didn't answer the door and hid under the bed. She wasn't letting Denmark find her this time.

rolls his eyes at the door, figuring that she must be ignoring it. He knocks again.

isn't going to say anything or even move, though she may have left the door unlocked.

takes his chances and tries the door, stepping inside. "Thora, you need to lock your door..."

hits her head on the bottom of the bed. That sounded like Lukas's voice… but maybe he had Denmark with him, so she stayed safely hidden.

glances around the house. Was she home...? He sits on the couch. She'd have to show up eventually.

waits about five minutes before crawling out. She doubted Denmark could go more than thirty seconds without breaking something or yelling so

she smoothed down her hair and dusted off her dress before peeking out of her bedroom door precariously.

stares at a wall, waiting.

relaxes her shoulders and tiptoes towards the kitchen to get a glass of milk, not even looking in the living room.

hears steps and glances over towards the kitchen. "Hei."

looks up as she opened the door and jumped a bit, her hand clutching on the handle. "Oh… It's you." She sighed and pulled out the carton of

Swiss milk and walked towards the cabinet where she kept glasses.

"Who else would it be?" Though he already knew the answer...

ignored the question and poured herself some milk, taking a sip as she looked out the kitchen window.

"Can we talk?"

"About what?" If it was about fish or his brother she didn't want to start on it.

pauses. "Well... I was wondering how you were about... Mitzi and I..."

turned her back to him and put the milk back in the fridge. She held her glass in one hand and sipped from it to procrastinate her answer._

"What do you mean?" She would act like she didn't care. At least he wasn't her sister, though she did still feel upset by it.

sighs. "How do you feel about it?"

shrugs and sips at her milk. "If it's what you want." It's not like she could *stop* him. Now if her *sister* showed up dating someone, then

she would do everything to get in the way. But she had to remind herself that he was different.

nods. "I know, but I have a feeling you're upset."

frowned. "It's fine." She would rather pretend it didn't exist.

frowns as well. "I'm sorry..."

"Why?" She gave him a dark look. Was he apologizing for liking someone?

sighs. "I know that you must not be happy about it."

nods. "I'd prefer it if you liked me or my counterpart… but Basch is nice, so I guess Mitzi can't be as horrible as I want her to be." She

hated saying this, so he had better be happy.

pauses. "I like you as a sister and your counterpart as a brother. You are both very dear to me."

nods. She was just afraid of being completely abandoned AGAIN by one of her siblings.

((Gee, thanks. -___- ))

(( Shush. No one likes you. <3 ))

"Nobody will ever take your place. You can still see me whenever you want."

doesn't believe him, but nods.

being completely honest.

abandonment issues… She kind of wants to avoid Lukas now to stop herself from feeling attached to him incase he disappears, too.

won't disappear anytime soon and wouldn't like if she avoided him.

also afraid that Denmark may be around him, and she really does NOT want to be anywhere near that idiot.

won't let Denmark hurt her.

doesn't think 'hurt' is the right term. She felt more violated and annoyed than anything.

would keep him from annoying her, then.

"I met your brother…" She said cautiously, not looking up from her almost empty glass.

glances at her. "You met Iceland?"

shakes her head with a frown. She wished she had meant that one. "Denmark." She spat out the name with disgust, and cringed as though saying

it was painful and unpleasant.

pauses before making a small laughing noise.

looked at him with a glare and storms to the sink to wash out her glass. It wasn't funny.

"I take it you don't like him...."

"No…" To put it lightly. She wanted him dead, and far away from her.

"Your counterpart doesn't, either..."

"I can't imagine why." She grumbled darkly and put the glass away.

laughs faintly again.

"I will kill him if he tries to come near me again." She warned him, entirely serious.

pauses. "Really?"

nods. She *really* did not like him, and she did not take being groped very lightly.

didn't take well to Denmark's groping his sister either.

didn't take well to Denmark's existence in general.

didn't suppose she would like him at all.

"He broke in to my house the other day, and another night he shattered my favorite vase." She scowled.

frowns. "He tends to do that...."

"I've been spending time in Europe to avoid him." She admitted. That didn't make her look weak; she was just annoyed with him!

blinks at her. "Why?"

shrugged. "I don't want to see the idiot." She also liked Swiss dairy products, and they were much cheaper in Switzerland than Iceland.

"Where have you been, then?"
