Just another boring meeting. Can Alfred escape the boredom?

A short writing prompt I made based on this pintrest image (see cover)

Every year, America had a tradition that he would always remember. No matter how much pain it caused him...

Everyone has a breaking point. And Alfred Jones, the personification of America, never thought he would have reached his. Maybe it was the of the insults that he used to brush off as a joke. Maybe it was his poor economy and how the people of his country thought. Maybe it was because of his human-like emotions and that fact that he couldn't keep up the hero facade. But when everything comes tumbling down, Alfred spirals into things he never thought were possible.

When England, Prussia, Austria, and Spain start complaining about raising children, America decides it's about time to introduce them to the states.

A month has passed since the last World Meeting and America's depression is getting worse. Everything has gone to hell. He's ready to end it. He does. His chair is now untouched and stays at the exact same spot in the meetings to come. Days pass without the jolly personification of the U.S. Two years later, a teen named Alfred Jones encounters England and Canada in a stunning chain of events. Despite the fact he is still quite young, he sees things people his age would never begin to think. As the other nations meet the odd boy, what will happen? Why does he look so much like America? Did America ever die? It all started with a lie.

America - The bubbly, happy, hamburger loving nation. A guy like him can never be upset or down... Right? It's hard to be happy when everybody is against that. It's also hard to love yourself when it seems like nobody else loves you. {Note: **TRIGGER WARNING!!! There is a lot of stuff dealing with eating disorders, possible self harm, and possible mention of suicide!** Ps: I don't have depression or an eating disorder or anything, I've just done research on it!}

Alfred is at a meeting being the hero as he calls it, then something happens... Just your average hetalia meets states story! TW: Confederacy, annoying states

Alfred, who has been told to shut up and grow up all his life, fears the scary and powerful Ivan. But to prove he is strong and to protect his friends, he attempts to face his fear. Ivan, a lonely Russian whose immense power has caused him to be very lonely and feared, hates the childish actions of Alfred. But what happens when they are stuck in the same house with each other for only heaven knows how long? Read to find out! This is a America x Russia fanfic of the anime Hetalia. I do not own hetalia nor the characters, but I do own this story. PS I use human names and hints of yaoi but nothing serious. ~Edit~ I finally updated the cover xD I didn't like the old cover, so I fixed it :D thanks!

America is generally seen as a lazy country with a large appetite, very little intelligence, and a very large ego. Ame is perfectly happy with those titles, he spent years building that mask. But one day, ame's mask crumbles in an argument with the United Kingdom. Now he can't hide the truth of his biggest lie anymore, why doesn't he trust his own friends with the truth? Why won't he show any real emotions? And why is he crying black tears..?
