Plagued

(Sorry about the super late reply. My home life hasn't been good lately, but I should be able to post normally for a while.)


Jackie had all but thrown herself out of the way when she spotted the incoming boy, but grinned at the happy reunion. It was nice to see them be so happy to see each other. She looked up to Rob with the same grin, then tucking wild strands of curly hair behind her pierced ears. On closer inspection, she had five studs on each; two in the cartilage of her ears, and three crammed onto the lobe. She walked around the two boys, and leaned against the wall near Rob.


She elbowed him lightly. "At least they're happy to be together, right? Not by the best means, but this whole mess brought us all together, yeah? That's a bonus, if you're real optimistic about it."

(It's no problem. Take as much time as you need )


Chris and Daniel stayed in the hug for quite a long time, to be honest. They were so happy to see each other, and Rob simply nodded at Jackie. "One moment." He said, and then walked into a room that was just down the hallway. He came out of the room (and was holding a young boy in his arms, around the age of six or so) he smiled at the two of them and then walked over to stand with Jackie. He looked at the two boys, which were only just coming out of the hug now, and then smiled up at her again.


"Yeah, I know what you mean. I've been promising them for quite some time now that I'd take them to see their cousins again. They were really looking forward to it, but... Y'know, we never really got around to it, seeing as it's quite a distance to travel." He said. The boy rested in his arms with his head on his shoulder was, once again, a lot like his second eldest brother. He had shaggy dark brown hair, but a cute little face. "Now, Jackie... This handsome little guy here is George." He smiled.

Jackie grinned at the little boy, restraining herself from booping his little button nose. "Hiya, George. I'm Jackie." Jackie waved, then looked over to Rob. "I asked earlier, but I don't know if you heard with the boy running down the hallway and all. Do you need any help with shi- things around the house? I'd be happy to help wherever I can."

"Hi, Jackie." George squeaked shyly, and then instantly turned to bury his face in his father's shoulder. Rob chuckled a little and then rubbed the young boy's back, and then looked at Jackie with a grin.


"Don't think too much of him being all like this." He chuckled. "He always gets shy around girls, but don't worry, when he warms up to you, you'll see just how much of a lady-killer this little guy is, alright?" He laughed, and then reached up with his free hand and gave George's hair a little ruffle. Heh, it was funny to look at this little guy, with the happiness, shyness, and overall cuteness that he possessed.


"Any help, eh?" He asked, and then set George down on the ground and crouched in front of him, smiling. "Why don't you go and say hi to your cousins. You remember them? And Uncle Walter?" He asked, George looked at him blankly for a moment, but then nodded shyly and looked down the hallway towards Daniel and Christopher. He looked back up at Rob.


".. Daddy... What should I do?" He asked.


Rob rolled his eyes. "Just walk up and say hi, and then head downstairs to see the others, okay?" He said, and then ruffled his hair. George nodded quaintly and then progressed down the hallway, right up to Daniel and Chris. Soon enough, Daniel was crouched down and hugging him, too. Aw, how sweet.


"You can come out back with me and help get some firewood, if you want. We've taped the curtains to the wall so that not too much light gets out, so we'll be safe to light the fire tonight, seeing as it gets cold at night here. I don't know if you're used to the cold environments, but even if you are, the little ones don't like it when it's cold in the house." He explained.
