disclaimer: Hetalia's not mine and it will never be lest I will change the way history's written and let poor Iggy keep Alfred. XD;;
If I reached out to take you hands that time when you broke down in front of me, what would've happened?
Would it change what we are now?
Would we have avoided the unnecessary banters and disagreements we've had in the years that have passed?
Would we be like how we were before I became who I am now?
I've wondered, not for the first time, the possible outcome if I had done something rather than walk away, feigning complete happiness of my triumph against you while pushing back the thoughts of regret and sadness of separating from you.
You could've fired.
Then everything would've been over for me.
At that time you told me I'm an idiot. But even now I think you're the bigger idiot between us.
Why hadn't you done what you were supposed to do? You were known for your ruthlessness, and you were always alone because of that. But, that day, why couldn't you?
'There's no way I could shoot you.'
You had the softest expression when you said that. But at the same time, I saw the overflowing sadness coming out as tears. I couldn't say anything nor could I do anything but watch as you cursed and asked why it had to be this way.
I felt guilty. You were nothing but kind to me. I also don't know why it came to that point. We didn't want it, but the people did.
Perhaps we can just mark it off as the inevitable.

a/n: I know it's glaringly short. I apologize for that! Earlier today, I was watching a few hetalia MADs and I came across one that showed the American revolution. Iggy's my favorite character so I always feel bad for him when I see that strip/scene. And so I decided to write something for Iggy~ weird enough, it's in Alfred's point of view.
R&R~! thanks!
