Alana And Oscar

A/N: Thank you so much for all your characters. I finally settled on two kids and they are Jamie Bowen, created by PurpleRabbit11 and Cassie Andrews, created by scared of the moonlight. do not be disheartened if I haven't used yours, it's just I had so many and I had to pick some. Sorry.

One

The two kids looked up at the looming building. From where they were sat in the car it looked quite daunting but it seemed nice enough with its cream painted walls and red tiled roof. They clambered out of the car and picked up their suitcases. All the possessions they had left.

The first child was a boy, he was 15 years of age and had floppy browny blonde hair that covered part of his left eye. He was wearing jeans and a t-shirt which said 'Don't mess with me' on it. He had vivid green eyes and had a blue hoodie tied round his waist.

The other child was a girl, she was 12 years old and had long browny blonde hair with a fringe that she had clipped out the way. She was wearing a short white skirt and a t-shirt which was ripped in several places. She had the same green eyes as her brother and had a purple hoodie tied round her waist.

The pair of them, accompanied by their social worker James, walked up to the door. It was opened by a balding man who had an Irish accent. "hello, welcome to Elm Tree house," he said kindly. The girl raised an eyebrow and as she was ushered into the office she saw the stares of the other residents.

"I'm Mike, this is Gina and Tracy. You must be Oscar," Mike said turning away from the girls hard stare once in the office to look at the boy before turning back to her, "and Alana Winters." The boy, Oscar, nodded. It was the second care home he had ever been in and it was bigger and slightly more scary than the only other one he had lived in, Stella House. Alana glanced around the office and spotted several pictures which were painted by what seemed to be a young boy from the handwriting. This was her thirteenth care home and it was much like the rest, just this time she knew if she got kicked out she had nowhere left to go except boarding school. Alana made an effort to smile at Mike.

"yes. That's right. I'm 12 and my brother is 15," she stated calmly. All three care workers seemed nice but as she knew appearances could be deceiving.

"Yes we knew that. I'm afraid you are going to have to share rooms. We have no other space I'm afraid. Alana you will be sharing with Tee. She's a quiet, peaceful girl so please can you try to keep your temper with her," Mike said referring to several of the reasons why she'd been kicked out of the other care homes. "Oscar you will be sharing with Rick. I think the two of you will get on well as from what we've read of your file you two like the same things. Tracy will show you to your rooms," Mike continued. Alana stood up first and Oscar followed suit before picking up their cases and following Tracy out.

"oh and Alana," Mike added before she left. She gazed at him coldly. "you might need sunglasses in your room."
