Chapter 3:
The next morning, Cole went straight to his e-mails, nothing. Hopefully they'll send in the results soon so Cole went to breakfast,
"You got the results yet?" Kacy asked,
"Nothing yet." Cole replied,
"I just realised something!" Kacy stated, full of worry,
"What?" Skylor asked,
"Roxy's clothes would've gotten burnt in the fire, she only has what she wore yesterday!" Kacy explained,
"True!" Jackie agreed. Allen tried not to say anything yet since Kai and Skylor were there but he was planning the ultimate shopping trip in his head,
"We need to go shopping after school!" Kacy stated,
"We'll see." Kai rolled his eyes at his daughter's behaviour. After breakfast, Kacy and Jackie went to Kacy's room to start planning the shopping trip when Allen knocked on Kacy's door,
"Big bro! Just the boy we need to talk to." Kacy stated,
"I got you sis. 1st you have to hit 'Cotton On', cheap but worth it…" Allen started listing the shopping dos and don'ts and little did they know that Kai was close enough to hear Allen talking fashion to the girls. Cole checked his e-mails and saw one from the Ninjago Children's Department and clicked on it,
'Mr Cole Brookestone,
Thank you applying to foster Miss Roxy. We've read over your form and we're happy to inform you that they have been accepted and Miss Roxy is now in your causticity. We're positive you'll take great care of her Roxy has been informed of these details.
NCD' the e-mail read and Cole was excited,
"Yes!" Cole stated. He walked out of his room,
"Cole!" Jackie called to grab his attention,
"Shouldn't you be leaving for school?" Cole questioned,
"We have to know if Roxy has been accepted." Jackie stated,
"You'll find out later." Cole stated, no giving anything away,
"Come on, please." Jackie pleaded,
"JACKIE!" Jay called out,
"You better go." Cole stated and Jackie ran off,
"So?" Kacy asked,
"He's not spilling." Jackie sulked and the others groaned.
The teens arrived at the school and Jackie, Kacy and Laura immediately ran up to Roxy,
"So?" Kacy asked,
"Cole didn't tell you?" Roxy asked,
"No." Laura replied,
"Girls…meet your new house mate!" Roxy announced as she placed her hand on her chest and the girls cheered and hugged,
"BURNS!" Roxy warned and the girls separated,
"Sorry." The others apologised,
"It's cool. I still can't believe I'm going to be fostered by one of my idols, I'm TOTALLY freaking out." Roxy admitted,
"Don't worry. Cole's just a taco." Jackie stated and everyone looked at her,
"A taco?" Kacy questioned her cousin,
"Yeah, a taco. Hard on the outside, soft on the in." Jackie explained,
"I see it." Laura chuckled,
"You're uncle's daughter." Kacy stated and Jackie smiled as the bell went.
Kacy and Jackie walked in to english and saw a relief teacher,
"Please be a movie." Jackie stated,
"Yes." Kacy agreed,
"Good morning class. My name is Ms Bullock. 1st tings 1st is the role." Ms Bullock stated, "Kacy!" she called out,
"Here!" Kacy replied and Ms Bullock continued when,
"Jacqueline!" Ms Bullock called out,
"It's just Jackie Ms." Jackie corrected,
"If your name is Jacqueline, you will be called Jacqueline." Ms Bullock stated as she continued the role,
"No one ever calls you Jacqueline." Kacy whispered,
"I know. It's always Jackie unless I'm in big trouble." Jackie replied,
"Kacy, Jacqueline, please stop talking." Ms Bullock snapped and the girls exchanged a weirded out look.
At recess, the group meet up at the same table,
"You would not believe what happened in english!" Jackie stated,
"What?" Nick replied since Jackie looked serious as well as Kacy,
"We had a relief and she called me Jacqueline instead of Jackie." Jackie stated,
"Is it bad that I forgot your name is Jacqueline instead of just Jackie?" Roxy asked,
"We all do." Lucas stated,
"Including me." Jackie admitted,
"How do you forget your whole name?" Pixen asked,
"I'm always call Jackie and the only time I'm Jacqueline is when I'm in BIG trouble." Jackie explained.
After school, the group except Allen and Brandon were waiting at the gate when Kai, Zane and Cole pulled up. When Kai pulled up, he noticed Allen further in the school talking to Brandon when the 2 hugged them kissed before going their separate ways. Kai was shocked at this and decide to ask him about this later. Kacy, Allen, Jackie and Nick went into Kai's car, Pixen, Lucas and Laura went into Zane's car and Roxy went into Cole's car since they had to make a pit stop to gather what Roxy did have from the orphanage,
"Hi." Roxy stated,
"Hey. Looks like I'm looking after you now." Cole replied,
"Yeah. Thanks again." Roxy stated,
"No probs." Cole replied. Back at the temple, Allen was studying in his room and Kai took this opportunity to talk to him. Kai knocked on the door and Allen looked to see his father,
"Hey dad. What's up?" Allen asked,
"We need to talk about something." Kai stated,
"Ok." Allen replied, suddenly uncomfortable,
"When I was at the school, picking you guys up, I saw you this boy." Kai stated and Allen nodded, "Is there something me and your mother should know?" Kai asked,
"Like what?" Allen asked,
"Like any sort of relationship or something?" Kai explained,
"Well…um…" Allen tried to start when Kacy walked in,
"Allen, there's this new store and I need you opinion on it." Kacy stated and when she saw the situation, "I'll come back later." Kacy stated as she backed out,
"New store?" Kai asked Allen,
"There is something I've been trying to tell you and mum but…um…I'm not sure on how you'll react." Allen explained,
"You can tell me now." Kai stated,
"Yeah…it's just that…um…I'm…" Allen started,
"You're what?" Kai asked,
"I'm actually…gay." Allen admitted quietly but Kai still understood,
"Gay?" Kai questioned,
"Yeah." Allen confirmed,
"Ok. So is that boy?" Kai asked,
"My boyfriend? Yeah." Allen answered,
"Since when?" Kai asked,
"When what? The boyfriend or being gay?" Allen asked,
"Both?" Kai stated,
"I've been gay since I was 13 and I've been going out with Brandon for about 2 months now." Allen explained,
"Ok." Kai stated,
"Ok." Allen repeated,
"Good talk." Kai stated,
"Yeah. Good talk." Allen agreed,
"You do realise you could've told us earlier?" Kai asked,
"Like I said, I didn't know how you guys would reacted." Allen explained when Allen got a text,
"Who's that from?" Kai asked,
"Brandon." Allen explained,
"The boyfriend?" Kai guessed and Allen nodded, "I'll leave you to it." Kai stated and left and Allen was relieved. Relieved that he told his dad and that the talk was over,
'Hey.' Brandon texted,
'Hey. What's up?' Allen replied,
'Anything new other than Roxy?' Brandon asked,
'Dad.' Allen answered,
'What about him?' Brandon asked,
'He saw us kiss at school and when we got home, he came a talked to me and I finally got to tell him I was gay.' Allen explained,
'I'm so proud!' Brandon stated,
'Thanks.' Allen replied,
'I gtg. Babysitting lil sis. Bye 3.' Brandon texted,
'Have fun! Bye 3.' Allen replied and got back to studying when Kacy knocked on his door,
"Is the awkward father son talk over?" Kacy asked,
"Yep." Allen replied,
"What was that about?" Kacy asked as she sat on Allen's bed,
"Dad caught me at the school with Brandon and I finally got to tell him." Allen explained and Kacy hugged him,
"Finally! Now it's off your shoulders." Kacy stated and Allen smiled,
"So that store you were talking about earlier?" Allen asked.
Cole and Roxy walked into the temple,
"We're here!" Cole called out and Jackie flashed around the corner,
"YOU'RE HERE!" Jackie called,
"Is it me or have you some how gotten louder?" Roxy asked,
"No idea." Nick answered as he walked by, "Welcome to your new home." He added,
"Girl, here's the game plan. We'll give you the tour cos somehow you've never been here, then we'll set up your room and then go shopping since your clothes got burnt in the fire." Kacy explained,
"I'm restricted on the clothes for now." Roxy pointed out,
"No probs. Allen pointed out this new store where do clothes that are perfect for your condition and style." Kacy explained,
"Allen?" Cole asked,
"Yep." Kacy replied,
"Speaking of which. Has he?" Roxy asked,
"Yep." Allen replied as he lent on the wall and Roxy high-fived him,
"Let's go." Jackie stated as she led the group to Roxy's new room. The girls were setting up what they could of Roxy's new room,
"Next on the list, shopping." Kacy stated,
"Um guys, I don't have any money." Roxy pointed out,
"No probs girl. I've got extra." Kacy explained,
"I couldn't." Roxy denied,
"You will. You need new clothes girl. You can just wear that for the next, how long?" Kacy asked,
"About 6 months." Roxy explained,
"6 months?" Jackie asked,
"I did get burnt pretty badly." Roxy pointed out,
"Any way. You can't wear that for 6 months." Kacy stated,
"You girls alright in here?" Cole asked as he popped his head in,
"Yep." Jackie replied,
"Yeah." Kacy replied and Roxy nodded when they heard Laura scream and Lloyd and Lucas were there,
"What's wrong?" Lloyd asked,
"LUCAS WE WON!" Laura as Lucas ran to the computer and checked,
"YEAH!" Lucas cheered,
"The comp?" Lloyd asked,
"Yeah!" Laura confirmed as the twins cheered,
"I thought you 2 were crazy before. Know I know how far it can get." Roxy stated,
"No you haven't girl. They somehow get crazier." Kacy corrected,
"How?" Roxy asked,
"They're the L twins. What do you think?" Kacy asked,
"You're right." Roxy replied with a chuckle.
