One fine day Alfred is called to see his acquaintance, Nation A. Apparently Nation A has found something fascinating that Alfred simply must see. Upon his arrival, Alfred is led down to the basement, where he is introduced to Arthur, a very pretty young man with wings, who is currently being kept in a sort of large birdcage.
Alfred's fascination soon gives way to horror when he sees that Arthur, who has the mind of a human, is being kept as a pet and treated poorly. Cue rescue, living together, and development of romance.
Bonuses: -Arthur is furious at his captivity, and voices this quite often. -He is unsure how to act once they escape.

“So, what’s this about?” Alfred asked as Francis let him into his house, looking around for anything that might be a clue as to why he’d been invited over

An elegant metal cage hung near the back of the room, in the middle of the ceiling, suspended by a thick chain. It was a fancy piece of craftsmanship, rather exquisite, but the beauty of it vanished in wake of the creature it contained

After he’d eaten, Alfred asked to see the angel again. Francis had told him that there were things he needed to be doing, but gave the American an indulgent smile and said he could go down alone, if he wished

Alfred didn’t have chance to respond before there was an explosion of movement. The angel shot out of the cage, knocking Alfred to the ground but landing gracefully on its own feet. Arthur stretched out his arms, wings unfurling to reveal their true majesty, but the motion made Arthur wince and his legs buckle, sending him to the floor

Both of them shivered as they came in contact with the still chilling wind, and despite Arthur moving to try and put his bare feet on the ground, Alfred kept carrying him

I love this so far. Arthur manipulating Alfred's emotion and sense of heroism like that was mean but justified in a way. Also Alfred carrying Arthur is too cute.
Can't wait to read more of this! :)
PS: Hope we learn how Francis manage to get Arthur in the first place.
Oh A!A, this fill is just perfect <33 It's exactly what I pictured in my mind for the prompt. I'm grinning so hard, you have no idea!
I love how you described angel!arthur, and I think you kept both Arthur and Alfred wonderfully in character. I'm so excited to see where you take this!! Thank you so much for filling! <3
It hadn’t been too difficult getting up to Alfred’s hotel room. Arthur had flat out refused to just walk straight through the hotel lobby and Alfred couldn’t really argue with the sentiment. In the end they had simply gone up the fire escape to the third floor, Alfred carrying Arthur and resisting the temptation to pause and nuzzle into the downy feathers of Arthur’s wings

After they’d both finished eating- and between them they did manage to get through everything- Alfred sat back onto the bed, flicking through the channels with the TV remote. It was getting late and the amount of good shows on the four available channels was deteriorating.
Arthur got up from his seat and Alfred turned his head to watch him approach, eyes questioning. The angel gave him a look and then climbed onto the bed to sit between Alfred’s legs without explanation.
“Um,” Alfred said intelligently. “What?”
“I can’t see from over there,” Arthur said simply and Alfred didn’t argue. Cautiously, he moved his arms to encircle the angel’s waist, relaxing when the angel didn’t move away or hit him.
“Hey!” he let out an indignant yelp as the channel changed. He hadn’t noticed the remote being taken from his hand.
He could feel the angel’s grin even though he couldn’t see it. The television was now showing a part of a history documentary on some obscure topic.
“You’re joking,” Alfred moaned, “We’re not watching this“We are,
