Kaliska got up and walked out of the bedroom. She grabbed their nicest dishes and set the table. "When did she say she was coming?" She asked Brenk. Barrett opened his eyes to see the centaurs watching them. He felt slightly uncomfortable. Jasmine felt tears in her eyes and wrapped her arms around Red. "I bet you miss her...... I miss my mama too."
Braxton followed, though his eyes showed that he was exteremly embarrassed. "Lana, really, it's nothing.... I've had injuries a lot worse." He told her. Jesslyn looked at the ground.... Then nodded. "Okay.." She said and walked towards Ferris. "Um.... Excuse me.." She said, looking uncomfortable.
"I just told her to come now. Should be about 10-15 minutes she said." He cracked the eggs.

The mare walked over. Would you two like to pair dance with us?" She asked.

He rubbed his little face into her. "Can we go wook for mamma togedder Jammy? Me go wit you?" (so cute and I wanna cry )
"Yes dear." It was apparent she wasn't going to listen to him. "And no sense in not letting me fix your scratch. Besides if I had not asked or your help your head would be fine." She had him sit at the huge table. "I will be right back.. stay."

Ferris was uncomfortable now but remained polite. "Yes miss?" He looked back at her.
Thrain still found this entertaining and contained a dashing smirk. A few mares in the shop were gawking at him. (XP)
"Oh... good." Kaliska beamed with a bright smile. "I can't wait to see her response." she chuckled, then went over and sliced some apples.

Barrett smiled, trying to hide his nervousness. "What do you say Myrna?" he asked.

(Oh my gosh.. me too. :'()
Jasmine hugged him tighter. "Someday Red... maybe someday." she told him, and kissed his forehead.
Braxton sighed. He really did hate it when others took care of him. But... he kind of... liked.. Lana, sooo..... I guess it was okay.....
(xD)

"You left your basket and uh... well first I'd like to say I'm sorry... I saw....uh, I just... I'm sorry. Second, me and my......" her eyes took on a distant look as she tried to figure out what to call Thrain.
Friend? Oh no no no..... ummm.... Brother? Ew! No! Why would you even think that Jesslyn?! Ok, ok, ok, ok...... Guardian? Oh yeah.. I guess that'll work. "My guardian"-- she said that uncertainly-- "Would like to um... help you with carrying your.. things." she said and gave an uncomfortable smile/chuckle. "We saw on your list that you're taking that basket to the foster home." she fooled around with her bangs- putting them behind her ear, twirling them with her finger. "That's kind of far away.. you know?" she finished, then blushed beet red. This made her hair and complexion match so her eyes stood out. Though she kept looking between the floor and Ferris so they were a little difficult to catch.
(Whoo! That was a little difficult to type. xP It was fun though...
)
"She will be exstatic." He laughed scrambling the eggs and adding butter and salt.

Myrna shook her head yes excitedly. "Go easy though he's never done it before."
The female laughed "I won't buck him off. I haven't met a Terrellian yet that could not stay on though." She smiled.
Myrna blushed since she fell off once, but she blamed Brenk for yanking on her.

"I wike you Jammy." Red sadly chewed on a finger
Lana saw Red with Jasmine ans sighed. "Good his is in here with you." She opened the cabinet again and pulled out some would cleaning items and the stitcher. "Can you check the other infants in the next room? I have a 10 year old in there with them right now. There are playpens in the living room you can put them in." She mentioned.
The little filly came back and sat next to Braxton. "You have a boo boo... you okay?" She looked very concerned. Foals were quite bold on Centauria.
(culture shock for Braxton HE HE)
_______________
(LOL)
Ferris smiled and let out a slight laugh. "I don't bite... Sure you can help, it means I won't drop anything..." He bent his head down to meet her gaze more. "I am not my father... I think I know what is going on... I am sorry, on one should have to go through that."
Thrain held the bag of bread and waited.
"I bet." Kaliska put the slices in a bowl and smiled. She walked up behind Brenk and hugged him.

Barrett elbowed her gently. "C'mon! It'll be fun." he smiled.
_________________________
Jasmine smiled at Lana. "Can Red come with me?" she asked and smiled at the little colt.
(BA BAM!
)
Braxton looked up sharply. "Oh, yeah.. I'm fine." he replied, a smile playing on his lips.

Jesslyn jerked her eyes to meet his, and her face paled slightly. "If you're ready, we can go.." she said, her voice wavering.
"Hey you hot mamma... hugry?" He chuckled soflty.
_______________________
SHe soved the rest of her pastry in her mouth. "Let's do it."
The stallion chuckled and gave her his arm. Myrna took it and he whipped her up onto his back. The mare wated for Barrett to hop on.
___________________________
Lana sighed. "Yes he can stay with you.. but you have to sign a document first. It will be good for him to have the attention he needs." She smiled a tear forming in her eye as she turned to go fix Braxton.
(Who could resist that I would take him home!)
"Good... booboos are not nice." She sat and waited.
Lana came out with the supplies. "Lisa... Why aren't you out in the corral for story time?"
"You tell them better." She sighed. "You fixing him?"
Lana started gleaning Braxton's hair first. Her fingers were very gentle. "Yes.. I am fixing him."
"You going to marry him?"
Lana's eyes grew wide then she laughed. "Lisa go back to story time now sweetie."
___________________________
"Yes.. I have to get the rest of the items." He grabbed the empty bags ad then went to the store with the dairy, vegetables, and fruits. He also had to get diapers and laundry detergent. He had a small bag for Jasmine's list. Thrain put one well stuffed saddle bag over his back. He kept a close watch on Jesslyn.
"Very hungry." she chuckled, and laid her head on his back.

Barrett hopped on, trying not to look clumsy. "Okay.. well... here we go." he muttered.
_______________________
Jasmine grinned. She just hoped her dad would say yes. Grabbing Red's hand she led him down the hall to the next room.
Braxton reddened and chuckled slightly. "These foals are cute." he winced, but didn't pull away.
________________________
Jesslyn walked slowly, not wanting to walk next to Thrain, but didn't want to walk ahead. She eventually just walked by Thrain's flank.
He rubbed her hands with one of his. "I love you."
*CHIME* Melanie rang the bell.
____________________________
The walked next to each other as go in line so the centuar couples took positions on the floor. "Barret just let go if they pull away and lock arms when they do." Myra mentioned.
The Centaurians kissed each other then waited for the music to start.

Red toddles along with her. His red curls bouncing as he walked.
"They are... all very sweet too. But.. thy don't get the attention that they need. Its hard to with this many. But many will go to temporary homes. Some will stay with me until they are of age. I just hope some of those mothers are rescued. One had twin fillies, the stallion will know she was nursing and will probably come back for them if he finds they are girls. Little red... his father was killed fighting to save his wife, and failed. I have 5 from abductions years back, mothers were never recovered. It's very sad to do that to families. I pray that some day they will find their hearts and try to do the right thing. "She put some pain medicine on it. "I have to clean this good you had that crud in your hair."
______________
Ferris looked at Thrain. "If he comes...."
"We are hoping he won't. If he is sighted in the area the home will be warned and they can get out of there." Thrain informed.
Ferris nodded, up the way the foals could be heard playing.
Kaliska jumped away and ran to the bedroom. "I need to brush my hair! Can you answer the door?" she asked Brenk and quickly ran a brush through her bed mangled hair.
___________________________
Barrett chuckled nervously. "Okaay...." he said.
_____________________________
Jasmine opened the door and peered inside. "Hello?"
"That was disgusting.." Braxton grunted, his short thick fur reeked of it.
____________________________
Jesslyn felt faint at Ferris' comment. She paled further. "Th-Thrain? Why would he w-want to come back?" she asked. She knew the answer, and she didn't even really want want to hear it again.
"okay...."
