Poor America~

Chapter 2- Welcome to the World!

On a plane to London for the world summit

"Okay, you all remember what I told you, right?" America looked each of the four states that were with him in the eye.

"Da," Alaska smiled happily, glad to be going somewhere relatively warm for once. Not that she didn't like the cold, but being warm was nice…

"…Oui…Of course I remember, papa!" Louisiana rolled her eyes, her blonde hair perfectly styled, hands manicured. America could tell from the moment he'd found her that she would be a lot like France. "I am not as forgetful as certain other states (Pennsylvania).

"Yes, aru," California sighed. It wasn't that she didn't want to meet her parents, it was just she was so busy! She didn't have time for all this rushing around and meeting new people. Plus, America was so immature! He was over 200 years old, so why didn't he grow up?!

Virginia was sulking in a chair far away from her father. She had refused to talk or look at America. The other tree states were sympathizing with her. Although they all knew their mothers, Virginia was particularly close with hers and when they had broken all ties with England, she was one of the ones most hurt. She used to be very close to him, being the first bit of land England discovered in the new world… It was all so confusing for her!

"Virginia?" America looked over to her, his voice tentative. "Are you going to be okay?"

Her revolutionary spirit flew up, "OF COURSE! Why wouldn't I be?" She demanded defensively.

America sighed in relief. If Virginia was talking to him again, she wasn't too mad at him. "Just making sure…I'm just as worried as you are, you know."

"Who said I'm worried?!"

"No one. But they didn't have to."

America turned back to the window while Virginia thought. She didn't think about how America might be feeling about this whole thing. He was probably even more nervous than her… She didn't envy having to tell the countries they had kids they never knew about…

Damn. She'd have to apologize.

"…Sorry, pops."

"For what?"

"For sulking and being a spoiled child."

"Ginny…That's okay. You didn't have to apologize." America smiled at his daughter. He really did love all his kids. He understood what Virginia was thinking. He'd had to come to terms with it too, just a whole lot earlier.

Virginia smiled back, feeling just a little better about this meeting.

World Meeting Room

"Okay, If we hurry we should be the first ones there…Yep, Iggy hasn't put up the pictures yet so we're on time." America ushered his kids into a spacious meeting room and went about searching for chairs. The four states stood in the middle of the room, looking around curiously. There were chairs arranged in a semicircle around a podium up towards the front of the room.

"America!" Virginia called out to her father who had just walked in with a couple of chairs. "There are only 8 chairs here."

"Yeah, so?"

"Aren't there more than 8 countries?"

"Oh, yeah, of course! This is a G8 meeting. Um, guess the best way to explain it is that it's a meeting of 8 of the most powerful countries."

"Who are they, aru?" California looked up from her smartphone for once. America swore that it was permanently attached to her hand, because, seriously…she lived and breathed that thing.

"They are отец, Mother Russia, China, England, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan, da?" Alaska spoke up quietly and then buried her face in the light blue scarf around her neck.

"…Yeah," America said, "And... what's his name…Canadia…too."

Virginia rolled her eyes. "Honestly father! He's your very own brother and you can't be bothered to remember his name?! It's Canada. Can-a-da."

"Oui, papa…" Louisiana scolded, "Uncle Mathieu is important too, you know…"

America just grinned a bit. "Yeah, yeah…Any of you want some McDonalds?"

The states perked up after hearing that. Being America's children, most of them had inherited his tastes in food, much to the dismay of the others.

"Yeah!"

"Da, sure…"

"Oui, you know what I like, papa!"

"That stuff will give you diabetes aru…" California scowled at her family. "Would any of you like some vegan tasty treats?"

"…"

"…I take that as a no."

Many nods all around. California huffed and stalked off, muttering about diabetes and fat and global warming.

Honestly, America really didn't understand some of his kids.

Virginia was sitting near the door and was the first one to see the person walking toward the meeting room. "America, someone's coming!" She hissed.

America blanched. "England! You guys head into the next room while I distract him!" He waved at his children to get going.

The four states hustled into the next room while listening to their father talk to England. Uncertainty and fear were churning in each of their guts.

It was time.
