   Summary

   Set at the end of the Buon San Valentino episode
   Germany and Italy leave the restaurant and head to a quiet park to talk, and Italy tells him the story of his first love. Germany promptly faints. When he wakes up, he starts talking about a certain old broom he has.

   (Sorry I kinda got nothing when it comes to summaries, just look at the tags.)
