Canada got up and went over to the door opening it. He blinked and stared disbelieving who it was. "A-Alfred!?" His head was reeling as the person he really needed at the moment was there. He still couldn't think straight as his thoughts were clashing. He was happy Al was there but at the same time he was angry at him. You couldn't answer my phone calls but you can show up here. why?
America gave him the cheeky grin he always wore. "Hey Mattie! Hey are you alright? Do you have a headache or something?" He gave his brother a worried look sense he started holding his head. Was he sick!? Was that why he wasn't at the meeting? Well the hero will surely fix that!
Canada blinked as he noticed he had been holding his head with one hand. He took his hand off his head. "Uh yea kind of" He was starting to wonder why he felt angrier that America showed up then he was happy. He didn't like it and it didn't help with his clashing thoughts at all.
America looked Canada over and noticed the blood on his face then noticed then hockey stick he was holding that also had blood on it still. He looked back at Canada. A normal person who didn't know their brother was a savage hockey player would have freaked out at see the blood but that became almost a normal occurrence after Matthew's hockey games. "dude you get into another hockey fight? Anyways sorry for showing up so late I would have been here sooner but for some reason my flight was delayed." He laughed slightly walking past Canada letting himself in ruffling Canada's hair as he did so.
Canada just stood there trying to think of what to do. He shook his head out then took a deep breath and laid the hockey stick against the wall not wanting to accidentally use it on America like what happened with Cuba. He then followed America to the living room listening to America talk.
"So why yah being so quiet huh? I mean I know always quiet but not THIS quiet. Also was that a new hockey stick cause I have never seen that one befo- what the hell is HE doing here?" America walked into the living room and immediately glared at Cuba. He was instantly in protective/Jealousy mode. He was protective because Cuba mistakes his brother the most and jealous cause. Why his Matthew alone with him! Oh wait he's not alone with him there's a floating kid in the room but matthew still let HIM over and ignored MY phone calls.
Canada sighed "He came over to visit Al it's nothing to worry about." he knew that look on his brother's face. He was jealous and it was obvious. He really didn't want to deal with his brother's jealousy at that moment. He was a little flattered by it but it really was unnecessary.
America turned to Canada coming up with his own conclusion as usual. "So what is Cuba the reason you weren't at the meeting? You've been hanging out with him all day huh?" He looked hurt as he made these accusations at his brother really hopping from him to denine them.
Cuba cleared his throat getting America's attention. "Look here America. I was at that world meeting all right. I came over here not too long ago. I came over to apologize to Matthew and that's it."
America glared at Cuba and Canada immediately got in-between them. "Al calm down please it's not what you think. He really did only come here to apologize." he looked at America with pleading eyes. He really didn't want him starting a fight. He didn't think he could handle it at this point.
America sighed and looked at Canada. "then why have you been ignoring my calls?"He crossed his arms across his chest raising an eyebrow at him.
Canada blinked and looked at him confused "What do you mean I haven't gotten a single call from you Al. So I have no idea what you're talking about." he was trying not to let the Anger he still felt get to him but it was hard since his brother was claiming to have been trying to call him when he didn't have a single call from him on his phone.
America sighed and grabbed Canada's shoulders a little hard then he planned. "How could you not! I have tried calling you at least five times today!" He was starting to get a little desperate cause this wasn't calming his fears.
Canada winced when America had grabbed his shoulders. He knew America didn't mean to hurt him but he did notice Cuba had tensed up and came closer. He listened to America then sighed not being able to fight the anger any more. "Al just stop it. Can't you just admit that you forgot about me yet again! It would be way better than having to listen to your lame accuses! You. You. Hoser!"
America blinked and let go of Canada hearing the hurt and anger in his voice. He was surprised at how much anger he heard. He was about to say something when he actually paid attention to the floating kid. Usually he couldn't see him and it was only every once in awhile that he could. But the minute he thought he saw him he looked at Canada then back at where Rivan was but he couldn't see him anymore. There was something about the kid that bother him but he couldn't figure it out. He did have a really bad feeling.
Canada looked at America then at where he was looking and noticed it was over by Rivan. He looked back at America with a questioning looking wondering if he could see him. "What is it Al"
America shook his head deciding not to mention it to his brother. "it's fine. If you really don't want me here then I'll just leave." he turned and headed for the door.
Canada watched him leave with an emotionless face not noticing the hurt in America's voice. Once the door slamming signaling that America was gone hit his ears he fell to his knees tears streaming now down his face. He blinked as he felt arms wrap around him and looked at Cuba as he spoke to him.
"it's all right master Canada…would you like me to go bring him back for you?"
Canada shook his head "no let him go. I don't need him anymore. I don't need anyone. He pushed Cuba's arms off him. He got up and whipped his face off then walked over to the hockey stick he had put by the wall near the door. "That's right I don't need anyone as long as I have this" he grabbed the hockey stick and a smirked slowly came across his face as without realizing it he had given into the sword. "Everyone forgets me. Even HE forgets me but no one will ever forget me again. Soon all they will see is me and my colors, red and white. Oh~ there will be so much red indeed~" He glanced at Rivan who had followed him and smiled at him. "I'm ready for my next victim"
Rivan had been staying quiet and out of the way the whole time America was there. He smirked as the hockey stick's influence was working perfectly. He had gotten nervous when America had looked at his direction and feared for a second that this was one of the times he had actually been able to see him. He sighed in relief and smirked when it seemed like he didn't. He grinned big when Canada had finally giving into the influence. He followed and Listened to Canada as he spoke. He walked up to him now back on the ground again grinning as well "perfect. You'll see this really is the best way to do this and I assure you that no one will EVER forget you again" he lead Canada back out into the living room and smiled at Cuba who just nodded back at him then paid Canada more attention.
Canada blinked at that and looked at him "C-Cuba can see you but I thought..." He was confused and worried. He didn't want Cuba to suddenly start paying attention to Rivan and not him.
Rivan blinked and smiled apologetically "oh right. Sorry. Once you cut them my dear Matthew they will be able to see me"
Canada nodded and started to go over a plan with Cuba and Rivan.
America sighed annoyed once he got back to his place. He went and plopped down on the couch. He grumbled to himself before rubbing his eyes deciding it was time to go lock himself in his room. he got up and went to his room shutting the door. He then took his glasses off and set them on the nightstand before falling face first onto his bed with his face in the pillows. He wrapped his arms around the pillow burying his face more into the pillow letting the tears that were threatening to fall finally fall. He laid there for a while then sighed as his phone went off. He sat up and rubbed his eyes to get rid of the tears as if the person on the other end of the phone could see him. He answered the phone and cleared his throat. "The hero speaking" he heard a sigh on the other end of the phone.
"What kind of greeting was that?"
America rolled his eyes "what do you want England I'm not really in a talking mood right now" He herd England a snort and figured he had just rolled his eyes.
"I just wanted to know if you have spoken to Canada at all"
America sighed as his grip tightened on the phone "why didn't you ask France?" Arthur was he last person he wanted to talk to at the moment.
"I did I just got off the phone with the bloody frog Al"
America blinked at England calling him Al and knew this was something very serious sense he rarely even uses his human name and using the shortened version meant business with him.
"And he said he hadn't gotten a hold of Canada and thought you might have been able to"
America sighed "well I just got home from visiting him not to long ago" he snorted and accidentally let a sniffle escape. He cursed at himself and hopped he hadn't heard that.
"…..did you two having another fight?"
America sighed again but didn't answer England. HE didn't think he had to know what was going on between him and his brother. That was their problem and they would work it out like they always do but that bad feeling still hasn't left. It was like something was off about his brother but he couldn't figure out what.
"I'll take that as a yes then…if you need to come over and talk….."
"NO! I don't need to talk about anything and if I did it sure as hell wouldn't be with you!" Alfred practically screamed then hung up on England then buried his face in his knees only to have England call him right back. He sighed and answered the phone sense if he didn't he would just keep on calling till he did. "don't you ever give up…." He listened to England sigh
"America it's not good or healthy to hold things in"
"says you" America puffed out his cheeks a bit but he did listened to England chuckle slightly then clear his throat as if to cover up the chuckle as him clearing his throat.
"well since you two had a fight perhaps that's why he's ignoring mine and Frances calls…but Al I'm serious if you need to talk about ANYTHING you can come over to my place"
America sighed not getting that England himself needed to talk with him about something. "All right. all right. I'll let you know if I do" He listened to England sigh again but sounded more annoyed that time. He then listened to him say he had to go then hung up. America hung up as well and sighed sitting there. He blinked suddenly remembered he thought he had seen Rivan. He got up and started packing as he called to book a flight to England. He didn't want to see England right now but he wanted to demand England to tell him about Rivan sense the last time he had asked England had ignored his question and just made fun of him for seeing things.
