They call me Melody
Welcome to Longings West, a group home for troubled teens. Here you will be helped and cared for until you are deemed well enough to be returned to the outside world by yourself. Enjoy your stay!
 
Melody


The cab pulled up to the house and I looked it over before rolling my eyes. I can't believe my step mother kicked me out. What makes it ever worse is my father, let her. I scratched at the bandages covering my wrist then I grabbed my bags and guitar case and walked inside without knocking. "Hello," I call out and a voice from the back of the house responds. "I'll be there in a second, take a seat in the living room please." I walk into the room and sink into one of the odd random chairs scattered throughout it.

Jacob and Miracle talked while walking around the house, as they walked past the living room and sat on the couch across from the new person . They looked at the person "Aye what's you name" Miracle asked as she crossed her legs one over the other. "I'll be up" Jacob said as he stood and went up to the attic wear most people went to hide too smoke weed. Miracle nodded as looked at him, leave.

I looked down and pulled the sleeves of my hoodie down. "Melody," I mumbled softly. "Do you work here?" I looked around the room nervously.


((I realized that after a few minutes! Sorry!))

"Ha you wish I live here" she said putting her hair in a high pony "What's your problem why you here" she asked even though it was the counselors job she leaned forward as she grabbed a notebook and pen from the table a front of her. "I like too help the counselors" she said
 
Melody


I tugged my sleeves down farther. "What makes you think I have a problem?" I replied harshly, "Maybe I'm just here to volunteer for school or something. Where's the woman who runs this place?" I took a deep breath at the end of my rant and looked at my hands.
 
"You pulled down your sleeve and you look at yo hands when you're nervous." she wrote down what she said She looked up at her you have a problem" she said as she stood as she heard one of the counselors coming. "See you around and tell some notes are taking down earlier" she than went on the way Jacob did to get to the attic.
 
Melody


A woman walked in and introduced herself after the other girl left. After explaining the rules to me, they led me to my new room and stripped searched my bags. I saw another bed and wondered who my room mate is going to be.
 
Jude strolls into the room carrying a half eaten honey bun in his hand. He munches on it a bit loudly and scans over the girl who had recently entered. He then follows Miracle, seeing her travel upstairs. He is much too busy eating to say hello.

Karson follows her brother, holding his hand. Once they enter the room however, Karson lets go of him and lets out a high-pitched, excited scream. She loves to see more people in the house, so she quickly introduces herself.


"Hi! I'm Karson! I'm so glad you're here, now!"


She hugs the female as if she is a long lost friend and claps her hands together. The teen then follows her brother, knowing she shouldn't be listening in. She chews on the inside of her cheek, trying to ignore the mild call of hunger from her stomach.

Melody


I jerk back after she hugs me and moves into the corner of the bed looking over the boy and girl sitting on the bed opposite. "Melody," I say quietly. "And you?"


((I just realized I'm typing everything in first person. So I'm going to switch it after this response.))
 
Miracle sat by some girl as looked back seeing Jude "Hey Jude" she said as she got out of the circle and turned to him "So the new girl how long do you think she'll last before she wants to escape" she was handed a joint she took two drags before passing it. Jacob went down stairs to get something to drink he walked passed the new girls room "What is your problem" he asked looking at the two girls as he leaned on the door frame
 
Melody sighed and pulled up her sleeves to reveal her bandaged wrist, "Take a wild guess" She said as she held her arms up before dropping them into her lap. "My step mother made my father kick me out."


 
Jude laughs at her thought as he is passed the joint. He takes a drag, while thinking about the new girl's behavior.


"Hmm... Maybe a week. She'll last until it sets in that she can't hide from us. She's too insecure to stay in control; she'll break."


____________________________________________


Karson realizes where Jude is heading and drops back, returning to Melody. She smiles at Jacob and looks at the girl's arms, wondering how deep the cuts are.


"Oh well; that's not so bad. At least you got parents, dear."


The girl pets Melody's hair without asking.


"Did you dye it this blonde or is it natural?"
 
Melody looked at her shyly. "Natural. My mom made me promise to never dye it because she thought it was beautiful," she said smilingly slightly.

Jacob threw his head back as he walked away, he knew it was about too be girly and he didn't want to stay. he went to the kitchen and grabbed some soda's and went to the game room to play some games. "I say 5 days" she bit her lip like usual when she took the joint and dragging it she was going to keep that joint between them two.
 
Dakota


Dakota walked up to the front door and kicked it open with the bags from the store in his hands. After he put them away in the kitchen he walked up to the game room. "Hey"

Karson smirks at the thought of looking how someone tells her to.


"Well, she was right, but I'm sure you'd be pretty without it, too."


The girl sticks her tongue out at Jacob as he leaves, teasing his tough attitude.


"Not everyone is grouchy here; you can hang out with me if my brother lets you. You just don't want to get on anyone's bad side, okay? You be you, and nobody will give a damn in a few weeks."


___________________________________________


Jude snatches the joint away from Miracle, playfully and keeps it for a while. He grins blowing smoke into rings towards her.


"Kar' is probably talking that chick's ear off; that's the true test of patience."


He stretches his arms, growing bored with this hidden crowd and yearning to check on his sister.


"Hurry up; let's go see if they have ice cream in the kitchen!"
 
Jacob looked at him "Aye" he said he was play smash bros on the wii "What did you go" he asked as he bet the computer which was on the hardest it could be on, he got up and switched to a game cube controller


Miracle blew in his smoke before blowing them back out and handing the joint to some random person as she followed him, she smiled as they reached the kitchen she bought out the two bowls just in case. "Is it there" she asked
 
Melody nods. "May I ask why you're here?" She stood up and began putting her clothes away and organizing it repeatedly.





"We needed more milk and ice cream. You guys ate three cartons of it last night," he replied before grabbing an xbox controller.
 
"Last night was movie night of course we finished it" he said as he bet yet another character. "What you going to play he asked as he put the Tv to where you can see the Xbox grabbed a controller to play with him.
 
Jude slides on his socked feet to the refrigerator and makes a "drum roll" beat with his tongue against the roof of his mouth.


"We have..... COOKIE DOUGH FLAVOR"


He cheers lightly, intimating a crowd of onlookers and scoops some onto his finger childishly. The male pokes Miracle's nose, leaving a dot of ice cream.


___________________________________________


Karson laughs at this question, trying to put her reasoning as simply as Melody did.


"Mom died; dad is out of the picture. And, interesting enough, people really hate to have a girl with a penis dropped on their doorstep, no matter how cute or loving she tries to be. But I suppose the real reason is my brother lashing out when adults treat me like dirt. The reason I get to stay here with him....? Oh, some doctor found out food is my enemy. I don't really care to be fat, so their therapy is not going to work."


The girl giggles and blushes, knowing she spoke way more than she had planned. She is not embarrassed by her story, however, and she shrugs like it's just another bedtime tale.
 
Melody nods to herself. "My mom died. That's why my father remarried to the monster. They're having a baby." she kicked her other suitcase suddenly, sending it flying into the corner of the room. "So of course it's out with the "bratty step daughter" and in with the new "perfect baby"" She said bitterly.
 
Jacob put the controller down "Nothing we got a new chick her problem depression" he said, "So what's new happening." he said "You know anything moving and getting you too" he was meaning his problem


Miracle nodded as stuck out her tongue and putting it on her nose and licking the ice cream on it. "Haha and stop touchin' the ice cream with his finger" she said smacking his hand and putting the ice cream scooper in his hand.
 
"I'm okay right now. They keep switching the dosage of my bipolar medication because apparently that's my problem. Think new girl is gonna freak? Or have they already doped her up as well?"
