[@BlueAjah][@lovely complex][@Emma][@The Muse][@Viciousmarrow] James was reading through the story online when Kylie made her way down. She took one look at what he was making and immediately went to the fridge and pulled out Chinese and a Mountain Dew. James rolled his eyes as she popped the Sesame Chicken into the microwave and heated it up. [color=salmon] "Where's Sophia? Did she go on a jog or something? 'Cause she's not in her room or in the shower..."[/color] [color=FF3030] " Don't know, probably. Sophi's right you know, you shouldn't be drinking that at breakfast."[/color] James scoffed, but made no move to stop her. As he pulls the first batch of bacon off the stove he gets a text from Ollie, [color=a5d1f0][i]'[b]Small[/b] omelet with peppers, and tomatoes. Please and thank you.'[/i][/color] He cracks two eggs and pours them into the pan and then puts some cut up green peppers and diced tomatoes in before turning the stove on underneath the pan. [color=FF3030] "It is unusual for her to be out before all of us are up."[/color] He replied to Kylie as he put some more bacon on the stove. Just as he finished up Olivia's omelette, she walks into the kitchen and hugs him from behind, which makes him smile. [color=FF3030] "Hey, how are you?" [/color] He asks as she begins pulling out some plates. [color=FF3030] "Thanks, you're omelette is almost done. [/color] He tells her as he folds it in half. As he sets it in front of Olivia's seat, Riley walks in. "[color=seagreen]Just make me whatever.[/color]" James heard and he nodded as he cracked open three eggs for Riley and pulled aside some ham, green peppers and cheese. "[color=seagreen]I think Sophi drank a bit last night, pure assumptions, mind you, but yeah, yesterday was a pretty shitty day. Eh, if you're of age, go hard or go home, am I right?"[/color] James glanced over, now starting to get a bit concerned. "[color=seagreen] Either way, have any of you seen her? She usually tells us if she has somewhere to be.[/color]" James picked up his phone and pulled up Sophi's text thread. [color=FF3030]'Where are you Sophi? Riley says he thinks you were drinking last night? Are you okay?'[/color] He hit send and went back to Riley's omelette on the stove. [color=FF3030] "I just sent her another text. I swear if she got herself arrested last night after the we got a warning from the neighbor to behave, she's going to get an earful."[/color] James was clearly nervous now. Where was Sophi? Where was Zoey? She needs to get up or she will be late for school. Opening up the text thread for Zoey, [color=FF3030] 'Hey! Get up! What do you want in your omelette?' [/color] When Riley's Omelette finished up he pulled it off and set the plate in front of Riley's seat and pulled the law of the bacon off the stove, setting the entire plate on the table. Since Zoey wasn't responding yet, nor coming downstairs, he began making his omelette, adding ham, cheese and green peppers in with the three eggs. [hr][hr] Ashley had just woken up, the taste of pizza in her mouth from the night before. She was in her room for a change, which had her on edge. Had she made it back there herself or did someone pull her away from Frank? She grabbed her keys and rushed all the way downstairs to a steel door, and put one of the keys in the door and unlocked it. She slide inside and closed it behind her quickly before flicking on the lights. There he was, still intact and turned off. She quickly made toward a lockbox on the wall and quickly retrieved a key from inside. She slide the key into one of two slots on the desktop console and flipped through her key ring for the second key and turned both simultaneously before hitting the power button. Immediately all three screens clicked on and began loading up the modified version of Windows Ten, set to use the Windows Seven setup. She placed her right thumb on the fingerprint scanner, placed her eye near the retinal scanner, and typed in her password. When it let her in she immediately she began performing a systems check. After five minutes when everything checked out, she breathed a sigh of relief. She shut down Frank and began setting the room back how it was, key in the lock box, key back on her key ring, light off, door locked. Of course she had gotten back to her room on her own last night. The alarm wasn't tripped, and everything was as it should be. Heading back upstairs, she went to the kitchen to eat breakfast. She pulled a bowl out of the upper cabinet and grabbed a spoon and set both on the table near her laptop. From the lower cabinet she grabbed one of her favourite cereals, Raisin Bran Crunch, and retrieved the milk from the fridge. As soon as she set them down, and sat down, she opened her laptop off to the side. As she poured her cereal into the bowl, she opened up some websites to post a vacancy in her house that could be filled. [color=54FF9F][i]'Looking for up to three or four housemates, two bedrooms open, two bathrooms, a Laundry room, Dishwasher, finished basement. Medium sized backyard. Cat and dog friendly Rent: $800/month per person (willing to work with you). Must get along with each other. My personal office and my room are the only places off limits. '[/i][/color] As soon as she finished up her bowl, she rinsed it up and put it in the dishwasher. Since it was just herself for now, she only needed to run it twice a week at most. She went into the bathroom and brushed her hair and teeth and put on some light makeup. She was planning on heading into town and finding a job. It would help when everything inevitably comes crashing down around her. But that was also the reason she needed Frank well protected, that was the other reason she wanted housemates. When she deemed herself presentable, she got her shoes on and disabled the alarm and rearmed it real quick so she could leave. As she climbed into her red 2011 Ford Fusion, she set her purse on the passenger seat. As she left the driveway, she knew somehow, for better or for worse, today would be an interesting day.
