"Will you stay still?!"
"This is your fault you know! Who leaves a burger on the floor any way?" Arthur groaned, placing his hand back on his head in attempt to force the throbbing pain away. He was currently laying down in his bed after being persuaded (forced) by America .
" I already said I'm sorry." And he could tell. The boy was riddled with guilt and worry, shown through out his body language of looking away and fiddling fingers. Even his eyes had pricks of tears in them. All in all, the child was too cute for his own good.
After slipping in the burger, England was quite close to hitting his head off the table and knocking himself unconscious, fortunately this was not the case and the man only received a mild swelling. Though this did nothing in soothing the worry in America and causing the child to nurse him back to fill health.
Looking back at the child, properly this time, he saw the weariness in his movements, how this 'nursing' was taking a roll on his body. Yet in every movement he still have his best. From trying to drain the water from the cloth (which was still always soaking) and then placing it on to his head with his best precision.
Deciding that enough was enough he grabbed his tiny sleeve and gently tugged to grasp the boys attention.
"America, why don't you go to bed?"
The phrase seemed to cause the other male to hesitate, his body tending.
"No..."
"hmm?"
"No, I don't need to sleep." America stated firmly.
"But you're obviously tired, I'll be fine don't worry about me." Arthur even mustered his best smile once more, yet this one held more honesty. And still, it only caused Alfred's grown to deepen.
"I promised to look after you and I will! Because when ever you're ill or in need I'll be there ! I'll be there to save you, just like you saved me. So listen up!"
Too shocked to reply, Arthur just tilted his head up to look into his eyes, finding a strong combat blue, filled with determination.
"I will never leave you Arthur, we will stay together forever and ever. I will protect you and you'll protect men and one day I'll grow up to be a hero, your hero. Just like you're mind."
Lies
"So what do you say?"
All of them.
"I'll never leave you."
You always were the worst liar of them all.
