Chapter 5: Visitors
Roderich was walking down the hall when he saw someone look similar to him (the only difference was the blonde hair and light blue eyes) walk into Gilbert's room. Confused, the Austrian watched him before shrugging and walking down the hall. He became even more confused when he saw three others enter the room. But, he was an Austrian and he wasn't going to get involved.
Gilbert was also confused when the four entered his room. He tried to sit up, only to reopen some of his wounds. A wave of pain rushed through his body and he let out a whimper. Ludwig laid him back down, comforting him. But Gilbert wouldn't stop staring at Alfred for some odd reason.
Alfred blinked. He didn't know why Gilbert was staring at him with wide red eyes. He couldn't read the other's expression either. So, Alfred decided to stare back. It seemed like forever before Francis cleared his throat, snapping the American out of his daze. "We 'ave business to conduct, you know. No time for staring contests, Alfred." Said American nodded his head and turned to Gilbert's family. "I'm sorry to interrupt your family reunion, but would you please kindly leave? We need some privacy." Vash and Lili were the first to leave, Elizaveta next. Ludwig was the last to leave, and also the most reluctant. "You let me know if they do anything to you, Gilbert."
"Hi, Gilbert. We just have to ask you a few questions, if that's alright." Gilbert nodded. "As you know, I'm Alfred. You already know Francis. The Brit with the big eyebrows is Arthur Kirkland, my "brother." And Matthew is...ummmm...around here somewhere. He's my real brother." Matthew sighed and sweat-dropped. "So, let us begin. What exactly happened that made you end up in Russia?"
This chapter didn't have as much dialogue as I liked, but it was still a pretty fun to write. Especially the cliff-hanger at the end! Hee hee, I am evil~ Anyways, let me know what you think of this story so far! It is by far one of my best. Favs and follows are welcome and appreciated!
