On his way home from school, Alfred reflected on the day. "Oi, burger bastard! Could you get any less fucking healthy!?" "Bloody American, stop gorging yourself on that greasy slop you call food!" "Maybe you should try to lay off the burgers, Alfred-san..."He was on the verge of tears. 'So, it's true.. I am just a disgusting, fat, idiotic pig aren't I?' Even his friend Kiku of all people! The wheat-haired teen kicked a couple of small rocks as he saw his house coming into view.

He'd had enough. No more was he going to be faking a smile or laugh every time someone commented on his fat ass. Starting today, he would quite eating all the fatty, sugary foods he constantly devours. Also, more time at the gym, definitely. 'Good plan! Of course it is, the hero thought of it, duh!' The American thought in his head. As he entered the house though, his mother's cooking instantly filled his nose.

"Oh, Alfred! You're home a little late aren't you?" His mother Cindy said, in that motherly way. "Just slowed down a bit, kinda tired." "Aren't you hungry dear? I can have your brother bring you up some."
"Nah, I'm just gonna shower and go to bed." Alfred went upstairs, his backpack beginning to drag the steps. Matthew passed him on the staircase, catching a glimpse of the fallen smile he'd put on for their mother.
"Mom, what's wrong with Al?" The younger had asked. He was only thirteen. Alfred was sixteen.
"Just tiredness is all, Matthew! COme, sit down and eat!" She ushered the lighter blonde towards the table.

Meanwhile, up in his bedroom, Alfred was laying on his bed, staring at the ceiling. The poor boy was gripping his stomach, poking and prodding at his thighs. 'I'm so fucking fat... how the hell have I not noticed it earlier?!' His mind went back to his diet plan from earlier. He'd keep at this one he promised himself. As he left to shower then head off to bed, his stomach made a low growling noise.

'Shut it.' He murmured to his body, not expecting a reply as he turned the shower's dial. 'Hot water makes you lose weight..'
