Scotland X Reader - Family

My boyfriend and I have been dating for well over seven months. But every time I spent the night as his house I never once met his family. Mostly because he’d wake up before me and tell them to go out. I did know he had three brothers and they were younger then him. He once told me his mom left when he was fifteen. So he was taking care of all of them. Allistor was amazing like that.

But today would be different. Allistor was still asleep on my lap. I sat up a while ago to test the waters and he fell to my lap. His red hair cascaded down my legs. It wasn’t long but it was shaggy. He looked cute when he was asleep. Much more relaxed. Allistor was always stressed. Worried that he might not be able to feed and take care of everyone. I’d help him out from time to time but he hated me to do so.

So I left an envelope with money in it for one of the older ones to find. We established a place and would write back and forth. I’m surprised Allistor never found out. But the one I would talk to was named Seamus. He was sixteen and so was his twin, Dylan. And then there was little Arthur. He was only eight. But since Seamus had a part time job he usually said he got a raise and then would help out.

But I often wondered what he, Dylan and Arthur looked like. So I got dressed and snuck away from Allistor. I headed down the staircase. No one was awake. Shame. But since I was here and no one was awake, maybe I should make breakfast. So that’s what I did.

A nice simple breakfast. Eggs, pancakes, sausage and bacon. I set five spots. I set the table. Though their mom left she left some beautiful plates. They were white and had light green trim around the outside that made flowers. I turned and almost dropped the plate though. I saw one of the boys. He was tall and had lost brown hair. He also had green eyes like Allistor.

“Hello,” I said.

“So you’re (Name)?” he asked. “I’m Seamus.”

I gasped. “You’re a lot cuter than how I imagined,” I said. “It’s so nice to meet you.”

“Same here. Allistor usually makes us leave so you can leave without meeting us,” he said. “I see you’ve made breakfast.”

“Yeah. No one was awake so I thought it would be a good idea. I hope it’s alight I used your kitchen. Since you’re the one who cooks all the time,” I said.

“Yeah. I just came out because it was time to start cooking,” he said.

“Oh,” I said. “Well I hope my cooking is up to your standards.”

Soon another sleepy man came in. Looking like Seamus but he had soft auburn hair. He yawned. “Seamus, whatever you cooked smells great,” he said. He looked at me. “Who’s the hot lass?”

“Allistor’s girlfriend, (Name). (Name), this is,” he said.

“Dylan,” I said happily. So then all that was next was Arthur to meet.

“Wait, how do you know my name? I don’t think Ally would talk to you about us,” he said.

“He doesn’t. I do. We write letters to each other,” Seamus said. “I’m going to go wake up Arthur.”

“Alright,” we both said and he left. We both sat down at the table. Dylan just kept looking at me.

“Is there something wrong?” I asked.

“No. It’s just you don’t seem like Ally’s type,” he said. “But at the same time you do.”

“Um, thank you?” I asked. “What is his type?”

“I figured touch girls. Seamus thought a girly girl. So what are you?” he asked. (Based on how this is going, go with it)

“I’m the type of girl you can be a girly girl but can be tough when I need to be,” I said.

“Arthur’s on his way,” Seamus said coming in and sitting down. “He’s not giving you a hard time is he?”

“No, not at all,” I said. They both looked at me and were scared. “What’s wrong? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”

I felt a hand on my shoulder. “Lass, what do ye think ye are doing?” Allistor’s voice asked.

“Talking to your brothers,” I said. He sat down next to me. “What’s wrong with that?”

“Lass,” he said in an annoyed sigh.

“Don’t you ‘Lass’ me. I’ve wanted to meet your family for months now,” I said. “So I took the opportunity of you being asleep to do so. So why not eat?” I smiled. Allistor stared at me.

“Fine,” he said. Seamus and Dylan looked at each other and then at Allistor. “What?” he asked.

“Since when do you listen to a girl?” Dylan asked.

“Because me lass knows how to get to me. So why fight her?” he asked.

It was quiet for a moment but then a small voice interrupted it. “Who is she?” it asked. I looked and it was a small little boy. He had blonde hair. Different from the others, which was red and brown. But he had green eyes like his brothers. Arthur was a cute little boy.

“This is (Name),” Allistor said kind of coldly like he should have known.

“It’s nice to meet you, Arthur,” I said. “I’ve heard a lot about you. So I have a proposal. If you eat breakfast, I’ll take you to the park. I heard fairy’s love it there.”

His eyes widened. “Okay,” he said. He came over and sat on the other side of me.

“Looks like you have competition,” Dylan said.

The rest of the day I spent with the boys while Allistor went to work. I got to learn more about them and we had fun. Arthur had grown attached to me already at the park. We played for a good hour and then we went home for lunch.

Since I made Breakfast Seamus said he’d make lunch. He made some sandwiches. Which we all ate. They were really good. I had no idea that he would be such a great cook.

After Lunch Arthur and I went in the backyard. He showed me all the different spots his fairy friends stayed. He asked if I could see them. I said I could once but since I got older I couldn’t but I still believed in them. He got so happy about that.

But at the end of the day we watched a movie and fell asleep.

(Allistor’s POV)

When I finally got home, I found (Name) and Arthur asleep on the couch. She was holding him like how mum used to. She looked so perfect with him.

“Ahh, you’re finally home,” Dylan said. “You missed it Arthur is going to steal (Name) from you. He’s been with her all day.”

“He has?” I asked.

“Yeah. I think you lucked out finding (Name). She’s perfect,” he said.

“Aye, that she is. Ye should finish ye homework and get to bed,” I said.

He smiled. “Alright. But don’t go back to hiding her from us,” he said and then left. I was never hiding her from them. I just didn’t want them to reject her. I loved (Name) and it would be a problem if they didn’t mesh well together.

I went over to (Name) and Arthur. I put (Name)’s head on my chest. This was kind of like having a family. (Name) as me wife and Arthur as me son. Let’s face it Arthur was already like me own son. But with her here it seemed complete. I kissed the top of her head.

She moved a little and then looked up at me with those big (eye color) eyes of hers. “Oh, you’re home?” she asked. “Sorry, I lost track of time. We had a lot of fun today.”

“I heard,” I said. “Dylan told me. I love ye.”

“I love you, too, Allistor,” she said. I then bend down to kiss her. She was so tired she just let me do whatever I wanted so I didn’t kiss her long. Maybe (Name) and I could save Arthur yet. I lucked out with Seamus and Dylan being able to raise themselves but Arthur did need a mother figure. And (Name) was perfect for it.

Soon she fell asleep back on me and I soon followed.
