Well, I re-done this chapter. It's like 1000 words shorter but...oh well. Good or bad comments are wanted, I like to know what people think of my rubbish stories XD It would help if you could also review and say which wolf you would like with which kid. Or any of them you think shouldn't be imprinted on. Boyxboy and girlxgirl can be allowed.
Today was the day. It was the day they had completed the fostering papers. They could officially be foster parents; Emily couldn't have been happier. It was November 12th and for the past month and a few days, the couple had done nothing but the papers, get the house checked and all the other necessary things they needed to do. They had finally finished and were looking online at the closest foster home to them. According to their findings, there was quite a large home in Seattle, only around four hours away from them. They decided to foster a child who was older than four-ish but younger than 17. They aged out of the system at 18 so all they'd be doing is looking after them until they aged out – where they would help them get on their feet as much as they could. Having a teenage wouldn't be a problem with all of the shape shifting teenagers they had in their house hold often. But the question was, how many children? Emily wanted more than one so the child wouldn't be alone; Sam wasn't so sure. After looking at the site again, they decided to leave it in the hands of the social workers. They'd get any number of children whatever the age.
A few months and a frantic Emily later, on the 2nd February, a car had pulled up in the drive. Since they wanted to get to know the child, or children, they banned all the other wolves and imprints from the home so they wouldn't scare the newcomers. Coming to the door, Sam wrapped his arms around Emily, watching as the social worker got out the driver's side of the car. She walked over to the couple, a frown on her face.
"Hello, I'm Lorraine. I'm terribly sorry to have to do this but they needed a place to go urgently as something went wrong at one of our main group homes. Many children are being randomly scattered around the country with many foster families and your profile said about you being alright with the age, gender and amount of the child. I-"
The social worker rambled on and on until Sam held a hand up and Emily chuckled speaking quickly.
"It's alright, we don't mind. Can we meet them?"
Lorraine nodded, turning to the car and making a gesture for the people in the car to get out. The first child out was in the front sea. He was a male, a tall one at that. He was almost as tall at Sam at around 6'2. He was wearing a Green Day shirt, black skinny jeans and dark blue converse. His pitch black hair covered the majority of his forehead, the length of it coming to his chin around the sides. His right eyebrow was pierced as well as his left ear. He closed the passenger door, walking to the boot of the car and grabbed a duffle bag, throwing it over his shoulder before going to the back passenger door. It looked like he lent in to grab something but turned back around with a young child on his hip. He grabbed her bags and closed the door before walking over to Sam and Emily.
"This is Melody, she's nine and that's Tobias, he's fifteen. This is Sam and Emily." Lorraine explained before turning to Tobias, "Where's the others?"
Her question caused Sam's eyes to widen slightly at the idea of being more than three children.
"Noah is trying to get Hunter out the back." He stated, adjusting Melody on his hip. She rested her head on his shoulder. Melody was wearing a bright purple skirt, light pale pink tights, a stripy dark blue and red top. Her feet were covered by purple socks which were pulled up to her knees, pink crocs over them. Her medium ash brown hair was in pigtails which rested on her shoulders.
"Would you like me to go get your brothers' bags then?" Sam asked, ready to go and fetch the other children's things.
Melody giggled while Tobias just chuckled, shaking his head.
Finally, a head popped out of the car before quite a moody looking boy followed. He was wearing a dark brown shirt with long sleeves, dark blue jogging bottoms and black trainers which looked as if they were going to fall apart any time now. His dark brown ear length hair was swept to the side effortlessly, like it was natural for it to go that slightly odd direction. He grabbed his bags from the boot and walked over to his siblings. He glared at the couple and social worker before stuffing his hands in his pockets.
"Are you Hunter or Noah?" Sam raised his eyebrow at the boy, crossing his arms.
The boy scoffed and started to laugh before getting nudged in his side by his older brother. He rolled his eyes before speaking.
"Hunter. Ten." He said his age proudly as he puffed his chest out a little
"Is your brother coming out too?" Emily inquired, frowning at the missing sibling.
"Yeah.'He' is coming." Hunter bit his lip to stop himself from laughing at his own joke.
Sam was about to say something when the back car door opened again and a scruffy converse glad person stepped out. It was a girl. She had dyed lagoon blue hair. It went just past her shoulders and was heavily layered in choppy cuts at the side. She had a fringe that covered her right eye and most her forehead. She was wearing a dark grey top with a red and black plaid shirt which was over the top, the buttons open. She had dark blue skinny jeans; any normal person could see that she was extremely skinny. She clearly wasn't as big in height as the tall male that seemed around the same age as her. The couple could see she had many piercings such as her left eyebrow, nose and snake bites along with many ear piercings. She closed the door before grabbing a backpack from the boot, finally closing the boot door. She walked over to the rest of them, nodding to the couple.
"So.. You're Noah?" Emily asked uncertain. When she got a nod, Lorraine started speaking again.
"I have their files here, I have to rush but you can read through them whenever you like. You're now their guardians. Good luck." She said before dashing off to the car leaving the four children and the couple together.
"Well, would you like to come inside?"
