Realistic or Modern The Beginning of the End

"There you go, honey. Be nice to Jared. You know what it feels like to be in a new place with new people." He smiled at him and then gave a smile and a soft wink up at Jared.


Lewis nodded, looked up at Jared, and then calmly walked out of the kitchen in hope that Jared would follow.


"I'm sorry... He's not usually this quiet with people. Don't take it to heart... Just follow him and give him a minute to warm up to you." She smiled at him while she stood up and started to fetch some food from the fridge to cook up. (@Stew)

Jared turns to Alyssa for only a couple of seconds,

"It's ok, I usually don't expect people to talk to me all that much." He says before turning and walking out of the room, following Lewis. He sticks close to the child for Jared is one who is careful when in a new person's house for he doesn't want to bump something and accidentally set it out of place and then the owner would have to fix it and set it back,

"So, Lewis, what are we going to do first on this tour?" Jared asks as he follows the boy.

He remained in a pristine silence for a few moments and then gulped a little as he lead him into the living room. "I'm... I'm gonna show you all the rooms." He looked back at him and gave the softest and happy smile he could manage. He wasn't good with men now, not after that guy they traveled with - he never told his mother, but the man hit him a few times and was generally just nasty to him. He wasn't under the impression that Jared was like that, but he was still saw it as a possibility. ".. This--.. This is the living room, and... the couches are comfy, and the TV and Xbox works... Me... Umm... Me and mommy sometimes watch DVDs or play games together." He said, twiddling his thumbs for a moment in an awkward silence. "Do you wanna see upstairs, too?" He asked sheepishly.

Jared could tell that Lewis was kind of uncomfortable with him, he made a mental note to wait for Lewis to warm up to him instead of being so straight forward. But Jared shrugs at Lewis' question,

"Only if you want to." He says with a sincere smile, Jared wasn't wanting to seem too threatening to Lewis or too suspicious, which was probably going to be hard to do.

(It's fine. You're doing good enough for my expectations so far )


"I can show you... I don't mind." He said, he seemed a little unsure, but then lead him up the stairs and into the first room at the top. It was an old room with a computer on an old oak desk; there were bookcases and filing cabinets, as well as a couple of chairs and a CD player.


"This is an office, I think mommy said... I think this is the kinda place a daddy would work, I suppose." He shrugged a little and looked around slowly. It became obvious by the way he spoke that whoever his father was, worked in some sort of office job. This room was untouched and was still coated with dust, and maybe for good reason, too. The room seemed new to Lewis, too. (@Stew)

Jared follows the boy upstairs and is welcomed by the sight of an old room with a rather drab looking room. Jared could definitely relate it to what Lewis said, for it truly did look like an office room,

"I can see what she means." He says as he takes in the nearly out of place sight, the room looked like it was taken straight out of an office building and slapped into a house,

"This room seems pretty cozy." He involuntarily says, for the room, although drab, did look very cozy.

Lewis didn't say anything. He simply nodded and then slowly closed the door over again. It didn't feel right. He wasn't comfortable with that room one bit - it made him feel the slightest bit upset, seeing as it brought back good memories that ended up being painful ones. Lewis bit his bottom lip for a moment while he thought to himself, and then turned to look down the hallway.


".. Let's go." He said simply, and quietly. He lead Jared down the hallway a little more until they reached the bathroom; he pushed the door open and revealed it - It was a nice bathroom, and he liked this room a lot more. He smiled as he stepped inside and looked around - a nice sink on a counter with a medicine cabinet-mirror above it - the whole room was white, the tub that was in the right corner of the room was large, and there was a power-shower in the corner, too. Beside the tub, maybe a couple of feet from it, there was the toilet and the toilet paper holder; at the bottom of the tub, there was a heated towel rack with several towels on it, one of them being blue, three of them being white, and one of them being purple.


".. This is our bathroom." He said, simply, he looked up at him and gave a half smile before looking back. ".. This one's bigger than the one in our old house." He added. (@Stew)

Eric groaned a little as he slowly rolled over to face the door; he was down to his boxer shorts, and nothing more. He rubbed his forehead with his hand and then rubbed the tiredness out of his eyes, yawning as he called back to Tom. ".. We'll be right there, dad!" He yelled back, tiredly.
Tom found Carl snuggled up to Scarlet, but as soon as Tom spoke, Carl quickly awoke and sat up, rubbing his eyes. ".. Okay, daddy... I'm hungry now, too." He smiled tiredly and then reached up towards him, expecting a hug and a carry downstairs to the kitchen. (@Soul OMU)

Jenna gave a grunt since she had somehow gotten partially under Eric during the night but made no attempt at moving because she was still tired.


Scarlet fast asleep still, not waking up for a little while since she looks extremely tired. (@DrTrollinski, @DrCompton)

 

[DrCompton]

Tom reached down and lifted Carl up in the hug and looked at Scarlet for a moment, before carrying Carl downstairs to take him to the food that was waiting. He sat Carl down in a chair and sat next to him and started to eat his food. @Soul OMU

Caitlyn didn't know why Alex was upset. Could it be she never told him she cared about him?


Things were a little confusing. She tried to process it all up.


"Alex? I love you!"


@DrTrollinski (I won't be posting too fast.)

 

[DrTrollinski]

Carl started eating his food as well. Yummy. It was a nice change of food from his father, and he was happy that it was well-cooked. It was good food, without a doubt. He wanted to wait for Scarlet before he started eating, but he was too hungry.


".. Can I help you work today, daddy?" He asked. It was a shame, because that would ruin the surprise, but Eric and Jenna had something planned for him to help out with. (@Soul OMU)

Alex froze. Did he just hear that? He did. It was such a relieving thing to hear. He just hoped he hadn't upset her at all - that would crush his heart if he ever upset her. He squeezed her tight and kept his face buried in her towel-covered shoulder; he felt so... complete.


".. Oh, sweetheart... I love you, too... I love you so, so much." He finally admitted it, and he felt his heart drop, but his mood took a complete drop. ".. and I'll never stop, don't you ever forget that. I'm always here for you." He said weakly as he rubbed her back slowly and gently with his hand. (@DryPunishment)

 

[Aldur]

"I won't leave you either,Alex. Or Hunter. I love you both!"


She was not upset at all. She was happy now that Alex told her he loved her too. It was nice. She hugged him back tightly.


After a few moments she asked.


"What about those pancakes?"


@DrTrollinski

 

[DrTrollinski]

He laughed a little and then sniffled, followed by picking her up and carrying her through to her room. He plugged in the hairdryer and started drying her hair off. ".. Once we've got you all dressed up, we'll go and have some yummy pancakes together." He smiled and continued drying her hair off, taking a brush to it while doing so to make sure it didn't get too tangled up. (@DryPunishment)

 

[Aldur]

When Alex was brushing her hair,Caitlyn noticed it was getting a little long.


"Alex I think I need a haircut. Do we have scissors?"


Everytime she'd go to the barber shop, she couldn't sit still for 10 minutes. She constantly moved her head or else she would get bored.


This time,if Alex offered to cut her hair, she would make aj effort to stay still.


@DrTrollinski

 

[DrTrollinski]

".. I think so, too." He smiled as he turned off the hairdryer and then brushed her hair so it was straight once again. He smiled at her and then took her clothes from beside him and moved the towel off of her body, helping her get her underwear and little shirt on first. There, she looked a little more... alive, now. I guess. "You're starting to look like Rapunzel. Soon, you'll be able to hang your hair down from the window, right down to the ground." He smiled warmly at her and laughed under his breath as he helped her into her pants. "Would you like me to cut your hair after breakfast? I can make it look nice, like how it was when we first met." He offered. He could keep her entertained with a book, or maybe TV. A book would be better, as she'd be occupied with reading to him, and that would be good, seeing as she'd not only be demonstrating what Alex and Hunter had been teaching her, but she'd also be sitting still, for the most part. (@DryPunishment)

[Aldur]

"But Rapunzel had a prince to let the hair down to...I don't. Does that mean I need or if I cut my hair then...oww...It's complicated!"


She complicated her own thoughts with even more thoughts. That's a strange feeling. You get so overwhelmed by your own thoughts that you just cannot process.


"Cutting it after breakfast sounds perfect!"


She kept thinking about the pancakes. Could Alex maybe let her help him with them? Hopefully he will.


@DrTrollinski

 

[DrTrollinski]

"Okay." He smiled and swept her up off the ground, kissing her cheek as he walked out of the room with her. ".. We'll work together on this one. You can mix the flour and the eggs together while I make us some drinks." He smiled and carried her down to the kitchen where he sat her at the table and then took some flour, a box of eggs, and a mixing bowl from the fridge and cupboard; he placed them down in front of her, poured some flour into the bowl and then cracked a few eggs into it. He handed her a fork. "Use that to mix it. Don't make a mess, and make sure that it's nice and creamy." He smiled and then turned away to start making some drinks for them both. (@DryPunishment)

 

[Aldur]

((I can't reply anymore. Sorry.Have a good night! @DrTrollinski ))

 

[DrTrollinski]

((Night.))

[Aldur]

Nice and creamy...that's what Alex said. Give her a few seconds and she caught the perfect rhythm for making pancake cream. The absolute best.


The pace wasn't slow neither fast. It was just right.


"Have you made pancakes before,Alex? I didn't. This is the first time!"


When back at home,mommy and daddy didn't let her help around with food too much. The most she'd get to do when her dad was cooking would be to mash potatoes or to mix things. She's never cut anything or touched the oven. Though she helped with mixing things,it was never pancakes. Awkward.


@DrTrollinski

 

[DrTrollinski]

"Oh, of course I have." He smiled a little. "Used to make them all the time for Eric and Carl when our parents were at work." He chuckled as he brewed up some tea. "You ever cooked anything yummy before?" He asked. (@DryPunishment)

 

[Aldur]

"I used to mix omelettes and certain sauces for my dad. He'd tell me to mix until it looked edi-edibl---edible? Yeah edible...What does edible mean?"


She kept mixing not taking her look away from the bowl in which she was making that pancake cream. She had some trouble with certain words,but nothing major. It's just that the words are funny.


"Does it mean eatable?"


@DrTrollinski

 

[DrTrollinski]

"Exactly that, sweetheart." He smiled as he took some milk from the fridge and went over and poured some into the bowl. "Mix that in until it looks nice and smooth." He said as he gently patted her head. The talk of her father didn't bother him too much, seeing as he now knew that she loved him back. "What was your dad like?" He asked with a smile.
