I konw I suck at updating but here's the next chapter. I'm sorry if I spelled stuff wrong.. Hope you enjoy!
The door bell rang, Stef and Lena got up quickly and walked over to the door. Lena looked at her girlfriend, who smiled. Stef took Lenas' hand and they opened the door. Bill, Jesus and Mariana was standing on the doorstep.
"Good morning" Bill greeted with a smile.
"Hi, Bill" Lena shook Bills' hand and told him and the kids to come in.
This was the first time Lena saw the twins in person, it chocked her how tiny the where, especially Jesus. He was very thin and you could see his shoulder bones. His sister wasn't as skinny, she wasn't well fed but you didn't see her bones as much. Bill only five minutes, he had other cases to work on.
Jesus and Mariana where standing in the hallway, Mariana was desperately clinging onto her brother. Stef and Lena kenneled down infront of the kids.
"Hi, my name is Lena"
Jesus smiled at Lena " Hi"
"And as you already know, I'm Stef" Stef said winking at the kids.
Lena looked around to see if the kids had more bagade then the small backpacks in their hands, but she didn't find anything more. This broke Lenas' heart.
"We will help you with your bags and show you to your rooms" Lena said as she stood up and offerd a hand to take the twins bags. Jesus gave her his backpack, but Mariana didn't move she didn't even look up at the woman.
"Sweetie it's ok" Lena said " I'm just gonna take the bags upstairs"
Jesus looked at Lena and then at his sister "Mari, it's ok. Let her take it" he wispered in to her ear barely loud enough that Stef and Lena could hear it. The women exchanged worried looks. When Mariana herd what her brother said she looked up and handed Lena her backpack.
"Thank you" Lena smiled.
Stef showed the twins to the stairs, Jesus started walking up the stairs with Mariana like a tale after him.
"This way, sweets" Stef said and directed the twins to the first room. It was a room with blue-gray walls,a desk, a closet and a bed. The sheets on the bed where green with black dots. There was a carpet shaped like circle and a box with toys in the corner of the room.
"This is going to be your room young man" Stef smiled and patted Jesus on the shoulder.
Jesus walked into the room, it was so big. He had never had a room this nice before, with a real bed and toys. He turned and smiled wildly at the women.
"This is all mine?"
"Yeah all yours' bud" Lena said returning his smile.
"Wow! Thank you" Jesus said running over to the toys with his sister close behind.
"This is great" Mariana whispered to Jesus "It's so big"
Stef and Lena watched the kids when they herd steps behind them, it was Brandon. He was smiling and looked so exited
"Can I see them now?"
"Hey B" Stef greeted him kissing him on his cheek "We just want to get them settled in first, then you can see them as much as you want."
"But I want to meet them now.." Brandon grunted
"Why don't you go brush tour teeth and get out of your PJ's? And go see them afterwords, sonds like a plan?" Lena suggested
"Okay" Brandon nodded and took of towards his room.
"Hey, Mariana. Do you want to see your room?" Stef asked
Mariana froze and looked at her brother, she didn't want her own room she wanted to be here with her brother. She looked over at the women and shook her head no.
Stef looked at her girlfriend, confused "You don't want to see your room?" she asked the girl.
"No" Mariana answered very quietly
Stef and Lena walked further into the room and sat down on the carpet next to the children.
"Why is that sweetheart?" Lena looked at Mariana, who grabbed her brothers arm and looked down at the floor.
"Don't make me leave my brother" she said with barely a whisper
Stef and Lenas' heats broke for the girl, they just wanted to pick her up and hold her in their arms, and it hurt to know that they couldn't
"Hey, sweetie" Stef said "We would never separate you two"
"We just wanted to show you your room" Lena explained
Jesus looked at the women, they seemed very nice, he felt like he could trust them.
"I'll go with you" he said to his sister meeting her gaze "They can't hurt you if I'm there" he added quietly "You know I'll always protect you" he whispered not wanting Stef or Lena to hear him.
Mariana nodded "Ok, if you'll go with me" she gave her brother a weak smile as he stood up and took her hand.
"You can show us the room now"
"Ok, perfect" Stef smiled.
They walked across the hall into an equally big room with light green walls, a desk, a closet and a similar bed. The bed had the same covers but in a different color it was pink with yellow dots. The carpet on the floor was shaped like a square and a box of toys was located in the corner of the room. Mariana looked in the room, she loved the colors, pink and yellow fit so well together she thought.
"We just got the basic stuff for your rooms" Lena said "You can decorate them how ever you want"
"Decorate?" Mariana asked
Both Stef and Lena where surprised to hear her talk directly to them, but it was a good kind of surprise.
"Yes, however you want" Lena smiled
"With in reason" Stef added with a cheeky smile.
Mariana smiled the first genuine in a long time, the thought of decorating her own room made her really happy, she loved design, even tho she'd never really had a change to decorate och design anything before. The smile that spread across the girls' face made Stef and Lena warm inside, to see the girl happy was amazing.
But the smile quickly disappeared when Maraiana realized that she would have to sleep alone in the room at night, without her bother.
"I can't sleep here" she whispered
"What did you say honey?" Lena asked trying her hardest to hear the girl.
"I can't sleep in here" Mariana said again a little louder "Not without my brother"
"Oh, Mariana" Stef looked at the girl "You're safe her sweetie. You don't need to be afraid, no ones gonna hurt you"
"I want to be with my brother"
"It's ok, we'll put a bed in Jesus room until you get settled in and than you can sleep in here. Does thet sound good?" Lena asked
"Yeah" Mariana smiled
"That sound awsome" Jesus added and pulled his sister into a hug.
