Matthew's brother, Alfred playfully punched him the arm, laughing. "C'mon bro! Let's go play some Left 4 Dead, yeah?"

Matthew nodded and headed to the living room with his brother. Gilbert watched them both, feeling slight jealousy within him. He wanted to play with Matthew, but he can't. Not while his brother is around. Nobody knows about Gilbert except for Matthew. They kept it a secret for a reason, and Gilbert just doesn't like people anyway. Just Mattie.

As the two played their videogame, Gilbert smiled deviously, getting some ideas. He stood by the TV, only being seen by Matthew. The blond would have questioned what the other was doing, but he didn't want his brother to think he's some lunatic talking to the air. Gilbert somehow made himself phase into the television and a zombie appeared in the game that looked just like Gilbert! Alfred tried to defeat it, only to fail. Gilbert took out both Alfred and Matthew, and when they restarted the game, he came back out of the TV, laughing that strange laugh of his. Matthew scowled at him, Alfred not noticing a single thing.

~X~ The next Day ~X~

"Gilbert, what was that crap you pulled with me yesterday?"

"What crap, Mattie? I have no clue what you are talking about." Gilbert couldn't help but smirk, especially since Matthew was scowling at him with his hands on his hips like a housewife scolding her husband.

"Gilbert, you know what you did. I can see it in your face."

Gilbert suddenly started laughing, and Matthew raised an eyebrow. "What's so funny?"

"You look like sassy woman!" Gilbert continued laughing as Matthew's scowl deepened.

"Gil," Matthew shook his head, placing the palm of his hand on his forehead. "I'm serious. My brother could have found out about you! You're lucky that he's so gullible."

The demon's laughter reduced to small chuckles. "I'm sorry, Matt, but I was bored and it looked like fun to join in your little game!"

The blond just sighed. "If you wanted to play, then you could've just asked and we could do it when nobody was around. Nobody can find out about you. People would freak and the government will probably take you away and dissect you or some shit! I worry about you, Gil."

Gilbert smiled at his companion's concern. "I know, Mattie… I know. Tell ya what. Just for you, I'll be more careful, ja?"

Matthew smiled and hugged his demon friend. "Thank you, Gil."

Gilbert hugged back with a faint blush on his face. "Anything for you, leib…"

Matthew pulled away and tilted his head. "What does 'leib' mean?"

The demon blushed. "U-uh… Nothing, Mattie. It doesn't mean anything! It's just something in German friends call each other… Ja."

Matthew wondered why his friend looked so flustered. Gilbert is usually cool and collected (And also pretty cocky), but never gets flustered. Weird…. He just shrugged it off. It's probably nothing anyway.

~X~

Later on, when it was dark out, probably in the early hours of the morning, Gilbert and Matthew were playing Left 4 Dead. Matthew was obviously winning, since he has more experience in the game. Suddenly he heard footsteps heading to the room and Matthew paused the game.

"Hey! You didn't let me kno-"

"SSHH!" Matthew clamped a hand over the demon's mouth. Suddenly, his brother's voice sounded.

"Mattie…? Is someone here with you?"

"Shit! Shit! Shit! Gilbert, hide! He's coming!" The blond said in a hoarse whisper, then shouted out to his brother. "Nobody's in here but me!"

Gilbert disappeared, dropping the game controller just as Alfred walked into the room.

"Hey Matt, were you talking to yourself?"

Matthew just blinked. "Ye-yeah…. Why…?"

Alfred chuckled "You're weird, bro! Hey can I play? It looks like you had it up on second player for me! Cool, dude!" His brother grabbed the controller as Matthew sighed inwardly.

Gilbert watched as Alfred took his place, envious. Of course his best friend's stupid brother had to ruin his fun-time with Mattie. Of-fuckin-course! Gilbert floated to Matthew's room, fluttering his white leathery wings. He flew out the window and onto the roof, where he hung out the rest of the night, thinking about how much he hated Matthew's brother.
