A/N: This comes from the 100 themes challenge of Are you challenging me? This will be a multi-chapter story and I hope to post a new chapter every other day.
Day 1 The Challenge
The day had started out peacefully enough. America was making his usual pot of coffee which had caused England to wake up and start on his tea. Alfred was enjoying his first daily dose of caffeine until he noticed that Arthur was staring thoughtfully at him.
"What's up dude? You're off in space somewhere." Arthur smiled at him.
"Oh sorry. I was just wondering about how much coffee you drink in a day." This caused Alfred to pause and think. How much coffee did he drink in a day? After thinking about it for a few minutes he came up with a pretty good estimate.
"I would say about three pots of coffee a day."
"How in the hell are you not dead of a heart attack!?" Alfred grinned confidently.
"Because the hero can't have a heart attack duh. You're so cute for thinking that Iggy." Arthur glared at him.
"Don't call me cute idiot!" Smiling, Alfred stood up and hugged his boyfriend.
"Alright alright sorry. But still I can't have a heart attack because I'm the hero," After freeing himself from Alfred's grip Arthur stood up, grabbed the cup of coffee and the coffee pot and dumped the contents of both down the sink, "DUDE! What're you doing!? Are you crazy!?"
"No I'm trying to keep you from dying of a heart attack from too much caffeine." Alfred stared wordlessly.
"B-but... my coffee." Arthur sighed in exasperation. Alfred really could be so childish sometimes. Ok he could be childish most if the time.
"You won't die if you can't drink coffee. This is for your health."
"My health is fine, I swear!" Alfred immediately reached for the coffee pot, "Come on dude, give it back and let me make more coffee." Arthur shook his head and moved the coffee pot out of his boyfriend's reach.
"No." Alfred whined and put on his best puppy dog face.
"Pleeeaaasseee..."
"No Alfred now start acting like an adult."
"But I don't wanna!" Arthur smirked slightly.
"Well then I have no choice but to take the coffee away, since children aren't allowed to have it." Alfred stared at him incredulous before glaring.
"Bastard." Arthur sighed again.
"All I'm going to ask is that you go without coffee until the end of the week and then you can go back to having it. I just want you to see that you can live without coffee." At this point Alfred was not only glaring but plotting. If he had to go without caffeine then so did Arthur. He smiled evilly and walked over to Arthur, who immediately moved the coffee pot again.
"Ok Artie that's fine with me. But only on one condition. You have to go without tea for the rest of the week, just to prove that you're serious about the whole health thing." There was a pause as this new deal was considered before Arthur smiled back at him.
"Alright deal. I'll follow your one condition if it means that you go without coffee for the rest of the week." Alfred quickly kissed his boyfriend before grabbing the coffee pot and putting it on the top of the cabinets.
"Let the challenge begin."
