But why did it have to be like this? Why, of all things…did it have to be [him] who hurt her like this?
She loved him, she’d always loved America. From the very first time she held that tiny little hand in hers, her heart had been his. America was her little prince who brought her flowers when she worked over time; he was the little boy who burned his hand when he’d tried to make her favorite tea; and he was England’s greatest treasure, far more valuable than any Spanish gold.
America was her darling, her precious, precious little brother.
Which was why it was unforgivable for her to desire him the way she did.
If she had ever been ashamed of anything, it was this. Her dirty little secret. Her greatest shame of all, the one thing in the world that could make her go weak at the knees and [crumble].
It was unforgivable, it was utterly unforgivable and she had no one to blame but herself.
America may not be her flesh and blood, but she’d raised him as if he were her own son. She’d held him in her arms as a toddler, had read him stories at night when he’d still been young enough to believe in her magic. America had been her little boy for so long that she had fooled herself into believing he would stay small forever. The little bundle of joy that was her source of happiness, England believed it would always be hers.
But America had grown up, and she’d remained unaware of this change until it was far too late.
How stupid she’d felt they day they met again after so many years of not seeing each other. England had barged into the house expecting her little boy to run into her arms and greet her with his sweet kisses and candy hugs; instead, she’d been greeted by a young man she almost didn’t recognize as her America.
Before her stood, not a boy, but a man.
And what a lovely young man her little boy had become.
America had always been the most adorable child in the world to England; he’d been a cherub, with his golden locks and cornflower-blue eyes and his sunny smile. The last time she’d seen him the boy had been a choir boy, with dainty little limbs and a face as pretty as a doll’s.
The man that stood before her could not be called anything but handsome.
He’d shot up like a weed in the years England had been away. His face had lost almost all vestiges of baby fat; his shoulders had broadened and no longer was his body the lanky, uncoordinated frame it had once been. Try as she might, England could not find any traces of the little angel who hid behind her skirts whenever a thunderstorm was upon them.
America was a man, handsome and strong and when he pulled England into a hug, she felt a warmth coil in her belly the likes of which she hadn’t felt in centuries. His hands were large on her dainty waist, his breath hot on her neck; when he squeezed her tighter, her breasts pressed up against the filthy flannel of his shirt.
“England,” he murmured, and even his voice was different. It was a man’s voice. “England, I missed you.”
And England felt her heart skip one, two beats; her breath caught in her throat at the same time she felt something between them break.
Just like she knew how to read the salty ocean wind and known when a storm was coming, she knew nothing would ever be the same way again.
[Historical notes: Anglo-Spanish war (1585-1604; it was an intermittent conflict between the kingdoms of Spain and England that was never formally declared. The war was brought to an end with the Treaty of London, negotiated in 1604 between representatives of Philip III and the new Scottish king of England, James I.), the Iberian Union (1580-1640; it refers to the historical political unit that governed all of the Iberian Peninsula south of the Pyrenees through a dynastic union. This union was composed of the crowns of Portugal and Spain, after the Portuguese dynastic crisis and in a personal union of the crowns, along with their respective colonial possessions. Portugal eventually overthrew Spain with England’s help), the Spanish Armada (1588; a complete naval failure by Spain that led to the English Armada and more aid to the resistance in Portugal against Spain’s rule), the Wars for America (early 1600s; we should all know what these are). I would go into more detail, but I have to get up in four hours and I want my sleep, orz. Just know that they go in order.]
This fill will get ~sexy~ at some point; I’m just building up the prompt. Also, the bonuses, they will be included. I apologize beforehand if this isn’t what OP wanted, and for any spelling errors. It is 4 am here ; ;
AAA PORTUGALLL (sorry. I'm always happy whenever Portugal is mentioned :D). But poor Portugal...he's worked so hard to prove himself different, yet he's still lumped into the same category as other men. Ouch, Igiko, harsh much? I'd much prefer if Portugal is a woman here (and the femme fatale BFFs can sail across the sea and bully Antonio together! XD) or may be he can be gay and having UST against Ottoman Empire or something. Then they bitched about men together.

*Fangirl squeal* Wow, this is so amazing so far, altho I feel kind of sad because we all know what's going to be coming in a couple decades, but if I ignore that this is really sweet!
