"I was making sure there was still gravity… What do you think I'm doing you git? I fell; not a big deal." He said getting up and dusting himself off. "You had a dream about kissing? Sounds like you Alfred…"
He chuckled lightly, "I don't always think about kissing; plus it was different this time. It was really sweet unlike the ones I get most of the time. Oh uh, sorry I should've helped you up."
Arthur blushed, 'He liked it… He doesn't know it was me but still; he liked me kissing him.' He thought to himself. He was now smiling like a fool, probably scaring Alfred, he sat down. "Eat your food so that we can drive to school."
"Thanks for reminding me…" He said stuffing his face with food, "This is really good Artie!"
"You say that like it isn't always." Arthur murmured.
"Well sometimes it is." He mumbled between bites.
Arthur sighed and finished off his food, "I'm going to take a shower and when I'm done I expect you to be ready."
He started towards the stairs before he felt Alfred's strong hand holding him, "I need one too but there won't be any hot water left in the bathroom after… And we only have the one shower so what should I do then?" he asked.
He turned back to face him, "We're not kids anymore you wanker; we can't take a shower together… That would be strange."
"Oh come on Artie; it's not like it's nothing I haven't seen before. We're best friends, and if you really want we can wear boxers or something."
Arthur blushed slightly, "F-fine…" He sat down again shaking Alfred's arm off, "Just finish eating quickly okay."
Alfred smiled in victory, "Yes; thanks Artie!" He said cheerfully as he ate the rest of the food.
Once Alfred finished his food, he grabbed Arthur from his chair and threw him over his shoulder carrying him upstairs. Artie held onto the taller boy tightly and heard the bathroom door open which made his face bright red. He was going to be taking a shower with Alfred; something he hadn't done in almost thirteen years. Alfred set his small friend on the counter and saw his red face.
"Are you okay Artie? You're really red." He stepped close and grabbed him, pressing his own forehead against the smaller boys.
Arthur's eyes widened in surprise, "Uh ya I'm fine Alfred… You can let go of me now; and start the water we don't want to be late for school.
"Okay but if you need a hero I'm always here!" He said reaching past the curtain to turn on the shower.
"Yes yes…" He mumbled, still embarrassed.
"So Artie are you going to take your clothes off or what?" Alfred asked grinning.
"Oh, ya… I'll take them off, no- Wait… Don't you know what you just said you dolt! That's bizarre don't ask it like that…"
"I guess I didn't think of it." He laughed pulling off his pj pants and throwing them in the laundry bin.
Arthur sighed but pulled off his shirt anyways; otherwise he knew that Alfred would rip it off of him. He slipped from the counter to pull off his pants but hit Alfred when he got down. Alfred grabbed his friend in desperation, and pulled him down with him instead of staying up. He hit his head against the ground and groaned while Arthur landed on his chest.
"Thanks Artie… That hurt dude, even for a hero like me."
"I'm sorry, are you okay? I didn't mean to hurt you." He apologized, tears coming to his eyes.
Alfred noticed the tears and sat up quickly holding the boy in his arms tightly, "I'm fine, please don't cry. I'm a hero and it would be bad if I let someone cry."
Arthur wrapped his arms around his blue eyed friend, "Are you sure? Cause I can always go get you some ice!" He shifted a bit to get up.
When Arthur shifted on his lap the other boy moaned loudly and grasped Arthur's shirt tightly. Arthur's eyes widened as he felt the boys hand grip him tightly, "Are you okay Alfred?"
He moaned again and his head fell onto Arthur's chest, "Ya… I'm; I'm fine… You just… You rubbed me the right way." He panted.
"What do you-" His face turned bright red, "I'm so sorry Alfred! I didn't know I really didn't!"
Arthur scrambled to get off but Alfred's grip was too tight for him to get away. But as he scrambled around it just made it worse, Alfred was starting to get really hard and he didn't know what to do. So he kissed him; once Alfred did Arthur finally stopped moving about and, surprising the younger boy, Arthur kissed him back. Alfred pulled back now blushing himself.
"You take a shower now; I-I think I'll just take one at school." Alfred said letting go of Arthur and lifting him off his lap.
"Um, okay… I won't take long so just wait for me downstairs…" He looked at the ground.
