Show him that you see him and you'll have him all to yourself. Romano's words rang in America's head.

He sighed. The Italian was good at telling other people what to do about their problems. He didn't realize that it might not be that simple.

On the other hand, he had a point. There was no way Canada would like him if he thought he couldn't see him.

America paced back and forth in his living room. Canada was supposed to come over soon. It didn't matter if he showed his brother he noticed him then: he always did that when they were alone.

The door bell rang and America ran to answer it.

"Hey, Matt." he smiled.

"Hi, Al." Canada was carrying Kumajiro with him, as always. America envied that bear for a moment, before realizing how lame that was.

"So, why'd you ask me to come over?" the younger nation asked.

"I got this new video game from Japan and Tony won't play with me, so I called you."

"Oh." Too late, America realized his mistake. He made it sound like Canada was his second choice.

As America put in the video game and got everything set up he asked "So, what's up?"

"Not much." Canada looked away from him, a sign he was adding more in his head.

They played in silence for awhile. America wished he could tell what Canada was thinking.

Canada paused the game and looked at his brother. "You okay? You seem distracted."

Now's you chance, America thought. "There is something."

"What?" Matt was obviously worried. Al knew he sounded way more serious than normal, but he wanted it that way. He wanted Canada to know he was serious.

"I just wanted to tell you…" In an instant, America knew what he had to do. He had to show Canada how he felt. If his brother rejected him, he would deal with that later.

With that in mind, Alfred leaned forward and kissed Matt. He stayed like that for a few seconds, before slowly pulling away.

"I love you." America said then braced for Canada's predicted anger.

"I love you, too, Al." Matt surprisingly said.

"Y-you do?" Al was so happy he was stuttering.

"Yes, but you never see me when it's not just us, so I thought…" Canada trailed off. Then he shook his head. "I can't be with you if you don't notice me."

"I do notice you. I swear I do. I just pretend not to. I know I shouldn't and I'm really sorry I do. I promise I'll stop if you agree to go out with me. I'll stop if you agree to go out with me. I'll even help you get others to recognize you." Alfred didn't care if he sounded desperate. He was so close to winning, he would do anything.

"I'd like that. A lot."

They sealed their new agreement with a kiss.


America considered bringing Canada to the next meeting of the club, but decided against it. However, he did share the good news. Though nobody remembered who Canada was, they were happy for him.
