TW: Cutting, PTSD, Hurt/comfort. Tell me if I missed something

This Monday would be absolute hell, for Texas anyway. Mexico was coming to a meeting to speak about border control, everyone was antsy about it.

Even the few others who were taken from Mexico were scared of him still but knew Texas was the one who endured most of the abuse

It feels like a tear in my heart
Like a part of me missing
And I just can't feel it
I've tried and I've tried

So when he showed up a few tried to act perfectly as Mexico was very abusive. And powerful. Texas' eyes widened, he couldn't remember the last time he didn't have a nightmare about this man.

And I've tried

The thing is, nobody told Texas

Tears on my face I can't take it
If lonely is a taste then it's all that I'm tasting
Do you hear my cry?

"Why the fuck is he here?" California looked at Texas He grew worried as he saw a tear fall from his eye. He could tell how scared Texas was.

I cry, oh

At that moment Texas had never felt more alone.

Can you hold me?

he was surrounded by others who were speaking some to him others to another, but it was silent

Can you hold me?

Oklahoma hadn't looked until now and he realised the urgency of the situation when he finally did.

Can you hold me in your arms?

every time Mexico moved Texas flinched and tensed. It scared some of the others, and Alaska felt the need to protect him.

Just wrap me in your arms, in your arms
I don't wanna be nowhere else
Take me from the dark, from the dark
I ain't gonna make it myself
Put your arms around me

Mexico knew how petrified Texas was, and purposely moved more than he needed to, Gov knew what was happening and quickly stood up slamming his hands on the table, "you know what you're doing and I will not allow you to further traumatize anyone here do you hear me."

Put your arms around me
Let your love surround me
I am lost

If Gov was pissed so was the east coast, and so New York looked up at Mexico who was surprised.

I am lost

He cracked his neck, in a threatening way as a warning, and Florida cracked his knuckles.

If I ain't got you here
If I ain't got you, I ain't got nothing at all
Can you hold me?
Can you hold me?

"I think it's almost time for you to leave, say what you need about border control and leave," Florida spoke up, Texas now starting to hyperventilate

Can you hold me in your arms?
In your arms? (Yeah, yeah)
Yeah, I feel like it's just me, feel like it's just me

"This is your fault Jiselle. You stupid mistake of a daughter. Why are you so weak woman?!" What happened next happened in the blink of an eye California, got up and slapped Mexico.

What it gon' take? What it gon' be?
I don't even know (it's not just you)
But I'm lonely

Texas' breathing got caught, "you have no right to call him by that name you monster now get the fuck out."

Feeling like I don't even know me, I don't even know me
(I feel it too) Gotta have you gotta see you
(Yeah the only thing I have to think about
The only one I that can't live without) I see you

"We have barely discuss-" "we have nothing to discuss. You need to leave asshole, before we make you." California countered.

(I need you to hold me now)

Texas who could tell something was about to go down got up and left.

If I ain't got you
If I ain't got you
I ain't got nothing
I ain't got nothing

He could hear some yelling in the room behind him and picked up the pace, he was disappointed in himself for not being the "strong cowboy" he always was.

If I ain't got you
I ain't got you
If I ain't got you
I'm lonely

He felt... Weak

If I ain't with you I'm lonely
I'm lonely
I need you
I need you

He got to his room and rummaged through all the drawers, picking up only what he needed, the silver blade reflected light, he raised it to his skin and

Can you hold me?
Can you hold me in your arms?
Feel like it's just me, like it's just me
What it gon' take?
What it gon' be?

"Put it down, I know it's hard but put it down." Alaska called out to the distressed state, Texas didn't even turn around, he cut his arm just a bit before he heard his footsteps.

I don't even know, I don't even know
But I'm lonely, lonely
Feel like I don't even know me
Feels like I don't even know me
I don't even know me

Alaska spun him around and took the blade out of his hands, and pulled him into a hug, Texas struggled for a moment before breaking down, he'd never been so scared of the past returning again.

Howdy y'all! Sorry this took as long as it did, I struggled a bit trying to figure out where it should go but I like a challenge! Note: I have nothing against Mexico, this is for entertainment purposes only!
