Matteos Home For Boys (Poly)

chapter 1

I can't believe this

I can't believe my parents are basically abandoning me

"Arlo stop frowning you will get wrinkles"

Coming out of my self-pitying I look up to my mum and frown even more "Why do you care if I get wrinkles it's not like you will ever see them"

Am I being dramatic and petty?

Yes but I think its acceptable in this situation.

Sighing she moves a piece of her blonde hair behind her ear "Arlo stop acting like a baby. It's not like I'm sending you off forever you will only be there for two years"

I roll my eyes "Yeah because two years isn't long at all"

"Enough" my dad's rough voice rings out "you know exactly why you are going there and I will not hear another word about this again. Will I?"

As I look over to the drivers seat I fix my glasses and say "no sir you won't"

My dad smiles "good because we are finally here"

Apparently "here" is in the middle of nowhere. There's literally nothing but what I will say is a beautiful house.

It looks to be two floors and has vines all over it but the vines make the home more beautiful instead of old.

"Oh that must be matteo standing at the door come on arlo let's go and meet him" My mum is sounding way too cheery to leave me

Stepping out the car I look up and see who must be matteo.

Wow this man is fine. He's wearing a white T-shirt that fits him perfectly with blue baggy jeans. He has tanned skin that is covered in tattoos.

He looks down at me. Yes down at me I'm bloody 6ft and he looked down at me!

"You must be Arlo it's nice to meet you" he says while holding his hand out. Being the gentleman I am I shake his hand and wow they are the perfect combination of soft and rough.

"Now I know this must be intimidating for you but me and the boys will Try and make you feel as at home as possible"

I send him a small smile in thanks

"Arlo your father and i need to leave now or we won't be able to catch our flight" I can see the sadness in her eyes but I ignore it

My dad walks over and pats my shoulder "good luck son. Behave okay? Me and your mother will come and visit soon"

Next thing I know I'm being engulfed in a motherly hug "I'm sorry baby. I love you so much."

"It's okay mum I know. I love you too" I say while trying to give my best convincing smile. I've always been closer to my mum than I have dad. Which is why I'm more upset with my mum because she's hurt me more than dad has.

" I will call you as soon as we get home okay?" I nod in understanding "bye mum" "bye baby"

I watch as they leave in their car and then jump when I feel a  hand on my shoulder "come on arlo let's meet the other boys"

When I walk into the house I realise how big it actually is "looks much smaller on the outside doesn't it?"
I mumble a "yeah" and kept looking around me

Walking closer to what must be the kitchen at the end of the house I get the sweet aroma of cake

"That smells nice kayden. what are you making?"

Now fully in the kitchen I get to see what kayden looks like and damn he's fine as well!

"I'm making a red velvet cake sir" he says before looking up. When he notices me he smiles "hey! you must be arlo, nice to meet you". I smile " Nice to meet you too"

I look up at matteo who has his arm around my shoulder "could you take me to my room so I could put my things away?"

"Oh Of course! sorry I totally forgot. Come this way" matteo steered me up the wooded stairs and while we passed around four bedrooms he told me that "you will be sharing a room with finn don't worry he's lovely and the rooms are very spacious"

Matteo entered the last door at the end of the hallway "Oh matteo i was just going to come and find you. I just finished my book and oh my goodness was it good- oh hello" Finns face flushed red

"Hi finn it's nice to meet you. Could you possibly help me put my things away?"

He smiled "Ofcourse I can"

"Okay I'm going to get dinner started I will call you both when it's done. Try and get comfortable arlo"

"Okay I will" I said with a smile and with that matteo left leaving me and finn alone.
