I'm doing the college now so daily chapters are back yippie!
"Guys! Let's break out the ouija board!" Antonio shouted excitedly.
Matthew nodded and set it down on the living room floor. The other boys and Bella gathered around it, placing their hands over the little peg that came with it.
Francis watched closely, wondering what was going to happen.
"Whose asking the first question?" Ivan asked.
"Are there any ghosts in this house?" Antonio wondered, eyes closed and voice haunting.
Their hands didn't move.
They waited with no results.
"I'm here." Francis whispered. The ouija board didn't work, apparently.
"I....M....H....E....R....E." The peg started to move, spelling out exactly what Francis had said. Bella jumped back, squealing while Ivan smiled coldly and Matthew stared on in shock.
"What is your name?" He asked slowly.
"Francis. You know me..." Francis said.
The peg moved once again to his words.
Matthew let out a small squeak.
"Francis?!" Gilbert choked.
"Looks like somebody's in trouble for not saying anything about his new boyfriend." Antonio teased, poking Mattie in the side.
"I'm not mad at eizher of you." Francis said. The only people who still had their hands on the board were Ivan, Gilbert, and Lovino. Their hands moved once again to send Francis's message.
"N-no..." Matthew stood up. "One of you guys is playing with it..."
"Mattie," Gilbert let go of the pointer and took a hold of Matthew's hand.
"Zhis isn't a joke, Matthieu. Please listen to me." Francis reached out toward his brother as Lovino and Ivan spelled out his words. But Matthew wasn't reading along. He had tears in his eyes and was shaking so hard Francis was sure he was going to fall.
"Guys, put zhat avay." Gilbert stood as well, pulling Matthew into his arms. The blond pushed him away as Ivan and Lovino lifted their hands from the board.
"Matthieu! Wait!" Francis called out, the ouija board remaining still. Matthew whimpered and ran out of the room. The sound of his footsteps running up the stairs was followed by a door slamming.
"Mattie!" Gilbert screamed, starting after him until Antonio grabbed his arm.
"Just leave him alone for a while..."
"Da. Loosing a sibling is hard." Ivan agreed.
Gilbert tried to object but nothing came out of his mouth. He sat down on the couch instead, closing his eyes and sighing loudly.
"So...what do we do now?" Lovino wondered.
"I dunno...maybe we should cheer him up?" Antonio suggested.
"Let's make him some waffles!" Bella jumped in.
"I'm sure we can bring him lots of snacks." Ivan agreed. "And we can bring him back to the living room and all watch a movie together."
"Sí." Lovino nodded.
While the others decided what to do, Francis made his way upstairs to Matthew's room, finding his little brother on the floor, shaking. He looked absolutely rattled, eyes flicking back and forth. Somebody knocked on the door and he jumped, screaming.
"Whoa, Mattie. What's goin' on?" Alfred opened the door, stepping in slowly. Matthew grabbed onto the other boy's pant leg, pulling him down.
"What's wrong?" Alfred asked.
"I miss them." Matthew whimpered, bursting into tears.
"I do too." Alfred held Matthew until he finally calmed down. By that point, Gilbert was at the door, looking down at them with a hurt expression.
"Hey, everybody's down stairs vaiting for Jou." He held out his hand and Matthew took it, allowing himself to be pulled into his boyfriend's arms.
"I'm sorry for freaking out." He stammered. "I'll come down now."
"Great...cuz I need to get back to Kiku before he finds my porn collection."
"Get outa here ya damn furry." Matthew rolled his eyes and leaned deeper into Gilbert's warmth. Alfred snickered and ran back to his friend.
"So, shall ve head out?"
"Not yet." Matthew nudged the door closed with his foot, pushing Gilbert onto the bed.
"V-vhat are Jou doing?!" Gilbert stuttered, eyes wide as Matthew kissed him roughly.
"You said you wanted party sex."
"I zhink Luddy und Feli snuck away und beat us to it." Gilbert whispered.
"Oh yeah?"
"Ja. Jour basement is pretty insulated."
"Yikes. I hope they clean up."
"Oh trust me. Zhey vill."
"Gilly?"
"Ja?"
"I changed my mind. I want to wait."
"For sex?"
"Yeah..."
"Zhat's alright. Jou can take as long as Jou need."
"Thank you. Now let's get back to the party."
"Ja. Come on."
