Arthur yawned. He stretched a bit and fumbled to find his clock on his bedside locker.

Five past five o'clock? Why would he wake up so early?

He thought he may have heard a noise, something slamming, but shoved it away to be part of a forgotten dream. Both of the boys always slept in late if he let them, and the last weeks he wouldn't wake them, grateful for the short peace.

And of course he wouldn't wake Alfred because he still acted like he wasn't there.

He scratched the back of his head. Maybe he should stop ignoring America, he really wasn't that mad anymore. By now he was pretty sure Alfred didn't remember the incident from so many years ago.

But it was hard to stop it, partly because it was just too much fun how much the American was bothered by it. Stupid git, he deserved some struggling, Arthur made it far to easy for him at times.

Putting on his dressing gown he walked towards the kitchen to find himself something to divert himself.

THUD. Cursing. Just as he walked down the stair he heard it again. It wasn't a dream? Already getting angry at whoever broke into his house he stormed down and ripped the door open.

Sealand and America where on the floor, wrestling with each other. Arthur needed quite some seconds to understand what the heck was going on.

America seemed to have a hard time with Sealand who keeled on his chest, trying to hit him. One of Americas Hands dodged the attempts, the other was on Sealands throat. America hissed with disappointment as the teen was seemingly unaffected by his try to struggle him, he wasn't even coughing. His skin seemed to be out of steel.

"WHAT THE HELL!" England shouted at the two, but they didn't notice, furthermore the Brit felt panic when he saw a glint in Americas eyes, like he was going to use his real strength on Sealand, and leaped forward between the too. Both of them struggled against him, still aiming at the other, until he had them separated, his arm around Sealands waist, panting heavily. The boy looked at him confused. "Iggy? What.."

"Don't call him that!" America cut him off. He seemed to be even angrier then before.

Sealand, seeing that England was with him as an advantage, pointed at the taller blonde. "He started!"

"What the fuck? You hit my face for no reason!!?"

Just now Arthur saw that one side of Alfreds face was rather red and swollen.

Alfred on the other site realised that Arthur could see him. He started beaming. "You lost."

Arthur sighed, mumbling half-hearted insults, just happy the taller calmed down, and scanned Sealand for injuries. The boy thus beamed at him as well. "I got pretty strong eh?" he smiled brightly and a little bit cheeky as he turned towards America who just picked up Texas from the floor. He rubbed his cheek before returning the bold smile.

"Nice punch."

"Thanks."

From that point on the younger two combined their powers to annoy England.

At first England thought he could finally call his home peaceful again, but sadly he was soon to realise that the two made a lot more damage while playing then while fighting.

He didn't even get why they got along suddenly, and even after a fight. Arthur would have rolled his eyes and sighed 'men..' if he wasn't one himself. He already had had a pretty hard time after America had told Sealand that he had called the Brit 'mommy' when he had been small.

"Can I have some tea, mommy?"

"Yeah please mommy, and get me some burgers, but from the store, I don't want to die on food poisoning~"

One comment about Finnland had stopped the fun for Sealand. America suffered short-time deafness. Arthur would have rather liked to see him bleeding, but not on his couch.

"You are no fun Iggy. You liked it back then, just admit it" America said with a pout, a bit louder than usual due to his bad hearing.

"No I didn't. Why the hell would I?"

Sealand, bored by they bickering, sat on the floor in front of the TV and played with Americas Playstation( because he hated loosing and America had an advantage since he knew the games longer).

Their fighting ran out after a while and America said nothing more, loosing his pout after a while, and watched Sealand. A small smile appeared on his lips.

"It's like watching you grow up.." he said hushed.

England looked up from his tea, raising an eyebrow at him and then looking over to Sealand.

"I didn't grow up like that.." he said annoyed.

"Yeahyeah, war and things, explains a lot actually.." America said, still smiling. He turned his head and gave England one of his smiles that made England feel blinded. "But I like you the way you are now."

"America, let's go outside!" said Sealand loudly, apparently bored by the game, giving the spluttering England a chance to hide his spreading blush.

"Okay~" called said and jumped on his feet, rushing outside with the boy.
