The phone call was about Arthur's mom, and I got called down to go pick up her soul. Which was a real pain in the butt for me because I had picked up his little brother and his mom.When I get to the hospital she isn't dead yet but I do see that blonde boy there again. I realize that his name is Arthur. He goes over to his mom and his dad is there as well. I stand be hind his mom and she says her last words. "Arthur, even though I haven't seen bạn in a long time I....will always.....love....you." she says with her dying breath. I take her away and I leave them be.
Arthur's father is a very handsome man. He has blonde hair and blue eyes. He is also tall and slim. Arthur's mom died of a virus and even though she was a nurse she could not find the cure to help herself.
"What's going to happen now dad?" asks Arthur tears falling down his face. "Well bạn should come to live with me in Berlin." says Arthur's father. "But I don't want to father, I want to stay here I have Những người bạn here too." says Arthur. Arthur also says that he could live with Lieutenant Collins. His father lets out a sigh and says "Alright bạn can." says Arthur's father. "Thank bạn so much father." Arthur says hugging his father.
On Arthur's way trang chủ he remembered all of the good things about his mother. A tear of happiness ran down his cheek. He looks up into the sky and says "I'll miss bạn mother, really." Arthur is heading trang chủ when a couple of thugs come and put him in a dark alley way. "What the heck?!" shouts Arthur trying to defend himself. Two of they boys put Arthur up against the alley tường and then comes out a taller boy with brown short hair and says "Well aren't bạn a cutie?" he says getting close to Arthur. "Shut up and let me go!" says Arthur struggling to get free. The boy doesn't say anything he just gets closer and holds Arthur's chin. Arthur thinks that he is gonna Kiss him but he was wrong. They boy comes in and punches him in the stomach. Arthur falls to the ground and then he starts to feel like he can't breath. "Help!" he shouts but comes out as a whisper. "No one can hear bạn cutie." scoff the boy. While Arthur is on the ground the boy gets on hàng đầu, đầu trang of him. Arthur winces at the pain of the other boy on hàng đầu, đầu trang of him. "What do bạn want?!" says Arthur. "Well it seems to me that I want u to be mine." he whispers into Arthur's ear. The boy snaps his fingers and Arthur is out like a light.
"Arthur, Arthur sweetie wake up." says a familiar voice. "Mom?" says Arthur still a little bit groggy. He wakes up thêm and he realizes that she isn't his mom, but she is Lacy. Then he jolts up and hugs her. "I miss her so much Lacy." Arthur sobs on her shoulder. Lacy pats his back and soothes him, then there is a knock on the door. "Is he ok hun?" asks Lieutenant Collins. "Ya he just gained consciousness." says Lacy with a smile on her face. "Oh Arthur I have a friend for you." says Collins. Arthur's face lights up when he sees Francis walk in and Collins and Lacy leave the boys alone. Francis comes in and hugs Arthur tightly. "Arthur I got came over here the first thing I knew. Are bạn ok?" asks Francis. "Kinda I am feeling woozy and a little in pain." says Arthur holding his stomach. "Here let me take a look at bạn ok." says Francis taking off Arthur's shirt. "Hey don't try anything!" says Arthur turning red. Francis just smiles. "Wow Arthur bạn got beat bad." says Francis in shock looking at the marks and bruises on him. "Don't it hurts." says Arthur in a low voice. "Don't worry I'll make it feel better Artie." says Francis getting on the giường and kissing his wounds. This makes Arthur get even redder. Francis sweetly kisses Arthur's lips when they here a knock on the door.
Francis gets off of the giường and Arthur says "Come in!" In walks Lacy. "L-Lacy!" says Arthur in a shocked voice covering up his chest. "Now, now don't do that bạn will get blood all over the blankets." she says coming over to rub some cream on Arthur's bruises and scratches. She rubs it on his chest, face and stomach. "H-hey Lacy can I have some water?" asks Arthur. "Sure bạn can." she says walking out. Arthur leans against the tường and Francis sits tiếp theo to him holding his hand. They look at each other and Francis says "Arthur even though bạn are hurt, your eyes are still shining." says Francis putting his hand on Arthur's cheek. Arthur blushes and they both lean in for a Kiss when Arthur leans thêm and kisses Francis deeply. Francis puts his tongue in Arthur's mouth and soon Francis is on hàng đầu, đầu trang of Arthur and they are still kissing when the door opens.
They both freeze and look at Lacy who is smiling. Francis gets off of Arthur and Arthur sits. Lacy brings over the water. "T-thanks." Arthur says in a low voice kinda embarrassed. "Its fine Arthur I'm ok with it." says Lacy leaving the two boys alone. "Wow she is very pretty. Don't ya think Arthur?" says Francis. "Ya but she is with Lieutenant Collins." says Arthur. "And how old are they? asks Francis. "Um well lets see 19 I'm pretty sure." says Arthur. "Oh ok." says Francis. They sit in silence for a little while until Arthur leans over a kisses Francis on the lips and Francis pulls Arthur down with him. Arthur kisses Francis's neck and Francis touches Arthur's chest. Arthur doesn't care that it hurts, all he cares about is him being with Francis.
The war is coming to an end soon. Instead of walking the battle grounds, I decide to take a walk through Dachau (concentration camp in WW2). I see all of these bodies. Some are still alive and some are dead. They are all skinny and pale. They are working so hard some of 'em die from working so hard. I can't stay here much longer here, the smell is getting to me.

A năm has passed since his mom died and Arthur was felt like hi didn't wanna do anything today. So he stayed trang chủ from school and lazed around.

It's getting colder outside and I'm up in the clouds watching the living, when Alfred's soul pops up right tiếp theo to me. "Can I see him one thêm time please?" asks Alfred in his little voice. I just look at him and think. I shake my head yes and I tell him what to do and what not to do when seeing the living.
"Hey Collins I'm heading out!" shouts Arthur from the door way. "Ok be back soon!" yells Lt. Collins from his office. Arthur grabs his áo, áo khoác and heads out the door. "Ugh why does it have to be so bloody cold outside." mumbles Arthur to himself. As he is walking along a path in the woods he sees something moving in the distance. "Arthur come get me." says a giggling voice. Arthur hears the voice and he follows it. Until he comes to a cây and it brings a memory of him and Alfred sitting bởi that cây and reading. "Arthur, Arthur." says the giggling voice. "Alright Francis it's not funny!" shouts Arthur thinking it's a game. "I'm here Arthur." says Alfred's ghost. Arthur jumps and looks forward.
"its really him!" whispers Arthur in a shocked voice. Arthur comes running toward the ghost but falls in the snow. Arthur sits up and looks at the figure "Alfred?" he says.
