I'm sorry...~America

The girl

~Alfred's POV~
It's been about a week since my intervention with Matt and Tino...since then Matt and I have moved back into our old house from the 1950's and have started fixing it up as a distraction from all the drama from the last few years. Since the intervention I've actually gotten a lot better and though I still have some dark thoughts here and there Matt's always there to help me push them away. Today we're working on getting the front yard decorated so Mattie's at the store shopping for bushes and flowers and shit and I'm supposed to be putting together some furniture from ikea for our office but it's hot as hell inside since we don't have an air conditioner yet so I'm currently taking a water break on the porch. It's still hot outside but there's a breeze so when you compare my two options being outside is much better then roasting inside. The house is located across the street from an elementary school and every day around this time the kids are released for recess and every now and then I'll have to get a kick ball out of the street for them. I don't mind it though I like kids, they always remind me of how I was when I was little, only I got to stay little for a lot longer then they do. Right as I finished my glass of water a little red kick ball bounced over the white picket fence and rolled itself right into the road, just as it always does. A few boys and girls stop at the fence and stare into the street before looking over at me with "innocent" smiles. I smile back and go over to the street to retrieve their ball but just as I reach for it my hand collapses onto the hand of a woman. I pause for a moment before looking up to meet the eyes of an...oddly familiar woman with long brown hair, dark green eyes, and skin that was naturally tan, almost like Carmel candy. I quickly moved my hand away from her's and chuckled "sorry I didn't see you there" the girl smiled at me and picked up the ball, "your fine, I didn't see you either, thank you for getting the ball...the children always end up kicking it over the fence" she must be a teacher.
"It's alright I don't mind, your a teacher right?"
"Yes, I actually just moved here a few days ago" she glanced behind me at my house. "By the looks of it you did too" I looked back at the house and pushed my glasses up. "Oh uh..kinda, my brother and I used to live here so we bought it and moved in together"
"Aw that's so sweet" 
"Hey Miss Garcia! Can we have our ball now!?" One of the boys wined whilst the others cooed and made kissy faces towards us. We both blushed a little before she looked back at me, "I should go, it was nice to meet you..." "oh uh Jones- Alfred- heh sorry just call me Alfred" she chuckled and tucked the ball under one arm "Garcia, Cristina" Christina smiled and went back over the fence returning the ball to the children. I stood there for a while stuck in the moment before being shocked back into reality by the honk of Matt's car horn. "What are you doing in the middle of the road!?" I blinked and realized what it looked like I was doing and rushed over to Matt's car. "Al-" "I'm fine Mattie I swear this wasn't a suicide attempt I was just giving the elementary school kids their ball back" Matt gave me a look of disbelief, "I believe you weren't trying to kill yourself but why would you just stand in the middle of the road" I rubbed the back of my head "I was just spaced out I guess..." Matt sighed and got out of the car, "come on help me get these plants out."

That night while Matt and I were making dinner when our oven stopped working so we decided to just go out for dinner. The town we're in is pretty small so there's only so many places we could go for dinner so we decided on a cute little diner next to an old court house. Inside there were only about five people, a big fat hillbilly looking guy, a mother with her two children and- Christina grading papers and drinking some coffee. Matt must have noticed me staring because he elbowed me hard in the arm. "Ow!" Christina looked up and I looked at Matt. "Who's she huh? A friend of yours~?" He teased me and I rolled my eyes and sat down with him at a both covering my face with my hand. "She's a teacher at the elementary school across the street...she and I went to get the kids kick ball at the same time so we stopped and had a little chat that's all" Matt grinned from ear to ear, "you like her don't you" I glared at him and scoffed "how am I supposed to like someone I haven't even known for more then 24 hours" "oh come on I'm just messing with you, seriously though this is good your starting to get more comfortable around people"
I rubbed my forehead
"I wouldn't say I'm comfortable..."
"Still Al...I'm glad you talked to her" he gave me a small smile and i gave him a tiny smile back. Matt and I both looked up as Christina walked over to us and smiled, "hello again Alfred- sorry I saw you come in and thought I'd say hi" I blushed. "Oh uh- hey- um this is my little brother Matthew"
"I'm older actually" Matthew smiled and held his hand out.
"No your not-"
"He's right we're twins...but I was born first"
I rolled my eyes, we were born at the same time.
He just became a country before I did.
Christina chuckled and shook Matt's hand. "I see the resemblance, it's very nice to meet you Matthew"
"You as well, say did you know my brother is single?"
"Matt!"
"Whaaat I'm just starting conversation~"
Christina laughed and blushed hiding behind her turtleneck sweater, "I doubt he will be for long, I'm sorry I really have to get back to work but it was nice to meet you" she waved and went back to her table. I waited until she was out of earshot and then hissed at Matt. "Oh come on I totally did you a solid"
"You totally did not!"
"We'll see about that~"
I groaned and took my glasses off "your so lucky I love you"
Matt smiled "love ya too"
