Emma frowned a bit. She noticed the girl tense up and felt very bad for her. Emma didn't have emotions like that, but she still felt bad that the other girl did. "So. Do you have any siblings?"

Stephanus took a step back, giving the girl the space she needed to prevent a panic attack. He knew how she felt; he would experience frequent panic attacks around people in his old schools but learned to prevent them. "Are ... are you okay?" he asked the girl from a distance, very concerned - almost extremely worried - that something very bad would happen. He didn't want one of the new students panicking on her first day. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to embarrass you," he added, sounding quite shameful.

Tamika thought about the question. "No, my parents didn't want to have any more children after having me. There where afraid of having another person like me, it's not like they'd be around to raise the child anyway." Tamika aswered. She then froze, 'did I really just say that' She shook her head in embarrassment and smiled it off.

She looked up at Stephanus and breathed a long, shaky breath before forcing a smile on her face, ignoring her rapidly beating heart.





"N-no you're quite alright," she responded, stifling her stutter as best as she could," I'm just n-not very good around new people. And i'm kind of clumsy."





She immediately bit her lip nervously, thinking that she was rambling.





"I-I'm Amelia," she said, starting to sound calmer," sorry, about the vase I mean. I know It was kind of loud."





She laughed nervously and smiled.

It wasn't really a good day from the start, things that happened recently just bore him out. There's nothing really significant happening before he arrived to the academy, sitting in the government agent's car without anything to play inside made his mood worse, moreover the trip from his old town and the academy isn't exactly a small walk to the park, it's a 200 miles journey and he arrived extremely late for the ball. Right after he's dropped off, he's quickly told to attend the ball being held somewhere inside. Holding the map, he quickly navigated his way through the school's grounds and luckily managed to find the place, hearing the various people inside.





"Here we go again"





The sigh, the half closed eyes and the lazy tone are there, after all he expected that right after he arrived he'd be sleeping tightly or something like that, he's not exactly dressed for this kind of event, he just wore a dark blue jacket and a pair of black trousers. Pushing the ballroom's doors, he can see nothing of interest, just people talking, grouping with each other, some are also glaring, spreading intimidation perhaps? and those with smiley faces possibly making friends. The only thing that he considers worth of noting is just the glass shards on the floor and not much else. Tired and not having anything to drink for the last 2 hours he decided to move towards the punch area, quickly emptying his cup as soon as he filled it, indeed he's thirsty, his only focus at the moment is just the drink and the water moving down his throat.

She bit her lip and looked down at the ground, her face still tomato red.





"I'm g-going to go uh... get some punch," she said filling the awkward silence that had ensued. She quickly walked away and to the table covered with assorted snacks and a large bowl of red punch. Grabbing herself a plastic cup, she sipped some of the sickeningly sweet liquid and sighed, finally calmed down again.

Emma started to decipher Tamika's emotions again. She was obviously embarrassed but thought little of it. Emma nodded again and opened her mouth to speak, but then refrained. She thought, understanding Tamika and the actions of her parents. "Well, my current parents were my eighth foster parents. I was thrown back and forth into different homes and these people just couldn't take care of me so I was booted back to the orphanage every time until my current adoptive parents finally adopted me. I have an adoptive brother who's 14 and he's a high-functioning autistic. I guess that's why they accepted me. Because they already knew how to take care of one so-called trouble child. I was their second one."

Stephanus had thought about the right words to say for what felt like only a few moments, but it was obviously much longer. He saw a large assortment of food from sandwiches to fruit and punch. He felt suddenly hungry and walked over, stuffing a plate with fruit and club sandwiches. "Sorry, I didn't get to introduce myself. I'm Stephanus, but you could just call me Stephan." He filled a cup with the reddish punch.

"Nice to meet you," she responded, turning and seeming much more comfortable after the vase incident,"Amelia, you can call me Amy."

"Nice to meet you as well, Amy," he replied with a small smile. Taking a large bite of a sandwich, he thought of other topics. He was thinking about asking her somewhat personal stuff just so he could reveal some interesting things about himself. He gulped down the bite and asked her, "So where are you from?"

"Well, I'm from Illinois, but I just moved to LA to live with my aunt," Amy replied, grabbing a small pastry herself and nibbling at it slightly," how about you?"

"Well, I was born abroad. I'm an only child born in Durban, South Africa, but my parents moved to Orange, California when I was still very young, so I don't remember much, if anything, about where I'm from. I lived in Orange for most of my life, but it wasn't that great." Stephanus squinted angrily, remembering the racism he would face in his schools.

@Smoaki

 

[amxlia]

Amelia Scott

"Oh, well I apologize for any racism you faced. My cousin goes to a school in Orange and she's... Less than friendly towards anyone that isn't, well, European," Amy bit her lip, realizing she might be touching on a sensitive subject by the look he had when he spoke of Orange," not to pry, but you seem a bit pale to be from Africa."

He heavily breathed in and out, getting himself frustrated over the past. However, it was something significant that damaged him as a person and gave him the problems that sent him to Oberlin. He turned away from her slightly, feeling like he would cry. And he definitely didn't want to cry in front of her. "I-It's okay," he said, sounding a bit choked up. He sighed deeply, hoping to change the subject. He cleared his throat and asked her, "So, uh, do you have any siblings or anything?"

@Smoaki

Now it was her turn to go silent. She looked at the ground for a long moment looking as if she were remembering something really sad and traumatic.





"I... I don't have any," she said, too scared she would have a panic attack if she brought up the accident," how... How about you?"

"Um..." Stephanus didn't know what to say. He knew trauma when he heard and saw it and he detected it in her stuttering voice and on her face as she thought. He almost wanted to facepalm himself. It was like almost anything he said had a negative effect on Amelia and he didn't want to do anything that would mentally or emotionally hurt her. "Well, I'm an only child," he replied very simply, not adding any words after. He pursed his lips for a moment.

Sammy couldn't help the smile that crossed his face when Bry called him his friend. No one had said that to him....ever. He listened quietly as Bry talked about his brother. "Well, I hope your brother is happy, although I'm sure he misses you." He said, wondering what it would be like to have such a caring brother. Or really any siblings at all. Suddenly he noticed that the wold was gone, which helped him to relax a little. Still, he was anxiously awaiting the coming of the food.

Nico huffs as he walks down the hall and clutches his books.


He pushes up his oversized glasses and stares at the ground.


He has over 4 books in his hand.


His pants are mid-on his chest, and his sweater vest is a bit wrinkly due to the bullies throwing him against the walls.

She let out a long breath before forcing a smile onto her face.





"Interesting, have you ever wanted siblings?" She asks, her voice still was a bit wavering but sounding a bit more confident.

She pondered, forgetting where she was from for a moment. "Brooklyn, New York. But I didn't live there for very long, only until I was 12 and then my adoptive family moved here. You?"

Stephanus nodded. "Oh, definitely. And for a long time, too. Ever since I was probably about 6 or 7. I wanted another brother, but they never had one and I was one really upset little kid until I learned to live with it." He smiled a bit.
