Arthur scratched the cat between his ears and smiled. "The day went as usual. No one spoke to me, but when lunch came around, someone did! His name is Alfred and he's new and a bit obnoxious. But that's better than nothing, I guess. I got my lunch stolen again and I don't know if I have enough money to get us something. I'll probably have to get a job." Arthur rambled on to his cat, who purred and listened intently. "Thanks for listening Crumpet. You're the only one who does." Arthur stopped petting his cat and pulled out his homework and a pencil. He hated Trigonometry with a passion, but his teachers had threatened to call his parents if he didn't do it. Ha, he'd love to see them try and call his parents. Humming to himself, Arthur completed a few problems. Then a sudden thought occurred to him. What if Alfre wanted to come over? Arthur would just have to prevent that from happening.
He finished his Trig homework quicker than he expected, so he decided to check how mic money he had. He walked to his stash and dumped all the coins and few bills he had on the floor. When he had counted it all up, it was only around five dollars. That wasn't much, but better than no money.
He slid into his coat and turned "I'll be back, Crumpet. I'm going to get us dinner and look for a job. Take care of the tent for me!" He waved and walked out, zipping up his tent, located in a remote forest. Arthur's first stop was McDonalds. He grabbed an application and was quickly on his way. He stopped at every major food chain, before starting on convenient stores.
When he entered the convenient store he usually shopped at, he was surprised to see Alfred there, scanning the candy aisle, his hands carrying two bags of chips. 'Damn' Arthur ran into the nearest aisle, which happened to be an aisle chock full of pretzels and mini cakes. He waited until he was sure the American had walked out, and then he ran to the front counter and grabbed an application. "I guess I'll buy dinner now, then." Arthur peered around, spotting cups of instant soup, already made. He grabbed two cups, which came to two dollars. Deciding his meal was satisfactory, he grabbed cans of cat food. Each can was twenty cents, so he used the remaining money to purchase fifteen cans. "Crumpet will be happy." he murmured, exiting the store. Arthur let a small smile creep upon his face. He was proud of himself. But he really did need money, and it was tough not having a lunch to eat. But he'd make do with what he had. He wasn't paying attention and collided with someone, Arthur's soups flying out of his hands to the ground, the contents spilling out. Some of the soup hitting the person he ran into. "Oh no, I'm really sorry!" Arthur scrambled to pick up his soiled meal. "Haha, it's okay!" He heard the familiar American voice "Alfred? Oh god, I wasn't paying attention. Let me clean it off for you." "Nah, don't worry about it. Oh, but your soup spilled. Here, I'll take you to my favourite restaurant to make up for it." "Huh? But it was my fa- ahh!" Alfred had grabbed Arthur's hand and was pulling him off.
Arthur found himself sitting across from Alfred, in a McDonald's. Alfred had ordered a huge stack of burgers and Arthur, feeling guilty that Alfred was paying, had ordered a fish 'o' filet and a coke. "I'm really sorry. " "Dude, it's cool!" Arthur couldn't shake the disgusted look the person at the front counter had, when Arthur ordered his food. It stung.
When Arthur had finished his meal, Alfred was nowhere near done. "Alright. Thank you so much for the meal. I'll be going now. " Arthur gathered his bag of cat food and applications. "No, dude, I'll walk you home." "NO!" Arthur practically shouted. Alfred raised a questioning brow. "I mean..no thanks, that won't be necessary. Goodnight!" "Night Artie!" Arthur then walked out. Alfred watchd him walk down the street and turn into the woods. "Hmm..that's weird. He lives in the woods? I didn't know houses were built there..."
Arthur returned to his desolate home to find his cat sitting right in front of the opening. "Sorry to keep you waiting, my dear Crumpet. I bumped into Alfred and spilled my dinner, and he insisted on taking me to McDonalds to make up for it I got some applications and food for you." Arthur fished around in his bag and opened a can of cat food, setting it down. He watched as Crumpet practically inhaled the food. "You eat like Alfred." he pulled out the applications and filled them out.
After finishing those, Arthur checked his clock to see that it was close to midnight. "Come, Crumpet. It's bedtime. Arthur changed from his school uniform to a pair of pyjamas. His only pair. Then he zipped up the tent and curled up into his small bed. It was a foldable mat thing that had came with the tent, and a blanket and pillow. Crumpet jumped up and fell asleep nestled by Arthur. And Arthur had a dreamless sleep.
Alfred had to admit, he was suspicious. How Arthur didn't have a lunch at school that day, and how he refused to have Alfred walk him home. And how he lived in the woods. And he felt pity for the Misfit, but he genuinely liked Arthur. He couldn't imagine being isolated and ignored his whole life. "You okay?" Alfred's brother Matthew asked. "Yeah dude. Just thinkin'" "You thinking? Well, there's a first for everything." "Ha Ha, you're so funny Mattie."
"Dinner!" their mum's voice echoed. Even though Alfred had just ate with Arthur not too long ago, he was still hungry.
"So boys, how was your first day at your new school?" Their mother asked. "Great!" Alfred piped up "I made some new friends! Francis and Arthur!" "That's great sweetie. What about you Matthew?" "I made friends with Francis and Gilbert." "Sounds like you two will be fine at school."
He checked his gun, careful not to accidentally fire it at his brother. "You done yet, fratello?" "Oy, shut up Feli. I'm almost ready. Do you have Arthur's location secured?" "Yep!~" Feliciano grinned. The two Italian brothers were in a cult. An we're assigned to capture Arthur. The whole cult, and Lovino and Feliciano were no exceptions, knew that Arthur had great hidden power. "Let's go then, bastard."

I love this story so much that I updated again. Two chapters in one day! Don't expect that to happen again. I try to update once a week. Now Feli and Lovi's roles have been revealed. And they both have brown hair and amber eyes still. Enjoy and review, my pretties :3
Excuse spelling mistakes, as I type on my phone.
