I had this idea ;-;

West Virginia ran away his brother a month or two ago and was currently staying at Indiana's house. He hadn't left his room in weeks. He missed Virginia. But he couldn't stand what he was doing. Slavery itself was a bit of a stretch, but it was ok with him as long as they were together. A whole war over it? West really thought he could convince him as well as the confederacy himself. But of course, it led to a huge fight. He couldn't take it. The pain. The suffering, all of it.

It wasn't ok.

He wasn't ok.

He wanted to go home.

He wanted to come home to Virginia and the rest of the south talking while drinking whiskey. As Kentucky made food in the kitchen. Geo making his famous tea, and South Carolina dancing with him all the time randomly. It always made him smile. He missed Maryland coming over on Saturdays for poker, and him dragging Delaware with him. "WEST!! WEST!! COME HERE WE GOT HIM!!" Indiana yelled from down the stairs. He couldn't grasp what he meant but he really did need a shower. Slowly he climbed out of bed and left the comfort of his room. "What? What do you-" There he was.

Virginia.

Tied to a chair in the living room with Ohio and Maryland beside him. "Brother?"

"Go ahead, shoot me," Virginia growled. He saw it coming a mile away. They wanted his own brother to torture him. He couldn't care less at this point. West's hands turned into fists, his knuckles turning white. The weeks of missing him and he doesn't get a "Hello!" or "I love you, bro!"

"I'M NOT GONNA HURT YOU DUMBASS!! YOU'RE STILL MY BROTHER!! STOP ALL THAT TALK ABOUT BEING SINGLED OUT AND UNLOVED!! IF YOU DON'T AGREE WITH MY MOTIVES THAT'S FINE! I'VE NEVER CLAIMED TO BE ROYALTY OR ANYONE HIGHER UP YOU HAD TO LISTEN TO!! YOU ARE A VIRGINIAN!! YOU'RE MY BLOOD!! I FUCKING MISSED YOU!! NOT EVEN AN 'I missed you, brother!' HAS LEFT YOUR MOUTH AFTER MONTHS!! FUCK THIS!!" West Virginia marched up the stairs. Tears streaming down his cheeks, he wanted his family back. Not this.

Virginia watched him walk upstairs. "Damn it... Damn it... Damn it... THIS STUPID FUCKING WAR!!" He screamed, he did miss him. He wanted to be with him again. Indiana gave a soft nod to Ohio who cut the southerner's ropes. "What the..."

"Don't you have a brother to talk to?" Mary asked. Virginia threw his arms around the two. Whispering a small thank you. Virginia rushed up the stairs and into his room. Seeing West curled up in a ball of blankets. Sounded like he was crying. "West... I-I'm sorry. I-Let's just talk." Virginia slowly walked up to his brother before getting pushed away. For the second time. "JUST GO AWAY!!"

"But-"

"LEAVE!!"

"Ok..."

Virginia walked back down the stairs and broke. He grabbed Maryland and just started sobbing into his chest.

This wasn't how it was supposed to go...

I'm sad now-

Sorry :C
