Realistic or Modern "We're the Foster kids"

[FluffyMarshmallow]

Emily smiled at the new arrivals of people "Hey.. I'll be right back Samantha, I have to get something from my room" she said and rushed upstairs, she almost bumped into another foster and her foster dad Eric "Sorry" she apologized and shrunk back, she was used to getting screamed at after making a mistake, she mentally scolded herself, though these parents seemed different, but you could never be sure. The foster seemed stressed, either he was new to this or had strong anxiety. She gave him a friendly smile to give him a bit of relief, and she instantly wondered if he liked Pegasus and mythology.

Samantha nodded to Emily. "Hurry back. And see if you can't find the others and motivate them to come eat!" she called after her.


"Hey, slow down, Roadrunner," Eric joked to Emily. "Okay, Joel, looks like we've got two empty rooms here, and another down the hall. Where do you want to look first?"

 

[JoelHPIS]

Joel wasn't paying much attention at all. He simply couldn't. He could hardly hear them, he was trying so hard to calm himself down. He felt sick and really wanted his brother. He had flinched at the touch and felt tears form once more. He wanted out. He swayed a little and suddenly gripped onto Eric's arm tightly to keep himself from falling. Panicking usually set his anemia off and here it was.


"I-I can't..." He mumbled almost silently.

"Okay, it's okay," Eric said calmly. "Let's just sit for a minute. Go on, Emily, let's give Joel a little space." Eric helped Joel sit down with his back against the wall, and let go to sit across from him. "Just breathe for a minute. You're going to be just fine, Joel."

 

[JoelHPIS]

Joel let himself be sat down and curled up, hugging his knees once more. He took deep breaths for a few minutes as his breathing evened out. He seemed scared as he looked up at Eric.


"I-I'm sorry... Please don't hurt me..." He sobbed quietly. His step father would have hurt him bad for pulling such a 'stunt'. He moved, suddenly running off quickly to escape the punishment he was sure he would get.

Emily rushed off quickly, the kid looked like he was having a panic attack and she didn't want to upset the boy, she wanted to get a flashlight and her phone for a walk in the dark, being good or not she wasn't going to give up her nightly walk for anything. She pulled out a sticky note and wrote that she was going on a walk and leave her cell number, for after dinner of course, she wasn't interested in starving. She kept the flashlight in her satchel and her phone right beside it, she left the room after making sure that she had a full battery. She walked downstairs, avoiding Joel and Eric, she didn't want to make him feel worse, it was always hard being a foster, new or not. She stood on the stairs and watched the innocent kids that hadn't been through the system. She sat on the steps and ran her hand through her hair, it was a nervous habit she had.

Jay saw Emily looking a little nervous. Jay followed her out side and sat next to her. "Hey Emily, you alright??" Jay asked as he lightly poked her cheek trying to lightning the mood. Jay took his finger back and just looked at the sunset.

 

[Talieann]

(I'm starting to think dinner was a good idea in theory, but not likely to happen in reality, since we aren't all on at the same time. Maybe let's don't and say we did? What do you guys think?)


Eric crossed his legs and watched Joel without staring, saying nothing and just letting him think. When Joel finally did speak, Eric just look confused. He frowned slightly and shook his head. "Hurt you? Joel, I would never--Joel?" He resisted the urge to yell after him, knowing that would only scare him more. He rubbed his open palm against the side of his face instead. What have we gotten ourselves into? No, no, you knew it could be like this, and it's not all that bad. He did look really pale, though, that concerns me. Kid probably needs to eat something. But for now, he probably just needed space. He would talk to Joel later, he and Samantha both would, about how he didn't need to worry about getting hurt, not while he lived with them. Eric unfolded his large frame and stood up again, stretching his back once before knocking on a few doors and heading back downstairs.

 

[JoelHPIS]

(Yeah, I'm going to bed fairly soon...)


Joel kept running until he found an empty bathroom. He quickly locked the door and fell against it, breathing heavily. He had tears falling down his pale face as he dialled his brother's number.


"Hey Joel!"


"T-They're gonna hurt me!" Joel cried, completely panicking.


"Joel shh... Calm down, okay? They won't hurt you. I promise Joel. Everything's okay."


Joel went quiet for a moment before looking at his reflection, feeling dizzy. He held onto the wall shakily, feeling sick.


"J-Josh..."


"Joel, calm down. You're okay. I'm gonna ring Eric and get back with you, okay?"


When Joel heard the line go dead, he fell to his knees, holding his arms tight.


Josh rang Eric and explained that he knew Joel was panicking bad and needed help, that he was worried for him. He insisted Eric find him and help him.

Emily looked up at jay and gave him a reassuring smile, to ease his worries "I'm just calculating how long i'll be here, I think every foster kid does it at least once, this place is too good for me, I'll probably be with the Sanders by the end off the month" That was something she truly believed, with her past it would be inevitable, some habits she just couldn't get rid of, like sneaking out at night, it was her favorite thing to do, the Sanders were a family that she stayed with that just didn't care about her, they just wanted that check at the end of the month.

Hey let me tell you something. I was going to go to the teen club that opened up last night. It opens about 11 pm, if you want to go I will take you." Jay said as he smiled, and blushed as he looked at Emily.

(@AnarchyReins just casually mentioning his own rp xD )

Once everyone was done eating, she grabbed as many plates as she could balance on her small arms and carried them to the sink. After all the craziness of the day she figured she could at least help out.


@ anyone

 

[AnarchyReins]

(Dang it I was caught xD )

[Talieann]

Eric answered his phone. "Josh? Hey." He frowned a bit in concentration as he listened, then climbed the staircase of the large house yet again. "Yeah, yeah, I'll talk to him. But listen, is there anything in particular that might be, I don't know, reassuring for him? I mean, Is there anything Sam and I oughta say or do to make him more comfortable?" He poked his head through open doorways, but Joel wasn't in any of them. He turned a corner and kept walking.


Samantha smiled while she scraped the few leftovers into a Tupperware container. "You didn't have to do the dishes, AJ," she said appreciatively.

 

[FluffyMarshmallow]

Emily gave him a quick smile and wrapped her arm around his shoulder "I think i'll be fine" She got up off of the steps and ruffled his hair "Don't worry about me too much" she winked at him and walked upstairs and towards her attic bedroom. She sat on her bed and played music on her laptop wearing her headphones of course and singing softly along to the song C'mon by Panic At The Disco, trying not to disturb everyone even if she was isolated up there


@AnarchyReins

 

[JoelHPIS]

Josh sighed and thought for a moment.


"You need to assure him he's safe. Try talking about music to him, especially guitars. He really loves it. Encourage him to come and play his guitar since it calms him down." He told him.


(Yeah, off to bed night)


@Talieann

 

[AnarchyReins]

Jay blushed like a fat running a marathon. He watched her walk back to her room. Of course he wasn't checking her out no that would we weird. Jay went to the back yard and plugged his phone back into the speakers and started playing teenage dirtbag, singing every word on point.

 

[amxlia]

Angel "AJ" Hansen

"Oh it's no bother Ms. S," she said with a smile wiping the soapy water off of her hands onto her jeans," I mean it's the least I could do. These kids seem nice, but you've got your hands full! Well, I better get going, my mom'll wonder where I've gotten off to, I hope everyone enjoys the cake!"





She walked outside with a wave and looked out at the clear night with a smile. She heard Jay singing and peeked over the fence, resisting the urge to laugh at him. He wasn't a bad singer it was just funny to watch him singing "Teenage Dirtbag" loud and proud.


(I had an idea, what if AJ likes Jay, but she sees he likes Emily so helps them get together anyway?)





@Talieann @AnarchyReins

 

[AnarchyReins]

(AN idea to your idea. What if Jay all along has had a crush of AJ, but thinks she doesn't like him. SO he goes for emily, maybe leading into a love triangle??)

 

[amxlia]

(Okay, now I'm slightly confused, but sure if @FluffyMarshmallow 's up for it xD )

 

[FluffyMarshmallow]

(Lets have my miss Emily completely oblivious to this, just a bit suspicious, till AJ talks to her, really all along hadn't thought of Jay in that way @AnarchyReins @Smoaki )

 

[amxlia]

(alright let's do this! lol, back to the rp?)

 

[amxlia]

(@AnarchyReins you going to respond?)

 

[AnarchyReins]

Jay heard a faint giggle come from the fence. He looks over and sees AJ. "Hey Sunshine, how is my best friend doing??" Jay asked as he took off his shirt and jumped back into the pool. Jay surface just in time to hear his favorite part of the song.
