"Why can't I come with you mummy?" whined LJ as Mason and Faith blocked the doorway.
Faith sighed and bent down so she was eye level with LJ.
"Sorry you can't sweetie. I don't know why. Just behave while we're gone ok and remember what we said?"
LJ nodded, "never open the door to strangers, never answer the phone, never call 999 unless its an emergency and by emergency not when I need a toilet. And last dad said never to watch the Adult Channel again." LJ smiled.
"That's good-wait adult channel...again?!"
LJ nodded.
Once Faith and Mason were out of the door and walking down the hallway Faith wacked Mason across the back of the head.
"Adult Channel seriously I thought I told you to put a lock on that?!" She hissed.
"What I forgot ok?! What at least you weren't the one that had to explain why two people were naked and having sex!"
(Authors Note: I don't watch the adult channel or whatever just clearing that up.) said Mason still massaging the back of his head where Faith whacked him.
Faith sighed. Mason looked at her with concern, "Hey if it's about that Channel i'll put the lock on it as soon as we get back."
Faith shook her head, "No I'm just wondering about the meeting. I just have a bad feeling about it."
"Me too." replied Mason shoving his hands in his pockets.
There was stiff silence between the two while they were walking to the hall. Mason took Faith by the hand and kissed it gently. "Everything will be alright." He whispered into her ear.
At the meeting everyone was gathered in the massive hall all students seated with their pair on a chair. The hall was buzzing noisily, the common question was "What's the meeting about?"
"Hi guys!" smiled Hannah as she waved frantically before sitting down by Mason and Faith.
"Hey." Mason and Faith smiled in unison.
Mrs Henderson stepped onto the stage and walked to the microphone. She tapped it causing it to make an eerie sound.
"May I have your attention please?" she asked gently. The students continued talking, ignoring Mrs Henderson.
"Uh...please be quiet students." she said about louder and firmer. Still no effect.
She sighed once more and shouted into the microphone, "PLEASE BE QUIET AND LOOK THIS WAY!"
The students looked at her with wide eyes. Everyone was quiet, some clearing their ears from the deafening sound.
Mrs Henderson let out a sigh of relief, "Well students its been two months of parenting now and we have checked up on your grades and they are remarkably high. We are so proud of this year. You all have three more days before having to return your robots and pack your things away. Now may the special group that looked after real children please admit to my office after the meeting. That is all thank you." There was a loud cheer and applause coming from the auditorium. Finally I can get my full rest again!" were most chants.
However Faith just sat there her mouth hanging low. She blinked and pinched herself.
"Please say this is a dream...please." she panicked to herself.
It was too hard for her to take in. During her time with LJ it was as if she were family to her. So her being taken away from her just like that is. Heartbreaking.
"Faith sweet. It's time to go." whispered Mason soothingly making Faith to calm down slightly.
When all the students were packed into Mrs Henderson's office she clapped her hands together.
"Well students I have just checked your grades and you have all got A*!"
The students around applauded and cheered. Mrs Henderson then cleared her throat, "Meaning the project is now over so the children will be brought back to the Home. We bring them to the Main Hall at 6pm. Other information will be mailed in your mailbox."
After the students were dismissed and Mason and Faith were outside their door Faith sighed heavily and rested onto a wall. Mason looked at her with concern, "What's wrong?"
Faith looked at Mason, "I think I've grown attached to LJ abit too much. How will I tell her?"
Mason thought deeply before replying with hesitation, "Uhh...I'll tell her?"
Faith looked at him and smiled from ear-to-ear before hugging him close. Mason pulled apart and made their lips connect.
"Thank You." Whispered Faith.
~~~~Later that Night because I'm lazy to write what happened earlier :P ~~~~
(MASON P.O.V)
Me and LJ were huddled up on the couch watching TV. I looked at LJ propped onto my lap watching at the screen intently while eating strawberries. She looked so happy that if I tell her it would break her heart.
Why did I agree to this?! I heavily sighed making LJ turn around in confusion.
"Daddy what's wrong?" LJ asked.
I shook my head.
"No, you keep sighing and I can't watch TV. Why are you sad?" she asked frowning.
'Tell her Mason get it done with.'
'No Mason you'll break her heart.'
"No it's just that we've got this BIG test coming up and I'm stressed." I lied.
She smiled, "Dad your clever you will surely pass it."
I chuckled, "Thank You LJ."
We carried on watching TV when Faith walked through the door carrying shopping bags. She looked at me and nodded her head towards LJ. I sighed and shook a no while Faith sadly nodded.
