"Eh? Really now…? Well, I missed you too…"

I had awakened to the sound of Dad talking. Not able to remember my dream, I got up and noticed Ivan sleeping in a seemingly uncomfortable position. I quickly and quietly ran up to his room to grab a pillow. A voice could be heard echoing throughout the house.

"Ah…yes, I do think that would be nice," Dad said, only pausing to chuckle. "I believe that the boys will enjoy it too. Hah, okay. Bye."

I quickly ran back to the couch, placing the pillow underneath Ivan's head. A grunt escaped my mouth when I tried to turn him around, feeling as if the poor guy was still uncomfortable. The tall Russian ended up shifting on his own.

"Al, you okay?" Dad asked from the other room upon hearing my grunting noises.

"Yeah. I was just trying to move this dude onto the freaking pillow but he wouldn't go."

"Ah, okay."

I walked into the kitchen and saw Dad writing something on our calendar. He quickly hid it and smiled at me.

"It's a secret~"

I sighed and walked to the counter. I could smell hamburgers cooking and figured that it was Mattie, since Dad sucked at cooking anything.

"Ah, did you have a nice rest lad?" I heard Dad say from behind me. I turned around and saw a sleepy Ivan, who yawned and nodded.

"I don't think we've formally met yet, Ivan. You can call me Arthur," Dad continued, extending his hand. Ivan shook it and looked at me. I stared at him for what seemed like forever before moving back into the living room. My tall classmate followed me and sat on the couch, motioning for me to sit with him. I sat down and awkwardly looked at my hands in my lap.

"So, is there anyone that Alfred likes~?"

"E-Eh? Why do you want to know?" I asked Ivan, not realizing how harsh I sounded. He let out a small sigh.

"No reason~" He replied smiling. I gave him a weird look and was about to ask him something else but as soon as I opened my mouth, a scream came from the backyard.
