This is just a preview. I'm going to update once enough happens to really get a story going. But review, and favorite so I know I am doing something worth while.
His world was turned upside down. He knew it was going to happen. He knew what his citizen was doing. But he couldn't stop him. How could he? What was his job? Protect his reputation, or his own people? He knew he was different from the America everyone came to know and love. But he was only doing all this, no he was only allowing all this to happen to protect his people. Right?
Because his government wouldn't let the spying happen, unless it was done to protect the people...but now everyone is mad.
Everyone.
There were talks to sanction The United States. What was he going to do? Alfred didn't recognize himself anymore.
He had the power as a nation to extradite Snowden. The perks of being the living country, he could literally just go to Russia and drag Snowden home. But Alfred wouldn't do that. No. He was confused. He can't bring him back against his will. That goes against everything he stood for.
He asked Ivan to take care of him, knowing that he wasn't going to bring him back. He hugged Ivan, knowing that once the world found out that Snowden got asylum, Alfred would most likely never see Ivan again.
That there was a chance relations could end up frozen.
But Alfred was willing to take that risk...to protect his people.
