Can't Sleep Love (Heartbroken!America x Sweet!Reader)

1 - Heart break

"W-what!? But why Stacey!?" The American held back his tears hoping that this was just a joke, this can't be happening again.

"I'm sorry Al, but I can't stand to be seen in public with you anymore." The girl looked the other way when seeing his hurt expression. "I-I'm in love with Richard. He takes me out and treats me like an expensive lady."

Alfred didn't think he could get any more hurt, Richard was one of his team mates on the college football team. How could he go behind his back like this?

"Tell me...on our anniversary when you said you were sick and couldn't come meet me....we-we're you.." He couldn't even finish his sentence for fear it'd come true. She nods her head. "I was with Richard." Stacey looks up at him, "look we had a good year. It was fun at first but I've got to move on." One last kiss to his cheek and she starts off, up and out his life. "Goodbye, Al. I wish you the best."

Crack.

Shatter.

Another girl out his life and taking a part of his heart with her. It's been the same routine since high school. He doesn't even know what he's doing wrong anymore. First it was the way he ate, then he was to loud, then the way he dressed, and so flipping on! He's so tired of falling in love with these girls that just take from him and leave!

"Love is a messed up game." The flowers that were bought for his girl would now be trashed, they can die like his heart has for the millionth time. He walks off knowing where to go when crushed like this. His best friend always knew just what to do when he is like this. Alfred thought about texting her first yet he couldn't bare to look at his phones screensaver of him and his NOW ex.

Knock.Knock.Knock!

BANG!

"(Y/N)~ I broke the door again~." He sighed and grabbed the tape that was left by the door and attempted to fix it. It was still messed up but he did a good enough job with fixing his accident..that happened 5 out of the 7 times he came to her apartment. Why she didn't just give him a key was beyond him.

Oh wait?

"Crap, forgot." He pulls a gold key out his pocket and facepalms feeling stupid for the second time today.

Baby blues look up to see a (S/C) skinned female coming downstairs while brushing her (H/C) hair humming a tune. All stops when her eyes meet his, then look at the taped door, and back to him. "Alfred, again!?" He tried to laugh it off knowing he'd have to pay for it but after being broken up with again he lowered his head. "What are you doing here, Alfie?"

He looked up into your kind eyes with tears forming in his own as he tried to choke the words out, it hurt like it does each time. The woman he thought loved him was only using him.

Understanding this look he watches as you come up and hug him to which he doesn't hesitate and hugs you back. You're his best friend even through their college life he always came running to you to cheer him up when he was broken down. "You'll find a better girl. You're to good for her."

He cries into your shoulder since no words would come out his mouth he couldn't handle loosing the one he thought loved him as much as he loved her. You pulled away from him much to his dislike and smiled at the American. "Go sit on the couch I know just what to do."

Ushered to sit on the soft couch he tries to wipe his tears to stop the salty substance from falling to far however heartbreak was a bitch. Alone he sits for about six minutes till he hears you rushing back to him with arms full of goodies. Chips, ice cream, soda's, and candy. "Pizza will be here in fifteen. Let's watch Superman vs. Batman. After we can watch the Avengers movie series."

He adored your sweet heart. Honestly he doesn't deserve a friend like you always going out your way to pick him up after he falls. Even in school you'd always cheer him up. Any time he was down there you were to smile and hold your hand out picking him up.

"Thanks, (Y/N)..you're to kind dudette." He smiled some looking over all his favorites right there on the table before them. As you picked the movie and selected start he got into it real quick. "Dude! Batman's suit looks so badass!"

Unknown to him at times throughout the movie you'd stare at his expressions. You've loved him since high school times however never had the heart to confess because he's your best friend, oh and he's ALWAYS taken! You swore he was barely single for a week before claiming to be in love. They last a few months and break up. This last chick was the longest.

By the end of that movie you two were laughing and stuffing your faces. No matter how things turned out you only smiled and hid away your feelings deep down in your heart not wanting them to come to the light and be seen by the handsome, blue eyed, Alfred. Curse his smile.

You tuck the silly boy in as he'd passed out on the couch making sure to give him the softest pillows you have. All done tucking him in you head on up to your bedroom and get comfy.

~*Dreamworld*~

Alfred was having dreams of being left by Stacey again, hurting his heart but when seeing (Y/N) show up he felt better. She really was his best friend.

As soon as he goes in to hug her she pushed him away. "Don't come near me Jones!" Left in shock he stares down at her.

"Always using me to make YOU feel better? When were you there for ME!? Pathetic, dumped again huh? Fucking grow up!" You shove him aside and walk off happily hugging another guys arm. "Do me a favor and loose my number Jones."

"(Y-Y/N)! No I'm sorry! I'm sorry I was a bad friend don't leave me!" He whimpered. "Not you to!"

But you did....you left him all alone.

The dream shatters like glass .

~*End*~

He shot up from his sleeping position gripping at the sheets. "(Y/N)!!"

Said girl comes rushing downstairs with a bat shakily in hands and flustered, bed head a mess. "What happened Alfie!? Bugler!?" (E/C) orbs look around a few times ready to whack someone foreign if they cross her path.

Alfred stares at your form rushing up from the couch and tackling you in a bear hug rubbing his cheek against yours while crying. "(Y/N)~~! I had an awful dream that you didn't want to be friends anymore! I'm sorry I'm a bad friend!"

You made a note not to let him have pizza cheesecake before bed.

"It's okay Alfred. You're a great friend! Who else would save me from crippling boredom? With you around it's always fun, you're the Hero right?" You knew that he liked being called that for reasons you understood after finding his superhero comic collection and posters. "My Hero."

Somewhere in his chest something flutters hearing you call him your hero. Were you being honest? Was he really your hero? If anything he knew he took you for granted, always expecting you to just understand and crash at your place to cry and recover.

Still, you accepted him with open arms.

Always you.

Your smile welcomed him no matter the condition.

He pulls away from you to let you breath after your murmurs of 'needing air' which he felt bad about knowing his strength.

"Alfred, are you feeling alright?" His face was completely flustered. To test the waters you place your hand on his forehead making him jerk back.

He didn't know what this rapid flutter in his chest was coming from, it's never happened before around you. Not even Stacey.

You stare at him and shake your head assuming he was just out of it again. Off you go to cook some breakfast unknown his eyes were watching your every move. It wasn't till your eyes met his that he turned to go clean up his sleeping area.

Love was a terrible thing that he didn't want to go through again.

At the same time he wished to have that one person he could love and trust. That person he could hold and laugh with.

This new fluttering in his chest must be a mistake.
