The Fosters (On Hiatus)

Chapter 2 (Zayn)

"If anyone needs to pee, go now because I'm not stopping from here to your new placement," the lady said.

"Where's Mr Winchester?" Niall asks me quietly.

"Yeah, where is Mr. Winchester?" Michael looks over to me.

"I don't know but we're stuck with this bitch for 7 hours."

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-

"I need to pee."

"Hold it."

Michael shifted in his seat. I reached into my bag and chugged the water bottle I had. "Mike here."

I held it still so he doesn't pee on me.

"Little baby couldn't hold it for 7 hours," we all heard from the lady driving when Michael finished.

Ashton looked at me and took the water bottle. Without hesitation, he dumped it on her head. She screamed and pulled over.

"So much for 'no pulling over'," Ashton said.

"You little shit! I hope you get put back in!"

Niall looks at Ashton. "You're gonna get kicked out if you do that," he said, scared.

"I don't need another placement if all that's going to happen is us getting abused or something else."

"Ashton we need this," I point out.

~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-

We show up and the lady knocks on the door. Nerves kick in and you can tell from everyone's faces.

A tall man with brown hair and brown eyes open the door. "Hi Mackenzie."

"These are your new foster kids," the lady looked at us.

A shorter man with a little longer hair and blue eyes comes up. "Hi- what smells like urine?"

I shoot a look to a nervous Ashton. "It was an accident."

"No it wasn't. The little shit poured piss all over me!" The so called Mackenzie yells.

I see the taller man hold back a smile while the other bursts laughing.

"I hope you have fun with the little shits," she spats and walked away.

"I'm Louis, this is Liam," the shorter man tells us.

"Hi. It's nice to meet you four." We all stay silent. "You guys hungry? We have some pizza."

We all nod and Ashton shakes his head.

"You sure bud?" the Louis guy asks. Ashton nods.

Liam looks at Ashton. "We heard you were sensitive to gluten so we have a gluten-free pizza in there for you."

While the rest of us go to eat pizza, Louis and Ashton go out back. I watch carefully to make sure nothing bad will happen. Then Ashton smiles a little and nods.

"Louis isn't going to hurt him," a voice says behind me and I jump. "Oh sorry," Liam says. "Didn't mean to startle you there."

I look at him and scoot back a little. He sits next to me.

"You know, you don't have to right away, but you can trust us ok? We're not here to harm any of you in any way." I nod and look at the other two. Liam looks over to them as well. "We will make sure to help you. How does that sound?"

I look at him and he gives me a thumbs up. "Good?" He gives a thumbs down, "Bad? Confusing?" he moves his thumb sideways. I give a thumbs up and he smiles. "I know it may take time. That's perfectly fine."

I nod. Looking outside again, I see Louis and Ash walking in. It's dark and I'm cold.

When they are in, I see Niall get up quietly and walk over to Ashton, hugging him tightly. Ash hugs back. Both adults look confused and I feel a pair of arms around me. Noticing it's Michael, I hug back. Ash looks at me and doesn't let go of Niall. I look down to Mikey and he is slowly closing his eyes.

Both adults still look confused, so I quietly say, "They're tired."

"Oh. Well, let's get you boys to bed then. I bet you've had a long day."

"It's 11:00 already?" Louis asks, looking at the clock. "I have class tomorrow."

Liam looked at him. "I'll show them the rooms. You go to bed," he kissed his cheek and Louis thanked him.

"I might not see you tomorrow but have a great day with Liam. Goodnight boys."

Liam smiles at him. "Let's see your rooms. Sound good?"

We all nod.

"We only have three rooms available right now. Is it ok if two of you bunk for the night so we can clean the room out tomorrow?" We nod. "Alright. This is one room, there's one across the hallway next to the bathroom, and there is one on the other side of the bathroom. The one right here is kinda filled right now."

"Thank you," Michael says sleepily.

Liam smiles. "For what bud?"

"Food and rooms." Michael clings to me a little more.

He looks confused but nods. "You're most certainly welcome. It's really no problem." Smiling at us once more, he asks, "Do any of you need anything before I head to bed?"

I bump Mike a little and whisper, "You're med."

Giving Ashton a knowing look, I motion to his pocket. He glares.

"Can Ashton and I have cups of water?" Michael asks.

"Of course." He went down and came back with two cups of water. "Make sure to go potty before you head to bed ok?" He blushes and nods. Before walking into what I assume is his room, he asks, "Oh and are you good on meds?"

Ashton and Michael both nod. "Got 2 months each," Mike says.

"Ok. If any of you need me or Louis, this is our room ok?" We nod. "Night boys. Sleep good."
