I felt like my head had been punched VERY hard. This sucks. As my sleepy haze gradually went away I observed my surroundings, oh cool I managed to get home! Wait, I dont remember getting home... what? My thoughts were interrupted (that happens alot lately) by the door getting slammed open to reveal an angry Scottsman a.k.a my brother. Oh. "Hey Allistor..." I laughed nervously. He only seemed to prickle at my voice.
"DONT YOU FICKIN 'HEY ALLISTOR' ME YOU LIL SHITE!" Allistor roared in anger, not at all helping my painful headache, "YOU ARE IN SERIOUS TROUBLE MR, YOU HAVE THE NERVE TO FIRST, MAKE FRANCIS WAIT FOR HOURS FOR YOU AND SECONDLY TO MAKE HIM HAVE TO CALL ME TO HELP SEARCH FOR YOUR DRUNKEN ARSE!"
"Oww could you shut your bloody mouth! I only went to a party and do you seriously expect me to go with Froggy Mc Gay? I mean come on!" I groaned.
"Well you made Francis wait FOR HOURS! THIS IS THE LAST STRAW ARTHUR, THE LAST STRAW!"
"Yeah yeah, sue me"
"I THINK ILL DO SOMETHING WORSE TO YOUR SORRY ARSE! THERE ARE GONNA BE SOME NEW RULES AROUND HERE" Allistor declared with incredible loudness that only seemed to be amplified by Arthurs splitting headache. "Rule one, you are banned from all partys, I dont care if you shall die if you dont fucking go, you cant. Rule two, either me or Francis or any of my other friends has to take you home from school, no time with Jack and no rebelious actions, and finaly ever Saturday you shall accompany me with my mates to the bar." I froze at my brothers last rule, oh fuck. That bar is where the pervets are... they are no doubt still wasting lives away there still... Shite.
I nodded numbly and pulled the covers above my spinning head, I so didnt need this during a hangover. Suddenly anger surged through me, and as soon as I had said it I regretted it deeply, "AT LEAST I AINT A BASTARD CHILD WHO TRIES TOO HARD TO BE WITH HIS BROTHER" the latter part had no real footing but the rest was plenty true. I could see a vein bulge in Allistors head causing him to shout;

"YOU WERENT EVEN WANTED YOU SHITE CHILD, I KNEW THEY REGRETTED HAVING SUCH A TROUBLESOME KID SINCE THEY SET EYES ON YOU! YOU NEVER HELPED DAD, YOU TIPPED HIM OFF THE EDGE, YOU MADE HIM DO IT! YOU FUCKING SHIT!"
I regretted saying it as soon as the last swear left my mouth. "Go die in a hole" I heard Arthur murmur with sad emotion in his voice. I automatcally backed out of the door to chuck on a jacket and go to the bar. Fuck what I said, I am ment to be able to control my emotions I mean what was I thinking! He is still a kid! How old is he? 16? Four fucking years younger! I need a drink... No this is what dad did, just drink until it all piled up and fell straight back onto him, I need to talk to someone... Gillbert? Toni? Franics? Francis. He knows the most about Arthur and he can sort it out, good idea ill call him over and calm Arthur out. I grabbed from my pocket and rang the number...

Fuck him for leaving, fuck dad for leaving, fuck mum for leaving, fuck everyone in the whole bloody world! Who does he think he is? I felt my eyes getting wet. No, I cant let him see me cry he'll call me fuckin' wimp the shite he is! Arthur got up from his bed with no where particular in mind to go, all he knew is that he needed to get the fuck out of this place, if he could he would fly all the way back to Britain but tickets were exspensive and he and his brother had already barely gotten by so he settled for going to Jacks house. Australia is better than America after all. Outside it was bright and early and everything that made noise annoyed him, even the birds annoyed him for fucks sake! At Jacks he had only just realised he was wearing the clothes from the night before, Jack would think he was crazy. Oh well, cant exactly change now ey.
Arthur knocks on the door to find Jacks mom, Arthur like Jacks mom, she never asked questions that he didnt want to answer. She was one of those stay at home moms who like to bake cookies and ask how your day was when you got home, thats the sort of mom he wish he had. "Oh hello Arthur darling! No school for you today Im guessing, well you are welcome to stay until Jack is back, no doubt he will be mad that you didnt go to school with him... Im guessing you got an equally bad hangover?"
"Unfortunately..."
"Ahh young boys today!" Jacks mom chuckled to herself. "Oh Arthur you are welcome to play on Jacks PS4 to pass the time if you wish im sure he wouldnt mind you getting him a high score!"
"Thanks Ma'am" Arthur grinned, running into the house and hopping up the stairs, he loved Jacks house, firstly it wasnt his and secondly it was a house with stairs, not a flat.

When Jack was home he was not only pissed about Arthurs absence at school but he was pissed that he had woken up in school at 6:30am just when teachers had began to arrive. Arthur laughed his arse off as Jack proceeded to tell the story of him trying to explain to the teachers why he was asleep ontop of their desk. Jack also asked no questions about Arthurs random visit, this kind of visit had happend before.
By 8pm Arthur had been fed a wonderful home cooked dinner and had talked small talk with Jacks proper father. He felt that now he had to go home, no matter what wrath awaited him. He said his thank you's and goodbyes and chose to walk home rather than taking the bus. It was dark outside and he used his phone torch to make sure not to stumble on the roots from the canopy of trees. His phone had only had a few messages from Jack and other friends from school but of course, none from Allistor. He doesnt even care.
An hour later he was standing in front of his flat building with conflicting emotions. Did he really want to talk to Allistor? no. But what choice did he have? none, exactly. Well here it goes. Arthur walked slowly up the stairs, avoiding the lift to make it a longer trek to his flat and to avoid Allistor for a few minutes longer. He stared straight at his door, number 32 on the 5th floor. He stayed there and any onlooker would have thought him to be crazy. He stood there until suddenly the door flew open with a Frenchman in the entrance. "Im going out to look for Arthur, I dont care if you say he will come bac-" As the Frenchman noticed Arthurs existence he envoloped him into a hug.
"WHAT THE BLOODY HELL DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING" Arthur tried to say but it came out muffled by the strong hug.
"Mon cher! I was so worried! Even your brother was worried! But do not fret I am here to take care of your hormonal problems!" The frenchman chanted, with no sign of stopping. "You can talk to me, I shall not be as heartless as Alli-"
"Shut up Frog I dont want your help!"
"You wound me mon cher!" Francis wilted slightly and walked into the flat dragging Arthur with him. Francis sat with new confidence on the sofa and sat Arthur onto his lap, Arthur blushed and started to try escape but the frenchmans grasp was too tight. "So, tell me your problems!" Francis giggled. This was hardly the angry mood Arthur was expecting. "Well I thought I could start actually" Allistor said as he appeared in the doorway.
