Small Mistake (Children!Nordics & Reader)

Chapter 8

The car was going through different roads and empty streets, the only noises coming from those going to spend their evenings at pubs or clubs. Y/N had the way back to her apartment mapped out on the back of her hand, each street she turned was just another route she had remembered from previous journeys she had taken when she was in a hurry and didn't want to run into an traffic or road rage.

"We're almost home." she tried to think lightly of the situation; Poor Nordics. They had been taken out of their own home, probably feeling home sick and to begin with, not wanting to have anything to do with how they turned like this.

She felt bad for them, she would know what it felt like to be homesick, either with not living with her parents or living in her own place, she missed the comfort of her own home. She knew it would be her job to make sure that they all felt comfortable, with whatever that meant to make sure they felt happy.

All of her hope was starting to come around, with the familiar building coming into her peripheral vision. She beamed in relief, driving into the car park building underground the block of high tall apartment blocks.

She knew it was the best place to park, since it meant that the Nordics weren't seen in the public and were just hidden from those and any potential neighbours. "Right, is everyone alright?" she had shut the engine off and turned to them, seeing that Emil and Tino were fast asleep, Berwald was keeping an eye out for the small Finnish man/boy and poor Mathias had been staring out in boredom out the window.

"I guess so." Mathias yawned, stretching his small arms, "You sure don't waste time with driving do you? We got there in minutes." A glare was shot his way from the H/C haired female as he ignored it, "Right out we come. Ber, wake the others up will ya?" She stepped out, hearing a small, "sure" from Berwald's way.

She shut the door, Mathias getting out easily, as she moved to the other side, opening the door to seeing both Tino and Emil waking up from their much needed slumber. "Hey guys, how you feeling?"

"You don't drive very safely, other than that, splendid." Emil spoke as Tino shot her an apologetic look. She smiled, scoffing as she picked up the much small Icelandic boy into her arms, resting him on one hip, she grabbed her things that were essential as she locked the door, the other three following her.

"You guys haven't come to my place before, have you?" Y/N asked as they walked into the elevator, clicking the top floor button as the doors shut, beginning its ascent. "Not really. I think we went to yours for a Halloween party." Tino thought, as she nodded, "Well, I really hope it's clean enough for you. If I remember well enough, I tried to clean it up as much as possible before I left."

The elevator dinged to imply they had reached their floor, the doors opening as they stepped out, walking down the long hallway of many other doors of other neighbours. "It's just here." she said as she opened it with her keys, balancing Emil as it clicked and opened.

The light turned on as they all huddled inside, the four taking in the sight of the very clean apartment. "It's.... er..." Y/N thought they would feel disgusted by the mess (even though there was none), "Clean." Mathias beamed, "Very clean, It's nice, don't fret." He swatted a hand as he was the first to explore her place.

She sighed, placing Emil down as she went to her kitchen, grabbing a glass of water and gulping it down in seconds, "You don't look too well Y/N, you need to sit down." Tino spoke as Y/N nodded in agreement, her head sore from concentrating so much from driving, she was worried a lot about Arthur and how he was doing, as well as Lukas.

She glanced back at the others: Berwald and Tino were looking around her apartment, Mathias lounging on her couch and Emil was sitting on the floor. She sighed, checking her phone for if there were any messages, but there was nothing from anyone, not even the Brit.

"What do you want for dinner? Pizza?" She grabbed the pizza menu as she earned many 'yes's' from the guys, making her smile as she dialed the number.

The five had finished eating their pizzas, after watching many Disney movies. They had just finished watching The Little Mermaid (a decision made by Mathias) and Y/N was lucky that it was over since she didn't know if she would stay sane from hearing Mathias' singing.

She had told all the brothers to go to bed as soon as possible as she immediately received a call from Arthur, "Love, are you alright? How are the Nordic brothers?"

"They're fine. Jut gone to bed, but I'm more worried about you and Lukas. Is he okay?" She tiredly asked, "Yeah, he fell asleep not too long ago. Love, I must say we're getting to something quicker than we realise. We could get them to their usual selves quicker than we know."

"That's great news. When will we get them to test it out?" She asked, "We'll probably have to test it out on one of them firstly, maybe Lukas since he volunteered firstly. I wouldn't tell the others though so soon. They'll think it's best to get them all together and test it rather than with just one person."

"I know, I won't. It'll be difficult, but I'll try." She yawned as she earned a sigh from Arthur's side of the phone, "You're tired, well, we all are. Go to sleep now Y/N. It's been a long day."

"Wait! Artie, what was it like with Francis?" She quickly asked, but she got no reply at first, as if Arthur was contemplating whether to say, "I'll come over and tell you tomorrow. Right now, get some sleep, okay?"

She sighed, nodding even though he couldn't see her, "Okay, but you need to too." He chuckled, "Night Y/N."  "Night Artie." She switched the phone, as she went to go get changed into her nightwear. She knew that the Nordics were sleeping in her bed, so she grabbed a duvet and a spare pillow and decided to sleep on her couch, the song "You've Got a Friend in Me" from Toy Story playing softly in the background.
