A/N: Hello! This is my first posted fanfic here! I had originally posted this on deviantart and wanted to see how it would do here.
This story is mainly inspired by events that have happened to me while playing Minecraft.

Gilbert had met Matthew just by luck. Matthew was hurrying out of a the local café and accidently bumped into Gilbert. The two slowly became friends, which later blossomed into love. Today, Gilbert was finally going to meet Matthew's family. "So Birdie, mind telling me why we have to leave the city to meet your family?" However, there was one thing Matthew forgot to mention. "They don't live in the city." Gilbert raised an eyebrow. "Was?" "They... well... they're farmers." Matthew then had to spend the rest of the way explaining his family's lifestyle to his boyfriend. It took a couple hours, but they finally reached what looked to be a small village. "So, this is where you used to live." Matthew chuckled. "No Gil, this is just where Papa and Dad go to trade our excess crops." Now Gilbert was real confused. "If they don't live here, then where...?" "YO MATTIE!" Matthew sighed as his older brother (by only a few minutes) came running toward them. "Hey Al." Alfred grinned, but quickly frowned at the sight of Gilbert. "Who is this?" "Alfred, this is my boyfriend, Gilbert." Alfred glared. "Why didn't you tell me you were bringing your boyfriend? I didn't get time to buy a shotgun!" "I did tell you! Twenty times!" Matthew said, ignoring Gilbert's questioning look about the shotgun. Alfred sighed. "Fine. Come on Mattie... and Gilbert." Alfred said Gilbert's name with so much venom, Gilbert was beginning to feel uneasy about agreeing to meet Matthew's family.

"So this is where you lived?" "Yes Gil, this is were I used to live." The farm wasn't really much, and as far as Gilbert could see, it was just a wheat field and some building. "Matheiu!" Matthew grinned and hugged this new man. "Papa! It's great to see you again!" Matthew's 'Papa' looked over at Gilbert. "Et who is this?" Matthew grinned and dragged Gilbert forward. "Papa, this is my boyfriend Gilbert. Gilbert, this is my papa, Francis." Gilbert gulped. "Nice to meet you, sir." Francis chuckled. "No need to be so nervous. It's nice to meet you as well Gilbert." Gilbert's tense frame began to relax. "OI FROG! WHERE DID YOU WANDER OFF THIS TIME?!" "Oh no." "Oh no? Oh no what?" A man with HUGE eyebrows ran out of the building. "Um, Birdie? Who...?" The man turned to Gilbert. "And who the hell is this?!" "Uh, Dad? This is my boyfriend, Gilbert." Matthew's 'Dad' glared at Gilbert. "I am Matthew's father, Arthur. Thank you for coming, now goodbye." Francis chuckled. "Oh, I thought Matheiu was planning on him staying." Matthew nodded timidly. "Fine, but he better help around here." "Maybe this is a bad idea." Matthew whispered. Gilbert laughed. "Oh come on Birdie, it's only a wheat field." Arthur and Alfred grinned evily. "Actually, we have to finish building the bed and breakfast, collect wool, milk, and eggs, harvest wheat, gather wood and dye, and harvest sugar from the the sugar field." Alfred explained. "Sugar field?" Alfred nodded. "We found this small lake, a little ways a way; it's perfect for growing sugar." Arthur nodded in agreement. "We also have to set a some fence and catch some chickens." Matthew sighed, deciding to explain to Gilbert. "Chickens are need for eggs, but since they don't lay them very often, the eggs in up far away from here. Having the chickens in a fenced area would make easier to gather eggs." Francis chuckled. "He is right. Eggs seem to be especially rare for us. Most of our supply is from trading wool at the nearby village." Gilbert nodded. "Ja, I can do that." Alfred chuckled darkly. "Oh, this is going to be fun!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~day~change~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Matthew sighed. Today was Gilbert's first day at work. His brother, Ludwig, always complained about his brother being lazy and unable to follow orders. If Gilbert messed up and costed them any of their crops, Arthur would, literally, kill him. "Are you sure you want to do this? We could always leave and just go back to the city." Gilbert shook his head. "Nein. I said I was going to do this, and since I'm awesome, I always follow through on what I say." "Yo! If you're so "awesome", then you would already be out here!" Matthew glared at his brother. "Seriously Al, you're starting to be annoying." "Starting? I think he's been annoying for a while!" "Like you're one to talk, Albino!" "Please! This won't be very hard!" "Yeah right! This is hero's work! Only hero's like me can do it!" "Well..." "SHUT UP!" The two turned to a very angry Matthew. "We don't have time for your 'battle of the egos', so shut up, get out there, and let's get started." The two glared at each, then turned and nodded at Matthew. "Okay, first we have to harvest the wheat, till all the dry spots, and plant new seeds." Alfred gave Gilbert a smirk, which Gilbert returned. "You ready for this?" "Of course I'm ready! I'm Awesome!"
