Mongolia, Russia, and China~

He sighs, "You worry about that brat too much."

"He's not a brat, aru. Vanya is very sweet and helpful around here...", furrows his eyebrows at the other, a lil annoyed.

"You just keep telling yourself that." Rolls his eyes.

Frowns at Genghis. "You're just as stubborn and bratty as when you were smaller, aru.", Yao smiles lightly, he starts grabbing out ingredients for dinner.

Russia, unable to fall asleep (as he actually was not tired), climbed out of bed, tiptoeing to the kitchen. He hid behind a wall, listening to the other two and making sure to stay completely quiet.

Yao starts cooking, not noticing that Ivan's spying on them.

"Hm? You don't say. You're the same as ever too." Doesn't notice Russia either, peeks over, "What is that you are cooking, Yao?"

Ivan watched the other two interact, though his eyes always strayed back to Yao, watching him cook. He felt a little sad; he was supposed to be cooking with Yao... but of course, that stupid Mongolia had to come and ruin everything, and make the place stink like horse shit. Ivan wrinkled his nose in annoyance, but then stilled in fear when a small, high-pitched sneeze escaped. He prayed the others wouldn't notice...

Whoops. He heard that. But he couldn't really make out what it was, he thought it was a sneeze at first but he knew Russia was asleep in his room so it couldn't be him...Could it? Mongolia turned towards the direction, "The hell was that??"

"We're making shumai and nuomici.", smiles, hears the sneeze. "Hm..? Bless you..?"

Ivan covered his mouth and nose, moving a little ways away from the edge of the wall.

" That wasn't me..." Narrows his eyes slightly, walking towards the wall to see what made the noise.

Turns and takes a step towards the hall. "Vanya..?"

Ivan panicked a little, not sure what to do. He would be caught if he stayed there, but there was no way to get back to the room on time without being caught, so that was pointless too! He had to think quick, and let his mind wrap around a little white lie before-- Russia squeaked with surprise when he saw the two Asian nations round the corner, and took a step back. "Y-Yao-Yao..!"

"Not able to sleep, aru..?", looks down at him worriedly.

His eyes flickered between China and Mongolia, before settling on Yao again, not liking Mongolia's expression. "N-Nyet..."

Do you want to help me and Genghis cook then..?", walks over and picks him up.

He doesn't want Russia to get involved at all, "Does he have to??" groans.

Doors a warning glare at Genghis. "If he wants to he can, aru."

Ivan was about to say 'no' to Yao's question, mainly because he didn't want to be around Genghis. But after seeing the Mongol's reaction, Russia decided to spite him. He wrapped his arms around Yao's neck, leaning back a little to look at him. "Uh-huh, Ivan would like to help Yao-Yao..." He gave the Asian a chaste kiss, then leaned forward, resting his chin on Yao's shoulder and smirking at Mongolia.

Yao blinks in surprise at the kiss. "I-ivan..!", Yao looks away do red.

"Da, Yao-Yao?" Ivan blinked, leaning back again to look at China.

So has a 'what the fuck, you are so dead' look on his face. Bl "O-Oi!" Glares at Ivan, "Is that the real reason why you woke up? So then you can come here and act all grown up and kiss him??"

Looks at Genghis confused then back at Ivan. "I-i...", frowns not knowing what to say.

Ivan blushed at Genghis's accusation. "N-Nyet, that is not it! I-Ivan just likes being around Yao-Yao, and Ivan couldn't sleep, so he came to see Yao-Yao!" He pouted, his dislike for the taller nation growing every second. "Why is Mongolia so mean to Ivan? You are always picking on me, and it's not fair..." His face turned a little more red, tears pricking the corners of his violet eyes.
