~Alfred F. Jones


"Kuya Alfred~! HURRY UP!" A girl with black hair and brown-ish skin yelled. She just ran in another classroom's doorway that wasn't obviously her classroom, waving both of her hands at her friend. This was Maria De La Cruz, a Filipino exchange student who moved in a few weeks ago. Behind her was a quite shy boy with a slightly long and blonde hair and a curl on top of it, this was Matthew Williams, a Canadian student.

"Wait, wait!" Alfred F. Jones, the boy with a slightly dirty, blonde hair, exclaimed. He began randomly throwing his stuff that was placed on his desk in his bag, not bothering to fix it. Besides, Kiku Honda, the Japanese student which he befriended, went home early so he can't ask him to fix it for him (Actually, the Japanese always volunteers to fix Alfred's things and this has become a routine in a daily basis.) He zipped up his bag and pulled it on his back, running to Maria and Matthew.

The trio were beginning to walk out of their school, chattering. "Hey, Hey, Kuya Alfred, are we still going to go to that fast food chain you said that just opened up? It has been long since we've eaten together, right Kuya Matthew?" Maria asked, looking at the shy boy beside her. Matthew nodded in response, holding his teddy bear tightly. "Of course! I wouldn't want to disappoint my younger siblings, can't I?"

Matthew just frowned, "First of all, I am born 8 minutes before you, that makes me older... And the last time I remembered, Maria was just your kindergarten classmate before she went back home to Philippines, not a sister.." Alfred just waved his hand dismissively, "Meh whatever, and you're slightly smaller than me, that makes me older! And I don't need to be biologically related to Maria just to be her bro!" Matthew just sighed in defeat, knowing that arguing just won't solve anything.

Maria noticed that her phone was ringing and grabbed it quickly and began typing furiously on the keypad. The Filipino was an expert on phones and texting, this was no surprise since you can see her almost all the time with her phone on her hand. "Papa Antonio is asking if he can hang out with us.." "Maria, stop calling Antonio 'Papa', it freaks me out!" "... Oh, Papa Antonio is bringing his friends too.."

Alfred sulked a little because his little sister just ignored his remark. He saw Maria texting a 'yup, u can go' on her phone and hid it on her little bag, "Where is that fast food chain again, Kuya Matthew?" Matthew began to think, "I think it's just beside the mall, we need to hurry since it can get a little crowded if we're late." Alfred took this as a chance to step, "Ok! I'm going to guide my two little siblings-" "..I'm older.." "-To the fast food chain, because I'M THE HERO!"


Ten minutes later, the trio arrived, but Maria and Matthew were trying to support themselves on a wall, breathing heavily in exhaustion. Alfred just unexpectedly grabbed one of their wrist and began dragging them to the fast food chain. "C'mon guys! No need to nap! We're here!" Alfred encouraged. Matthew just mumbled, "Maple...Leaf..." and Maria just tried to text the 'Bad Touch Trio' that they arrived.

Leading the two, Alfred entered the fast food chain and ordered 5 hamburgers and a large cup of soda for him, just fries for Maria and pancakes for Matthew. Soon, the trio got their orders and luckily, they found seats. All is well, except when the BTT joined them. First, Maria tackle-glomped her Papa and just figured out that Lovino has joined them (And secretly was being extra grumpy because of Maria's clingy-ness), Francis began to annoy his Mattheiu, and Gilbert just ordered food for the 4 new arrivals (BECAUSE HE'S AN AWESOME GENTLEMAN.)

Alfred can't help but feel something missing. Yes.. He knew that Lovino likes Antonio, it was obvious on how he acted whenever Maria is clinging on her Papa. Francis, though he hated to admit, obviously had a soft spot for the Canadian. Prussia? ...No one knows, his bird maybe? How about him, Alfred Jones? Who was his pair? Now that he thought of it, he never had been interested in his love life. He kept on rejecting a girl's confession though he had no one to fall in love with. He just had a feeling in his heart that he was waiting for another one, though he thought this one is not existing.. Yet...

An hour has passed, their chattering died down and finally decided to go home. Gilbert said that he might have to leave first since his strict little brother, Ludwig, is going to scold him for getting home late and forgetting to do his assignments again. Francis tried to persuade Matthew on going home with him but Matthew just politely refused to avoid being molested and said that his mom might get worried, which is bad for her health since the woman is terribly ill now. Maria, Lovino and Antonio decided to have a sleepover on the Spaniard's place despite Lovino's protests.

That just leaves Alfred. He doesn't go home with Matthew since they two were living separately. Yes, their parents divorced when they were 8. His mother decided on getting Matthew and his father got Alfred. The two can't protest since their family were obviously torn now. Alfred was still welcome in his mom's embrace but Matthew? His father can't even bear to look at the shy boy since he resembles his mom very much. The American stuffed his hands in his jacket's pocket. It was a quiet night, a very rare one on cities like this.


Alfred was woken up with his ringtone. He groaned as he sat up, finding the source of the annoyance. When he finally found what he was looking for, he flipped his phone open and began to read the sender's name so that he can send a whole page of hate message telling on how not to distract his sleep if it is already past 11 pm. But he stopped when he saw his brother's name on the message. He clicked the message quickly and read it.

Sender: Mattie
Message Received in 11:25

Hey, Alfred! You need to hurry downtown! I'm in an abandoned building near the mall, HELP!

Alfred just stared at the message for a whole minute before jumping out of bed and dressing up in his usual attire. He needs to hurry! His brother is in trouble and he won't ever forgive himself if that boy got hurt or worse! The dirty blonde-haired hero quietly passed the hallway to the stairs, to avoid waking his father up, and ran out of the house, grabbing his bicycle, "I hope Matthew is alright." And then, he took off.


Rein: Suspense~! Joke x3 So yeah, do I need to put the translations?

Translations: Kuya - Big Brother ; Papa - Father

Rein: Maria calls Antonio 'Papa' because Antonio treats Maria like his child. Maria is also Alfred and Matthew's childhood friend as said above. Lovino is also Maria's friend before she moves away to Philippines. She just came back to America when she's already 1st Year Junior High.

Oh AND...

Please review~! Your reviews will be my encouragement to continue this~!
