Hey guys! It is time for another "state" chapter! I gotta tell you, I'm starting to run out of ideas for these "state" chapters but we'll see what happens in the future haha. Bear with me okay? Anyway, here is the chapter, review if you want and thanks for reading.
Ch. 20.5: Virginia's Emotion
(Year: 1871)
You know, visiting every state was getting to be pretty exhausting for America. He was always having to travel a hundred miles here or there and then after traveling that distance he had to actually find the f-ing state! And that was a bitch. So instead of doing all of that crap, he got his old pal Richmond to help find Virginia. Richmond's eye was still healing but the relationship between the two were a lot better since the Civil War. They hung out every couple of weeks or so.
"Hey Richmond! Ready to help me find Virginia?"
"Yep, I got everything for the trip! Now follow me. He's around here somewhere. His house is pretty cool. It's kind of like Thomas Jefferson's house but without the mixed children since...well you know…"
Yeah if you didn't know, Thomas Jefferson made babies with his slaves. Yeah...There's your third president for ya…
"I don't need to know the details again bro haha. Let's get going!"
And so the two headed out into the city of Richmond. It was almost completely re-built after the war but there were some places where it was complete shit. Back to the two guys, they looked and looked and finally found the state's awesome house in the outskirts of the city. The two walked up to door of the house and knocked on it. As soon as their hands left the door, it immediately opened to reveal a beautiful girl with blonde hair and blue eyes. She had a pin in her hair and she wore a blue dress that sparkled every time the sun hit it. You could say she looked like Alice from Alice in Wonderland.
"I knew I would see you two together one of these days…"
The girl said with a nonchalant look. She flipped her hair and moved out of the doorway.
"Come in."
She told them. America and Richmond walked in the home and Alfred turned to look at the girl.
"Do I get a hug from my own state? Hmm?"
He asked with his arms held open. She gave him a look and rolled her eyes with a blush.
"Pshh...You're lucky you're cute…"
She whispered as she gave him a hug. He smiled and held her tightly as she felt herself do the same.
"It's nice to meet you! I'm-"
"Alfred. I know. I'm Sophia. I don't care what you call me though. So I heard Richmond here caused you a lot of trouble a few years back huh?"
She asked, glancing at the capital of her state. Richmond glared at her and crossed his arms with an annoyed look. Alfred shrugged his shoulders and smiled.
"Nah, I'm just glad everything is okay now. But how are you? What do you like to do? How old are you? What's your favorite-"
Sophia put her finger over his mouth and he stopped talking.
"You need to calm down."
She giggled with reddened cheeks.
"...I can tell you all of these things later. But I do want to ask you a question. How the hell did you not know we existed in the first place? Don't you have super country powers or something? Seriously…"
She muttered. Alfred gasped and threw his arms out.
"You guys never told me! Why didn't you come find me!?"
"I honestly thought you knew I existed…"
She said with a smirk.
"That's bullshit!"
Richmond screamed in the background.
"Shut the hell up Richmond! Gah! You're so annoying!"
Sophia yelled at him before sighing at America.
"I'm just playing, I just wanted to see how long it would take you find me. Took you long enough I guess. But I'm glad you finally know. Now you can help me go shopping and help me pick out dresses for my festivals!"
She screamed in excitement that she hadn't showed until now. Richmond's face twitched in horror at the thought of ever doing that with her but Alfred only grinned a sweet loving smile at her.
"Sure! That sounds like fun! I would love to!"
He said. Sophia smiled big and glared back at Richmond.
"He's my new favorite."
"You never even liked me in the first place!"
He yelled back to her.
"Yeah well...Hehe."
She giggled. She turned back to America and gasped, jumping up in the air. Alfred gave her a weird look but smiled nonetheless. She sure was excited when she wanted to be. That was for sure. She stopped jumping and her smile turned into an emotionless look as she thought about something. Alfred tilted his head and looked at Richmond in confusion. The state shrugged his shoulders and Alfred had to snap his fingers in front of Virginia to get her to say anything.
"Oh! I'm sorry, I was just thinking! Have you met Maryland yet!?"
Alfred shook his head.
"...Well she's like my best friend and I want to be the one to introduce you to her. Not someone like Richmond! Yeah screw you, you little fart!"
"Hey!"
He yelled. She laughed and grabbed Alfred's arm as they headed out the door. America laughed and just went along with it. Here we go again…
And that is the end of the chapter! Like I said, you can't expect much from these chapters but they are kind of cute lol. Thanks so much for reading and go on to the main chapter!
