Time - England x Reader

Time

After he left, you waited. You waited for his undecided return even after his good bye.
Seconds turned to
Minutes turned to
Hours turned to
Days turned to
Weeks turned to
Months turned to
Years until it almost reached a decade. Then, you stopped waiting. Exactly 5 years and 3 months ago, Arthur Kirkland, representative of the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland said his last goodbye to you. You could hear the same pained voice that spoke to you and the soft touches he last gave to you until he opened up an umbrella and walked out of the door and your life
Forever
Never to be seen again

Actually enough, you were quite amazing to have waited for Arthur to come back for so long even though deep inside you knew he wouldn't come back. You were only a mere adolescence of the age of fifteen when Arthur disappeared from your photo album. He left without a trace, without a word, and without an explanation, and that was what bugged you the most.
Of all the boyfriends you had since he left, you never felt the same with them as with Arthur. Yes, you had loved them with all your heart, but it didn't seem as perfect as it was with England. The both of you were meant to be with each other like Yin and Yang, black and white. But the one seemingly small difference that separated the duo was a single fact about them.
You were a human and he was a country.
However, you didn't realize that fact when you were courting him. You were much too happy and were blinded by the joy to apprehend that your relationship with Arthur was really impossible. It was only when you reached the age of twenty when you really did understand.
Time was endless.
But it was only endless for him.

You, on the other hand, only had eighty years that surmounted to barely anything in England's book of age. For him, to see you die right before his eyes in a snap second ripped him apart to no ends. And to feel the emotion to how he will when you have a life together is just too much for him to handle. In the end, he decided to leave you lingering on the life you could have built and had because simply,
The pain would be too much to handle for the both of you.
Arthur took months to decide what was right for the both of you and it wretched him whenever he thought of it. Every time you would smile at him with your [e/c] eyes shining innocently, he would forcibly break out into a smile to please you, just to let you be at ease that he was happy – which he was for now. Each time you two had a sweet moment alone, he cherished it to no beyond because he knew that
It wouldn't last forever.

And Arthur was right, much to both of your dismay. He left a few weeks later with a broken hearted smile with you standing, staring at the open door, wondering what just happened.  
After that incident, you grew a bit depressed, moping around the house, having no energy to do anything remotely active. He was practically the love of your life and he just walked out the door. With your positive personality, it wouldn't be done if you stayed like that forever. And so you moved on, even if it's just slightly, you moved on. New friends, new schools, and new men – you basically started with a new life. But never had you ever completely erased the memories of Arthur Kirkland.
So when you walked out the dorm with your [f/c] purse and reached out for your new lover's hand, you promised yourself. You promised yourself to move on but to keep the memories and to make new ones. You knew Arthur would find another girl to his liking as have you and that he didn't want to separate as much as you. Time was simply unmerciful.
Time wouldn't wait for you.
But you won't let time get wasted.
