Chapter 10: New Information

Gilbert and all the others except Ludwig were wandering around the hall during break time. A guy went by casually and smirked slightly.

"Such a rough strong group. Why is it you couldn't protect Ludwig then? Is he not important enough to your group to protect," he taunted.

"What'd you say," Allistor snapped.

"What do you know about that," Gilbert asked lowly.

"What do I know? Hmmm. I wonder," he teased.

"YOU TELL ME RIGHT FUCKING NOW! TELL ME WHAT YOU KNOW! I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU! YOU HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT DIDN'T YOU," he roared attacking him.

"GILBERT STOP," Christoph shouted prying him off the guy.

Allistor lifted the guy off the floor by his collar and slammed him against the lockers. He held him in the air pressed tightly against the cool medal. His angry green eyes glared into his soul sending chills down his spine.

"What the hell do you know about what happened? You better spit it out before Christoph lets Gilbert go. We won't stop him this time," he sneered.

"Nothing! I just heard his was jumped and thought it was odd with people like you around him all the time. Let's face it the guy's huge so how could he get hurt that badly unless it was a lot of people?! I just don't see the sense in it and that's why I said something," he rambled wildly.

"If I find out you are lying about what you know I'll hunt you down and ….well you better not give me a reason to hunt you down," he threatened leaving the threat hanging and let him go.

He ran away from the group terrified as they glared after him. What was the point in him acting the way he did? Was he one of those people that feared them so he wanted to mock them and their failure to protect one of their own? They sighed and started walking around again each one pondering who might have jumped their crazy German cutie. They went around a corner. Liam ran into someone. His hand shot out grabbing his wrist before he hit the floor.

"Are you ok," he asked holding him up. Ludwig looked up at him and nodded. Liam pulled him completely to his feet to get him back balanced. "Sorry. I didn't know you were coming around the corner."

"My fault. I wasn't looking," Ludwig mumbled. "But also, your fault for being a brick wall," he said smirking.

"Well I'm sorry I'm so stout on my feet," Liam said smirking back putting his face in his.

"You better fucking be," Ludwig said tilting his head slightly to look at him, he wasn't used to someone being taller than him other than family.

"Well I am," Liam said lifting his wrist slowly bowing his head over his hand. "My apologies," he said and kissed his knuckles.

Ludwig yanked his hand back startled and then looked flustered sputtering at him.

"You idiot go die," he cried as his face turned red and shoved by him.

"No! I want to live forever," Liam cried following him and caught his arm yanking him back. He grabbed his chin and made him look at him. "Forever with you," he said winking then grinned when his face turned darker.

"Well you can't! So, go die," Ludwig screamed shoving him away face dark red and flustered Liam grinning and opened his mouth to flirt again but got backhanded and his victim ran away. Liam held the side of his face laughing.

"Stop being such a flirt. How many times has he back handed you since you met him?"

"Eight," Liam said laughing. "But I can't help it! He's cute! You know I love cute things! I want to lock him up in my room and keep him forever!"

"That's creepy," Arthur said hiding behind Allistor. "Our brother is a creep Allie," he whispered loudly.

"I know," Allistor said patting Arthur's head.

Gilbert just felt irritated. His pulse was pounding glaring at Liam. He wasn't angry he was friends with Ludwig he was angry he flirted with him every day. He didn't like Liam romantically. He just didn't want someone flirting with Ludwig because he was protective of him especially with what all that had happened recently.

"Don't waste your time flirting with him," Gilbert said lowly.

"Why not? He's cute when he's all riled up. I want to flirt with him."

Gilbert grabbed his collar suddenly and snatched him down snarling face in his.

"Don't screw with his feelings just because you think he's cute," he barked.

"Whoa Gilbert. Look I'm sorry man I didn't mean it like that. I only have true honest friendship feelings for him and we're not like that. We hardly know each other. I would never play with his feelings. I'm not that type of person. I'm sorry that I gave you that impression," he said laying a soothing hand on his shoulder.

"Just don't," Gilbert started feeling frustrated at himself for snapping but he was so worried about Ludwig's wellbeing lately. "Don't ever mess with his feelings. Don't hurt them. Teasing if fine but if he shows any discomfort you stop it immediately."

"I promise I will stop immediately," Liam reassured.

"Danke….Sorry I went off on you like that," Gilbert muttered letting him go.

"No. Don't be I understand why you reacted like that. You have to take care of your little brother. I understand and I know you're stressed because of what's been happening so you just needed to vent some of that anger out. It's not problem. You're only being a good big brother," he grinned happily at him to show he had no hard feelings.

Gilbert smiled back at him relaxing then patted his shoulder in thanks. The group relaxed now that they knew Gilbert wouldn't be killing Liam any time soon. But as they walked around again they couldn't get the interaction out of their heads from earlier. Who jumped Ludwig and hurt him? They had a feeling they'd find out soon and would be ending all this very quickly.

Well maybe not two soon. Next chapter or two I want to introduce their sports teams and such. Because these cuties need less drama more having fun! They need a break from all this nonsense! I hope you like the chapters! Thanks for reading!
