Ashton: 4

Luke: ten months

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

Luke sucked on his pacifier and looked around the room he was in with big eyes. He was on someones knee, and she was bouncing him up and down and he was starting to get a little sick.

"Someone just left him on our doorstep last night and we would have loved to keep him, but we can't afford another kid right now." The lady said and her husband nodded.

"I see. Well, we'll love to take him off your hands for you." The owner of the orphange said. She took Luke and looked him over.

Luke froze under her harsh gaze and the pacifier fell to the floor.

"Let's look up your records and give you a medical exam first, shall we?" She asked Luke.

Luke started to cry.

The woman frowned. "Well, maybe we can afford him."

"Nonsense." The woman said, putting Luke on her hip. "He'll be fine here. Have a nice day." She smiled and the couple reluctantly left.

The woman then brought Luke to a room where some kids his age were playing.

She set him down then left to get his records.

Luke sat on the floor and scrubbed his cheeks. His pacifier had been left back in the other room, so he nommed on his hand.

A little boy looked over and saw Luke sitting alone in the middle of the room.

He struggled to his feet and toddled over to Luke.

Luke looked up at the curly haired boy. "Da!" He shrieked against his hand.

Ashton plopped down beside Luke shook his head. "N-No, Ash."

"Da." Luke giggled.

Ashton huffed. "No! A-Am Ash!"

"Da da da." Luke babbled.

Ashton looked Luke over. "Wan' p-play?" Luke nodded, so Ashton stood up and walked to his toys. Luke crawled after him.

Ashton handed Luke a doll. "H-Here."

Luke took it and started to bite the head.

Ashton grabbed some Lego pieces and started clipping them together.

Luke watched him as he bit the face of the Barbie. "Da da da."

"N-NO." Ashton sighed. "Am Ash! A-Ashy! Not d-da."

Luke kicked his feet and giggled. He hit Ashton with the Barbie. "Da! Da da da!"

Ashton pouted and took the doll away. Luke gasped. He frowned. "Daa."

"Ash!"

"Da!"

"A-Ash!"

"Da!"

Ashton huffed and hit Luke with the Barbie. "D-Dummy."

Luke giggled and stuffed his hand back in his mouth. "Da."

Ashton gave him some Lego's and they made a tower.

"Aw, look at the wittle babies!" A voice teased and Ashton and Luke looked up to see a boy about eight standing over them. "What a stupid tower." He kicked it to the floor and it broke apart.

Ashton frowned. "H-hey! No N-Nash!"

"Shut up Stutter Boy." Nash sneered.

Ashton sniffed and tears gathered in his eyes. Luke frowned. He picked up the Barbie and threw it at the new boy.
