I found him where I would never have thought to look. Which was weird because for anyone else that's the first place I would look. But England was never in his dorm. He was always passing out detentions like candy. So I knocked after running all around the school and asking around.
"Go away." Came a sharp voice form inside. Instead I opened the door. Remembering Matthew`s words.
For once it`s time to not give him what he wants
"What the hell do you think you`re-What do you want?" He changed his question when he saw who was at the door. Clicking it shut behind me I walked into the overly clean room. His gaze quickly turned from me to the wall. He was sitting in a chair facing a blank wall with his back to the door. I heard quick movements like he was hiding something.
"What do you have?" The movements ceased and he stood.
"What the bloody hell do you mean? I thought you were done."
"I`m still a colony whether I gave back the collar or not. I wanted to tell you that I`m sorry I hit you and that I gave the collar back. I`m sorry I never listen. I`m just sorry for everything."
Arthur still wouldn`t look at me. "Bloody hell. You think I wanted an apology? That`s what you thought? Had I wanted an apology I would have forced one out of you! You say I push you around too much so leave already! Do as you please! I don`t need to get hurt again and I don`t need to hurt anyone else." His voice quivered ever so slightly but I couldn`t see if he was crying as he wouldn`t let me see his face.
"It only hurt me more to be told that bull shit."
"It will help in the long run if you fucking leave. God damn it Sey, why must you be so stubborn?" The fact that he called me Sey, not a rude name, or by my real name, but by Sey, that was shocking.
"I was born this way. You`re going to have to learn to deal with it. What I was doing obviously wasn`t working, you`re not getting rid of me so easily."
"Go away! I don`t want you! I`m done were you not listening when I said you are simply territory?"
"But you don`t act like i-"
"You claim I`m cruel! You claim I never care what you want. If I cared about you wouldn`t I? I wanted you to leave!"
"Oh, but I do whatever I please don't I?"
"You hate it with me! You made that extremely clear! Just go the fuck away!" He wiped at his eye quickly.
"I don`t want to be anyone`s colony! It`s not just you! I`m stubborn because you don`t listen!"
"I always listen! Even when you don`t want me to! Even if I don`t want to hear it! Honestly you can be so dim!"
"Oh, I`m dim? You`re the one who couldn`t possibly see the fact that when I left I wanted you to chase after me!"
"Stop trying to play these games with me! You`re as bad as 'Grandpa France' You don`t bloody care! And yes, you are dim. You`re the one who couldn`t possibly see that I did and said all of those things to protect you!"
"From what? Tell me that. From what exactly?" I crossed my arms.
"Reality! You don`t bloody seem to get that in the world things don`t go as planned. "
"What makes you think I need protecting?"
"You`re too open, too trusting, too naïve." He turned his face away.
"Oh really now?"
He turned and faced me for the first time I got a full on look at his face. There was so much emotion. There was anger, pain, sadness, remorse, worry, concern, and what looked like something I really hoped to consider… "Really! No matter what I tell you, you will go off and make your life an open book. "
"Well I didn`t exactly tell you how I felt about you did I?"
"Well it was pretty obvious! "
"Really now?"
"Really. You are such a fool." I slapped him again. That was enough. He took me by my collar and jerked me in forward towards him.
"Say that again." I warned him. "I dare you."
"You. Are a foolish naïve little slut." But his tone wasn`t biting. It was gentle. Even still the words enraged me. I dug my heel into his foot and he took action.
I blinked.
That was…unexpectected.
A/N: come oooon people! Where are my old loyals? *le sob* i have a few new ones but wheres my old favorite people? Alright I want oppinions! Should I make a sequel to Owns My country and my heart? I have a few ideas up my sleeve involving mixing an old fic i wrote with this one (P.S. I haven`t posted the old one yet) If i do things are going to get interesting and new characters! Or perhaps bigger parts for old ones?
