Hey dear readers! (or comrades whichever one suits your fancy)

I'm not dead :D Just got caught up again with life and Deviant art and more planning fanfics stuff (Like a certain secret project/s... you heard nothing from me! D:)

Random Person: Yay! The FLUFF POWER worked again! :D

Mystery Fan: I was planning on finish writing the whole thing and just publish it as a whole massive story but I didn't want you (and the other dear readers) to wait TOO long so I'm separating it into two (three?) parts.

Green Eyes: Thanks! (hugs you) I'm glad I did a good job for your request!

And now, this-*Dramatic music* ... Don't make me pull the plug on you.

Good. As I was saying, this AdoptedReaderXLowselfesteemAllies goes to MysteryFan!

Enjoy!

Oi!

You remembered it like it was yesterday.

…

'When is he coming?' you asked, placing the plate away on the table. Your mother always had the most interesting set of dishes for all occasions, just like how your grandma has different coloured jumpers knitted for you.

'Soon, dear.' Your mother replied, dropping freshly sliced vegetables into the pot.

'Honey, have you done your homework yet?'

'I'll do it now mum!' you called running upstairs and into your study room.

Barley looking around at your beloved 'study' room, you bounced up into your seat. Well, it wasn't really a study room, more like a library.

You smiled to yourself before launching into your easy homework, you couldn't say the same for you other subjects at school but (s/n) was sure one of your most favorite!

Stopping for a minute you wonder at why your classmate and best friend, Claire loved the colour yellow.

Maybe she'll love that doll I had tucked away in my toy box? You definitely knew that you weren't going to miss it and giving it to a new home and owner who would give more love to it than you had would be much better!

Your mother continued to cook as the doorbell rang, you gasped in excitement, dropping your pen in the progress. He's here!

You ran down the stairs as your father came in, 'Daddy!' you yell happily clinging onto him. He grinned as he tiredly placed down his suitcase.

'Hey there, sweetheart, I'm glad to see you too,' you felt him hug you tightly before letting you go, 'Now where is Mum?'

Taking up his suitcase, you beamed. 'She's in the kitchen!'

He beamed back, 'Thank you, I'll be in the kitchen too then.'

You ran up the stairs, placing the heavy thing by the bed, sure you were interested in what he brought back from his trip but listening to his stories were even better at the moment.

Walking out of your parents' bedroom you stopped by the stairs.

'I don't know…'

'But they would have nowhere else to go if we don't take them in,'

'What about _?'

'Well, she did say she'll love to be a sister,'

Your ears perked. A sister?

'Who's they?'

You slowly approached the door.

The air seem heavier than usual, your parents looked at you.

He looked at your mother before kneeling down to your level, 'How would you feel if I were to say you are going to be a sister?'

You titled your head and smiled, 'That would be great!'

Your mother smiled slightly before gesturing for you to sit down. 'I do hope you understand that you will need to be more responsible…' she look towards your father before continuing, 'your brothers will have low self-esteem so you'll have to be the mature one alright?'

You nodded your head and smiled. 'You can count on me!'

…

Your alarm rang.

Yawning, you rubbed your eyes. Hitting the alarm off, you trudged to the bathroom before your brother Francis did, otherwise you'll spend the next half an hour or so banging on the door to hurry him up.

I swear he can be such a girl sometimes, you thought brushing your teeth. Everyone else should still be asleep, minus the early birds such as you, Francis, Yao and Ivan.

You entered the kitchen as Yao finished making breakfast from his favorite wok. You still weren't use to the fact that he was cooking unattended by an adult.

'Morning!' They all said.

Ivan smiled at you before turning back to his cereal while Francis munched on his French toast. Grabbing your favorite cereal box, you proceed to pour it into your bowl.

'Could you pass the milk?' you asked Francis. He was going to say something when another voice interrupted him.

'And the magic word is?' Arthur interrupted. You looked at him as he strode over to the pantry.

'Please?' you answered, resisting the urge to roll your eyes at Arthur. Francis grinned before passing the milk while Arthur sat by the table with a plate of bread and jam.

'I would have passed it over either way since you are so adorable,' Arthur choked on his bread.

'You can't flirt with your own sister!'

'But I was not flirting!'

'Yes, you were!'

'Was not!'

You face-palmed. Your brothers can be so silly at times.

'Can we finish breakfast in peace?!' Yao complained, Ivan nodded in agreement before sniffing the sunflower in his hands.

Where did he get that sunflower from? You questioned yourself, he couldn't have gone out to the backyard and back again that fast… could he?

Alfred announced his presence by fist pumping the air. Matthew sat beside you as his brother tried to stop the argument.

'No more fighting for the hero is here!' You got out of your seat and prepared cereal for the two late sleepers.

'Thank you,' Matthew quietly said as you placed a bowl in front of him.

Arthur rolled his eyes, Francis crossed his arms in silent protest. Alfred looked over to you and pouted.

'You heard the hero, no fighting, especially for today,' you said, taking all of your and the other boys' dirty dishes away, on top of the dishwasher.

Alfred happily smiled before tucking into his late breakfast. Matthew was already almost finished, whilst Yao and Ivan disappeared from the table.

Arthur mumbled something under his breath before being wacked across the shoulder, 'What was that for frog!'

Francis flipped his hair back, 'I heard what you said! You-' He stopped at your stare. You turned to look at Arthur, who was snickering.

'You too, let's not start off the day bad,' looking at the time you turned to your younger brothers, Matthew and Alfred.

'We only have a few more minutes till Mum will come around to pick us up from her work,' Matthew nodded whilst Alfred asked, 'When's dad coming back?'

You smiled, 'Soon, he'll be back before Christmas,'

The kitchen grew quieter as Arthur and Francis left, taking their new argument with them. Alfred hopped off the chair, leaving his plate on the table.

'Thanks for breakfast!' he yelled before running out of the door. Matthew's sigh caught your attention, 'I don't want to go to school,'

'Hmm? Why's that?' you asked taking his bowl away and placing the rest of the dirty dishes into the dishwasher.

Matthew shrugged but said nothing. You frown.

The van horned outside as all of the boys rushed to the front.

'Don't trip over Yao, Ivan! Quit pushing each other!' you yelled before running upstairs. Grabbing Matthew's and your bag, you ran back downstairs.

Matthew waited by the door as you passed his bag to him. 'Let's go before they leave us!' Matthew nodded, letting you go out first before closing the door behind.

'Took you long enough,' your Mother said as you closed the car door.

You smiled, 'The dishes don't clean itself,'

She chuckled before starting the engine, adjusting her front rear-view mirror, she spoke to the reflections of the rowdy boys.

'Behave will you, boys?'

A chorus of 'yes' drifted to the front, you giggled. Wish they were like that even when mum wasn't around, you thought as the van moved away from the side road.

Your smiled dropped slightly, why didn't Matthew want to go to school? He wasn't like that when he started school a month ago…

Looking at the side rear-view mirror outside the car, Matthew's reflection gleamed at you.

Did something happen during then?

(s/n)= subject name

Claire is actually one of my characters from another story (which is not a fan-fiction) so if your name is Claire than AWESOME! (also if you like, you may replace the name with another individual who loves the colour yellow!)

I'm not too sure when the next part would be up, but I'll estimate around either this week or next week.

Also the title of this one-shot, I'm not too sure if Dysfunctional family is a good name for it :P

Was tempted to name it on something on the lines of chibi but I dunno... anyone's thoughts and suggestion on the title are more than welcome :D

And so are any other comments and reviews!

Till then, have fun dear readers! and a herotastic day/night!

Cheers!

CommandoCherry over and out!
