The Idiotic Adventures of Anna Parker (REMAKE)

three; teatime

Arthur wakes up to the sound of something crashing. He blinks in confusion for a few moments, unsure of what he just heard before another crash comes from the lobby and this time a familiar voice is heard cursing.

He sits up in his bed, glancing over to where Alfred still snores in his before getting up. (On a small note, Arthur was completely against staying with Alfred, but Anna insisted- well, she insisted after Arthur threatened her when she said Francis should be his roommate).

He leaves the room without getting dressed or putting on shoes and creeps down the hallway. In the first couple of days, he did get dressed, but he decided that it didn't matter because no one else did.

He rounds the corner to see Anna putting out breakfast. She's already dressed in her usual shorts and her dark green tank top. Her curly hair, like always, is in a braid.

Arthur's gotten used to the idea that this girl will be the first thing he sees in the morning and he doesn't mind. She's cute enough, and she offers amusement.

She turns and jumps a million miles in the air at the sight of him standing in the doorway. She holds her chest, glaring slightly at him.

"You know," She says quietly, "You could say good morning to me instead of watching me creepily."

"I wasn't watching you," Arthur replies back, stepping into the little eating area. He crosses his arms over his green shirt, "You were the one making the bloody noise."

Anna frowns. It looks slightly off on her face. Arthur has also gotten used to the giant crooked grin she usually has on her face.

"Whatever," The Brit sighs, falling into one of the chairs, "Good morning, Anna."

And just like that, a crooked grin finds her lips. "Good morning, Artie." Then, she grabs a mug and starts to prepare something, "Sorry about the noise. Heracles and Kiku were supposed to be up to help, but it looks like that's not happening."

Arthur nods, unsure why Anna would trust Heracles on anything. Kiku, on the other hand, is pretty trustworthy, so it doesn't make a lot of sense why he's not here.

Suddenly, the mug she was messing with is set in front of her. "You like your tea without any sugar, right?" Despite asking, she sets the sugars and creamer in front of him before going back to working.

Arthur looks at his mug to see the tea he usually fixes himself in the mug and finds himself starting to feel a little flustered. He never realized she paid much attention to anything they did, so her doing this surprised him.

"You've been drinking that type of tea since you got here, Artie." She says with a small grin, "It's not that big of a deal."

She starts to mess with a large metal container for the scrambled eggs. She wasn't even looking at Arthur anymore, but still feels flushed.

Of course he doesn't have feelings for this girl. He's only known her for two weeks now and it's crazy for someone to develop feelings in that amount of time, especially since Anna hardly says anything without a sarcastic remark.

Still, this is nice and usually, people don't do nice things for him. He blows at his tea before taking a small sip.

Finally, for what seems like twenty minutes, Arthur speaks again, "I can help," At her surprised look, he continues, "If, if you need it, of course."
