Lucas & Christian

"Yes, I'll probably be visiting a lot." Lucas just smiled as it seemed Alyson was finally coming around. He couldn't blame her for being guarded after the way she had been treated when she first arrived and although he hadn't been as unwelcoming as Blake he also hadn't been as welcoming as Zach. He hoped as things got better for her she would dismantle some of her walls. The orphanage wasn't the greatest place in the world but it could always be worst. He rather be in Ms. Morgan's care they in some random group home with people who didn't give a shit about him.

"I'm sure Blake only got his own room by being the jerk he is, I could never stoop that low in order to obtain something like that in this hell." Lucas said nothing to this as he in truth didn't know how Blake had been granted with a room of his own. When he got to the orphanage Blake was already a resident with his own room and when he got placed in a room with Zach he asked no questions. After getting to know Blake it hadn't been like him and Lucas were best bros and seeing the way he treated his other fellow orphans Lucas had just considered himself lucky.

"Change in roommate?" he could hear a sigh escape the blonde. "I wish it were possible to room with you and Zach. Y'all are the only good things about this place."He gave a small laugh and smiled as she turned away, "Believe me if it wasn't for the whole no co-ed rooming in this place me and Zach would gladly take you in. If it makes you feel any better you only have to sleep in your room. Zach and I are will always be just down the hall," he tone was reassuring as he was trying to help Alyson see the silver lining in her not so fortunate situation.

"Yes, I party." After quietly observing the teenage boys she sat between Alyson voice chimed in. Lucas was hoping that the arrival of Christian wasn't making Alyson uncomfortable. Christian had ran away a couple of months back and to see an old friendly face had gotten Lucas pretty excited. "I'd rather just stay here with Zach."

The two boys gazed at each other for a slight moment before looking back at Alyson and nodding. "That's cool." Christian said with a smile, "Your probably better off hanging with Zach over us anyways. Because throwing Christian and me along with Cassie into a party is always a recipe for utter madness." Christian smiling his sly grin added in "An utterly great madness!" The two boys laughed an neither of them could wait until the house went to sleep so that they could sneak out and have some fun. Even orphans deserved to have fun every once in while.

"So you sneak out a lot?" When Alyson asked this the two boys looked at each other and gave light shrugs before looking back at the blonde. "Well giving the fact that I've been a runaway I haven't had to do much sneaking out," Christian said nonchalantly. "I .. I don't really sneak out a lot. I mean I would love to as its always a lot of fun when I do. However, sneaky out is a risky business and a lot of times its really not worth the risk of getting caught."

Lucas had every intention of spending the rest of his time in the system at Ms.Morgan's orphanage. What he would do after he got out was a mystery to him. He thought about tracking down his brother but where to begin he was clueless and even if he found him what then. He thought about going into his military and from there if he actually survived his years in service going to college. Lucas was a man of ideas but no real plan. As of right now his only real priority was just getting out of the system. Everything else he would have to figure out later.
