Dense Was An Understatement, He Was Underwater

“Look at that idiot. He’s like her guard dog or something…his radius of stupidity keeps people at least a full 5 feet away from her.” An Englishmen in his late teens sighed grouchily to his over jubilant friend while sipping his tea.

 

“I know I know! I just wanna go over there and give them a little poussoir mi ami!” Francis sighed longingly before laying his head against his desk in awe.

 

“Oi, quit being weird and help me finish organizing these papers for the upcoming school mingle.” Arthur demanded rather childishly before sliding a large pile of papers to his romanticized friend.

 

“Gah…in the name of love, I bless those two!” Francis called, determination blazing through his baby blue eyes.

--------------------

 

“Are you sure you’ve got no problems in your classes (f/n)? No one bothering you?” I grumbled a ‘yes’ at my upperclassmen Alfred Jones. I’d originally been his ‘shadow’ when I had first entered my new school but as time wore on he become my shadow. He was sweet and somewhat childish but I learned to love him, he was kind of like a big brother figure but over time it dipped into something more intimate… in my heart at least. He was such a dense idiot.

 

Seriously.

 

“(F/n)! We’re here. Have a good day lil’ dudette!” He smiled charmingly causing much of my freshmen class to perish at how ‘cool’ he was. I blushed red before walking into the room.

 

“Al’ I’m only two years younger then you.” He just smiled and patted my head in response.

 

“More of a reason to treat you like a kiddo!” I glared bullets into his turned chest, I think he felt it by the way his back suddenly shivered oddly.

 

“I-I’ll see you at lunch (f/n).” He cried before taking off with much haste.

 

“Dense idiot.” I whispered before sitting down and taking role call.

 

“(f/n)?”  I sighed and rose my hand.

 

“Here.” This was going to be a boring day! But today was going to be different, I was going to get Alfred to see me as a women and not a little sister!

 

-----------------------

 

“….huh….I feel like I should ask for more help….” I sighed out loud before walking over to the large cafeteria doors with much caution.

 

“Ugh~” I pushed the metallic doors open and walked over to the table me and Alfred shared. For whatever reason everyone else refused to sit with us, so it was very awkward the first few weeks with us sitting at a table fit for 7 people.

 

“(n/n)! There you are~ I went and got all the hamburgers from the McDonalds booth over there!” I turned to where he was pointing to see a very happy mcworker counting his money and packing up early.

 

“What the hell Alfred? How-bff!” I coughed a little as Alfred stuffed a full mcdouble in my mouth before shoveling down a few of his own.

 

“More eating, less talking!” He cheered with a mouth full of beef (hehe) and slurping a flurry. I pulled the large burger from my teeth before pulling him by the arm to our table, I don’t care how hard this’ll be I’m going to get him to-

 

“-So is that a yes or a no sweet cheeks?” I sent a fire beam to the girl Alfred was currently flirting with. I think she may have caught a whiff of my anger because soon after she pointed over to me and walked off in a hurry.

 

I can’t believe him!

“Dudette? What’s wrong?” I shuck away the tears that were whelping up in my eyes and looked up to meet his zesty blue ones.

 

“It’s nothing…nothing at all.” I whispered before gnawing on one of the many mcburgers slowly.

 

“(f/n)? You can’t fool a big brother when their sister’s in pain, tell me, what’s up?” He patted my back lovingly. False love. That was it, that was the last straw.

 

I rose my hand up before slapping him with all my might not caring how confused he was or how hard I hit him or even how silent the room had gotten. He’d dashed all of my tries to get his attention and crashed any and all of my dreams with his simple brotherly remarks. That was more painful then actually getting dumped! He’d never even given me the chance to get dumped… He didn’t know how to treat a girl, no–a women.

 

“(f-f/n)?” I glared at him before taking off and busting out of the silent cafeteria. I earned pitiful looks as the students moved out of my way; they’d known how hard I’d tried to get Alfred’s attention.  I ran until I couldn’t feel my legs anymore into one of the empty classrooms before collapsing under a back classroom desk to cry my eyes out.

 

“That ass…that stupid American asshole….I don’t ever wanna see his stupid face again!” I cried out in agony, eyes full of utter pain. Alfred didn’t know how much he hurt me with his dense attitude and simple statements…

 

“(F/n)? I know you’re in here! Whatever I did I’m sorry!” I heard Alfred’s yells from the open doorway. I just ignored him and curled up more into a ball, hopping to vanish from the human eye.

 

“(F/n)..?” His loud stomps throughout the classroom vibrated harshly against my ears until they suddenly stopped.

 

“Hey.. let’s talk about this, what happened?” He asked calmly before sitting down behind me.

 

“I tried so hard.” I whispered out, no more tears could be produced from my red eyes.

 

“What?” He questioned, I growled loudly before flipping over quickly causing him to back away into a desk.

 

“I tried. So. Damn. Hard.” He was beginning to piss me off again…He better understand this.

 

“(F/n)? What did you try so hard on? Tell big br-.” I cut him off.

 

“JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP! WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU, YOU DENSE IDIOT! GOD! I FUCKING LOVE YOU? DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT MUCH?? I. FUCKING. LOVE. YOU!” I cried out letting all of my pent up emotions free as I shouted at him in a fury of blinded emotion.

 

“W-what?” His eyes looked slightly dulled as he looked down.

 

“I never knew….(f/n)…I’m sorry.” I clenched and unclenched my balled up hands before looking him in the eyes.

 

(E/c) against electric blue.

 

“Now that it’s off my chest you can go ahead and laugh at me-mph..!!” I suddenly felt my lips become engulfed by another’s soft ones.

 

Alfred?

 

Was Alfred kissing …..me…?

 

It was short and sweet…just like him…short, and sweet.

 

Without having a chance to even react he took me in his arms and hugged me, not like a brother….but like a lover.

 

“I’m so sorry (f/n). I never knew that you even felt that way about me, honest.” I blushed deeply at how the day’s events’ turned out.

 

“…I….I forgive you…just, just don’t ever do something like that again, ask first you dense idiot..” I commented harshly before delving my face into his neck.

 

He smelt like hamburgers…..I like hamburgers.

 

“I’m glad, little sis-girlfriend.” I tensed up slightly before nodding into him.

 

“I like that nickname, call me that instead.” He chuckled.

 

“Sure thing dudette, sure thing.”
