Archibald Whittaker
Markus sat slightly arched on one of the beige patio chairs at the Santos' residence waiting for Mr.Whittaker to arrive , he was becoming frustrated sitting outside waiting for him.
In the nick of time when Markus had decided to go back inside their new home and lock up Archibald arrived in a black 2006 Chevy Cobalt. He looked to be in a frenzy the way he was pulling at the car handles taking out stuff and slamming them until his three black suitcases and a gym bag was what he had holding in his frail arms.
Markusfound this amusing , watching Mr.Whittaker struggle to carry his poor excuse for luggage.
Archibald feeling watched looked up at the patio and nearly fell over his own feet. Mr.Andrews was wearing nothing but jogging pants and his hair messily pushed back showing off his defined facial structure and sculpted body. Archibaldalways knew he was attracted to men he was just never outgoing about it.
With much effort to get inside properly , Archibaldstruggled while mumbling incoherently to himself cursing his poor body size.
Markushad had enough of waiting on Mr.Whittakerand took it upon himself to order Chinese take-out. The wind became chilly forcing Markusto go upstairs for a shirt when he reached the bottom of the staircase there stood Mr.Whittaker.
" Took you long enough " Markus remarked.
" You could've helped you know? " Archibaldreplied breathlessly.
" Why? And miss that ? No way "
Archibaldrolled his eyes at Mr.Andrewschild like behaviour.
" I'm Archibald by the way " Markusmade a face at Archibald.
" What kind of name is that ? " He tried to hold in his chuckles to no avail.
" That was my grandfather's name "
" Okay. I'm Markus and I will definitely not call you by that name so I'll call you Greybecause of your eyes "
Archibald's face burned a sickening red making him hate his skin tone even more.
Markus was walking to the living room but before he exited he stopped and looked at Grey,
" Your room is up the stairs , down the hall , the first left on the right —"
He turned again to continue his walk , he stopped again and continued his sentence ;
" And uh the Social Worker is coming by tomorrow morning at 9am to discuss details and we meet Milo. And.. You might wanna deal with that " Markus finished winking at Grey'slower area.
Grey's face burned a deeper red all the while cursing his hormones.
FML.
