At first Matthew hadn't been sure if he should stay in his own room or not, and wait for his Guardian to come and talk to him separately, but he pushed that thought to the back of his head. Knowing his luck Arthur would simply forget about him, so it was better to go and sit in with his brother, at least that way he wouldn't miss out if Arthur was going to do something good.
The two didn't have to wait long for Arthur to come home. It was given away when the door slammed open and a loud shout of "Boys! Boys! Where in the name ofcurses, where are you two!?"
Alfred looked up tiredly from his video game, hanging his head upside down from his bed, a Playstation controller in his hand. "He's back," he muttered around the gum in his mouth, chewing at it before blowing another bubble.
"Boys!" the voice thundered.
"In my room!" Alfred shouted back, tilting his hands slightly as he continued to press the buttons on the controller.
"Whose room?"
Alfred sighed.
