I didn’t need to know that, Alfred thought despairingly. He bit his lip to keep from being sick. With one final outburst of energy, he managed to finally pry his southern neighbor from his body. The sheer force it took to do this would probably leave bruises on Mexico, but knowing her, he figured she’d probably enjoy bragging about them later. While she was still stunned from the gesture, he snatched his glasses from her hand in one quick motion, and leaped off the bed victoriously.
He started running to the door of the bedroom, but Mexico, having regained what senses she had, got there first. She threw herself against it, blocking his way.
“You’re not going to leave me! We’re going to get married! Married! Mariiiieeeedddd!!!” Tears poured down her cheeks. “You’re going to save me! I need you! I’ll have a better life with you!”
“Noo! Go away!” Alfred attempted to wrestle the doorknob from her death grip, with no avail. Giving up on the door, he turned and ran toward the open window. He prayed that the frame would be big enough for him to fit through. As if by some miracle, he managed to squeeze his shoulders through in record time. But by this point, Mexico was standing right behind him, grabbing at his ankles, begging him not to leave her. That inspired him to give the rest of his body an extra-hard pull out the window, one that caused him to break free of the frame and plunge down a story, headfirst into the row of bushes that lined his house.
He was a bit scratched up, but he didn’t have time to care. Almost instantly, he broke into a wild run, hoping that Mexico wouldn’t have enough energy to chase after him. Of course, he was wrong, and when he chanced a glance back, he saw the girl jump out the window after him. Her black braids flew out behind her as she sprinted, faster than Alfred had ever seen a girl run before. She was certainly a piece of work, that Mexico. Alfred might have been impressed at her persistence if he hadn’t been so terrified.
He ran for what seemed like hours, zigzagging back and forth all over the city, making sharp turns into side streets, trying to throw her off his trail. But she was like a bloodhound, ever capable of sniffing out his path. Just when Alfred was beginning to run out of breath, he desperately dived behind a dumpster in a dark back alley, and waited, trying to stay as silent as death, praying she hadn’t seen him.
He heard her footsteps approaching, heard her calling his name.
“Alfreeed, mi vida, where did you go? Where are you? Come out and make love to me!”
Silence.
“Alfred! I know you want me! Te amo! Te amo!”
More silence.
Then, Alfred heard footsteps coming from the street, approaching the dumpster. Mexico gave a loud squeal, and Alfred heard a brief struggle, followed by the protests of someone being pinned against a wall.
“Hey! What’s going on here, eh?” a familiar voice cried.
“Oh, Alfred!” Mexico sighed. “I knew you couldn’t escape from me!”
“But I’m not Alfred! I was just bringing my trash to the dumpster and-mmphhhaahh!”
“But of course you are, mi terroncito de azúcar! You cannot deny my love! Now come with me, and we’ll get married married married!”
“But I-no!” The protests were abruptly cut off by the sounds of Mexico’s eager kisses as she dragged her very confused victim away.
A/N so far: I’m far from a native Spanish speaker, so I apologize for any mistakes that may have happened. -“Buenos dias, hermano! Como estas?” = Good morning, brother, how are you? -“La ventana fue abierto”= The window was open. -“Quien?”= Who? -Mi amor, mi corazon, mi vida, mi querida, etc. = Sickeningly sweet terms of endearment -“Te amo” = I love you. -“Quiero pasar mi vida contigo!” = I want to spend my life with you! -“ Mi terroncito de azúcar”= My sugar cube. (Yeah, idk.)

As a Mexican I don't know whether I should be offended or completely amused XD I choose the latter just because I find this fic hilarious! (although for the record... We are not like that... at least most of us are not like that XD)
And I know you wrote this a long time ago but I'll say it anyway:
