Nordics x Reader - How to calm a Dane

   Why?

   Why did Tino have to give Mathias coffee? Sadly, you didn’t know. But you DID know that it was NOT a good idea.

   As you heard another crash come from downstairs, and a “YOU CAN’T GET AWAY FROM THE KING OF NORTHERN EUROPE, YOU STUPID BIRD!”, you laid your head on your desk, basically facedesking. Here you were, trying to work on a school assignment, and that stupid Dane was running around downstairs doing who knows what. Getting up, you made your way to the top of the stairs of your two story house that you shared with your older brothers friends.

   “Mathias! What in the world are you doing?” You yelled downstairs with your hands on your hips.

   He stopped at the bottom of the stairs, looking up at you with bright blue eyes. “I was trying to catch Mr. Puffin! The stupid bird said my hair looked like a porcupine, so I tried to grab him. But then he flew away! So I’m chasing him!” You facepalmed. Before you could say anything else, though, Lukas took his chance and grabbed the Dane’s tie, yanking it.

   “_____! Lukas is—ACK--choking me!” Mathias tried to pull the tie away from his
neck, gasping for air. You just rolled your eyes.

   “Did you ever think that maybe you deserve it, Matt?” You said with a smirk on your lips. Usually, you would help the poor “King of Northern Europe”. But since he has been annoying all 5 of you this past hour, you wanted to have a little revenge.

   Mathias’s eyes grew wide, and his face went pale. “B-but, you al—ACK—ways help me! _____!!!” You just laughed, stepped down the stairs, and gently put your hands on Lukas’s, which was your signal for him to let go. The Norwegian obeyed, but not before giving the Dane’s tie another yank. You mouthed a “Thank you” to Lukas, who just nodded and walked off.

   Mathias was now on the floor, gasping for air. You just smirked down at him, shaking your head. Once Mathias quickly recovered, he looked around, and saw Mr. Puffin on top of a bookcase. Mr. Puffin noticed this, because the next thing you knew, he said, “Hey, you stupid Dane! You still haven’t caught me yet!”

   And then it started all over again.

   “You damn bird! Get back here!” Mathias said, running after the poor Puffin. Mr. Puffin just let out a laugh of a caw and flew around in circles about the Dane’s head. Suddenly, you all heard a door slam open.

  “HEY, YOU DAMN DANE! SHUT THE HELL UP! SOME PEOPLE HAVE AN EXAM TOMORROW, YOU KNOW?! AND LEAVE MR. PUFFIN ALONE!” A pissed Icelandic yelled. You, Lukas, Mathias, Tino, and Berwald froze. Mr. Puffin, however, flew over to Emil, and landed on his shoulder.

   “Yeah, you damn Dane!” Mr. Puffin echoed. Emil just let out a puff of air and slammed his door closed again, taking Mr. Puffin with him.

   “Awww! Now what am I supposed to do? _____! I’m bored!” Mathias whined. You closed your eyes, trying to calm yourself down. Once you opened your eyes, you turned around, and gave the Danish man a glare.

   “Really, Mathias? Go play at Alfred or Gilbert’s house or something!” You yelled at Mathias. He just frowned.

   “But they have plans tonight.” You just rolled your eyes, and thought for a second for something the Dane could do. You blinked, and then a smile grew on your face. You knew exactly what to do. You walked over to the couch, sat down, and patted the seat next to you.

   “Here, Mathias, lay down and put your head on my lap.” Mathias eyed you for a second, wondering what the heck you were going to do to him. He reluctantly obeyed, and lied down, setting his head on your lap. You then took your pointer and middle finger, and started petting Mathias’s forehead in a soothing motion. You kept doing this until the Dane’s eyes closed, his face relaxing. You smiled a small smile, and kept petting his forehead.

   After a few minutes, you heard quiet snores coming from him. You held back a giggle, and looked up to see Tino, Emil, Berwald, and Lukas, staring at you and Mathias in awe. Tino had wide eyes, and his mouth was open. Emil, was blinking his eyes, as if it wasn’t real. Your older brother, Berwald, was smiling at the scene, finding it cute. Lukas, the emotionless Lukas, had his eyebrows raised in surprise, and eyes showing a tint of unbelief.

   “You actually got him to fall asleep?” Emil asked, in an amazed tone.

   “Apparently…” You said, not really knowing what to say. You just gave a small giggle as you looked down at the sleeping Dane. He looked so peaceful when he was sleeping. Too bad he wasn’t that way when he was awake.

   “We should do this more often.” Said Emil, still shaking his head, and still not believing what was happening. Lukas, Tino, Berwald, and you gave a nod of approval.

   “Definitely.”
