THE BALMORAL AU[COUNTRYHUMANS]

Chapter four. Phone Call?

It was pretty late that night and Canada was just putting his kids to bed with his husband, Netherlands. They had just recently gotten married and had adopted their two children together. Canada wrapped an arm around him as they left their children's bedroom together leaving them to sleep peacefully " Ah... this is amazing Canada, we're finally married and we have two kids we can take care of. its great it really is. " Neth said and Canada smiled in response to that " yeah it truly is great isn't it dear? " Can said and Neth yawned.

" you should really get to bed neth, don't worry i'll be up for a little while longer so if the kids need anything ill be right here ok? " Canada spoke softly as he nudged Netherlands with a smile soon smooching them on the cheek. Netherlands nodded and soon after that went to their bedroom to go lay down. 

Around 2 hours later after Netherlands and the kids fell asleep Canada was sitting on the couch with a small box in his hands, opening it there were a few photos in there he liked to constantly look back on... They were of him and america when they were younger, ooh it'd be years since they talked let alone hang out, last he heard from him was if he were correct was the last time they hang out. and that was all the way back when they were in their late teens.. he hadn't really been on the right track since high school really, he was always getting into trouble or getting into some new rock. always some new fix. 

Canada shook his head. " is he even still alive..? " he whispered to himself as he rubbed the photo in his hand with his thumb and then....

R I N G!       RING! 

" huh? who could be calling at this hour? especially the house-phone too? " Canada said as he heard the home phone in his house suddenly spring to life,  Standing up he went to said phone and picked it up

" Eh? Hell-loo, this is Canada! "

The voice on the other end was quiet for a moment maybe in shock? but when they finally responded their voice was shaky " Canada..? " It was america.

Canada nearly dropped the phone, now he himself was in shock... " Am-AMERICA? is it really you?! what the--- where have you been? why haven't you ever called! i've been so worried about you! " .. . . America was again silent and then he spoke " you-- were worried about me? "

" OF COURSE I WAS WORRIED ABOUT YOU!! your my family! family always cares about family Ame! " more silence.... and then Can heard it, the sound of someone starting to cry. America was crying? why...? something must be very wrong. " america what have you been doing.. ? where do you live? "

America spoke slowly " i .. i got evicted,,, today. "

Canada hearing this, his heart sank. what could he have done to get evicted? whatever that doesn't matter, he's gonna have to go pick him up. " listen i'm coming to get you right now, where are you? " America was hesitant " wait what? you don't um have to its fine! i can just get to a shelter or an alleyway.. " Canada shook his head over the phone. 

" No. absolutely not, i'm not letting my family sleep in an alleyway now, where are you? "

America didn't know whether to be thankful or fearful that his cousin was coming to get him but maybe it was all gonna be okay.. " Alright.. i'm uh at Sal'ls tapper.. by the pay phone "

" i'll be over soon stay right there. "

Canada hung up the phone and sighed, what was neth gonna think of all this, whatever like he said family cares about family no matter what. so he grabbed his keys and headed out the door, he was going to save america, even if its from himself.
