Chapter 12: The Families

Two months have passed and Christmas is nearing. The snow has covered all the streets and homes. My sister never came back but I know she's doing just fine. Today is December 22nd and we all awaited the arrival of Gilbert's family. Gilbert paced around my bedroom anxiously. I sigh from my bed. I sat criss-cross on my bed, typing an essay for my acting class on my computer. I wore a black turtle neck sweater and black slacks with my old prescription glasses back on my face.

"Calm down Gilbert. Everything will be just fine."

"Nein! It's bad enough that my family is coming but now my father's best friend's family?! This is all gonna go to hell."

"How bad could it be?" I looked at Gilbert and he looked me straight in the face.

"It's hell." I sighed and I heard a door bell ring through out the house. Gilbert froze and tensed up. "They're here." I dramatically gasped.

"oh no~!" I shut my lap top and stood up, running my hand through my hair. Gilbert wines as he panics slightly. Sierra's voice booms through the house.

"They're here!" I sigh at her loud voice and I hear Antonio and Francis curse in their native tongues as they rush done my hallway. I look at the fidgeting Gilbert.

"Let's go." Gilbert shakes his head. "Come on! Just put up with them for a couple of days." I give him my puppy dog eyes and he wavers but nods. He follows me downstairs were voices are heard.

Servants rush to their positions in front of the large marble stairs. They get into position in their uniforms. Francis and Antonio wait at the foot of the stairs with Sierra, Shiera and Alistair. our head butler waits for Sierra's word. She wears a long flowy white dress with a lace turtle neck and sleeves. She nods to him and he opens the large doors. Two families with different characteristics stood there. Gilbert bowed and said hello to his family first. A tall man with long blonde hair, almost white, with cold blue eyes stood with the up most posture. Another blonde with blue eyes stood next to the tall man, a bit shorter than him but taller than Gilbert.  Beside them stood a somewhat cheery family. A tall man with tanned skin and curly brown hair with golden eyes stood, just as tall as the first blonde. Next to him stood two teenagers, about as tall as Gilbert. One wore a smile and the other wore a frown. They both had brown hair but the smiling on had a lighter shade and the other had a darker shade. The same was with their brown eyes. The smiling one had a strange curl on the left side of his head and the other had a on to the right. They looks similar to each other but I could tell they were different. Gilbert speaks up and stands next to the blondes.

"I am Folkert Beilschmidt. Pleasure to make your acquaintance."  The tall blonde from before bows his head. "I am Gilbert's father." Sierra smiles at him and bows her head a bit.

"It's a pleasure Mr. Beilshmidt." The other blonde bows his head next.

"I am Ludwig Beilschmidt, Gilbert's younger brother." Sierra bows her head to him next then looks to the tall brunette.

"Ciao! My name is Arsenius Vargas! These two here boys are my sons. Say hello~." The smiling ones bounces as he talks, along with his curl.

"Ciao~ I am Feliciano Vargas!" Sierra smiles down at him and bows her head and looks to the other boy.

"I'm Lovino Vargas." Sierra gives him a smile, making his scowl more and she looks back to the fathers.

"Welcome Beilshmidt and Vargas family. I am Sierra Adams. I am head of the house." she looks to me and smiles, placing a delicate hand on my shoulder. "This is (F/Name) (l/name). His parents are the owners of the house. I am also sure you know Francis and Antonio." The two bow their heads and smile at the family. I noticed Lovino blush as Antonio gave him a warm smile.  Sierra gestures at Shiera. "This is Shiera, he is my son." Shiera bowed his head.

"Thank you for letting us stay here Mrs. Adams." said Mr. Vargas

"It is no problem at all Mr. Vargas. The servants will show you to your rooms later, please come eat breakfast with us."  Sierra turns, her dress dancing around her long legs and starts to walk with two maids by her side along with Alistair. the trio and I follow along with the two families and some servants. we arrive into the dining room shortly after.

The dining one that is Victorian style. the chairs are made from real oak and has an oval back side with roses in different colors stitched in the white cloth. the table cloth is white silk with a fancy chandler hanging above on the ceiling. The white curtains cover the windows that expose the outside. An East-Indian rug lays under the table and the walls are white with old paintings hanging on them. The far back wall has an old brick chimney, that was currently lit, with white, floral sofas in front of it. Servants stood close to the walls, waiting to be ordered.

Alistair pulled out the chair at the head of the table and Sierra sat in it. I sat next to her on her right side and Shiera sat on her left side. Next to Shiera, Francis sat along with Romano, Feliciano and Mr. Vargas. On my side, Gilbert sat next to me followed by Antonio, Ludwig and Mr. Beilschmidt.

"I hope you like the food I prepared." stated Sierra as she held a glass which was filled instantly with wine. My glass was filled with cider along with the others besides Mr. Vargas and Mr. Beilschmidt, who received wine. Other servants came out with silver covered trays. one was set down at each of our spots on the table and lids were taken off to reveal some turkey, seasoned potatoes and asparagus. "Please enjoy~." Sierra began to eat her food  and so did the others. Mr. Vargas spoke up after a couple of minutes of silence.

"So, Mrs. Adams. How have the boys been treating you?" Sierra looks up from her food and smiles at him, taking a sip of her wine.

"They have been lovely Mr. Vargas. They are truly nice boys." She smiles at Antonio and Francis and Gilbert. "They are a true blessing."

"How so?" asked Mr. Beilschmidt. He looked at Gilbert and Sierra blinks before smiling.

"I've always wanted children Mr. Beilschmidt. I sadly lost my first child due to certain circumstances. Then I met (M/name)'s mother and she blessed me with looking after her children. I raised (m/name) and his sister. However, his sister left for military school and (m/name) never really talked to me." I  stared at my lap, ashamed as she took a sip of her wine. " Then one day (m/name) brought home three young, handsome men. They talked to me as if I were their mother and (m/name) opened up to me more. They are all a blessing and I'm happy to have them here."

"I'm sorry for bringing it up." states Mr. Vargas, showing sympathy toward Sierra. Sierra shakes her head.

"It is fine Mr. Vargas." she looked to me and I looked up at her. "Have you gotten your homework done?"

"Yes Ma'am." She smiles at me before turning towards Shiera.

"How has Matthew been doing?"

"He's doing well." Sierra nods and looks at Gilbert.

"Did you study for your exam?" Gilbert nods and she looks at Antonio. "Did you finish your English paper?" Antonio nods and smiles at her, earning a glare from Romano. She smiles at Francis.

"How is your job going Francis."

"Good." Sierra nods.

"You'll need to start saving up your money soon." Francis nods.

"They seem to be treating you kind and respect you Mrs. Adams." said Mr. Beilschmidt. "That is very good." his voice is heavily accented with a German one, similar to Gilbert's. Sierra nods. The three of them discuss about different topics as we eat. After an hour we all finish with eating and talking and the grandfather clock goes off. Sierra stands and the other follow.

"I suppose we adults need to discuss some things, the rest of you can go to the family room while we talk in my office." she smiles at us and leaves with Alistair by her side and Mr. Vargas and Mr. Beilschmidt following suit. As the door closes behind them I hear Gilbert inhale like he had been holding his breath the entire time.  I sigh and so do the others. I turn and look at the others.

"The family room is this way." I turn on my heel and Gilbert walks by my side as we walk to the next room. The room has a large entertainment station and a wall filled with books. Three black couches sit in front of the large flat screen implanted in the wall. I sit in one of them and Gilbert sits next to me, Shiera on the other side of me. Francis, Antonio and Ludwig take up the next one and the Vargas brothers occupy the other one. There are a few moments of silence before Francis speaks up.

"Its been a while hasn't it, Ludwig? Feli? Romano?" Ludwig nods.

 "Its none of your business, bastard." growled Romano as he glared at the French man. His brother grips onto his sleeve.

"Be nice fratello! You promised!" Romano glared at Feliciano.

"Why the hell did we have to come here?! Its none of Grandpa's business that these idiots are staying with that woman!"

"Fratello! Grandpa has his reasons! I'm sure he was just worried about them!" Romano scoffs and Antonio smiles at Feliciano.

" That would be a happy thought Feliciano." Feli nods and smiles at Antonio. Ludwig turns toward Gilbert.

"Bruder. How is it living here?"

"Gut. Mrs. Adams treats us all nicely and supports us." I scoff and relax on the couch.

"She yells at you because you don't clear the table when its your turn." I felt Gilbert scowl at me and I shrugged. "I can't lie." I heard Francis and Antonio snicker, trying too hold in their laughter as they relax.

" We all like living here." states Francis. "Everyday is pleasant and nothing is ever boring."

"Yeah to you maybe.." Gilbert mumbles under his breath. I elbow him in the gut and he curses at me in German as I ignore him like I did nothing. Ludwig frowns.

"Bruder, language." Gilbert sighs as he also relaxes.

"This is a pain. why did vater need to butt in? I was perfectly fine on my own." Gilbert sighs again.

"Vatti heard about the fire and he worried bruder." Stated Ludwig coolly.

"I thought he said that he disowned me after that day. I took those words to heart..." Gilbert sighs and leans his head onto my shoulder and traces the barely seen lines on my pants. "I hope these next days go by fast..." Ludwig, Feli and Romano stare at Gilbert's closeness to me but I ignore it with a sigh.

"I hope so too." I whisper to myself, closing my eyes.
