Special (Germany x Reader)

You were at Ludwig’s house, making dinner to surprise him. Feliciano and Kiku were helping too. It was a german delicacy, called Gaisburger Marsch. It’s a famous stew of meat, potatoes, and several kinds of vegetables. Kiku was helping Feli skin the potatoes. He had already cut up the vegetables, which were carrots, broccoli, a few onions that didn’t make Kiku’s eyes tear up (magic), and some celery. You were getting the fat off the meat. You knew the fat wasn’t good for you, but Ludwig liked it.  So you left a little on.

“Done!” You three said in unison. You all giggled. Feli carefully put the potatoes inside the pot. You then put the meat in there and stirred for what seemed like 10 minutes. But it was only a minute.

“Okay! Kiku, Feli, what time will Germany get home?”

“Hmm.. ve.. Around.. 3:30! It’s..”

“Hm. 3:15. (y/n), how rong does it take for the Marsch to cook?”

“(Just to match the time, it’s gonna be 10 minutes, not 2 hours) Hmm, about 10 - 15 minutes!”

“Ve~ Sounds great!” Feli said, raising his arms in the air.

~le 10-minute timeskip~

“Okay, it’s done! Now, let’s set it out in bowls.” You said, as you got 4 bowls from the cabinet, handing one to Feliciano and another to Kiku. You carefully placed down the bowls you held and filled them with the Marsch. You took the it to the table, Feli and Kiku repeating your actions. All you had to do was wait for Ludwig. Current time: 3:27. After getting everything ready, as if on cue, Ludwig opened the door, smelling the air.

“Vhat is this?” He asked to himself. You came rushing up to him and nearly scared him half to death by glomping him. “(y-y/n)! You’re here? Vhy are you here? Vait, Feli? Kiku? Vhy are you here? Vhat am I smelling?” The confused german asked you. You giggled and covered his eyes with one hand and took his hand with your other. He blushed slightly, and so did you. Tinted LOOOVE-- Get it? Tinted cheeks? Okay I’ll go now...

“While you were coming home, Kiku, Feli, and I made Gaisburger Marsch for you! I-I know it’s a special occasion, but I figured you’d like to have some, s-since it’s a g-german delicacy..” You sputtered, realizing it seemed like a bit too much because it’s usually prepared to welcome home a soldier (and if your mum walks in when you're reading this say you’re getting some education). But you carried on. “Ta-da!” You took your hand off of his eyes. “S-so, um.. You can just, uh.. S-sit down and enjoy i-if you want, I guess.”

“Ja, sure. After all, if (y/n) made it, zen it must be good.” Ludwig ruffled your hair. He’d never done that to anyone else! Well, anyone else you saw. “Thank you.” And you could’ve sworn you saw a tiny smiling pulling the corners of his lips. Feli and Kiku sat across from Ludwig, letting you sit by him. You blushed, because of their kindness and number two, knowing that you liked Ludwig. So you gracefully took a seat. Crossing one leg over the over, you failed to realize Ludwig quietly observing you. You sighed out of satisfaction, feeling comfortable in your current position. You delicately placed you hands upon the table, making sure you didn’t knock anything over. Ludwig found this somewhat fascinating. How tender you were being, respectful to someone else’s property. But right as you were holding a fork, ready to consume your Marsch, a crash erupted from the sky, causing you to drop the fork, Kiku twitch, and Feliciano scream... And latch onto Kiku. Rain started to rush it’s way to the ground, making sure it got there before anything else could. A rumble of thunder came from a short distance. A thunderstorm was going on, and a serious one at that. You got up from your chair and walk towards window, not making any sound in your (f/c) and (2nd f/c) socks. You decided to mis-match the socks because you thought it would be fun. Looking out the window, your eyes widened at the sight. You could barely see, the window being brutally slaughtered with the never-ending rain. Though you thought it was bad, Ludwig thought to himself. Vhow.. so it’s raining.. It’s not like every day I might be able to spend some more time with (y/n). Oh vhell. Maybe you can tell her tonight.. Ja, sounds like a plan!  

“U-um, hey (y/n).. Since it’s raining, I figured you would vhant to stay over. Feli and Kiku, too.” Ludwig offered, hoping (y/n) would accept. You turned around, smiling. You pranced toward him to give him a soft hug.

“Yay! I get to spend more time with Luddy! I-I can call you Luddy, right?” (y/n) innocently questioned.

“J-Ja, sure, if you vhant to..”  And with that, you brought up the uneaten food, and everyone went back to their seats to enjoy their now room-temperature food. It was still good, though.

~*Timeskip brought to you by Mutti*~

“Hey Ludwig?” Feli yawned. “When can we go to sleep, and where, ve~?”


“Now, I guess. You can sleep in za living room vith Kiku. (y/n), vhere do you vhant to sleep?”

“Hm..” As you were thinking, Ludwig’s face fell when you shouted your answer to it.  “Your room!” You dashed to it, your eyes closed as you laughed. But the door was closed. Good thing Ludwig was close behind, or else you would’ve hurt yourself. And badly, at that.

“Vhatch it! You almost ran into zhat door!” You turned to Ludwig, a happy expression overcoming your face as his worried one started to fade. “Are you hurt?”

“No, thanks to you. Now, when can we go in?” His expression struggled to say normal.

“St-stay in here, vhould you?” He slipped inside and shut the door, only a few minutes later to hear rustling. Then you heard grunting from the room across. Then came out a very bedheaded Prussian.

“Vhat iz going on? Oh, hello (y/n)!” Gilbert smiled. “Vhy are you in front of my bruder’s door?”

“Oh, well since it’s raining, and badly, Feli, Kiku, and I are going to stay over. Feli and Kiku are sleeping in the living room and I’m sleeping in Luddy’s room.”

“Oh, so you are, ja?” A wide smirked outstretched on his face. “The same bed?” You reached over and playfully slapped Gibert.

“Yes, but not like that! You silly goose!” You giggled, and so did Gilbert. He was aware of your crush on  his brother, and sometimes tried to help you. Sometimes. He couldn’t all the time because he was mostly sleeping. Then Ludwig came out of his room.

“You can.. Oh. Hi zhere, bruder.”

“Oh, hello! I was just talking vhith (y/n), but I’m gonna go back to sleep now. Bye!” And he turned around and went back to his room. Not even a minute later snoring was heard.

“Vhell, come on. I also got you some night clothes.”

“Thanks!” You ran i and got the night clothes. You went to the bathroom but just decided to keep the top on, because it went past your mid-thigh. So it was a short nightgown. You came back and gently placed the pants on the floor and snuggled into the bed. A few minutes later, Ludwig sat down and got under the blankets. Thinking you were asleep, he said what he’s wanted to say the most.

“Goodnight, (y/n). Ich.. Ich liebe dich.” And he got a small, whispering response. And much more warmth.

“Ich liebe dich auch.” His eyes opened to meet a sparkling pond of (e/c), belonging to the responder. “I love you too, Luddy.” Usually, in the books you’ve read, the boy takes your kiss. But it was different this time. It was special. You wrapped your soft, (s/c) arms around him, and planted a soft kiss on his lips. Almost immediately, he kissed back. Not much longer, he nibbled. You accepted. He tasted of the faint Gaisburger Marsch. But strongly of potatoes and wurst. That annoyance of air decided to Macarena it’s into the kiss. When you separated, you looked over to see Kiku with his camera, and Feli ‘veeing’.

“Ve~ (y/n) finally told him!” Feli smiled.

“And we have the kiss arr in a picture. Good night arr of you.” And with that, he and Feli left the room. Confused, you turned back to a frowning German. His eyes were closed, but not for long.

“You know, (y/n)..” Ludwig started, opening his eyes. “This is special.” He wrapped his arms around you as you had did to him. You snuggled closer into his chest. “Goodnight, sweetheart.”

“G’night..”

And with that the night concluded, Kiku with the pictures, Feli dreaming of pasta, and (y/n) and Germany close together in a sprouting love.

This truly...

...Counted as special.
