"Why did you ask that kid out? You know him or something?"
Ludwig nodded as he unlocked his car. Gilbert got into the passenger seat and rolled his eyes when Ludwig gave him a look to buckle up. Doing so anyway he sat back and relaxed a little now that the first day of school was over.
"I thought so. It would be so unlike you to ask someone out so fast. But he didn't seem to remember you."
"I didn't think he would. I only talked to him on a few times but he was always in a hurry to class. I saw him today and saw my chance."
"We have to go home now? Can't you drop me off at Francis's house?"
"No. We have homework."
"Did you call someone to make sure we had all the same classes? I couldn't sneak out once!"
"Ja I did. I know your ways."
Whining Gilbert looked out the window and sighed. "Bitte, bruder, take me to Francis's house."
"No."
Once home Ludwig called to their mother and father and when no one answered he went to the dry erase board and saw a message that they wouldn't be home until seven that night and it was four thirty. Looking back at Gilbert he told him they would take a break and then do their homework.
Going up stairs Gilbert sighed taking off his shoulder bag and dropping it inside his door. Going in his room he plopped down on his bed and started to doze off when he heard a car pull up to the driveway. Nearly flying off his bed he ran down stairs to the laundry and started to put a load in and wash and then ran to the kitchen and started to pull things out of dinner.
Gott forbid he wasn't cleaning or cooking when they got home. Why had they come back early? Setting out a pan and then a pot he started the fire when they entered the kitchen in a hurry as if they were hoping that he wouldn't be there.
"Aren't you getting dinner ready yet?"
"Yes, Mutter."
"Hurry up then!"
"Yes, Mutter."
They continued to belittle him until the door slammed and the three looked up. Ludwig was back from his run and he was frown deeply at them. Walking over he got a glass of water and then sat down. Gilbert said nothing knowing that his brother was just waiting for them to say something so he continued to cook the food.
"I'm home!" Alfred called as he hurried inside.
"Welcome home, honey," He heard his mom called. "Dinner will be ready at seven."
"Alright. I'm gonna be upstairs in my room."
Going up stairs Alfred set the action figure down on the desk and thought about Ludwig, the new student and blushes slightly. He still couldn't believe he had been asked out and by someone so handsome too! Shaking his head he went to see if he had anything to wear since he never went to anything at school.
After a good hour acting like an idiot Alfred thought about getting something for the dance but for now he wanted to watch some shows and then eat dinner before getting his homework done. Going down stairs he greeted his family and then greeted him and he sat down next to his twin and they all started to eat.
"How was your day, Al?" Matthew asked taking a bite of his food.
"Pretty good, how about you?"
"Just fine… I got to draw today in class."
"That's cool! What'ca draw in class?"
Unlike Alfred, Matthew had been born special. His brain had only gotten to the age of a five year old so he had to go to different school then his twin. However Alfred loved his brother and was glad there was somewhere he could go and be safe.
After dinner Alfred did his homework before laying down and eating some snacks and playing video games online until it was almost midnight and then he went to sleep excited about the next day.
It wasn't as fun as he thought it was going to be.
"Hello, Fredka!"
"Ah, shit." Alfred cursed. "Go away Ivan and let me get to class in peace!"
The taller male came up to him. "I don't think so. I rather be here and do this."
Glaring as he was pushed Alfred flipped him off. "Fuck off! Why can't you leave me alone?!"
Ivan just grabbed at him and touched his side and stomach pulling at the rolls there. "You so big I could never miss you! Look how you jiggle!"
Feeling self-conscious Alfred yanked away. "Sh-hut up! You don't know anything!"
"I know your fat, stupid, and ugly. By the way I heard the new student asked you out on a date."
"What's it to you?!"
Laughing Ivan turned and walked away waving his hand. "I heard it was on a dare."
"It wasn't!"
Ivan laughed as he turned the corner as heard Alfred angrily stormed off. Looking back he smirk and turned around and almost jumped seeing the new exchange German standing and it was clear he had seen and heard everything.
The two faced off looking at each other glaring. Then something happened. Gilbert came walking up to stop by Ludwig and looked up at the other student. Ivan eyes shifted to his and for a second before Ivan had a sudden idea.
"I must be going now." The Russian smiled and tuened.
Once Ivan was gone around the corner did Ludwig look at his brother. "Stay away from him."
"Who was that bruder?"
"He's in our class. You stay away from him."
"Okay, fine, I'll stay away from him."
"Good. Let's go."
"Hey, Ludwig, wait!" Gilbert said hurrying after him.
Stopping Ludwig pinched the bridge of his nose. It was always something Gilbert knew he wouldn't like when he used his real name instead of West.
"I talked to consular and they had auto shop here and I wanted to take it and next week their changing my schedule so I can take it."
"We'll talk about it. Come on."
'Yes!'
Looking over his paper Alfred sighed. This report didn't come out the way he wanted it too. Instead it was worse. he was hoping his Mom wasn't to disappointed. Putting it into his backpack Alfred looked up as the bell rang.
Heading out to go eat he paused. No Ivan to torment him? That was strange. No wait. Ivan must be hiding someone to scare him. That had to be it. No way that guy wouldn't just leave him alone. Looking around everywhere as he went to the cafeteria Alfred was jumping at the sight of his shadow.
When he did make it he confused more. Where was that big lug?
Gilbert placed the goggles and gloves on before using the saw to cut the wood into two pieces. Looking it over he blew the wood dust off and turned around took it back to his work station to continue his project and when he got there he noticed someone else there measuring something.
Pausing Gilbert blinked before recognizing the other as the person in the hallway and his brother's stern warning about staying away from him. But the other was sitting right next to his seat. Looking back as if his brother would somehow jump out of nowhere he looked back and for a second took a step backward when the other noticed him.
"Hello," Ivan smiled. "Aren't you going to sit down?"
"Yeah."
After taking his seat Gilbert started to focus on his work in front of him but he couldn't shake the feeling of eyes watching him. Glancing over he felt his cheeks blush as Ivan looked at him with a soft smile. Looking away Gilbert went back to his work and jumped up when he heard the bell ring and hightailed it out of there.
Ivan wasn't surprised. His brother probably told him to stay away from him. Well that could be easily fixed. After all Ivan always had a way of getting what he wanted and right now he wanted to make Alfred's boyfriend angry and break apart two brothers.
Alfred sipped on his shake as he walked down the hall looking for one of his teachers. He needed to ask about a problem he just couldn't figure out. As he did he was caught by surprise as Ludwig turned the corner .
"Alfred, I was wondering where you were. I wanted to ask if you still wanted to go on Friday. I know I asked suddenly and I hope I didn't force it on you."
"No, no way, dude, I do want to go!" Alfred cursed himself for answering so quick. "I, uh, was wondering… maybe you want to hang out today? After school maybe…?"
"Ja, that would be fine."
"Sweet. SO are you heading to World History next?"
"Yes, I am."
"Me too. Want to wlak together?"
"Ja."
Alfred blushed softly as Ludwig held out his elbow and slowly he took it shaking his head to get rid of the blush.
Once at the class, Ludwig let Alfred go in first and pulled out his phone texting Gilbert to take the bus home and that he would be out with Alfred.
Back in the woodshop class Ivan looked down at the sound of a phone vibrating. Picking it up he noticed the new message and opened it. Smirking he couldn't believe his luck. This was Gilbert's phone. More so the sender read from Bruder and the text was signed Ludwig.
Deleting the text he slipped it into his pocket.
Gilbert panting a little as he looked up at the sun. it was sure getting hot and his hoodie wasn't going to keep him safe any long form the sun. Looking around he rushed over to a tree and waited. He was in trouble now. He lost his phone and couldn't find it.
School had been over for almost twenty minutes and Ludwig still had come to meet him by the double doors by the parking lot. Cheeks red from the sun Gilbert cursed being an albino. It was so hard to be outside. Shaking his head he thought of going back inside when he the door open and he expected his brother but got a surprise.
"Ah, I was hoping to find you." Ivan said walking up to him. "Here you dropped this and I've been have trouble finding you to give it back."
"My phone!" Gilbert took it. "Danke! I thought I wouldn't see it again."
"You're welcome." Ivan pulled out a water bottle. "Here You look like you can use it more than me."
"Danke again. Um, have you… seen my brother around?"
"I saw him and Alfred leave about half an hour ago."
"What?!" Gilbert gapped at him. "Are you sure?"
"Da. Well, I'll be in the gym if you need me." Ivan smiled and turned and left.
For a while Gilbert thought about taking the bus but then he would be too late to make dinner. Looking at the Russian he rushed foreward.
"Hey! Ivan?"
"Da?" Ivan asked not turning around.
"Can you give me a ride home?"
"Of course."
"Thanks a lot!" Gilbert smiled.
However the Russian was smirking before turn and smiling at him.
Yes, Ludwig would pay for stealing Alfred form him.
