[he's quiet for a while, pressing his fingertips to his lips in thought while he looks off distantly. finally he speaks]

They've gotten to you, haven't they? Finally, all those silly little insecurities have forced their way into your mind, and you're unhappy. Again. Not that I'm surprised. This always happens to you, doesn't it, my Lady? And, in the same way, you've decided to make a run for it. The weight is too much for you to bear.

You've done it before. You never stick to anything, do you? See, even I am causing you to feel disgusted. I am not your enemy. We've been with each other for several years, and I have both enjoyed and mourned over the events we've gone through together. I'm... thankful for your loyalty, I suppose... All the studying and watching and reading and asking questions. You've immersed yourself into my culture and history, despite knowing that there are others who know more about me, or who would criticise you for not crossing your T's and dotting your I's.

[a light sigh, pinches the bridge of his nose]

Are you really certain about this? Of course, I don't want to add too much stress to your life. You're already a nervous wreck. A few things have toppled you over the edge within the past few days, it seems. I know it is not my duty to apologise, but I'm sorry, nonetheless.

I hope that doing this is the right thing for you. For now, I will remain by your side, since you depend on me. But not because I depend on you, or anything.

[Spain laughs at that, not at all deterred by England and his droll response.] Maybe! But it can be done in other places too, yes? Or we can go on vacation somewhere and do something else!

Vacation? Hmmm... [thinking about it]

Where would you like to go on vacation, hm? [England's been known to visit his house and... Wreck drunken havoc...]

[he's trying to think of a place where the person won't annoy him. South America would be fun but... all of Spain's children... mocking him...]

What about India?

India sounds like a good idea! I haven't been there in a while either... [His Royal Family seems to like India a lot and they've taken him along on trips, especially when it's only the Queen who is visiting.]

Right, then. You and I will take a vacation in India. [now that he doesn't have to stay on the island, he wants to go somewhere and just chill] ...But not because I want to be with you. I'm going for me!
