"(F/N) wake up your friend's banging on the door" Matt huffed. Slowly I lifted my head from the pillow, "Give me a minute Zoe!" I shouted getting up I wondered to the door and clicked it open. "Morning sleepy head" she smiled. "Hi" I yawned. "Let's go talk down stairs there's a big buffet breakfast" she grinned. Nodding I followed her out the door. We took a seat by the window. The only thing I decided to have was some teaas I didn't have much of an appetite. Taking a sip it left a bitter taste in my mouth. "So where have you been?" Zoe qouestioned munching on some toast. "Um..." If this went sour I really didn't want to tell her. "America" I anwsered. "Is it nice there? That's really far from here" she smiled I nodded slightly. Before she could ask another qouestion a bang capture my attention. Looking up a familiar person had their face pressed against the window staring at meintensely, eyebrows drawn. They were knocking and causing a sense. "Come in Twit!" Zoe ordered I heard a tut as they diapered from sight. Hurried footsteps drew closer in till I was plucked from my seat in to a hug. "Where the hell were you!" he sighed pulling me away gripping at my shoulders. "In America apparently" Zoe anwsered bluntly. Was he happy to see me? "Why did you leave! Why didn't you tell me!..." he was angery. "...You worried me to death" his voice calmed slightly. A small smile spread on my lips. "worrying eh?" I qouestioned teasingly. "Like hell" he shouted. "It's only been 2 minutes and you guys are already fighting" Zoe smiled. He puffed up his cheeks as if to say she was wrong. His face suddenly changed to angery again though this time he was staring behind me. Glancing behind me Matt was stood there silently. "Oh... Um m- James this is Arthur" Matt nodded though his face seemed quite stern and his shades didn't help me determine how he felt. "I'm her Brother" Arthur stuck out making his words sound crisp and clear. Matt took it and they shaked. Tense, everything felt so tense. "Hey Arthur go easy on the bloke" Zoe spoke concerned.

Arthur truned on his heel facing me "Can we have a chat outside?" he asked with a bittersweet fake smile. "Sure" I replied worried. He grabbed my wrist and dragged me outside. "Who's that?" he qouestioned harshly as soon as we for out the door "Um James like I just told you" I repeated "No,no, no who is he to you? Is he your boyfriend?" I let out a sigh as protective as ever. "Are you seriously still that protective" I tried.
His big eyebrows knitted together "Of course I'm am, I'm you brother." he paused briefly taking a deep breath "even if we're not related by blood your still my sister" he started to lecture about how no matter what he's my brother. He use to do this alot whenever I tried to push him away.

"Ok ok I get it, he's helped me alot so please just be civil" I rubbed at my temples trying to get rid of the headache I'd gained. "No promises".
"Arthur!".

He shrugged slightly then his face fell from a happy angery to serious. "A lot has happened since you've been gone" he stated. Couriously I wanted to know badly what had by his features I could tell if wasn't positive in the slightest. This was the first time I fully took in his appearance. A suit untucked messy. No piercings or any band tops. His eyes seemed duller then I remember. His hair was in a messy fashion. He'd grown up... He was looking down at me. "I won't bombard you with qouestions but will you anwser this one." he spoke strongly. I owe him atleast this I felt guilty for not being here for him. "Why are you back?" I was suprised, didn't he want me here. "don't take it wrong, it's just why now? What for?" he rephrased.

My mind thumbled for an anwser. Matt original convinced me to come back. "to see my family again" I wish my words sounded more convincinv yet they only became hallow. Arthur raised an eyebrow "ok I'm not sure that was the original reason" I caved. A silence fell over us; all I could hear was the rustling of leaves. "ok" he seemed to except my reply. "Let's get back before Zoe thinks you've gone missing again" he tried to joke yet it was to flat to make me want to laugh.
