France paced his in living room in front of his kids.

He couldn't help but think.

Was breaking up with England the right thing to do?

Surely he had read the letter by now.

He was the nation of love so he knew that breakups brought pain. Was it right for him to just cause England more pain, not even a month after the death of their son?

He loved England, he really did, but honestly with everything going on, he just didn't know if he could stay in a relationship with the man.

Just not now.

France went to sit on the couch. He put his head in his hands and just sighed.

Why couldn't everything just be okay!?!

Why couldn't his son still be alive?

Why couldn't the Union have won?

France started to pull at his hair.

Why couldn't everything just be okay!?!

France tried not to sob, his children all looked at each other. They knew they should comfort him but didn't know how. After all, they were still trying to comfort themselves.

France got up and started walking upstairs. His children didn't follow, he walked into America's old room, sat down, and just leaned against the door.

He wanted to pretend that everything was alright.

That this was just some horrible nightmare he was gonna wake up from.

That America was alive and breathing and causing mischief like he always did.  

Tha- that his son was out exploring France with his siblings and was gonna come home soon for dinner.

But he couldn't.

America wasn't coming home at all.

"Daddy!!! Papa!!! Wake up!!" England and France woke up to see America jumping on their bed.

England slowly sat up, took his son into his arms, and kissed his forehead, "Good morning poppet, what in the world could be so exciting at this time of the day?"

France took America from England and started to fix his hair, "Yes, cher what could be so exciting right now?"

America smiled at them, "It's snowing!!! Come on!!" He jumped off the bed, threw the covers off of England and grabbed his hand, "Come on, let's go!!!"

England looked at France who was trying not to laugh, "Have fun, mon amour,"  He smiled before laying back down on the bed.

England resisted the urge to flip him off and turned back to America who was actually trying not to pull England out of bed with his super strength. "I'm coming love, I'm coming," He got up and started to get pulled out the room by America. 

He heard his boyfriend cracking up in the room.

England saw Spain, who was visiting with the Spanish colonies already outside with some of their other children.

England was able to get control of his feet and stopped before picking up America, "Daddy no!! The snow's out there!!!" He pointed outside.

He laughed as America pouted, "I know love, but we need to get dressed in the proper clothes first."

England walked downstairs to get America's coat, scarf, and other things needed. Once he dressed Alfred in the clothes and put on his own coat and shoes, his son took off running before coming back and  grabbing his hand.
