Corruption of the Free {Book 1}

Chapter 11: Mr. President

{~!!IMPORTANT!! - okay not really, but watch the video above. It isn't involved in the story, it's just a beautiful video. It's Scotland in his finest.~}

{~I know this is weird, but Trump is a good guy in this story, kinda~}

"I need you to explain yourself, America!" Trump yelled. The meeting was over, and the Russians and the American representatives left. It was just me and him. He was very upset by the sudden turn of events.
"What's with your attitude lately?! We could've became stronger if he was an ally!!"
"Then we'd get backstabbed."
"You need to learn to trust people!"
"Why do we need to learn if we would end up hurt?"
"How will you live up to your responsibilities as a country?!"
"Easy, don't live at all."
He sighed in defeat and rubbed his eyes. He finally looked at me and crossed his arms.

"America, tell the truth. Why are you cutting of you interactions except for three countries, why did you stop becoming allies with nations, why did you stop going to meetings?"

"Why? Why?! I'll tell you why!! Those bastards put my life through hell!! All I wanted to do was make them laugh and smile!! All I wanted was them to be happy!! That's why I pretended to be a hero!! That's why I did stupid things!! I wanted to make them laugh with me!! Not at me!! And you wanted me to befriend one of them!!" I had tears running down my face. My voice was loud for the first few words, but towards the end, my voice cracked.

"That's why I did those things, they were never grateful. They never cared. They told me to be serious. So I tried. But I was never good enough." I sobbed. My president wrapped my in a hug, and comforted me.
"I wanted them to smile because they were too serious. I wanted them to have fun. But I just made a fool of myself trying."
"It's alright America. But I need to tell you something that I have been hiding."
I pulled away from the hug and wiped away my tears.
"What is it?"
"Well, there is a world meeting soon this month correct? Well, it turns out that it is a meeting for both nations and leaders. Which means no one can miss it. So it turns out that we need to be there as well."
My eyes shot wide. A meeting for both nations and world leaders?! Now why the f*** do we need a meeting like that!?
I sighed. I know that since I'm a nation, we made vows to always attend a meeting like this. We have responsibilities we need to keep. And the meeting just so happens to be this year. I was very hesitant. If I declined, then I would be replaced, but that doesn't seem to bad though. But I still wouldn't be normal. If I found a true love if I was fired from being a nation, they would most likely die, since I'm still immortal. I found that out as a child.

If I went to the meeting, then definitely I would attract attention. Should I be in the middle of the stage with the spotlight, or should I suffer and mourn. Screw the countries, I'm an nation myself, might as well be show how serious the U.S can get.
I nodded slowly and my boss smiled. I can't believe this.

"B**** what the f*** are you doing?!"

I ignore the yelling demon on my shoulder, because if I talked back, my boss would think I'm insane. I see ghosts and mythical creatures, but I'd rather ignore that. It's so hard to not focus on them though. Damn England and his adorable little friends.

"Good, because if you'd decline, we would put you in that torture room again."

I gulped and nodded quickly.

I was told to leave the room, which I happily did so. I ran out of the room with my inhuman speed, and made it to my car. That's when something hit me. How should I explain this to Texas once I get back. Surely he would understand. But he would start a rant about Trump, unless I buy some ribs or some kind of meat for him to cool down. Yea, I should stop to a store before I go back home. It would be much easier for me. And at least he won't have to cook dinner.

I made it home in one piece, thank the lord. I had the food in my hand and knocked on the door. After a few moments the door opened.
"Oh! Alfred, your back!" He extended his hand and gesture me inside, kinda similar to what New York did, "So, how was the whole meeting."
"Bulls***."
"Ooohh... Straight to the point, must be really bad huh."
"Yep, he wants me to go to those kind of meetings."
I looked at him, and he had a twitching smile.
"Excuse me?"
"Those meetings, Texas."
He looked like he wanted to destroy the entire house.
"Whose idea was this?"
"Our boss."
"... I swear I-" He looked like he was about to punch holes in the wall. I motioned him to calm down.
"Anyways... I bought some meat! Something to eat for dinner, it's already cooked too."
He looked at me and knew I was trying to prevent him from destroying his home. He look away, and sighed, "Fine."

{~Forgot to mention, but he doesn't live in an apartment, he lives in a cabin in a meadow away from cities.~}
