A/N: Another sad drabble, this time with England.
A smile crossed my face and heart swelled with happiness because she's here in my arms. Even if it's just for a fleeting moment, I am happy to have her with me tonight. Even if after this, I'll never see her again, I'll never get to hold her in my arms like this again, she'll be gone forever.
But I banish all the weary thoughts in my head and focus on the present. For now, I'll forget the fact that I'm a nation and an immortal; and she, who is my queen, my sovereign and a mortal woman. For this moment, I'll just focus on the fact that we are a married couple who loved one another deeply, till death do we part.
I let myself get lost to her taste, her scent and her touch. I love her so much, that it scared me; I've never felt this way before. I loved her so much that just thinking that one day she'd slip through my fingers as time goes by scares my whole being.
The thought alone drove me crazy. It makes me want to lock her up in a tower and never let her go. Now, I know how that frog felt with his so-called saint. I'm afraid to lose my beautiful Lizzie, my love, my heart, my life.

Centuries have passed and my Lizzie had since long gone, I still visit her every year, and I always try to summon her soul just so I could see her again even if it's just for a second. I always failed and I've never seen her since her deathbed. Looking back, I knew from the very first day I've met her that she'd make a lasting impression on me, and she did. After her, there's no one that had replaced her in my heart; and although there are a few women that's named after her that became my sovereign, none of them had matched her strong pride, her courage and her inner strength.
I had heard from the frog that she had found his saint in his own country no less, to visit the place where she had once resided back in her old life. The frog said that she doesn't remember him; she just looked at him like some random guy. But he said that she still had the same personality as before, she looked pretty much the same as well, he said. But she's America's citizen, something that we both regretted because we know how childish the git is. Frog said that even though that is the case, he's glad she's in a better place now, even though it's not by his side.
I envy the frog for managing to see his beloved for the second time. I wish I could see my Lizzie too, even if she doesn't remember me, I'll take my chances.
