America layed on the couch of his living room, 11:02 PM, the 4th of July. It was America's birthday, yes, and the humans even had a whole patriotic holiday for the birth of their country. Some Americans were a bit too patriotic for his liking, blasting fireworks late into the night for all the neighbors to hear. He hated it. Especially with his insomnia, he had it even worse July 4th with being kept up by the noise. With how loud it was too, it hurt his ears sometimes.

You decided to stay over at his house tonight because you simply just wanted to. You also couldn't sleep with the ruckus. So you went downstairs to watch TV, cause if you can't sleep you just embrace it sometimes. You noticed America curled up on the couch covering his ears before you had the chance to sit down.
