"Yes, Gerard, pleasure to meet you. And you must be Arthur." He said, stepping in. Kat trialed irritably, not wanting to be there at all. She scowled at the floor and sighed, not looking at Arthur.

Arthur nodded faintly, tossing a death glare at Kat before turning.
"Can I get you anything? Water, coffee, tea..?" He said politely, calming his nerves as h picked up his own tea cup and taking a sip.
"Alfred went out to the store for a bit, he'll be back soon."

"Got any whiskey? Vodka maybe...?" Kat spoke up, keeping her eyes on the floor.
"No alcohol, Kat. I told you." Gerard scolded.
"Well I need to get a buzz on if I'm going to see him! Do you want me to break down?!" She shrieked.
"That's the initial plan." Gerard murmured.

Arthur scoffed, folding his arms over his chest.
"Besides I wouldn't waste good brandy on you." He growled.

Kat met his glare with an even more intense one. "Funny. how I make more money in a day, then you do in a year." She sneered haughtily

"Least I have a life. It's sad to think you still can't get over someone who neve fully even loved you..yet you still come home alone every night. Or have you taken up your hooker job again, ****?" Arthur snarled back, tense with hate.

"I don't need love, I'm more successful then anyone." She growled, Gerard chimed in.
"Okay guys, let's save it until Alfred gets here." He muttered.

"Not anyone Kat. You're one of the poorer celebrities." Arthur scoffed, rolling his emerald eyes. Alfred came in with a few bags and stopped, sensing the awkward atmosphere. He looked to Arthur as if asking, "sorry?" And the brit grumbled something before walking over and taking the bags.
"Not sorry enough you Basta*d.." He growled, setting the bags down on the counter as Alfred kissed his cheek before turning to face Kat and Gerard.
"Um..Hey Kat.."

"Hi..." Kat squeaked. Wincing slightly after Alfred kissed Arthur's cheek.
"Alfred! A pleasure to finally meet you!" Gerard siad, shaking Alfred's hand firmly.

Arthur smirked, seeing Kat's reaction he had half a mind to just pin Alfred to the counter and go all out but no- he had his dignity and he'd never live that down..!
"Yeah, hey." Alfred answered, his half smile half frown still stuck on his face.

"Tell her, Alfred, talk to her." Gerard said, leaving the room. Kat stood there, defenseless.

Arthur raised an eyebrow and sighed, walking by and following Gerard out of the room reluctantly.
"What've you gotten into now Kat?"

"I..." She didn't like Alfred's serious voice. She didn't like the disappointment in his voice. All she'd ever wanted was for him to be proud of her, she just kept screwing up. "I just...drink...that's all...and party...but it's not like I haven't done that in the past..." She said meekly.

Alfred groaned an leaned back against the counter with a grunt of disapproval.
"You let it all go to your head didn't you? Jesus Kat..why couldn't you have been something' simple!" He huffed, but he knew Kat was good at Acting, hed seen her movies.
"You have to stop. Or you'll end up on the streets again like all those other celebreties!"

Kat's jaw clenched, but she shook her head no, "S-since when...shou-should any-anyone care ab-about what I do..It's m-my life." She tried to sound strong, but her defenses were crumbling.
