chapter 19 : america

Phil's pov
I stole a quick glance at the person beside me which was america . Why didn't I notice him sooner ? But I noticed he was using a caped hood so it's explainable why I didn't I see him earlier , the man gave me my drink and I took a quick gulp of the liquid "woah , woah hold your horses" the man beside me who was ame said "which girl left you ?" Ame chuckled as I gave him a serious stare , eventually he stopped .

"So what's your name ?" He asked if I could tell he was bored . I paused for a second thinking for a name to hide my identity "Thomas" I said thinking one of the many popular names in the 1500's "which country are you from Thomas?" He asked as I gave no response to the American "you're not from this country right ?" He says as my eyes met his dark blue ocean eyes "your right" I gave him a smile breaking the stare "then which country are you from ?" He again asked as my brain was able to produce a non- existing country name "bryxton" I said "where is it located ?" He continued to ask another question "south-east Asia" I said as he gave a satisfied reaction.

"Let me introduce myself, I'm-" before he could speak I spoke for him "america" I said and gave me a scared look on his face "h-how did you know ?" He said "I could see you ." I said as he pulled the hood of his cape expanding it "I know who you are already, you don't have to hide" I say "it's not that-" before he could say something the door opened with the wind getting inside and some royal guards barged in "I'm not allowed to be here" he continued the sentence "stop ! Your father wants you home this instant !" America gave up and removed his hood "I've been staying inside those walls long enough" he says before grabbing my hand "what are you doing?" I said as I pulled my hand away from his "let's get out from here , I'm not yet done talking to you" he says as he again took my hand and was able to push the royal guards away before they could do anything. Ame dragged me outside and he ran so fast that I almost couldn't keep up , he was a lot faster than me .

The wind brushed through my face as water came with it and I realized it was about to rain , and it did the rain poured hitting my bare face and both me and ame realized that we've lost them , we've lost the guards but we didn't stop there we kept going until we reached a small house that looked like a cabin . The house was made with wood and i could tell it was old and probably abandoned "where are we ?" I asked as ame opened the door "this is where I go when I want to escape the walls of the place" he says

We went inside and the first thing ame did was set up a fire in the dire place. After a while ame was able to build a fire, he was able to get wood because of this place or should I say cabin stored wood inside. "Do you want anything?" He asked me as I shook my head "please use your voice" he says with a smile "nothing sir" I responded "please don't call me sir , just ame short for america"
I then started to get deja Vu moment because these were the exact words when america was in my country and we started to get to know each other "is there something wrong ?" He asked "nothing at all ame" I response as he gave me a smile.

"That's more like it" he says as we both sat down on the floor as we faced the fireplace "so where do you live ?" He asked "I don't live here , I just stay with a friend. I won't be here for long" I said "so what did you come here for ?" He asked "I came to visit a friend" I said watching the fire as it danced .

"How about you?" I said looking at him as he gave me that look , the look that he gave me that made me want to run miles for him "what do you mean ?" He says "you keep asking me questions when I don't get to ask you" I say "fine as all the questions you want" he chuckled with a smirk "is it true that you've been adopted by Britain and France ?" I asked a question that I already know , I know this is dumb but what else could I ask this man ? I knew every detail about him "how did you know that ?" He says surprised as I thought about a reason "there were rumors about that in my country" I said with a smile of nervousness.

"Well that rumor is now true" he says with his husky running through my ears "I was a boy , I was nothing. My mother died giving birth to me , my father abandoned me when I was an infant he also took my brother away from me and my aunt had no choice but to take me in but soon she was gone she killed her self. And I was soon in the streets, I was like a street rat but everything changed when great Britain found me and he adopted me . And there I was reading books and he said that I would get this country and become its leader but it wouldn't be easy" ame and I continued talking until the sun reached the sky and the fire went out .

~time skip~

I woke up in a bed and in the cabin where ame took me . Then I remembered Spain, he probably is now looking for me everywhere Wondering where I am this moment I slip on my boots and I was soon greeted by non other than the American "I need to go thank you for everything" I said in a rush "where are you going?" He asked "to my friend's house" I said "where can we see each other again ?" He asked grabbing my hand "we are not seeing each other again" I grabbed my hand away from the American "why ?" He question. "I'm going back to my country today" I say and left before he could say anything
