England, letting go of America

Ok, I'm a hardcore US/UK/US shipper but I need this like burning:
England letting go of his romantic feeling for America. Voluntarily. Peacefully. Without violence or coercion or because of a third party. He realizes or thinks America would never return his feelings, angsts about it, but eventually decides it's time he moved on and looked forward. He'd always care about him, of course, but not in a romantic sense.
If you want to hook England with another character that's fine. ♥

I wasn't sure I'd want to read this because the 'ship is new for me and I knew it would be bittersweet, but damn, anon, you encapsulated so much of what I feel already for them. Painful and absolutely lovely!

Can't... fffff... speech functions have been temporarily disabled by this fill. Too beautiful. The symbolism, the repetition, the bittersweetness. This is Arthur doing what fanfic writers usually shy away from depicting: falling out of love. So painful and yet so incredibly healing. This is what I think actually happened with America and the UK's relationship, really, so it's wonderful to have that validated inside the Hetaliaverse. (Not to mention Arthur and Francis; oh, passive-aggressive friendly violent truly-caring bickering so characteristic of them.) This fill goes into my favorites folder, and trust me, very few fills go in there. If I knew who you were, anon, I think I'd have to marry you.

This anon is torn between crying and smiling. Or crying until I smile. There's just something so heartbreaking about this, because Alfred is oblivious, and it hurts. And it hurts that England is constantly remembering America as a kid, and I'm just tearing up.
