" Me too, America. Me too."
*chapter start*
It was about a week later and England and America were about to leave. Japan has made incredible progress but he still is not well enough to get out of bed quite yet. So, he is going to be left in Greece's care. America has planned to go to Europe so he can clear everything up there. Then he'll return home and help his country recover from the war.
"You sure your going to be ok without us?" England asked Greece.
"Yes. Don't worry about us. I'll take care of Japan. You go handle things in Europe." Greece replies sleepily.
"Alright then. If you're sure you'll be alright I'll be on my way..." England began than turned to America, "Come on America. Let's go. We have a lot of things to explain when we get back."
"Ok. Let's go than. Bye Greece, say bye to Japan for me. Take care of Pochi(Japan's dog) and the cats. Don't work yourself to hard. Lates bro." America says and walks out the door.
"Wait America. We're supposed to go together. Remember?... Well I better go after him. Who knows what he'll get care old chap."
"Bye. You take care too. Don't let the other countries push you around. Don't worry about things here. I've got them. Go back to your country. I know they need you. " Greece responds.
England walks out the door to find America waiting outside for him.
"Sorry dude. I just couldn't stand being in there any longer." America explains.
"That's alright, America. I know you still feel guilty about it. Japan, seemed to forgive you though."
"Ya. I guess. Let's just go. I want to get out of here. I stand looking at it anymore."
"Alright. You know you have a lot of explaining to do once we get to Europe. Right?"
"Ya. Ya I know. I messed up and now everyone's mad at me."
" I know. Whatever happens, I'll be with you. So don't worry alright. I'm sure we can clear everything up if we work together."

They were now in London. England organized a meeting with all of Europe, China, Russia, and Canada that would take place in a few days time. For now England planned to help America get himself back together emotionally. America was still really upset and England was worried he might be falling into depression. He didn't want that to happen. He wanted the cheerful, loud, energetic, obnoxious America back. He was willing to do anything for that to happen. He was walking to the room he left aside for when America decided to visit. It was the same room that America grew up in. He knocked on the door.
"America are you in there." England asked worried.
America has been in there for hours, ignoring everyone.
"Go away." Was all he got in reply.
"America, come on let me in. I need to talk with you."
"No."
"America please."
"No way."
"America. I know your upset right now. Please let me in. I want to help. I'm worried about you."
That got America up, slowly walked towards the door and opened it.
"You were worried about me?" He asked.
"Well you locked yourself up here for hours, not once coming out for food. Why wouldn't I be worried?" England answered.
"I'm sorry dude. I didn't mean to make you worry about me. I just wanted some alone time to think."
"That's quite alright America. I just wanted to chat with you is all."
"Ok. What did you want to talk to me about."
"Go in and sit down. Then I'll tell you."
America did as he was told. He sat down in one of the chairs around the table that was put there for times like this. England sat in the other chair.
"Alright America, I've scheduled a meeting for a few days from now. All of Europe along with China, Russia, and Canada will be there. So before then we can hopefully talk things through. Hopefully we can work something out." England stated.
"Ok. What kind of things?"
"I've been worried about you lately. You haven't been your normal self since what happened with Japan. I want to help you get back to the way you were before. I want the overly happy, loud, obnoxious America that annoys the hell out of me back."
America didn't know what to say. He was shocked. England was always trying to make him more of a gentlemen. So why would he want the old America back?
"Wow. I didn't know you felt that way. Again, I'm sorry for making you worry dude. I just can't forgive myself for doing what I've done. Not just to Japan but to you as well. I've been an asshole to you and all you've been trying to do is help."
"That's alright America. I forgive you. It's all in the past now. I'm sure Japan forgives you as well."
"How do you know that?"
"I had a talk with hime before we left. He doesn't hate you for it. He just doesn't like what the weapons did to his people. He said he'd willingly be friends with you again when your ready."
America started tearing up.
"I don't deserve this. I don't deserve any of this. I've been such an asshole to you guys and all you do is be nice to me. Why?!"
"Well, because you have a lot of potential. You are nice when you want to be and an excellent friend when it comes down to it. Your strong, powerful and you have a good sense of justice. Sure you've messed up from time to time but we all do that. Remember when I was a pirate? You were so little back then. That's when I went through the phase where I was the bad guy to the rest of the world. It's something you grow out of. To be honest you were the good guy in this war. We all know that. So don't be so hard on yourself..." England patted America on the back and continued "It'll be alright. We forgive you. What's important know is thy we work together to make the world a better place and not let anything like this happen again. Alright?"
"Ok. Thanks, It means a lot to hear you say that. Now what's for dinner, Dude?! I'm starving!"
" There's good old America."
