Because of You .IC. ( )

Welcome to the life of the three Way children. They grew up with an alcoholic as a father who physically and mentally abused their mother and them. He cheated on her often and then finally he left. The children and there mother moved into a smaller house that they still could barely afford and each one of them were scarred for their life because of what their father did and didn't do.

2008: The three Way children are all between 16 and 25 now. One morning they get a phone call. The person on the other line is thier father's attorney. This man tells them that their father and his new wife have been killed in a plane crash. The Way's knew that their father had new children with his new wife but they never thought of meeting them. They would have to now because they were notified by this attorney that their father left them as the guardians to his two children who are between the age of 6 and 15. You also learn that from the time your father left your mother he became very succesful and bought two houses in Southern California. One that the Way children will own and the other that will be sold and the profits divided amongst them. The Way's now know that they have to raise these kids normally because they don't want to screw up like their father did. But can they?



Tyler woke up at 8:19 AM. He rolled out of bed and threw the covers neatly back onto his bed so that his mother wouldn't be bugging him about it all day. He rubbed his eyes as he walked over to the window and saw that the sky was shining and bright blue with a few puffy white clouds wondering around the vast sky. He pulled the window open and smiled as the light summer breeze filled the room. Today was pretty chilly compared to the rest of the July days they had had during the summer.

Tyler shuffled back over to his closet where he pulled out a black shirt from Pac Sun and a pair of jeans. He shook his hair out and grinned as it fell out of place. He didn't mind, that was the way he liked it. Quickly Tyler remembered that he should text Kearra because today was the day that her new half-siblings would be moving in with her. Tyler hadn't talked to Kearra about it much but he knew that she wasn't too excited for it. He grabbed his phone from the top of his desk and texted Keara: morning. want to hang out today?

Slowly, he walked down stairs with the phone in his pocket. He slid across the shining wooden floors into his family's kitchen. It had recently been re-done leaving it with sparkling granite counter tops, a new and more modern refrigerator and totally new and more modern furniture. Tyler sat down ontop of one of the counters as he began to eat pieces of bacon that he knew his mother had cooked for him. Tyler was very thankful to have parents, especially recently because of how he knew Kearra had lost hers so suddenly.

Kerra's alarm went off at 8am. About 15 minutes early. "I really need to get a new alarm clock.." she groaned and rolled over in bed shutting it off. Getting out of bed she stretched and shook her head before rubbing her eyes and making her way to the bathroom.

She took a quick shower and was out about 10 minutes after getting in. She brushed her teeth and then went back to her room where she put on a pair of skinny jeans and a Iron Maiden shirt. Her phone began vibrating and she grabbed it. Noticing a text from Tyler she smiled. sure. what did you have in mind? she sent the text back and tossed her phone on her bed while she put her converse on. Going back to the bathroom, Kerra pulled out the blow dryer and dried her hair. Once it was all dried she ran a brush through it and her hands and then let it fall the way it wanted too. Next she applied her dark eyeliner and eyeshadow before going back to her room and picking up her phone.

She then made her way downstairs and plopped onto the couch as she waited for Tyler's text.

Beep! The alarm clock sounded. Tobi slammed down the off button. He rolled off his bed and hit a button. The Crimson by Atreyu flared throughout the house as he changed into his usual attire: black T-shirt, wristbands, fishnet stocking sleeves, fingerless gloves, chains, etc. He rubbed his scars and scabs as he walked into the kitchen. He sat alone and stared at the full bowl of cereal in front of him as he listened to Hand of Blood by Bullet For My Valentine.

Brooke lay on the cold wooden floor of her bedroom. She stared up at the pink ceiling which matched the pink walls. Her bed sat in the corner of her room and the pink covers lay perfectly on top covered with all of Brooke's stuffed animals and dolls. She continued to lay there, staring at the ceiling until she heard footprints on the stairs. She sat up knowing that Kearra was awake so now she could go downstairs.

Slowly she crept down the large, wooden stairs until she reached the living room. Brooke shivered at how empty the house felt. It had only been six days since her parents had both been announced dead but to Brooke it felt as if they'd been gone forever. She still believed that they were coming back though. Quietly, she sat down on the couch next to Kearra. "Are mom and dad home?" She half whispered. She knew the answer would be no. She remembered their social worker telling them about their half-siblings who were now their legal guardians.

Geenie was very annoyed.

Bad enough that the airlines had screwed up her ticket and lost her luggage, but the handle on her art case had snapped as she stepped out of the cab and pastels were rolling everywhere, staining the walkways in front of the house. Bad enough that she hadn't actually seen her sister and brother in months what with finals going on at school, but she would now show up with dirty, stained fingers and tattered baggage.

Perfect.

Cursing all the way, Geenie shoved her supplies hastily into the bag, grimacing at the thought of organizing it all later. The time may have had something to do with the horrible mood she was in... she'd caught the earliest flight she could in hopes of being there as soon as possible for the newest Way children.

She took a moment to smooth her hair down (probably streaking it with pastel...) before she rang the doorbell. It had been a long time...

Tyler practically fell off of the counter top when he heard his phone loudly beeping from his pocket. The noise echoed off of the ceiling to fill the once silent room with noise. He regained himself as he slid his phone open and read Kearra's text.

anything you want. aren't your siblings coming today and all? He replied quickly. He finished eating and carried the glass plate over to the sink where he dropped it in and walked into the living room. He sat down in front of the large TV and began flipping through the channels.

Tobi sighed and got up. He skulked over to the door and opened it slowly. There stood the only person he ever trusted. "G... Geenie? Hi... Wh.. What are you doing home?" He turned off his iPod and put it away. He moved and grabbed some of her luggage for her.

Claire looked around her empty apartment, then felt a buzzing from her phone in her back pocket. She sighed. It was time to catch her flight to California. All her stuff had already been shipped there, and should be arriving later today. All besides the things she still had with her: her cat, Coco; her dog, Sassy; two suitcases; her purse, and everything inside of the suitcases and purse. Claire looked down at her outfit. Today, she was wearing a pair of light blue sweatpants, a long sleeved black and light blue striped fitted shirt, and a pair of black polished ballet flats. Her curly hair was pulled up into a messy bun at the nape of her neck, and her bangs were hanging in her eyes. She had a light blue headband hidden in her curls, and in her ears were two pairs of studs. She grabbed all of her things, and walked to the door of her apartment. This might very well be the last time she would get to see it. "Bye," Claire murmured to her home, then flicked the lights off and walked out the door. She shut it softly, the impact yet to hit. She knew she wouldn't come back, unless she could in the next year or so. She had already informed her University that she was heading to California, and she had found an opening in a school there, and quite close to her new house. She felt the tears in the corner of her eyes, but wiped them away and walked down the stairs. She headed out into the crowded streets of Manhatten, and felt a single tear trickle down her cheek. It hadn't worked. Even after preparing for this moment, she was still getting upset. Claire hailed a taxi, and placed her things in the trunk. She climbed into the backseat, and told the driver to take her to the airport. She gazed out the window at her tall apartment building, and sighed deeply. She would miss her home. Her old home, and all her friends here at the University. But she would survive. Hopefully. Claire watched the familiar sights of the Manhatten streets fly by the window as they approached the airport. "Goodbye," Claire said as she climbed out of the taxi at the airport. She grabbed her things out of the trunk, paid the driver, then walked into the airport. Claire handed her ticket to the lady at the desk. "You'll have to hurry through security, honey. Your plane leaves in half an hour," The lady said dissaprovingly, handing back the ticket and pointing toward security. Claire nodded, and walked over to security.
She wonders "Why?" Does anyone ever hear her when she cries? This is the dark before the dawn. The storm before the peace. Don't be afraid, the seasons change.

"G...Geenie? Hi...Wh...What are you doing home?" Tobi stuttered. Of course he would reach down and grab her bags. Geenie grinned back at him, swatting the bags out of his hand.

"What's with that, huh? I want a hug, little brother! It's been long enough," she laughed and enveloped him in a tight embrace. It was good to have him back in her arms... he had gotten thin in her absence. She pressed her lips together. She would just have to take care of that. Pulling away, she grabbed up only half of her bags, trusting him to the rest, and bustled into the house, taking it all in as she went. "Anyway, I'm home because it's home. I graduated early a few months ago and I'm up for classes at the University..." she trailed off, shrugging.

"Have you eaten yet? Are you hungry? I learned to make some pretty mean french toast while I was gone. Where're any of the new kids? How have you been? Are you doing okay?"

((You guys keep spelling Kerra's name wrong. lol. There's no "a" after the e.))

Kerra frowned. "No. Brooke." was all she said to her younger sister who was now sitting beside her. Her phone began vibrating. She frowned once more. They are not my siblings..Brooke is my only sibling...and come over we can play video games or something because I'm pretty sure I can't go anywhere unless I bring the brat with me. she sent back and looked at Brooke. "Tyler's coming over." she said getting up.

He welcomed the embrace. It was good to have her home again. He grabbed the rest of her bags and followed. He tried answering her questions, but he may as well have not said anything. His vocal cords are not used to working. "I.. Am just... Just about the same. The others... Haven't arrived. Just us..." He hesitated about the food. He couldn't tell her about his anorexia. She was probably worried enough about his cutting. "I... Erm... Just ate. Thanks anyways... What about you?"

Claire sat aboard her flight, the time passing fast. Especially since she had fallen asleep five minutes after takeoff. When she had woken up, she had taken to gazing out the window. They were almost to California. It would be warm there. Warmer than Manhatten. Warmer than she was used to, and wanted it. That's why she had liked Manhatten. Claire heard a loud beep. "Attention all passengers, we are about to land. Please, fasten your seatbelts, and prepare for landing," Came a polite voice over the inercom. Claire pulled out her iPod, and plugged it into her ears. She hated landing. It was always the worst part for her. She gazed back out the window, making sure to fasten her seatbelt. In under an hour, she would be with her siblings again. The last time she had saw them was her birthday, when they came up to Manhatten to surprise her. She smiled, and knew her eyes were sparkling from excitement. She couldn't help thinking of her old home. Oh, how she would miss it. She saw the ground coming closer out the window, and shut her eyes tightly. She breathed deeply, trying to stay calm. There was barely anyone else on the plane, and all the attendants were up front in the cockpit.

[[ Sorry D:! I have a cousin named Keara so I just automatically spell that when I see the close spelling. ]]


Tyler felt his heard his phone start beeping again. This time it didn't startle him as flipped the channel to the Giants vs. Jets football game. He pulled his phone and slid it open as he read Kerra's text message. He smiled as he stood up and texted her back.

whatever you say ;]. brooke isn't too bad anyway but ok. when should i come over?
After sending his reply he walked upstairs and pulled on a black and blue plaid sweatshirt. He shoved ten dollars into his pocket and walked back downstairs.

((Dude, where are we and where are the ya'll? Are there two different houses? O.o))

Geenie sighed. She didn't like talking about herself. It forced her to think about herself, something she usually avoided at all costs. "I guess I'm the same too," she murmured. "And I'm starving. Damn airport was trying to kill me, I swear it." 'Smooth, Gianne,' she sighed internally. 'Nice transition.' She clattered around the kitchen in silence for a while, poking around for the necessary ingredients for her breakfast.

Only once the french toast was done and the strips of bacon she had found were sizzling away in the pan did Geenie allow herself a fleeting glance at her younger brother, biting her lower lip. "So... how're you holding up? I mean, with the... the death and everything..." She poked at the bacon nervously, somewhat surprised at herself. She was normally much better at smothering her indecisinve tendencies. "I mean, I'm here if you want to talk about it."

[[ I thought you guys were coming to our character's house to live but I don't really know. Me and Kerra are at their father and mother's home and I think you guys are at your mother's home. ]]


Brooke sighed dramatically. "They're taking a while," She commented as she flopped back into the couch. She then heard Kerra announce that Tyler was coming over. "What are we gonna do with Tyler?" Brooke asked happily. She liked to include herself in all of Kerra's plans no matter what.

Kerra smiled. now duh. she sent back and put her phone in her pocket as she began looking through the box of video games. They had a lot since they always got what they wanted. They meaning her and her sister Brooke. Kerra pulled out Sims 2 and decided it would be appropriate enough plus she wanted to finish making her family with Tyler. She smiled at the thought and decided to text him again. we're playing Sims 2 so we can finish making our Sim family and do all the Sim stuff. ;] she sent the text and then waited for him to arrive. She looked back at Brooke. "Tyler and I are going to play The Sims 2. If you can go find the extra controller you can play with us." she told her sister.

Claire walked out of the airport, carrying all of her luggage and breathing in relief. She looked around, expecting to see a cab, but all she saw were cars. No cab, but plain cars. Claire scoffed, and walked down the street. There was one cab. Claire hailed it, and it surprisingly stopped. She climbed in, along with her belongings, and tossed a piece of paper over the seat that had the address for her brother's house. She was going to meet up there with her siblings, then head over to the new kids's house after they got home from school. The cab driver nodded, and took her there. She climbed out of the cab, after paying, and looked at the building. She walked up to the door, and rang the doorbell. It was so hot here! Claire pushed the sleeves of her shirt up to her elbow, waiting for her brother to come get the door.

He said nothing. He just gazed at his forearm and looked back at her. He watched as her gaze repeated his. He saw she understood. "I'll uh... Be upstairs in my room..." He walked away and flopped on his bed, remembering how their father used to beat him and Geenie. He gazed at the blood-stained knife on his nightstand and grabbed hold of it. He just held it, nothing else. But it's always there if he needed it. He put down the knife and put some Atreyu on, again heard throughout the house.

"I'll just watch," Brooke said. She quickly ran up the stairs and back into her bedroom. She quickly put on a pair of dark jeans, a pink tank top and a white Juicy Couture sweatshirt on. Pulling a blanket off of her bed, she walked back out into the hall, dragging the blanket behind her. Brooke jumped down each of the steps, noisly until she reached the floor. Smiling to herself, she made her way back over to the living room and sat down on the couch, pulling the blanket up around her. Although it was summer, their house was air conditioned and Brooke was freezing. "Go make me hot chocolate," She said to Kerra.

Geenie bit her lip even harder as Tobi disappeared around the corner. As soon as he was out of her sight, she thought of a million things she could have said to him, some of them comforting, some of them tough and callous, some of them weak.

None of them were particularly appropriate.

Ding Dong

Geenie frowned. This wasn't exactly her house, but she was sure she knew who it probably was. She somehow found her way back to the front door and peered through the peep hole. She smiled and threw open the door.

"What's up, Claire?"
