"Hey Alfred." Matthew said. Alfred looked up from his video games to his brother. "Sup Matthew." He said turning his attention back to the screen, Matthew walked over to his brother and smiled sheepishly. "C-could you pause that for a minute?" He asked. Alfred paused his first person shooter. He turned and looked at his shy brother. "What is it?" Matthew sat down next to him nervously. "Well…" He trailed off embarrassed. Alfred poked his brother in the chest. "Out with it dude." He said with a grin.
Matthew sighed and looked straight at Alfred. "Francis wants you, Arthur, himself, and me to go on a double date." He said in a one word rush with a flushed face. Alfred stared at him and smiled. "That'd be ok with me. Just got to ask Artie." Matthew loosened up a little. "Oh alright….so we were planning to go to this one restaurant tomorrow at 6:00." Alfred continued his goofy grinning. He turned his game back on and started shooting earning blood covering screen. :Sounds good. Hopefully I'll see ya tomorrow." Alfred said. He didn't want to spend time with his brother's perverted boyfriend, but he hoped Matthew would be able to keep him on his best behavior.
...
Arthur heard his phone ring and he put his novel down and picked up the ringing phone from the nightstand. "Hello." He said. He heard a familiar American laugh on the other end. "Yo!" Alfred was laughing to himself how Arthur answered the phone with such an obvious British accent. "How did you get my number?" Arthur asked because he never gave Alfred his number yet. "Got it from Matthew." Arthur still didn't understand. "How did your brother get it then?" Alfred wondered if he really should tell the Brit. He took a moment and said. "Francis." Arthur cringed uneasy. 'How the hell did the bloody frog get my number?' He started asking himself then on second thought he really didn't want to know.
"Anyways…why did you call me?" Alfred smiled and slouched on his couch. "Well Mattie wanted to know if you would go on a date with all four of us." Arthur sighed. "And by four you mean Francis is involved?" He asked though he already knew the answer. "Yeah. That's not a problem right? I mean he's your friend correct?" Arthur stifled a laugh from the statement of Francis s being considered a friend. "No, its alright and also Francis isn't what I would call a friend. He's more like a stalker who won't leave me alone." Arthur and Alfred laughed together. "SO all three of us will get you around 6:00." Alfred said. Arthur smiled and said. "Alright see you tomorrow." Click! He ended the call.
...
Arthur sat on his porch. He stared at the road waiting to see Alfred and the others. He shivered slightly at the cold night breeze. He was very sensitive to the cold weather. He zipped up his jacket more and exhaled seeing his breath I the air. A light filled the road and Alfred's park in front of his house. Arthur smiled to himself and walked down to the car. A door opened in the backseat.
A certain French male smiled and gestured for him to come and sit. "I don't think so." Arthur said irritated. Alfred looked at him form the driver's seat. "Sorry Artie, but Matt and I are up here and besides its only for a short drive." Matthew looked At him and gave a comforting smile hoping his boyfriend wouldn't ruin this. "Fine." Arthur mumbled and got in the car. He strapped himself in and shut the door.
They began driving to the restaurant. Francis smiled and leaned over to Arthur so he could whispered. "Hey Arthur, I wanted to apologize for the other day at the library." Arthur rolled his eyes. "Thanks." He murmured not really meaning it. Francis smirked at him. "Besides why have a ménage a trios…" Arthur turned and glared at him. "I mean why not have a four way?" He widened his smug smirk. Arthur's face turned a nice shade of red. "HELL NO!" He yelled at him.
Matthew stared back at the sudden voice. "What's wrong?" He asked since he didn't hear Francis's comments. Arthur looked towards the Canadian. "Your sick boyfriend here!" Francis laughed his creepy chuckle. Matthew sighed and the car stopped reaching their destination. "We're here so lets go." Alfred said already annoyed with the Frenchmen 'Francis just had to do something already.' He thought to himself.
They all walked into the building. Matthew and Francis were holding hands while Alfred and Arthur just stood next to each other. Arthur stared at his brothers hand holding his boyfriends and felt a pang of jealousy. He wanted to hold Arthur's hand like that. They could intertwine fingers and it's be really romantic. Sadly, he was afraid the Brit would reject the loving action. I mean he wasn't even sure what him and Arthur were. He was sure they were dating, but he didn't know if they were a real couple. Shouldn't they be calling each other boyfriend?
It was too bad Alfred couldn't see Arthur's thoughts because he wanted to grip his hand and give it a light affectionate squeeze, but he didn't like public displays of affection much. A wide smiling waitress came over and led them to their table. She handed them their menus and walked off so they could decide what they want to eat. Matthew and Francis sat on one side of the booth and Alfred and Arthur sat on the opposite.
Matthew scanned the menu thinking to himself. 'I hope Francis tones down his erm self or we'll have trouble.' Matthew knew it was unlikely but a boy could dream. He decided to break the silence and ice. "So how is everyone doing in school?" He said looking at his brother. Alfred smiled and continued he small talk. "As bad as usual. Though I am expecting to get a better grade in math thanks to Arthur here." He put his arm around his shoulder causing the smaller male to blush. Arthur felt a little uncomfortable with Alfred's arm around him, but didn't shake it off. "Oh really? How is he helping?" Francis asked joining the conversation.
"Just a little tutoring." Arthur mumbled. Matthew nodded. "But your an awesome tutor!" Alfred beamed. Francis flipped his hair slightly. "Hmm do you have any rewards?" He asked eyes glued to the American boy. Alfred had a lost expression across his face. "rewards?" Arthur looked at Francis with glaring eyes. Francis grinned. "Ahh, I mean when Matthew need help with something and he gets a question right there are rewards such as a cuddle, kiss, grope, b-" Matthew put his hand over his boyfriend's mouth. "Stop." He said hasty with a flushed face. Arthur and Alfred stared at the two in front of them. "Did he actually almost say that?" Alfred whispered to Arthur. Matthew removed his hand and went back to silently reading embarrassed. "I think so and if he does one more thing I have to leave." He whispers irritated almost to the peak.
An awkward fills the air and Alfred can't stand it. He wanted this thing to work and Francis pretty much stopped all chances of that. He looked at Arthur who had a pained expression. Francis kept messing with his feet and over and over Arthur kicked him. Alfred was done with this. He stood p grabbing Arthur's hand and pulling him up. Arthur was surprised by the pull. "I'm sorry Matt, but I cant handle your boyfriend anymore so we're leaving." Matthew nodded somewhat sad, but could understand. "Alright."
Alfred walked out dragging Arthur with him. They got outside and it was snowing. "Great." Alfred said sarcastically. The cold bitter weather made Arthur shudder. Alfred sighed as they walked to his car. They both sat in the back for more room. "We can't leave my bro here so we have to wait." Arthur was still extremely cold not used to this weather, "o-ok." Alfred stared at the Brit and smiled. He wrapped his arms around him and pulled his close. "You're fricken freezing Artie." Arthur blushed. "Wh-what are you doing twit?" Alfred grinned and tightened his hold on the English gentlemen. "Warming you. You need all the heat you can get." Arthur turned a brighter color of red. He did like having the American's arms holding him so secure, though he'd never admit it. He nodded and leaned on Alfred's shoulder. He looked up at him gazing into his clear light blue eyes. Alfred took this chance to lean forward and plant a sweet kiss on his lips.
He the pulled away and smiled softly. "Now you get warm alright?" Arthur leaned on his shoulder more and murmured. "Sure."
Alfred soon had found himself with a sleeping Brit on himself. He chuckled lightly as he snored lightly. He held him as close as he could as he slept peacefully.
