Foster Care

Just Call Me Koda

Ashton's POV

"Hello this is the Forest Orphanage. How may I help you?" A lady asks on the other end. I swallow.

"Um hi, yes I'd like to foster someone if that's okay." I ask nervously and I sit down on a stool and the other boys run into the kitchen and take seats around me, listening to every word.

"Oh that's great! Who were you thinking of?" She asks and I can almost feel her smile through the phone.

"Uh," I look at the name on the screen, "Dakoda Blue."

I hear lots of shuffling on her end and she sighs.

"Okay. Name and age sir." She asks.

"Uh Ashton Irwin and I'm 19." I say hoping she won't tell me I'm lying about being well, me.

"Okay address please." She asks and I tell her

"Okay Mr. Irwin. We will be there tomorrow afternoon. Have a good day and we will see you tomorrow." She says. We say our goodbyes and hang up.

"So......" Michael asks and I run my hand through my hair.

"So what?" I ask and they all roll there eyes and shake there heads at me.

"So is he coming?" Like asks and I nod my head and they all smile.

"So when are they coming?" Calum asks.

"Tomorrow afternoon." I say and they all nod there heads as we all head back out into the living room.

I look at my phone and see that it's 10:54 pm.

"God I'm tired. I'm heading to bed. Night fellas." I say as I make my way up the stairs to my amazing bedroom.

Shit. Where's Dakoda going to sleep? I guess he'll have to share. He can bunk with me, I'll get a sleeping bag and sleep on it on the floor. Nothing big.

I go in and take my shirt and pants off and yawn, stretching my arms over my head. I shake my hair out and shut the light out. I climb into bed wondering what Dakoda will be like.

------------------------------------------

"Ashton get your fat ass up!" I hear someone shout in my ear and I groan and I hit them.

"Ow you idiot. There going to be here in an hour!" He shouts again.

"Who is?" I mumble into my pillow. Who's coming today?

"Dakoda? The kid were going to be fostering?" He says annoyed. I mentally roll my eyes

"Right Dakoda's coming." I mumble into my pillow then I bolt up right and my eyes go wide as I look at the clock. 11:02 am. Fuck.

I push Calum off my bed and he lands on the floor with a thud as I run over to my closet and grab out random clothes.

"Get out Calum, I'm having a shower." I say and he chuckles and leaves.

I hop into the shower and do what needs to be done.

Once I'm all clean and crap, I put on my clothes and run out and throw on a pair of socks.

I run over the mirror and look at myself. Nice choice of random clothing.

My band shirt that has the Beatles on it and my black skinny jeans. I brush my curls and then put my hat on. I quickly brush my teeth and rinse out my mouth.

I go back down stairs and I glance at the clock again. 11:59. They'll be here any minute.....

*knock, knock* My eyes go wide and I'm all of a sudden super nervous.
