Okay, this one's a bit short. And I'm not sure how many people even know this one 'cause it's rather old and I probably failed at it. ;;v I tried! Oh, and in case anyone doesn't see the message I posted, I kind of need a RP partner for the Alpha!ArthurXOmega!Alfred story, if anyone's interested? Anyway, here's today's headcanon:
Alfred always introduces both himself and Arthur to strangers, and he always embarrasses him by saying things like "and this is the mostbeautiful man on the face of the earth."
Alfred really was a daft fool. He was the biggest fool among fools, Arthur couldn't help but think, head pressed against the said man's chest comfortably and eyes closed. The sound of the telly was only a faint rumble to him, his ears much rather listening to the steady beat of his lover's heart. It was going so smoothly, so firmly. It soothed him, made him hum softly as he closed his eyes.
A flashback played through his head, only half-recognizable in Arthur's state of drowsiness.
"Yo, hey dude!" It was his lover's-Alfred's voice, ever so cheerful. His eyes were sparkling behind his blue-rimmed glasses, a hand sneaking around Arthur's waist, not that he minded. It was winter, such a freezing season with snowflakes falling down from the sky, sparkling like little diamonds. They landed on their woolen hats; they were already covered with little snowflakes.
Arthur didn't even know who Alfred was greeting and he was even moreconfused when he lifted his gaze towards the person. They were short, with curly brown hair ending at the curve of their shoulders. Green eyes were wide behind glasses, the arch almost sliding down the tan person's nose. Whoever this was, they didn't look like anyone Arthur knew.
"U-uhh, are you talking to me…?" And from the sound of it, whoever this was didn't know Alfred, either. Arthur scowled a bit, cheeks heating up a bit from embarrassment. God, why did his lover have to be so embarrassing nearly all the time? Alfred only nodded cheerfully, eyes lightning up as the hand, that was draped comfortably on the Brit's waist pulled him closer, flush to the muscular man's side fondly. His cheeks heated up again, though this time it was for another reason whatsoever.
That git…
"Yeah, man! I'm totally talking to you!" His laugh was bright, almost proud and the other man shuffled his feet, looking at Alfred strangely with his eyebrows furrowed and nose wrinkling a bit. "Anyways, just wanted to say hey! Spreading the Christmas cheer an' all!" That didn't excuse Alfred's embarrassing actions even a bit. Really, who says 'hi' to a complete stranger? "The name's Alfred F. Jones and this-" Like Arthur was a child, Alfred ruffled his hair with a cheesy grin, ignoring Arthur's annoyed glare and muttered words of, "What the bloody Hell are you doing, Alfred?" as well as the stranger's uncomfortable fidgeting and glances. "-this is the most beautiful man on the face of Earth. His name's Arthur! Have a good day!"
Oh Alfred, that romantic, annoying git…
What Arthur didn't know was that the tradition, the words would continue for the longest time, that that was what Alfred was going to say everytime they had to introduce himself.
He had to admit, he didn't mind as much as he showed.
