it!" Arthur hissed he had attempted to remove the burnt muffins from the oven without ovenmitts, which frankly was a noob mistake that he shouldn't have made. After all he's been baking since he could controll his hands properly. Sighing he managed to get the blackened muffins out of the oven successfully without burning his fingers anymore than they were already,but that was because he had the mitts on now.

Arthur stared sadly at the muffins "the potential you had" he said in a melancholy tone, "Arthur I need help out here!" He squeaked in surprise remembering that he still had a job to complete. "Coming Mom!"he shouted, Arthur worked in a Aesthetically pleasing bakery that his mother owned and he would often bake the things they sold and if not he would be the waiter but he only did this after classes. He quickly discarded the burnt muffins and went to go help out. His mouth dropped at the sight of so many people busy chattering away at their tables. "Hurry up, can't you see its a busy evening?" His mother scolded to which he apologized and quickly grabbed a hand full of menus.

It took a while but he managed to hand all of them out and he gave his mother the orders he received. It was going to be a tiresome evening.

Evan was pissed for starters half of his students didn't even turn in their assignments, and to make it even worse some idiot co-worker spilt coffee all over his expensive shirt. "I'm so sorry Mr. Jones I was just trying to offer you some coffee i-i-" he silenced her by holding up his hand "you should focus on trying to get your students to pass that little test you'll be giving and stop trying to woo me with your little gifts. Don't look so surprised I know what you ladies talk about at lunch and trust me none of you will be seeing my bedroom" her face turned an unattractive red...er not that it was attractive before anyway. She turned around and frog marched out the door. He was glad the day was over because how annoying it would be to have a brown stain on your white shirt for the whole School to see.

"HE IS SO DREAMY LYNN!" Arthur said as he flopped onto his bed. "Who?" Lynn said not even looking up from her phone. "Wait! Let me guess...Hugh Jackman?" Arthur rolled his eyes "you and your obsession. Anyway no I was talking about our History Teacher " she snorted "Mr.Stick up his ass?" Arthur pouted sure the man was known for his sour mood and Coffee addiction but their was no lying about how handsome and mysterious he was, atleast Arthur thought of him as mysterious his sister and bestfriend thought of him as just plain rude.

"But you can't deny the fact that he's intriguing" his sister snorted again "what is it with you and your attraction to that old sourpuss?" Arthur threw a pillow at her head to which she tried to dodge but it was too late it already landed square on her face. "Hugh Jackman is old" Arthur argued Lynn gasped dramatically "how dare you! Like I can't even believe you would say that! Hugh Jackman is way different from that porcupine" Arthur rolled his eyes "porcupines are cute though" he stuck his tounge out at her childishly. "Their also a pain in the ass" it was obvious none of the two were going to back down from their opinion so the two switched the topic, and decided to talk about a show the recently started to watch together.

"Lynn! Arthur !" Their mother yelled from downstairs it was obvious that it was dinner time so the two ran down the stairs pushing each other to get there first. "Why must you to always come stomping into the dining room like animals?" Arthur sat down at the table before muttering an apology he was too hungry to argue about why he insisted on racing Lynn every time.

"Is dad coming home for dinner?" Arthur asked as his mother handed him a plate of steaming hot mashed potatoes with gravy, a side of steamed veggies along with baked chicken his mouth was watering. "I don't think he'll be joining us tonight" his mother said in a matter of fact tone. "Its not like he ever does anyway.." Lynne mumbled causing their mother to plop the plate of food down harshly in front of her. "Dont you dare Lynn" their mother said in a warning tone Lynn rolled her eyes. Arthur knew what was gonna happen so he just stayed quite and ate his food shrinking into his chair ever so slightly. "Mom you can't possibly think that dad is on those business trips doing work alone? He's obviously fucking some bitch. we've heard from people that he's doing it why are you the only one whose blind to this Arthur knows! don't you Art!?" Lynn said widening her eyes waiting for his input he fiddled with his fork not even meeting her gaze. "How dare you speak to me like this damn it Lynn I'm trying to keep it together for you too but damn!" Their mother said tears pricking her eyes, Lynn stood up from her chair "NO. You're not doing it for us you just don't want the perfect image you've built for this family to go cracking! News flash everyone knows Everet Wang is a cheating shit house and his wife is too busy trying to be perfect to give a shit" with that Lynne left the dining room. Arthur and Mrs. Wang stared at where she was just sitting. Lynn then appeared again " and I'm taking this with me too because this stuff tastes good" and she left for good now.

"Artie you understand why I do this right? You can't possibly believe those things the neighbours are saying right?" Arthur stood "I think I have some homework to be done I don't want my grades to drop after all bieng perfect is what matters right mother?" Arthur said the tone in his voice was a mix of mockery and seriousness.

"So you scared her away?" Raleigh said laughing as Evan told him about how he got a coffee stain on one of his favourite shirts today. "So they do know that your gay right?" Raleigh said smirking Evan sighed taking a sip of his Coffee "I don't see why I need to tell my business to most of the female staff" Raleigh snickered "You brute,you're only giving them hope and plus a lot of headaches on your part" Evan sipped on his beverage thoughtfully maybe if he let on that he wasn't into the opposite sex maybe they would let up? "I don't feel comfortable telling them my business so how would I go about that?" Raleigh stayed quiet for a while thinking.

"I've got it!"He said snapping his fingers.
