America's POV

"Can-can!" I cringe a little at how pitiful my voice sounds. I listen to Canada's steady footsteps as he comes into my room quickly, "Ame? Oh, Ame." He quietly pats my head, I notice that tears are still finding their way down my face. "C-can you call or text my friends? Or does that make me clingy? Maybe don't tell them to come over." Canada pats my head and gets up, "I'm telling them to come over. Like it or not." I try to roll over but stop as the feeling of needles stabbing me runs through my sore body. "But Can-can..." "Ame they are gonna find out about your stupid stress overload one way or another. You get these often and it always makes you sick or sore to the point you're a log." Uuugh...

Russia's POV

Japan and I walk onto the clear dirt path, observing the trees. "Japan, how is it possible for me to crush on Ame in only a few days?" She smiles up at me, "It just happens. Some people crush almost immediately, nothing you can control." I nod, "Okay, but why is a crush so... embarrassing?" She chuckles and shrugs. "Our minds just work like that. You fear rejection so if someone unwelcomingly learns about it your brain is prepared for something bad!" Before I can say anything more, our phones chime. "The group chat?"

BurgerBoi: Hey, it's Ame's brother. Can you two come over?

I grow a bit anxious and respond.

Ushanka: We're on our way.

I look up at Japan who turns around, we start heading off towards Ame's house.

As soon as we got there we were greeted by a boy wearing a raccoon hat, Canada. 

(Sorry I didn't try very hard TuT)

I shake his hand as he lets us in, "Hi Canada!" "Oh, hey, Japan. Russia, you okay?" I nod in an attempt to calm my nerves. "Yeah, just worried why you called us over." "Well, Ame has a tendency of over-stressing. When someone stresses or burns out too much their bodies act out against them. Ame's pretty weak right now but is fine otherwise." I stare at him, why is he saying this like it's normal? Dammit, Ame, how often does this happen to you?

We head upstairs to what I assume is Ame's room. Canada knocks on the door frame, "Ame, your friends are here." I hear a slight huff, "Okay." Japan goes in first with me following after her. Ame's lying down face-first onto his pillow mumbling. He turns his head towards us and smiles sheepily, "Heh, heya, guys! So, how ya doing?" I snort at his comment, "You're the one bedridden and you still ask that?" Japan giggles and decides to help him sit up. "How are you feeling, Ame?" He grumbles slightly before answering, "Sore. My body really wants to hate me."

I sigh in relief, "Ame! You made me and Japan think you were dying or something! Why are you so stressed, anyway?" He frowns slightly, "Hmm, let's see, I'm blind so I end up crashing everywhere, China is a jerk, school is hard work, we met a Karen, and life is hard. Hmm, yeah, I don't know why I'm so stressed!" Japan chuckles, "Okay, okay, we get it!" The rest of the time was spent with us hanging out together.
