The Orphans (Based On The Fosters)

Season 1B Chapter 3: Rumor

"Hey," Noah said as he approached Connor. "I'm not supposed to talk to you anymore," Connor said as Noah raised an eyebrow. "There's a video of us making out on the camping trip going around, my dad saw it, he banned me from seeing you again," Connor said as he started walking away. "Oh," Noah said to himself as a girl approached him. "Hey, you're Noah right? I'm Sandy," the girl said as she put her hand out, Noah then shook it. "I'm so sorry about the video that's been going around, that's not fair," Sandy said as Noah nodded. "I could maybe help you out, I could fake being Connor's girlfriend so his dad is off his trail," Sandy said as Noah raised an eyebrow. "Why would you do that?" Noah asked as Sandy shrugged. "I just feel bad, I took that video because I thought yall were cute as hell, I showed my friend and they spread it around," Sandy said as Noah gave her a look. "I'm so sorry, please just let me help you," Sandy said as Noah walked past her, ignoring her.

Noah walked in class to Connor in a different seat. "Oh," he said to himself as he sat in his usual seat, Sandy then joined him. "Can we just talk? It was an accident," Sandy said as Noah stormed out of class. "Why are you leaving class?" Jaimee asked, passing him. "Can we talk in your office?" Noah asked as Jaimee nodded.

"What's up buddy?" Jaimee asked as Noah sat in the chair, crying. "Woah, talk to me bud," Jaimee said as he leaned in front of Noah. "Connor's dad said Connor can't be friends with me anymore," Noah said, in-between sobs. "Well why sweetheart?" Jaimee asked as Noah wiped his tears. "Because of that video, I guess he thinks I'm like coercing Connor into kissing me? He's ruining everything," Noah said as Jaimee hugged him.

"This whole case thing is going to be the death of me," Julia said, walking with Zack. "Well I'm sure everything will turn out just fine," Zack said as Julia rolled her eyes. "I'm tired of people saying that, because it won't be just fine, don't lie," Julia said as she opened her locker. "Worst case scenario you do go to juvie, that's fine, it's not gonna be too long until we get you back, there's nothing to worry about Julia," Zack said as Julia noticed Grace watching them. "Zack, stop trying to reassure me, I already know the ending to this story," Julia said as she walked away. "Hey," Grace said as she approached Zack. "Why are you talking to me?" Zack asked, turning to look at Grace. "I wanna I dunno apologize for everything with Julia, I guess I was just mad about something that didn't even exist and I miss you," Grace said as Zack looked her up and down. "Ask me later," Zack said as he turned to walk away.

"Hey," Sandy said as she approached Connor. "I don't really wanna talk to anyone right now, I'm just so sad," Connor said as Sandy nodded. "How about I be your fake girlfriend? If I do so maybe your dad will let you see Noah again so yall can continue your relationship?" Sandy asked as Connor smiled slightly. "You'd do that?" Connor asked as Sandy smiled and nodded. "I'd love that," Connor said ad Sandy grabbed his hand, walking with him.

"Hey, glad you could make it," Zayn said as he let Michael in, Jaimee's ex boyfriend. Jaimee then set the table as the three sat down. "I'm glad I can meet you," Zayn said as Michael smiled. "Jaimee did you tell Zayn about how upset you were when I didn't wanna marry you?" Michael asked as Zayn looked at Jaimee. "Well no because it's not really relevant," Jaimee said, staring at Michael. "That's why we broke up, I didn't wanna get married," Michael said as Jaimee scoffed. "No it was because you wanted an open relationship," Jaimee said as Michael nodded. "Yeah there's that," Michael said, looking at Zayn. "And because you cheated on me all the time," Jaimee said as Michael nodded. "Well there's that too, but you always wanted to be married, that was a big thing for you, so why aren't you guys married?" Michael said as Jaimee looked at Zayn. "Zayn didn't want to because of Mariana and it doesn't really matter we are basically married anyway just not officially," Jaimee said as Michael stood up. "It's super tense here, I'm just gonna go," Michael said as he walked out.

"How come you didn't tell me you wanted to get married?" Zayn asked as Jaimee stood up. "You said you didn't want to and it doesn't really matter to me anymore," Jaimee said as Zayn held his hand. "If you wanted to get married, you should've said that, this relationship isn't just about what I want, it's about what you want too," Zayn said as Jaimee stared at him. "Do you want to get married Jai?" Zayn asked as Jaimee nodded. "Then that's what we're gonna do," Zayn said, smiling.

...

"You ready?" Zayn asked as he walked into Olivia and Julia's room. "As ready as I can be for a court case," Julia said as she tied her hair into a ponytail. "Don't worry Julia, everything is going to go according to plan," Zayn said as Julia turned to look at him. "I really hope so," Julia said as she started walking out. "Hey Julia, good luck," Olivia said, smiling, Julia then smiled back.

"In this case of Julia vs. Caleb, we rule in Caleb's favor. Julie will have to spend a month in juvie, and after that, she will be required to stay in a group home for troubled teenagers until we are sure she's ready to go back to the Orphan-Williams home," the judge said as tears started running down Julia's cheeks, she then looked at Zayn. "Hey, hey it's gonna be okay," Zayn said as he hugged her. "Thank you, your honor," Caleb said as he started walking out.

Julia walked into the holding cell for woman, laying on the bottom of a bunk bed. "I can't believe this," she said to herself as another girl approached her. "Fresh meat," the girl said as Julia looked at her. "I'm Angela, who are you?" Angela asked as Julia sat up. "Julia," she replied as Angela smiled. "Stick by me if you wanna be safe here, okay?" Angela asked as Julia nodded. "I'm gonna go now, but shout if you need anything," Angela said as she walked over to her own bed. Julia then plopped back down on her own bed.
