A/N: Okay so I've only just made an account on so I'm kind of new to all of this XD
I had this idea for a multi-chapter PruAus story, I'll try my hardest to update it but my writers block can get pretty bad at times. Reviews are very welcome, I love hearing from people so let me know how I did :3

Roderich sighed "What more could you possibly need? All you seem to do is shop!"

Elizabeta laughed "I just need to get one or two small essentials"

He smirked "It's a wonder that you have any money at all, if I didn't know you so well, I might think you had a secret source of income…" Eliza just rolled her eyes before entering the chemists, followed, reluctantly, by Roderich.

"That'll be £5.99" Gilbert muttered absent-mindedly as he served what felt like the millionth customer that day.

"Okay" the customer scowled and pulled out his wallet.

Startled by the customer's familiar voice, Gilbert looked up "Uh- wha- Luddy, what are you doing here?"

"Don't call me that!" The serious, blue-eyed German snapped "I'm shopping, what else would I be doing here?"

Gilbert chuckled "Whatever, kleinen bruder. You know, they're doing a 3 for 2 deal on feminine hygiene products if you're-"

"Fuck you" Ludwig muttered, dropping a five pound note on the counter.

"I don't think we sell anything for controlling PMS though" Gilbert put the money in the till and gave his brother his purchases in a small, white carrier bag.

"Keep the change" The blonde, fourteen-year-old mumbled.

"Yeah…" Gilbert closed the till, his eyes and attention drifting elsewhere. Ludwig scowled at his mesmerised brother, then followed his gaze to find a slim, dark-haired boy lingering awkwardly at the end of the nearest aisle. Gilbert tilted his head to one side, examining the beautiful specimen before him; a delicate, slender figure with floppy dark brown hair, flawless white skin and big, puppy-dog eyes behind a pair of adorable glasses. Ludwig watched as Gilbert's expression changed from one of total awe to one of annoyed disappointment as the boy began talking to a pretty brunette girl who was examining the small print on the back of a tin of hairspray "That had better not be his girlfriend" Gilbert scowled.

"Not this again…" Ludwig rolled his eyes as Gilbert came out from behind the checkout counter to get a closer look "Fine, go and make a fool of yourself if you really must"

"£10" Gilbert looked over at Ludwig, mischief residing behind his eyes.

"What?"

"£10 on me being able to get his number"

"No"

"Aw c'mon Luddy"

"I told you not to call me that!"

"I need the money. Mum doesn't give me allowance anymore"

"Yeah and we all know why that is…"

"Whatever. Please"

"No"

"Pretty please, Luddy, just for fun"

"Call me that one more time and-"

"Fine! I'll stop calling you that if we have a deal"

"Okay, whatever, you may as well just give me the money now"

"Deal"

"Did you even hear what I just-"

"Shhh… watch and learn, kleinen bruder" Gilbert winked as he made his way down the aisle towards the pair of teens "Is there anything I can help you with?"

The girl looked up from reading the back of another tin of hairspray "Yes, can you tell me if this product was tested on animals or not? It doesn't say anything on the label" She handed him the bright pink tin.

"Er…" Gilbert snuck a glance at the boy next to her "N-no. No, not at all" he shook his head, having no idea whatsoever as he handed it back to her.

"Thank you" She took it and smiled.

Gilbert smirked, eyeing up her friend "You dragged your boyfriend out shopping with you?"

The girl seemed taken aback by the question "Uh- n-no! He's not my boyfriend!" She shook her head.

The boy shook his head too "N-no we're just friends" he laughed nervously. Gilbert nodded. He might have been gay, but he knew that the girl with the long brown hair wasn't exactly average-looking. The boy would have to be mad, or just too shy or… possibly…

"So… are you from round here?" Gilbert asked, gaining eye contact with the boy.

"Yeah, we live nearby, why?" The girl smiled curiously but Gilbert didn't even look at her.

"Oh, right, you see… I'm new here. My family moved here like last week and I got myself a summer job here but I'll be starting at the local high school after the holidays and y'know…"

"Oh, brilliant!" She beamed "Roddy and I both attend the local school"

"Aha…" He was only half listening. Less than half, much less, about an eighth…. Make that a sixteenth. His eyes were fixed on 'Roddy's', the boy was blushing and undecided as to what to do with his hands but never broke eye contact "So… what are your names?"

"I'm Elizabeta but people call me Eliza and he's Roderich but I call him Roddy~" Gilbert only heard 'Roderich' and 'Roddy', they were all that mattered.

"A-are you two okay?" The girl smirked. Jeez, was she actually deliberately trying to intercept their intensive eye sex?

"Yeah sure" Gilbert pulled away after Roderich turned his face towards Eliza's, blushing furiously, his eyes fixed on the ground "I'll do you a discount on that" he smiled, making towards the counter. He took the money from her and exchanged it for the tin of hairspray, a packer of hair clips and a tube of cherry-flavoured cough sweets in a little white bag. Taking a pen, he scribbled his number on the back of a discarded receipt. Discreetly, he handed it to Roderich while Eliza was distracted, pouring all her remaining coins into different charity collection tins. When she'd finished and they'd agreed to meet up at some later date in the long summer weeks, they left, leaving Gilbert behind the checkout counter feeling a little too pleased with himself. So pleased, he almost didn't notice when the boy he'd handed his number to came rushing back in and scribbled several digits on another discarded receipt. Without a word, he turned to leave for the second time.

"Is Saturday okay?" Gilbert called after him. The boy turned and smiled "I'll take that as a yes" the German muttered, glancing over at his dumbfounded brother who'd been stood there the whole time. Gilbert chuckled at the younger's expression as he did his little victory dance round the small space behind the counter.

"I hate you" Ludwig pulled his wallet out, dumping a ten pound note on the counter.

"That's very sweet of you, Luddy" he ruffled his younger brother's hair "Now, do you reckon he prefers Rom-Com or Horror?"
