6SuperSailorCharon: So I've decided to start a series of silly little one-shots featuring the Hetalia characters featuring funny situations I could see the countries in. My OCs from American Dreamgirl will not be making an appearance, but I might feature some of my favorite pairings. I might not add the 2Ps or Nyotalias since I don't know much about their personalities. So here we go!
Germany, Japan, Italy, France, Russia, China, America, and England all decided to go out to eat one night at a very fancy five-star restaurant in New York City. America loved it when the other countries visited him at his house and he usually spared no expense in making sure the others had a great time. So on this particular night, the eight countries had all enjoyed a luxurious meal and now the bill had arrived.
"Nein! Ve are splitting the bill equally!" Germany decided.
"Prease, Germany-san," Japan insisted. "I do not mind paying for everyone's mear tonight."
"You guys worry about the bill," America said. "I'll get the tip."
"I didn't know that people tipped in America all of the time," Italy pointed out.
"Yeah, aru," China pointed out. "We don't tip at my house because everything is so expensive already!"
"Dude, it's just the right thing to do!" America pointed out. "Some waiters here in America don't make any money at all except for tips!"
"Why should we tip ze waiter?" France asked with his nose up in the air. "He forgot to refill my wine twice!"
"That's probably because you're acting like a belligerent drunk, you bloody frog!" England retorted.
"Well, at least I can hold my liquor better zhan you can, Black Sheep of Europe!" France said pretentiously.
England and France began to bicker about who-knows-what while Japan paid the bill. Italy was ecstatic that he didn't have to pay his share. America scribbled down something on a blank check.
"Hold on America, how much do you plan on leaving, da?" Russia asked. But America didn't answer him. America signed his name "Alfred F. Jones" at the bottom.
"You guys have a wonderful night," the young waiter said as he came by to collect the bill.
"Wait, dude, I wanna give you your tip in person," America said, handing the waiter the check and patting him on the back. The waiter's eyes widened and he nearly collapsed upon seeing the number of zeros. He started to cry.
"Oh no! America-san! You insulted the waiter!" Japan gasped in horror. At his house, tipping was considered a huge insult.
"No way, Japan, dude!" America said proudly. "I left him enough money so that he'll never have to wait tables again!"
"Wait, America! How much did you leave him?" Italy asked in shock, enough so that his normally-closed brown eyes were now wide-open in surprise.
"Just two and a half million dollars," America said casually as the waiter continued to shed tears of joy.
"Nein! You were not supposed to leave that much!" Germany bellowed. "Five percent should be enough!"
"Bloody idiot!" England snapped.
"What?" America asked. "It happens all the time at my place. Sometimes some really cool rich person will leave a waiter a humungous tip that changes their life! I thought it'd be totally awesome if I did that tonight while all my friends were visiting!"
"For such an ignorant country, you certainly have ze heart of a French noble, oui!" France complimented.
"Well," England sighed reluctantly, "I suppose once in a while you know when to do the right thing." He didn't want to agree with France out loud, but he could admit that for a country who didn't sense the mood, America could sometimes be the most generous country in the world.
Everyone in the restaurant stood up and applauded, and the waiter never forgot the kind personification that changed his life forever.
