "Hey! What are we doing in the open? Let's go inside!! I'm home alone. ."

I nodded, and she told me to follow her inside.

"Um. . So. . The pancakes, right?" I say out of the blue.

"Ah, yup! There's some pancake mix over th-" Her words cut off.

____ looked at the window, and saw a car about to park.

Huh?

"Matthew, my parents are here! Tomorrow, okay?"

"Eh?! Um, okay. . "

"You escape through the backdoor? My parents might get mad at me. ." 

She lead me to the backdoor, and I sort of dashed to my house, and went to my room.

I hugged my polar bear. He doesn't remember me. . I honestly don't remember his name as well. .

I want to see ____ again. . 

I think I like her. .

I woke up this morning, hugging my polar bear. .

I felt more shy than usual, because ____ said yesterday that she was going to visit my house, because she was curious.

____'s parents were protective of her, and it was very rare for ____ to go visit other people's houses. . 

I think that makes me lucky. .

I got dressed, and I put on my red hoodie. 

Right after, as if on queue, the doorbell rang, and then I opened the door.

"Um. . Who is it. . ?" I asked shyly.

"It's ____!"

"Oh, Bonjour ____."

I led her in, and we sat on the couch.

"Um. . I don't know what we should do here," I say, "We could play rock-paper-scissors. . I'm so sorry for not preparing! I'm rather boring. . "

"It's fine, Matthew." ____ says, patting me in the back. "Well, I am kind of thirsty! Do you have anything to drink?"
"Ah! I . . I don't have water. . But, I have iced coffee somewhere. . " I offered. 

"Iced coffee, then~" She smiled sweetly. She looked cute. . 

"I'll prepare it, I think this won't be long. . I guess." I say. I stood up, and I prepared the coffee for ____. I went back and gave it to her, and I sat down. 

"Hey, ____?" I asked.

"What is it, Matthew?"

"Um. . Well. . I. ."

"Huh? Matthew, don't be afraid."
"I. . Um. . Uh . . "

"Matthew?"
"I l-like. . . Honestly. . Um. . "

"Matthew, you could tell me tomorrow~ It's fine, don't stress yourself." She stood up, and she was about to leave.

"W-wait, ____!!"

"Huh?"
"I like. . no wait. . I-I love you, ____!"
