Hello! This is my first drabble collection, and as you could probably tell (but if you couldn't, no worries!), these drabbles are based on Florence + The Machine songs! So far, I have eighteen of her songs on my iPod, and so I'm guessing that there'll be about eighteen chapters/drabbles, unless I buy more of her songs! Anyway, the title of this drabble collection is "You've Got the Love," which is one of her songs, so I won't be basing a drabble off it, unless I get an idea! Also, I picked lines from the songs to base the drabbles off of, because I figured that it would be much harder to base a drabble off a whole song than to just base one off a line from a song. Anyway, here's the first USUK! On a side note, USUK, DenNor and GerIta will have more than one song and drabble!
No Light, No Light ~ "When it's over, you're the start."
Pairing: USUK
England fought in many battles in many wars, and before he had America, he always went home to an empty house, feeling like the war was still going on. Though a treaty had been signed to end it, there was nothing (or no one) to make him forget what had happened. The wars may have been over, but there was never a fresh start afterwards. All he could do was simply drag the past out into the present.
But that was until he met America. The little boy had immediately captured his heart, and he knew that he would never love another when the small colony chose him over France. England had long given up on romantic love, but he would smother America with brotherly love, and all the affection he had in his cold heart, though over time, his feelings became romantic.
For the first time in his life, when a war had finished, England didn't just carry on. No, he had a whole new way of seeing life. He had finished fighting a war, and to be honest, it was also to protect the little boy for as long as he could, and when America would jump into his arms, smiling happily, he wouldn't think back to the past full of blood and death and chaos. He would look to the future, a new start for him and America, though he reminded himself when he saw a grown America sleeping beside him that it wasn't a new start, because he was sure that his life had only truly started once he met the American.
For all you Florence + The Machine fans, I have a question! If you absolutely had to pick one song of hers that's your favorite, which one would you pick? I'd pick Blinding! Answer in a review!
