Title: The Beilschmidts and the Kirklands

I know it's late I'm sorry! Also, I recommend at least glancing over the descriptions of the characters personalities and situation they are in so you won't be lost in the story not knowing where something came from. A preview is at the bottom! So, if you don't read the description at least read the preview!

Summary: So, this is the high school fanfic with our lovable dorks. I'm going to have them all in the same grade the oldest brothers failed a grade ok and the groups of brothers have the same dad but some not the same mom. Like Saxony and Hesse have a different mom than the other three Germany has a different mom from the four. Scotland, Ireland and North have a different mom than the other two who for the sake of story reasons are twins. They look alike anyways so why not? Also, the Beilschmidts and the Kirklands only have a dad that a major part in their life. For story purposes I'm kind of not going to add to many characters that only pop up every now and then. As for why they have different moms it's just for it to make sense why not all of them look too much alike at all. I know you can have the same parents and not look alike but it doesn't happen often so for them to have some of the major differences that they do I'm just saying they have different moms and for the story to keep these nut cases as a group they need to be around the same age and physically it would be impossible from some to be so close in age that they are. Also, some of it is for purposes of addressing real issues a lot of you know by now even when I like a story to be humorous I do have chapters where there are real world issues addressed and how they can be handled in a positive way but also to bring awareness to these issues. A lot of issues I may not have experienced but a lot I have experienced and a lot I've watched friends and family go through and helped them get through it so it's just good to have some good messages in a story to let people know you're aware and you understand and you love and care about what's going on. That's just the way I feel about it and a high school fanfic is a good story to make funny but also address issues. Like single parenthood, family, bullying, insecurities, getting away from the wrong crowd, first heartbreaks, friends leaving, and much more. I mean yes this is for the most part just going to be a fun story but it'll also have some little messages and lessons in there like the others. I just feel as though it's important to express it these days now.

But the story focuses mainly on these two nut job families that happen to move next door to each other and become the best of friends and make their own giant family and their boyfriends pop up a lot along with their closest friends. They are humans in this just regular high schooler. You know…..besides being crazy and doing a lot of almost impossible things when having fun.

Alfred uses his mom's last name who is American while his dad is Canadian. Only claims his American heritage on his mom's side because he's a little weirdo. (I mean who wouldn't want to be Canadian it sounds pretty cool!)

He will fight you at the drop of a hat. He loves making people laugh and smile. He also loves singing and playing the guitar. Adores animals more than he does people. Ludwig is his partner in crime. They connect immediately and cause chaos for eight older siblings because they consider their families to be one big family.

Has the biggest crush on Alfred though he loves torturing the football player a little. He also is on the soccer team.

Arthur loves his family a lot and he knows his dad spoils him and Dylan the most probably due to he nearly lost them at childbirth.

Since they couldn't have a sheep Arthur got him a little goat and Dylan adores it very much. It's even potty trained like a dog.

He struggles with math and science sometimes. English is the hardest subject. One time he made Allistor feel like shit when he was tutoring him and kept demanding Ludwig do it right and Ludwig burst into tears of frustration. Liam tried to kill Allistor for being inconsiderate that maybe Ludwig was trying his best. Ludwig denies his feelings for Liam at first because of his trust issues.

North: Séamus Kirkland (Pronounced Shay + muss)

Nickname: Séa

He has a thing for teasing Allistor all the time over every little thing. Ah little brother affection. He also is crushing on Gilbert big time and loves his sometimes-sappy attitude. He is corny as hell too so they go perfect together. He adores Ludwig like he does his own little brothers. He understands Ludwig's past with his mom because he used to do some of the same things but they both learned how to get out of it and be better people. That was why they understood each other so well and could talk about those things. Séamus is the one that hates his mom the most for how she is. How she used them and never cared. If anyone brings her up he's really bitter about her but at the same time he could admit he wouldn't change anything in his life because he wouldn't be strong as he is or the person that he is today without going through the things he went through. And he never would have his step mom that passed away. She took care of them since her and his dad started dating and he loved that woman like he would a real mom. She was his real mom. She was the one that took care of him. Biological blood doesn't mean a thing. Only who really loves you and cares determines family. Séamus is the brother that analyzes a situation or people before acting. So he's more careful about his approach about something and can handle it better than them sometimes. He also tries to keep a smile on everyone's face because all he wants is for his crazy family to be happy. He is the main one that makes Liam chill the fuck out if he's in one of his moods again. He likes to keep the peace between his brothers if they get in arguments and encourages Arthur's random attacks when he is bored and wants to play with one of his big brothers. Allistor always scolds Séamus about encouraging Arthur of all people to go around attacking people. It was a dangerous game he was encouraging here. But he usually ignores Allistor and keeps encouraging Arthur's violence. Séamus sometimes has to lock Gilbert in a room and make him take his homework seriously. Gilbert was smart and could make a perfect score on a test without studying but he hardly did the homework and just barely got by which pisses Séamus off and he forces him to take his schooling seriously. Fun fact Séamus started crying when Allistor made Ludwig cry. He hates seeing Ludwig so frustrated and defeated. Partly because it reminds him of all the times he felt that way. He was the one that found the goat Liam bought for Ludwig. He loves spoiling Gilbert. He takes care of Gilbert a lot like a good boyfriend. He thinks Gilbert's cussing habit it adorable especially when Gilbert tries not to cuss and ends up slipping up. Séamus is on the baseball and wrestling team.

Style: He likes to wear nice professional casual shirts and nice dark jeans. He used to dress like a thug so he's trying his hardest to be rid of that past him. He wears some simple black shoes. If he is being lazy he wears basketball shorts, tank top and sneakers. He has a favorite hoodie. Gilbert is the only one allowed to borrow it.

Saxony: Gisil Beilschmidt

Nicknames: Gigi (by Theodo), GisGis (Christoph and their dad), Fuck face or nerd (by Ludwig when he's teasing him)

Gisil is the oldest of the brothers so naturally him and Allistor connect easily because they understand what it's like dealing with four crazy younger brothers when their dads aren't there. Christoph is his twin brother and is two hours younger than Gisil. His role in the house matches Allistor's exactly but he is a little harder on his little brothers sometimes because they are worse at listening than the Kirklands. He constantly worries over Gilbert whose main focus is looking out for Ludwig so much he doesn't look after himself as much as he should. Then there is also the fact he gets mini heart attacks when he wakes up to Ludwig screaming in his sleep sometimes. He's usually the one to wake up the youngest brother and hold him as he stares blankly at the wall not letting anyone know what the dreams are and not letting anyone in. He has to be careful and tricky if he wants to break down some of the walls Ludwig has. He also worries about Gilberts tendency to not allow people to come into their lives sometimes. He had a strict family picture he liked and he didn't want anyone messing it up. So it concerned Gisil he has a hard time letting people be close. While Gisil looks out for his two baby brothers Christoph and their father watch out for him. He can't handle everything alone like he thinks he can. He plays baseball and is on the chess team which Ludwig teases him about all the time calling him a nerd.

Bavaria: Theodo Beilschmidt

Nicknames: Theo, out casted little bitch (by Gilbert and Ludwig when he is annoying them)

Theodo loves stirring up trouble for the two youngest. Nothing too major though he would never hurt his little brothers. Though he and gilbert clash and don't see eye to eye a lot he does love him and adore him none the less. He looks out for Gilbert in his own way. Whether it be by annoying him to a point he finally sees what Theodo is getting at or by straight up telling him what was what. Theodo generally gets a lot of punches because he does annoy all his brothers on purpose but he delivers them right back. He's got Christoph's back when he needs it and helps him do yard work or make sure Ludwig doesn't die on one of his adventures when Gilbert isn't paying attention. Like Gilbert he doesn't care to meet his mother he shares Gilbert opinion of her. Theodo is soft and gentle when he needs to be. He's there when he needs to be like during the time when they just got Ludwig back and he was so shut up and broken Gilbert was trying to get him to open up and get back to how he used to be. When Ludwig was shutting him out there were a lot of nights Theodo sat up holding Gilbert when he was crying over not knowing what to do to help their baby brother. He's on the boxing team and the hockey team.

Style: He also likes sweatpants, basketball shorts, sneaker, band t shirts and tank tops. He doesn't ever dress up unless his life is threatened.

Hesse: Christoph Beilschmidt

Nicknames: Chris, girly (By Theodo), not Gisil (by Ludwig when he's teasing and pretending he can't remember his name)

Christoph mainly worries over his elder brother but he does worry over Theodo as well. Mostly because he's sure Theodo will piss off the wrong person and get himself killed. He loves quiet bonding moments with his family and is the calmer one of the group. He thinks before he acts and typically figures out the solution to their problems faster than the others. Teachers love how punctual and gentle he is at school. But if people piss him off all hell breaks loose. He gets along with Dylan very well because they are a lot alike in some ways but he also likes to spend time with Allistor. He's like a mixture of Allistor's and Dylan's personality making him easy to get along with. He is on the debate team, kickboxing team and football team.

Style: He loves wearing tank tops and jeans. He has a jacket he'll wear when it's cold and nicer shirts when he goes out somewhere. He switches between sneakers and nicer dresser shoes a lot. His hair is usually in a bun.

France: Francis

Nicknames: Francy pants (Alfred), Frog (Kirkland family), and Fran (Gilbert because he watched The Nanny as a child so he likes calling Francis Fran.)

Francis through he is a little off putting at first with his flirty ways he's really a good person. He adores both the crazy families that were brought into his life. He and Gilbert clicked fast and were best friends immediately. He was a little shy and awkward around Allistor at first because he made a bad first impression which put tension between the two. He later apologized to Allistor and wanted to start over. Allistor agreed and from there their relationship grew. Francis loves making sweets for his friends. He's usually making something since they use his house as a hangout place. Only his mom is in his life and she's usually not home in the evenings due to work. Francis is really smart in school and he and Allistor often compete on who can get the higher grade. He loves teasing Arthur. Though Arthur usually beats him if he teases to much. He likes to tease Liam as well by playfully flirting with Ludwig to make him angry. Francis is very protective of his friends. Francis isn't just a flirt he's very caring he just flirts to try to get people to like him but that doesn't always happen. Francis just wants to be friends with everyone he doesn't like conflict. He tries to settle fights as quick as possible. He's on the soccer team and in the drama club.

Style: Francis likes to wear flashy button up shirts and faded jeans. His shoes are usually dress shoes or really nice sneakers. He wears a silver expensive watch at all times to keep his look stylish (It is to him at least). He has his normal long blonde hair like in the anime but sometimes he'll put it in a ponytail. He keeps his pedo beard shaved off. Despite only looking thin he is muscular and strong he just has a lean build like Arthur. His ears are pierced with plain simple shiny studs. He has a rose in his pocket at all times because he's a dork.

Ok so the ages are probably confusing you and grade. Let's say they're all in Junior year of high school. So Allistor and the other two are going to turn eighteen and Arthur and Dylan will turn seventeen. Gisil and Christoph will turn eighteen and the other three Seventeen. So basically, they're a year apart. Let's say the oldest Kirklands failed kindergarten for behavior reasons and the other two just started school a year late.

Scott Kirkland: Is the dad in the story and adores his babies very much. He hates working weird hours but he wants them to have everything they need. Arthur is his secret favorite. He's a doctor. He tries to be stern with Arthur but he can't manage it half the time Arthur is too cute for him to resist. He blames Allistor for Arthur being spoiled though it is technically everyone's fault. He thinks it's funny when he gets calls about the random shit his kids do at school. The school is unimpressed with how he handles it. He's fun and hyper so that's where he gets it from. He knows his kids corrupt people and he loves it. He loves the Beilschmidt family as well.

Folkert Beilschmidt (Germania): Is the father of our other adorable babies. Instead of the grandfather I figured he could be the father for this. He slept around when he was younger which is why his kids are a year to only a few months apart. He's settled down to raise his boys and is a doctor as well. (Guess who he works with? *Wink wink nudge nudge.* I'm not creative with jobs so I'll just make them best friends and doctors *nudge nudge elbow*) Gilbert and Ludwig secretly tie as his favorites. He blames Scott for his kids harassing the school and terrorizing people. He claims Scott's kids are a bad influence. Scott doesn't deny it. Folkert loves them all anyways.

And that's the description! By far the longest I've done! And I know It's way later than I wanted it made me upset but finals and helping raise my niece are more important. So, I had to handle college first but now I'm on break so I'll try my best to get some chapters up when my niece is in daycare or in bed. I just really wanted to start this one. I TRIED UPLOADING YESTERDAY AND IT WOULDN'T LET ME! GGRRRR!

Preview

Arthur picked up his last box from the house they were living in. His father a very successful yet secretly crazy doctor had gotten a new job a few states away. They were having issues here anyways with people picking at Dylan so they all kept getting into fights at school. Séamus was having trouble with people judging him from his past and Allistor was stressing on how to keep them all from getting hurt by the assholes at school emotionally or physically it didn't matter he would protect them. Scott applied in many places wanting to let them get a new start and not have troubles follow them. Arthur eyed his old shared bedroom he had with Allistor. He sighed walking out. They had good memories as well he'd miss about this house it wasn't all bad. He went to the truck and put his box in the back.

"Are you done slow poke," Scott teased.

"You're the slow one! You're old papa," he cried brightening up and attacking him making him laugh.

"Well mean one you were the last to come out so I think you're slow! Also, don't call me old that's rude," he teased wrestling his playful son to the ground.

"But true!"

"How dare you," he cried looking at him in mock offense making him laugh cutely at him.

"Tell him like it really is Artie," Allistor encouraged amused.

"AND YOU'RE STARTING TO HAVE THIN HAIR," Arthur blurted at the top of his lungs making his dad choke and the others roar with laughter.

"I AM NOT," he screeched tickling the snot out of his brat making him laugh wildly.

"Hmmmm," Dylan said looking.

"DON'T YOU START!"

"Bet you'll be bald in another five years," Séamus teased.

"Maybe less," Liam put in.

"I say three years," Allistor said grinning wickedly.

"YOU'RE ALL SO MEAN TO ME! SHUT UP! ALL OF YOU! BEFORE I BEAT EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU," he wailed making them laugh harder.

They loved picking at their dad. He could be more dramatic than Dylan half the time. He eventually stopped torturing Arthur and let him up. They all piled into the three vehicles they had and started driving toward their new home. It would be a long drive but they'd get through it.

"Hey Allistor am I really balding," Scott spoke up eventually making him crack up.

"No dad you still have a full head of hair. Artie is just harassing you like always."

"Good," he chuckled. "He's a mess."

"Don't we all know it," Allistor agreed amused.

To the Beilschmidts!

"Are we…..moving again….because of me," Ludwig asked hesitantly as they packed up the last of their stuff.

"No Luddie I just got a job offer that's all," Folkert smiled gently.

"All the teachers kept calling and calling you over everything I did. Because I'm the bad kid to them. They picked at the others. I feel like it's my fault. This is the second time we have up and left because of me," he murmured.

"Luddie it isn't because of you. It's because I got a job offer and got tired of adults picking at my child over things his mother did. Nothing else that's all. You're not a bad person and you never will be. SO GET THOSE THOUGHTS OUT OF YOUR HEAD DAMN IT," he barked.

Ludwig recoiled flinching at his anger. Folkert sighed softly and motioned him over with a hand. Ludwig went to him hesitantly then pressed close as his father wrapped his arms around him.

"I'm sorry for getting angry at you. I just get upset when you think you're a bad person or it's always your fault when things happen. It's not your fault Ludwig. We've all done things we regret in our past. And we'll do things we regret in the future. That's just life. What makes us good and strong people is learning from our mistakes and trying to be better. So don't ever let someone hold your past against you. It's all said and done and forgiven. There is no reason to hang on anymore," he murmured pressing a kiss to his forehead.

"Ok," he whispered snuggling closer to him just wanting to be held a bit longer.

"Come on Luddie let's go see our new home," he smiled petting his head then walked him to the jeep.

"Ok," he agreed smiling slightly up at him.

They climbed in and soon the vehicles were off to their new home.
