Lietpol
Some cute fluff ig
Poland gets jelous 😂✌️
“Estonia I’m not sure what to do”
Lithuania drowns his face in a pillow
“What’s wrong with having to be allies with Poland eh?”
Estonia chuckles as he sits by the bed reading a book
“Yeah he looks like a nice guy” Latvia adds
“He LOOKS like a nice guy…”
“But he looks better in a miniskirt”
Lithuania zones out
“Eh??”
The other two Baltic states said in confusion
“I-I mean, he LOOKS like a nice guy but I can’t say the same for his actual attitude..”
Lithuania flushes
“What’s so wrong about him? I’ve never talked to him before”
Latvia says
“Me neither, fill us in, I wanna know what he’s like before I actually start talking to him”
Estonia adds
The two states glare, waiting excitingly for Lithuania to tell them what Poland is really like
“Well..he’s too..agh how do I put this, direct”
Lithuania says
“Mr Russia tried to attack Poland and I heard way before he attacked so I tried to warn him but he just wouldn’t listen..!”
Lithuania groans
“EHHHH????”
Latvia and Estonia jaws drop as their faces turn pale white,
Who could do such a horrifying thing, letting russia attack them no biggie
Lithuania sighs
“At times he’s actually pretty serious but thenherandomlyswitchesfrthatcoolmatureguytooawholefreakazoidormaybeomjustoverthinkingitidontknow!!”
“Oh my..” Latvia says, astonished by the sudden rambling,
Meanwhile Estonia begins to brainstorm
“Hmm, perhaps you just need a break ey?”
Estonia suggested, wich caught Lithuania’s attention
“What do you mean?” He asks
“Well Mr Russia bosses you around a lot, and recently he just decided to try and attack your friend Poland, so you’ve been trying to do your best to helps him, and at the same time get along and bond, but Poland is just too..Poland?”
“That is stressful!”
Latvia adds
“Maybe your mind is too jumbled up from all the stuff you had to do, making it hard for you to understand Poland’s actions, leading to a harder time trying to bond and maintain your patience?”
“Could be”
Estonia acknowledged
“You really think a break will help?”
The two Baltic states nod in agreement
Suddenly, a loud voice echoed in the hallway
“Latvia! I need you to draw me a few pictures!”
The Baltic states shiver as Mr Russia’s voice enters their eardrums
“Latvia?” Comically loud footsteps comically shake the earth
“Y-you guys go without me..I have felling Mr Russia is going to order me to do much more than silly drawing..”
Latvia sobs as he gets up and sadly
Walks to the door
“I wanna hang out, I really do..!” Latvia cries and runs out to see Mr Russia
Meanwhile back with Poland
“Lithy Hasent been calling me lateley, usually he rings me at noon, yell at my ear as I tease him” he ponders while staring at the silent phone
After awhile he sighs
“This is boring, I’m gonna see what he’s up too and annoy the shit out of him” Poland laughs
He runs to his closet and picks out his cuntiest- I mean “I want to annoy lithy” outfit
“Lady jadwiga I’m heading out to annoy Lithuania”
Jadwiga lifts her haid from the book she was reading
“Oh? I did not hear you do some planning on the phone the entire day”
She sighs
“Then again you do not do said planning..very well then, Carry on, be safe alright?”
“Yes ma’am”
Poland assures he’ll be safe and goes off
“Let’s take a walk in the garden ey? I’m sure Mr Russia is busy-uhm..playing with Latvia..”
Estonia suggests
“A-are you sure we should be relaxing right now.. I feel like we should be helping Latvia so he isn’t alone, at the very least pray for him”
Lithuania shivers
“No, Latvia can take care of himself, don’t worry, we did a good job teaching him to be brave don’t you think?”
He pats his back
“I..”
“You gotta think positive!”
Lithuania happily sighs
“Your right, I should stay positive”
“That’s the spirit!” Estonia gives the boy a warm hug.
Lithuania smiles as he hugs him back
“Im glad you guys care so much about me..I really do”
“Awh, Lithuania, we’re happy we’re making you feel better. Now, let’s go take a walk, and hey, after that we can go to France’s city!”
Estonia says
“Sure!”
Lithuania happily agrees.
The two head to the garden, happily chatting. After awhile they put on their best clothes to have some fun in France’s city
By the time Poland made it to the allie’s place, the two Baltic states had been on their merry way to the city
He knocks on the door as Russia answers
“Oh~ Poland! Lovely of you to be saving me the expenses of buying weaponry to try and attack you”
He raises his fists
“When I can just attack you with my bare hands!”
Right before Russia could even move a single muscle, a shaky voice yelled from behind
“M-Mr Russia!! I am done with the drawing!!”
Latvia quickly gets in between Russia and Poland, widening the gap between them
“O-oh!! Poland!! Nice- uhm, what are you doing here..haha..?” Latvia attempts to let out a chuckle to lessen the heavy atmosphere Russia was emitting
“What are you here for?” The sweaty Latvia stutters
“Where’s Lithy? He Hasent called me at all today” Poland asked
“Huh? Lithuania? He’s hanging out with Estonia right now”
That response caught Russia’s attention
“Oh? How come I was not hearing of this?” He shows of that soft smile carved my the devil himself making Latvia tremble
“I-I swear h-he just needed a break!!”
That response, caught POLAND’s attention
“A break from what? What’s stressing my lithy?”
He grabs onto Latvia
“Yes, what is stressing my friend out? I must know where they are to teach them a lesson about being stressed and not telling me anything, even worse, not telling me if they were heading out”
Russia joins in on the grabbing
“Uhm..” Latvia feels a shake by his left
“You must tell me first!! I want to help lithy on his de-stressing”
Poland commands
“You must tell me first,
Latvia”
Russia too, shakes the poor trembling Latvia,
from all the shaking, Latvia finally crashes out
“LITHUANIANEEDEDABREAKFROMPOLANDSOHEANDESTONIAWENTTOFRANCE’SCITYANDISTAYEDBEHINDTOENTERTAINMRRUSSIAEVENTHOUGHIREALLYWANTEDTOTAGALONG!!” He cries and rushes inside, a trail of drawings follow behind him as if they were footprints
Poland, stunned by the response Latvia gave, stood still in front of the door
“Lithy is stressed..because of me..?” Poland mutters, his usually wide open eyes start to close down, and they feel they feel dry
“What did I do to make lithy feel sad..?” He ponders, without realizing he mutters “bye then” to Russia, and unconsciously got up on his horse and made a trip to France’s city
Back with the two Baltic states, the two settled on a library cafe
“This library has a really relaxing vibe Estonia, you’ve got good tastes, I gotta say when you mentioned ‘France’s city’ I was expecting Paris or something”
“Carcassonne’s known for the relaxing-castle type aesthetic, and Paris is know for being popular—“
Estonia sips his coffee
“Carcassonne, on the other hand is not as popular as Paris, and is less crowded”
“Not to mention the prices are cheaper..gahaha..” Estonia reconciled and flipped page from the book he was reading
“Is that so? You know your tourisim well Estonia, color me suprised” Lithuania compliments Estonia
“Haha well, when you spend time studying Norwegian countries in an attempt to join their little club, you learn a thing or two”
The two continue reading
“I never knew France had many shamblers and bombers” Estonia says
“Estonia and Lithuania? Yeah they were here” France said, he points to the left “they went to have some fun in Carcassonne.”
He giggles
“You should’ve seen how adorable they looked, wearing such cute and fancy little outfits, it’s almost like their on a date ohohoho”
Poland crosses his arms, feeling exasperated
“Do you have a specific location?” He huffed
The giggling france was caught off guard seeing the “always carefree-low cool-Poland” suddenly blow some steam off him for once. And then it clicked
“Why, if I remember correctly they went to a library cafe, I’m not sure what but they were headed to a spot popular for all the couples”
Poland flinches
“What?”
“Yes,yes you should have seen all the proposals *I* have seen, oh how romantic, it’s no wonder I’m known as the country of romance~” while in his attempt to tease Poland, France gets lost in his ego.
As he’s being distracted, Poland left, now heading his way to Carcassonne
“What did lithy have such a problem with me for to go to Estonia? He’s super open with me”
Poland stops his steps
“Atleast that’s what I thought..”
He begins to doubt if—
“No, I’m sure he just..thought I wouldn’t pickup and went to Estonia as a last resort..no offense Estonia”
He continues his steps, still bitter
“What does Estonia know..sure he’s been together with Lithy way longer than I have, but..but Lithy cares way more about me! He even warned me about that Russia launching an attack, an even offered to help..”
Again, Poland stops his steps
“And I refused to listen..”
He brushes it off and continues walking
“Whatever, I’m sure I can fix this, I’m sure Lithy will listen”
“Hey Estonia..”
“Hmm?”
He stops reading his book
“What’s wrong?”
Concerned for his friend, he puts down his cup aswell, and puts all attention to Lithuania
“About Poland..it’s just-“
He turns to the warm sunlight beams seeping through the tainted windows. Realizing he might ruin the calming vibe, and purpose of this whole trip, he brushes it off
“..Nevermind, this whole thing is so that I can stop thinking about him”
He lays his head down on the table, and faces away from Estonia, afraid he’ll be mad
“No, Lithuania that’s not the whole purpose of this thing,”
Estonia says
“Huh?” Lithuania turns his head back to Estonia,
upon turning back, he notices how worried he looks
“It’s part of the reason, but really, this whole thing is to make you feel relaxed and comfortable enough to talk about your troubles” he scoots closer to Lithuania
“While I was reading that book, there was a saying that you can’t open a bottle if the cover is too tight, or if the glass was too cold. If you tried to open the bottle by itself, you’ll end up tired trying to loosen the tight cover, even if you keep trying, there’s a chance the glass could shatter because of the force and and the temperature of the glass” The bot said as he brushes Lithuania’s hair off his eyes.
The view was certainly comforting to see in Lithuania’s eyes. Estonia being there for him, to care and to listen
“However, if you spend time, maybe getting a towel to help with the cover, or moving the bottle to even the temperature, maybe then the bottle would open due to your efforts of trying to understand, why it was so hard to open in the first place”
“Is that so..” Lithuania unconsciously mutters
Estonia softly chuckles
“My point is, the whole trip is to make you loosen up, and relax until you’re ready to speak”
Lithuania felt his eyes getting teary
“Thank you, I’m glad you aren’t mad..”
“Now why the heck would I be mad?”
Lithuania lets out a soft laugh as he gets up from his Laying down position and rubs his eyes
“So what’s this about Poland?”
Estonia asked, grabbing his coffee again and taking a sip.
Lithuania takes deep breaths before explaining
“Poland just seems to do whatever he wants..and he always uses the excuse of ‘oh it’s the Poland rule’ but..” Lithuania starts to fume
“Damnit, I’m not polish!! I just wish he would listen for once, even pretending like he cares would be enough..It’s clear that he doesn’t but I’d be willing to take any kindness that comes from him, real or fake..” Lithuania
Huffs
“Lithuania don’t say that..”
Estonia turns to his coffee
“You deserve to have real kindness, you shouldn’t be given fake kindness at all, you deserve something real”
He rubs the rims of the cup
“It’s not fair Estonia, I listen to him all the time, but he doesn’t listen to me, he doesn’t even try..”
Estonia puts his hand behind Lithuania’s back and gives it a good pat
“It’s good that you’re listening to him Lithuania, it just shows how kind hearted you are. You deserve someone who’ll listen to you”(this feels so dry smh)
“You can always talk to me whenever you want, we’ll have conversations like this as much and as long as you need”
Lithuania felt his worries completely wash away upon hearing that, and he started to cry in Estonia’s arms.
It’s nice to know you’ll always have a shoulder to cry on
“Ah, this must be where Lithy and Estonia are, I can feel it”
Poland mumbles, he walks around the massive library, the smell of delicious treats cover the entire room.
The library was extremely packed with a lot of people, it’d be extremely hard to find anyone specific.
Everyone there had some character, one girl had neon high lights, another had super feathery accessories. On top of all that, with this amount of space, forget it being hard, it’d be downright impossible.
Fortunately for Poland, he can detect Lithuania no matter the situation, he doesn’t know why however, and hasn’t really thought about it that much
After a few minutes of searching, he finds bookcases, arranged in a square near a wall, whatever was behind those bookcases, it was hollow enough for there to be a room.
Poland walks to the very end of the bookcases, lo and behold there was in fact a room, he sneaks in between the huge gap between the bookcase and the wall.
From a distance, he saw Lithuania tightly hugging Estonia, as he warmly hugs him back
Estonia can be heard muttering “there, there”
Upon the site Poland felt bitter, extremely bitter. Soon after that he began to feel a little angry, however he suppressed it
“Lithy, there you are” Poland said, his voice echoed in the little space the 3 of them had
“Poland? How’d you find us?” Estonia asked.
Deep inside, Poland thought to himself; there is no “us”—he was looking for Lithuania, and Lithuania only
As Estonia waited for an answer, Poland noticed Lithuania burrying his face into Estonia’s chest, doing his best to hide his face, and gripping onto him tighter.
He didn’t want to see Poland, not right now, not in awhile
Poland somewhat got the message, but refused to accept it
“Everything will be fine after this, I’ll say sorry and everything will go back to normal” Poland thought to himself
“I just, wanted to hang out with him today” Poland replies,
Clear as day that it was just improv, Lithuania could hear it, he knew and gripped tighter
“Ah, sorry Poland, he’s uhm..sleepy” Estonia said, trying to shoo him off in the nicest way possible, not wanting things to escalate
Poland clenches his fist
“He’s gripping pretty tightly on you, are you sure he’s asleep?” He nervously avoids eye contact
Suddenly
“Poland, please” Lithuania said, finally lifting his face from Estonia, still having his arms around him
“I..don’t feel like hanging out with *you*” today
Poland froze
“Whatever do you mean Lith? You were always ringing me before, and we always hung out, why the sudden change” His voice shook the last few words but it wasn’t noticeable
“I don’t feel like it, now just go, please” Lithuania lowers his head, avoiding eye contact from Poland
Poland listen, and angrily turns back, trying to suppress his stomping footsteps
“That was tough..you alright Lithuania?” Estonia asked, sighing of relief that Poland went away
“Mm..yeah, I’ll be fine”
“What are you gonna talk to him again?”
“Soon, I’ll just need some more time”
“Hm, take as long as you need, I’ll keep supporting you”
Both smile and continue to chat about some books to lift the mood
It’s not in fact “soon” Poland thought to himself, hiding behind the bookshelves
He can’t wait for “soon”
He can’t wait for that.
He recalls how Lithuania held onto Estonia so tightly
So *dependant*
“I don’t know why, but that makes me mad” Poland quietly mumbles
Even worse, he recalls how Lithuania shoo’d him off
“Did I do something wrong?”The nervous boy bites his nails
On his way home, thoughts kept circling around his head, never ending until he slept
