Matthew stood on the sand looking at Alfred with curiosity as Alfred stepped into the water holding a bottle with a message.

"Al, what are you doing?" Matthew asked.

"I heard that if you put a paper with your wish on it in a bottle and throw it in this sea, your wishes will come true! Isn't that neat!" Alfred said as he threw the bottle.

"Really Al? That can't possibly be true."

"Would my lord want to try?" Alfred asked as he smiled at Matthew.

"That's just a game children and peasants play, Al-" Matthew started but stopped when his brother's smile dropped and turned into a sad smile.

"I mean, you grant all my wishes already! Right Alfred?" Matthew said with a kind smile, trying to cheer his brother up.

Alfred looked at him surprised and smiled,"Yea!"

-End of Flashback-

Matthew put his cloak on and walked towards an ocean. A place he remembers well. He held tightly on a bottle he was given, a bottle that was given to him by the only person who loved him and died for him.

He pulled his pant legs up and walked into the water. He looked at the sky turning from blue to orange. Matthew remembered a memory from a few years ago.

-Flashback-

"So what did you even wish for?" Matthew said looking at the horizon changing from blue to orange.

"I wished that Mattie would grow a pair." Alfred said as he walked next to Matthew and helping him up.

"Al!" Matthew said, blushing as he punched Alfred.

"I'm kidding! I wished for Matthew to be happy forever and ever." Alfred exclaimed.

"For that wish to come true, you have to stay with me forever, then Al" Matthew said with a small smile.

"Huh?" Alfred said confused.

"I'm happiest with you Al." Matthew smiled wider

Alfred blushed and looked at Matthew to see if he was kidding.

"Really Al." Matthew assured.

Alfred smiled, "I'll be glad if I can do that then."

-End of Flashback-
"I'm all alone now, aren't I Al?" Matthew said.

"The life that I knew is now gone, and your not here with me." He whispered sadly.

"You were always there for me. No matter how selfish my wishes were, you always granted them." Matthew said recalling when Alfred had killed Prince Lovino's fiancé.

"Even if it meant sacrificing your happiness. Did you ever get mad at me?" Matthew asked to no one, remembering not knowing how much killing Antonio, killed Alfred inside.

-Flashback-

Matthew wondered his castle, bored out of his mind. He hasn't seen Alfred in awhile so he went to Alfred's room, only to hear muffled crying. The room to Alfred's door was opened and he looked inside to see Al crying into a pillow.

"I'm sorry, Antonio" Alfred sobbed into the pillow.

Did he know Antonio beforehand? Matthew thought.

Alfred lifted his head up from the pillow and rested his head on it.

He whispered, "I loved you too."

Matthew eyes widened as he teared up,

What have I done?

-End of Flashback-

"Please float away to Alfred, with all my regret and tears" Matthew said sadly as he kissed and threw the bottle into the sea.

"I hope this message gets to you Alfred." Matthew whispered.

"Why did I realize my sins, when everything was over. I could have saved you if I knew them sooner." Matthew said as he got out of the water and looked at the bottle floating away.

-Flashback-

"No!" Matthew screamed but no one heard for the crowd's cheers were louder.

"Oh it's tea time."

Swish

Matthew fell to his knees as he watch blood seep on the ground from the stage. He gripped the bottle his brother had left him with and cried.

-End of Flashback-

"Alfred" Matthew whispered.

-flashback-

Alfred laughed as he and Matthew happily ate a water melon.

-End of flashback

"I'm sorry" He said a tear ran down his face but soon after more followed and he fell to the ground.

-Flashback-

"Did Matthew have a good time ?"
Alfred smiled widely.

-End of Flashback-

"I'm sorry" Matthew screamed into the air.

"Please...God...please." Matthew sobbed as he stood up.

"Somehow in our next life-" Matthew started but was hugged from behind

"If we could be reborn again, it would be nice if we were twins again." A familiar voice said.

Matthew looked back and saw Alfred. He reached out only to have Alfred disappear as he touched him. He fell to his knees and cried.

----------------------------------------------

"Child, wake up." A voice said.

Matthew woke up and a women with long dark hair and tanned skin.

"I'm Native America, do you know who you are?" Native America asked.

Matthew nodded, "I'm Canada or Matthew Williams."

"Good, now Canada I want you to meet someone." She said as she moved to the side revealing an almost identical boy, Matthew froze.

"His name is-"

A tear ran down Canada's cheek.
