He sat there in the dark, watching him. Him laying in his bed, sleeping quietly. The smaller one just stood by the bed, frowning sadly. "I didnt think It'd come to this…But I guess I was never good with change." He shifted and looked around the room, taking in a shaky breath, fighting tears and loosing the battle. "I just feel this is best. You're so busy now with you're love and you're work…the child.." He spoke in a whisper not wanting to wake Him. "Spasibo..For everything..Spasibo for being my brother…Spasibo for always being there for me..Just..Being alive…Spasibo."
He sat down by the bed, the only light was from the moon, through the window behind the smaller one. The smaller ones Shadow on the wall by the door that was left open a crack.
"Im sorry…" He lowered his head. "Im sorry for being such a bother..for waking you up all those nights because of my own Problems. Im sorry for being such a child and being immature. Im sorry..for holding you back here when you wanted to go and be happy. Thats all I ever wanted was for you to be happy…You were the only thing keeping me here…" Tears poured down his face, silently, and fell onto the floor. "Im nothing…just a small, ugly little boy that follows you around. Im not even a real nation. And so many times, I've questioned life and why Im here and so many times I've thought of going, but you..You're the reason Im still here. I love you so much and all I want is for you to be happy. So I stayed…And tried my hardest to make you as happy as possible…And then He came along..and did my job for me. And now here you are..Having a family of you're own..Im so happy for you.." He smiled through the tears but It quickly faded. "I feel as though, now Im just getting in the way more…Always distracting you from you're work and child. Im sorry for that…I never meant to. I just wanted some time with you…And that seems to be such a challenge nowadays."
Outside the only noise, a dog barking in the distance and people shouting. They most likely just got out of a bar and all.
"Now it seems he's always around you, Its hard for me to talk to you when he's in the room. He always cuts me off and he comes first, right? And the child is always crying and needing something, when I finally have a moment alone with you. Its always ruined somehow. But I suppose I need to stop being a selfish brat and suck it up, eh? 'I need to get used to change'…I told myself that every night…and every night I cried myself to sleep. I cant get used to the change and Im sorry…Im so sorry." He lifted his head and wiped the tears. He reached into his pocket and took out two small boxes. One was a dark brown wooden box; his favourite music box that he'd always carry with him. He had given it to him when they were little. The other was a black box, inside held a diamond sunflower clip. He had bought it for Him, just never gave it over.
"You dont know how much I love you…You're everything to me. I've.. Worshipped..You for years probably..You're my life." His hand reached out and caressed the others shoulder gently, being careful not to wake him. The small one stood up again and kisses His head. "I love you, brother..My wonderful big brother..Goodnight."
And with that he walked out. Leaving Him to sleep. Leaving the moonlight, taking his shadow with him. Leaving the boxes on the bedside table. Leaving the tears on the floor and the ones that stained the blanket.
Leaving it behind…for who knows how long..
