Sorry guys for the delay! I had a family problem called my papa shattered his elbow. Now I have to do house and yard work for him. In good news, I graduated Friday! From 8th grade… and I still have to go back to school. Okay so I am in a sad and pissed of mood thanks to my friend so honestly I don't know how this will turn out. I had to reread my story, I feel pathetic. ~Emz
Chapter 5
Matthew's life in America was different from his life in Canada. Was it for the good? That he didn't quite know. He was still the invisible guy that no one really noticed, but now he has his brother along side of him. That might just make it worse. Alfred looked a lot like Matthew and Matthew got mistaken a lot for Alfred. Did he like that? No, he absolutely hated it. Usually Matthew would wonder what was wrong with them, but Alfred has been quiet lately so it was kind of hard to tell them apart. Well yesterday he did come back a lot more like himself, so that was a good note. After a week of settling into his new house Matthew's dad enrolled him into the high school. He was back in school by the beginning of the next week. He really didn't have that many friends. He did have Kiku; who was a great friend to Alfred, but that was really it. He did have Francis flirt with him, but honestly who doesn't? He probably even flirts with his grandmother! All in all, Matthew liked Canada better. There weren't any good hockey teams here! He really needed to get himself signed up for hockey, before he lost his mind.
Matthew trudged down the hallway lugging around his books. Before Matthew knew it he was on the floor with his books all over the floor and a pair of red eyes staring at him. Matthew just blinked and put a name to the red eyed person. It was Gilbert, the 'most awesomeness' guy in school. Matthew quickly started gathering up his books and seemed to be missing some but a white hand handed him some.
"Sorry kid! The awesome me didn't see you there!" Gilbert said holding out a hand for Matthew. Matthew shrugged off the hand and got up on his own.
"Its fine," Matthew whispered.
"I don't think I have seen you before!" Gilbert said. No one has Matthew thought.
"I just moved here," Matthew muttered.
"You look an awful a lot like Alfred," Gilbert pointed out happily connecting the look a likes.
"He's my brother,"
"That makes sense! Well I am the awesome Gilbert! But I am pretty sure you knew that!" Gilbert said full of himself.
"I'm Matthew,"
"Matthew, Mattie….." Gilbert said testing out the names. "I know! I will call you birdie! You are cute like a birdie! That's your new nickname! But don't let anyone else call you that okay! That is saved for the awesome me!" Gilbert said proudly.
"Uhhhh, okay?" Matthew said. No one has ever given him a nickname. Sure, Alfred calls him Mattie, but that's it.
"Well the awesome me has to go! See you late birdie!" Gilbert said as he waved away. Matthew waved and smiled to himself.
When the final bell rung Matthew went outside to the parking lot. It was a nice day so he decided to walk home, but a certain person caught his attention.
"Hey Birdie! How about you come over here!" Gilbert called from his spot. Matthew walked over to him. Gilbert was with the rest of the bad touch trio, his brother, and the Italian twins, all of them being in 10th grade. Gilbert would be in 11th if he didn't fail 7th grade. So lucky for him, he was the first 10th grader to have a car. His car just so happens to be a black pick-up truck with flames covering it on the sides, and on the hood the words 'the awesome me mobile'.
"Hi Gilbert," Matthew said as he got to the group. Gilbert put an arm around his shoulders laughing.
"Hey idiots! This is my birdie Matthew!" Gilbert exclaimed. I just gave a small wave and looked down.
"Hola! I am Antonio! And this little tomato is Lovi~!"Antonio said.
"You stupid bastard! Don't call me that!" Lovino said punching Antonio. Antonio just shrugged it off and smiled. Such a weird couple Matthew thought to himself.
"Bonjour mon ami! Je m'appelle Francis!" Francis said kissing Matthew's hand. Matthew blushed and looked down, again.
"I am Feliciano! Nice to meet you! Do you like pasta? I love pasta!" Feliciano rambled on. Matthew just smiled at the overly happy Italian as Lovino glared at his brother.
"Shut up Feliciano, you are giving the awesome me an unawesome headache!" Gilbert said. "Oh and the guy that face read 'Don't mess with me because I have a huge stick up my ass' is my brother Ludwig!" Ludwig smacked his brother in the head before nodding at Matthew. Gilbert has some really weird friends Matthew noted.
"Well the awesome me-" Gilbert started before a loud voice interrupted him.
"MATTIE! I FORGOT MY HOUSE KEYS! CAN I TAKE YOURS?" Alfred screamed from the other side of the parking lot. Arthur slapped him and told him not to yell. Matthew sighed to himself and grumbled. Alfred ran over to him and Arthur followed him more at a suitable pace.
"Here, but don't lose these or you will get a visit from Mr. Puck okay?" Matthew smirked while handing him the keys. Alfred's face paled.
"I don't want that visit again, so yeah you are good!" Alfred said.
"Is someone scared of Mr. Puck?" Gilbert laughed.
"Oh how I would love to hear this story," Lovino said.
"Let's just say, I don't know if he can have kids now," Matthew smirked. Gilbert hollered and high fived him while Lovino had a satisfied look on his face. Ludwig just face palmed and Antonio chuckled. Feliciano didn't have a clue about what they were talking about and Francis was getting beat up by Arthur.
"Yeah yeah, so funny, by peeps," Alfred said as he turned away dragging Arthur.
"And he is back to his annoying self," Matthew muttered.
"Well Lovi and I have to go get more tomatoes! Bye!" Antonio said as he dragged a swearing Lovino away.
"The sexy me has to get home, I get to make dinner today! It will be delicioux!" Francis said as a car came up and he opened the door and got in. The ones left, who consisted of Ludwig, Feliciano, Matthew, and Gilbert, climbed into Gilbert's car after Matthew was asked to come in the car.
"Mattie, want to go to my house?" Gilbert asked as he was driving.
"Sure, Alfred will probably be with Arthur so I don't want to be alone," Matthew said. Gilbert hollered as they pulled up to the house. Feliciano and Ludwig went to Ludwig's home to 'study'.
"Want to go outside? My house isn't that awesome, mostly compared to me," Gilbert said Matthew just nodded. They ended up grabbing snacks and sodas and were sitting a tree just talking.
"I haven't had this much fun in a while," Matthew said.
"Really? Well you will be having more fun with the awesome me!" Gilbert said. Matthew smiled.
"I think I will like that," Matthew said.
They stayed like that for a while until it was dark. When Gilbert dropped him off he did something surprising.
"You know you are awesome right birdie?"
I just got sprayed by the hose! Okay so I got kicked off the computer so bad ending! OH and my fish named Lovino had babies XD I wonder if Feliciano got him pregnant.
Fun Fact: There are more than 150 million sheep in Australia, and only some 20 million people.
I think Scotland would like Australia! ;D
