Forbidden Love
High School Hetalia Romance
Part One (Annaliese)
Twins
"Remember if you need anything you can just text me and I will come no matter what. Stay away from Gilbert at all cost and staying away from Ivan is probably a good idea to. You got it Annaliese?" my brother Vash asked in a rush as we walked down the hall. I rolled my eyes, the way he talked you would have thought it was my first day of preschool.
"You worry to much brother dear." I teased, pinching his cheek gently before opening my locker. I saw the strained look on his face and I gave him a small half smile. "Vash please its not my first day back, besides I am a big girl now. I can take care of myself." I said repositioning my curls as I stared at the mirror in my locker.
"I know, I know it just … its just I worry." Vash said grinding his teeth at the tiny show of emotion. I put a hand on his face fondly and smiled warmly at him. His over protectiveness bothered me to the ends of the earth at times but it was still nice to know my big brother still cared about me. "I guess I should leave to go check on Lili though. I will see you later Anna!" he called already running down the hall to out little sisters class room.
I couldn't help but laugh as I watched him go, he was always so paranoid that if he wasn't by our side that some guy was going to attack us. The thought was nice but his reactions were always funny to watched. I forced myself to focus on the day ahead of me though as I shifted my bag over my shoulder, slamming my locker shut with my hip.
As I was walking down the hall with my mind in other places I spotted a pair of bright blue eyes I had become familiar with, Mattie. He sat next to me in first period and was one of my favorite pets to play with. I know it sounds bad but he was just so sweet and it was cute the way he turned bright red when ever I came near him.
I walked up to him and pinched his cheeks saying "Oh there you are Mattie! I have been looking every where for you." causing him to turn a dangerous shade of red. I released his cheeks and crossed my arms over my chest with a pout "You weren't avoiding me were you?" I teased slightly. By the strange color he was turning I thought he might pass out but luckily he didn't.
"N-no I w-wasn't avoiding y-you Annaliese! I was j-just walking with my b-brother Alfred is all." Mattie managed to stutter finally. I then turned and saw for the first time someone who just had to be his twin. The same blonde hair, sparkling sapphire eyes, and glasses. I took in the pair of them both and noticed all the similarities along with the differences. "Um are you r-ready to go to first period?" Mattie finally asked when I didn't say anything.
I took a mental note to take the chance to get to know his brother better before saying in a purr "Of course Mattie, sorry its just I thought Arthur was your only brother. Plus you guys are twins that's just magnificent." It was true I had a lot of guys I liked to tease and play around with but I had never had a pair of twins in my collection before. Well I almost did once but they didn't like playing my games so I just had my brother take care of them for me.
I finally turned around with a wave of my hand and started to walk away, calling out behind me "I think I have to freshen up my make up first though, I will see you in class Mattie oh and you to Alfred!" I made my way to the closest bathroom, just managing to doge my friend Feliks, who always seemed to want to know what was going on in my life, and started to re apply my make up in the mirror. It didn't really need to be fixed but it gave me some time to think before first period.
I thought about the way Alfred's eyes had reminded me of Mattie's a first but now that I stopped to think about them they were different. It was hard to explain since they were the same shade of blue but his eyes seemed more full of light, more playful, more happy in a way I guess you could say. I liked Mattie's eyes but there was something about his brothers that were just so … captivating.
Before I knew it the bell had wrong and I jumped, I had just spent the past five minutes thinking about some guys eyes. What was wrong with me! I shoved my eyeliner back into my purse unceremoniously as I rushed down the hall to my class. Hey I may not seem like it but I actually want to be in class on time so I could learn. Besides math was actually my favorite subject … not that I would ever admit it.
I forced my breath to remain normal as I entered the class and took my seat, trying to hide the fact I was clutching a stitch in my side. I began to work on the warm up on the board and didn't look up til I was done, and the bell had rung. I gave a smile to Mattie who kept shooting nervous glances in my direction and I turned to see the seat next to me, which I had been told was Alfred's was empty. "Hey Mattie where is your brother?" I asked in a whisper to him.
"I don't even want to know ..." he stated with a sigh as he set down his pencil. I couldn't help but glimpse his work and I muttered under my breath that he did it wrong. "Huh d-did you say something Annaliese?" he asked looking at me with his head slightly cocked to one side.
"Oh its just ..." I bit on my lip trying to find the next words to say. I didn't want to sound like a brainiac but I just couldn't let Mattie fail on his warm up. "I um got different answers then you is all." I said with a shrug trying to act like it was no big deal. Mattie stared down at his paper then reentered them into his calculator.
"Maple syrup ..." he muttered in his own ay of cussing as he quickly erased his previous answers. I nodded slightly to myself seeing that he now had them all correct. "Y-you know you really are smart Annaliese." Mattie said with a slight blush rising to his cheeks as the teacher came and collected out papers.
I turned away from him, hiding my own blush and said "I just plugged it into the calculator is all. It doesn't take much of a brain to do that Mattie." He simply shrugged but he also smiled at me. Not the nervous smile he usually wore but an understanding smile, a smile a friend would give to you. I turned my head away from him again and huffed, leaning my head on my hand.
I had been friends with guys before and had only gotten hurt, thats why now they were nothing more then my pets. It was easier on both of that way, yet the smile Mattie had just given me had been genuine and he really was such a sweetie … maybe it wouldn't hurt to just have one guy friend? I forcibly shook my head of these thoughts, I was not going to go down this road again.
So trying to ignore the strange feeling his smile had given me I let my mind wonder, with my thoughts again ending up on the empty chair beside me. I had just saw Alfred before class, where could he have disappeared to so quickly? I spent the rest of the class doodling on my paper, and trying to nonchalantly take my notes, when the bell signaling the end of class pulled me from my day dreams. I packed away my stuff slowly, hoping maybe if I did a certain creeper ex of mine would take the hint and just go to his class. Of course this didn't work though.
As soon as I stepped foot out of the safety of the class I felt a strong, familiar arm wrap around my shoulders. "Hey there baby were you trying to avoid me again?" Gilbert asked with his usual cocky smile. I shoved his arm off of me and started walking pretending I didn't even see him there. Which was kind of hard because even though he was a jerk he was a hot jerk.
He continued to talk to me as I walked through the halls until I finally turned around and glared at him. "Would you leave me alone Gil? I actually have a class I need to go to!" I hissed at him, shoving him away from me. It didn't work though, I never really thought it would, and even brought a grin to his face.
"Now there is my girl, still as feisty as ever ~" he cooed at me with adoring eyes. It figures he would find it adorable when I got violent, he always was a strange guy. That was originally why I went out with him but now it just seemed to annoy me to no end. Just when I thought he would never leave me alone his face dropped as he stared past my shoulder.
I turned around and grinned as I saw my friend, Elizaveta, standing behind me with fire in her eyes. "What have I told you about being a stalker Gilbert!" she cried out as she came to stand next to me, looking dangerous as she put her hands on her hips. Gilbert tried to come back with a smart ass comment but as soon as she took a step towards him he dashed down the hall.
Her and I laughed and I gave her a high five. "You got that boy whipped big time Eli." I said as we fell into step next to each other in the hall. It was true to, even though Gilbert was terrified of her he was still one of her best friends and willing to do anything for her. Well most anything, he still had yet to stop calling, texting, and following me around. But that was mostly because he was just stubborn and couldn't accept the fact I didn't want to take him back.
"Yeah I know but its not all that hard. Gil acts big and tough but when it comes down to it he is a big old softy." she said and I couldn't stop myself from laughing again. Only Elizaveta could possibly think that someone like Gilbert was a softie.
"What ever you say Eli." I said shaking my head with a smile. Then I remembered about Alfred and decided if I should ask anyone about him Elizaveta was the girl to ask. Well besides Feliks of course but he cost way to much for me. "Hey Elizaveta do you know much about a boy named Alfred? Apparently he is Mattie's brother." I asked her trying to make my voice sound casual. Most of the time I would trick the information I needed out of guys but there was something different about Al, he intrigued me for some reason.
"Yeah I guess but just about everyone knows him though. Hes on the football and track team though he is kind of lazy, has an obsession with food, has a great body, every girl at school wants him, and on top of all that he is actually a fairly nice guy." she said listing of the facts on her fingers as if she were reciting from some biography of him. Before I had a chance to ask how she knew all this she shrugged and said "I did some research on him since he has only ever dated on girl before but hes straighter then a ruler. Quite a disappointment if you ask me."
I nodded in slight agreement, as much as I loved Yaoi I was sort of glad Alfred wasn't gay. It just meant that he would be all the more fun to play with, though the whole only one girlfriend part caught me off guard. There had to be a reason behind it but then again, it just made the game that much more fun to play.
A/N: Okay so I have decided that I am going to have two parts to each chapter, at least I am going to try. One from Al's POV and the other from Anna's. I hope this shines a bit more light on her and her character and though I personally think she is a bit of a, for lack of a better word, bitch I kind of like her. How about you? Remember reviews are love, see you next time my pretty little viewers!
