miranda walked into starbucks dressed up like always. she kept leaving and returning and her family was anaware she was back yet again. london was fun it was full of skinny people and fashion her two most favorite things and she was starting to get the accent but she missed marco and ben. the two men that would never let her down she had been engaged for the last two months to some tall hot pale boy and now she was heart broken and she wanted nothing more then to return into her family, but she was sure that her abrupt thrust back in again would only hurt her and her family. like she was a burden and she only was around when she wanted to be and that wasn't it. she'd make it and appear later.
she ordered a vanilla frap. she felt like something cold today. she adjusted her oversized bag on her shoulder and waited for her order to be up. she needed to find a job, apply to the university, and jump into responsibilty before popping back up. she knew it would hurt marco's feelings but she wanted to prove to them all that she was different behind all the flashy clothes and what not. her lifestyle had changed her. now she must avoid the kids that would be hard. the bell rang she looked at the door making sure t wasn't anyone she knew she pushed her oversize glasses down upon her nose and adjusted her hat. incagnito. that was her for awhile.

((I decided since Miranda is trying to stay hidden for the moment from her family, that I'm gonna reply here as Megan. Okay? I hope you don't mind. lol If you do mind, just let me know.))
Megan had a lot going on. Alot. But right now, more than anything, she just needed to get away. From everyone. Especialy her family. They were the hardest people to face, really. It wasn't like she was ever such a good kid. At least her father was dead, her real father, gone for good. But--well, it didn't change the past. She was still traumatized by it, and she needed more than anything was to talk to somebody. But there was no one that she could really tell.
Wearing baggy jeans and a black hoodie, with her hair in a ponytail and wearing a hat that she'd bought from Hot Topic, Megan listened to the bell ring as she walked through the door. Her back was still terribly sore from her time with her biological father laying her on rusty nails and broken glass. And it was still cut up also. She really didn't notice anyone familiar. And maybe that was a good thing. Maybe she just needed to be left alone. Away from the rest of the world. So, not even bothering to order anything, Megan took a seat away from anyone else, in the back corner at an empty table.

"Miranda Del Rassi!" the guy called her order up she prayed that she didn't know the girl that just walked in. She didn't look familiar but still with Miranda's luck it was someone she knew. She picked up the drink and said "th-thank you" she cleared her throat in the midst of it to try and avoid the accent. She took a sip of the drink and sat down next to the window playing with her charm braclet she got back in london. Now was time to think. She shut her eyes as the sun beemed down at her. Well, at least she wasn't the only one wearing a hat inside. She thought maybe she looked insange.
Taking out a pen and a paper she began to scribble out ideas for her new life her plans and what not. She hoped that she'd be settled soon enough so she wouldn't have to hid from her family. She loved her family. She missed her family, and life right now was misery without them.
((yay its cool it was the plan hehee))

Megan was completely lost in her own thoughts. Of everything that was going on. Why was she living in fear? Her father was finally dead...got what he deserved. And lately she'd been pretty clingy to Ben. But he'd insisted that she get out of the house for awhile and take some time to herself. Even though Megan protested. And so she ended up here. She kept her head hidden from everyone. She wasn't in the mood to see anyone...anyone that she would possibly know.
But then she'd heard a familiar name being called. Miranda? No, it couldn't be...could it? She stood up slowly and walked to the front counter, watching the girl that had just sat down. It was hard to reconize her. So, trying to be brave, Megan walked over to the young woman's table. Her hands trembled inside her hoodie pockets. "Um--excuse me. Do--do I know you from somewhere?" Her voice trembled, slightly. She had her face covered a bit. So Megan didn't want to be wrong, so she decided to try this approach first.

miranda thought everything was going well she was completely in disguise from the girl so she wouldn't have problems would she? hopefully not, but then she heard the chair move and watched the shador approach her heart beat rose. miranda didn't want to look but she didn't want to be rude. she heard the voice and it clicked. "uh uh i don't think so.." she said about to look up but she looked down at the table instread using her accent hoping it disguised the fact that she was the girls sister. crap what to do what to do.
"whats the name?" she asked tipping her hat some. just don't make eye contact miranda and you'll be good. she lightly tapped a finger on the table. she was caught why was she still acting? because she still had that hope maybe? kind of? sort of? how was she going to be able to explain this to the youngster.

"Megan. My name's Megan." She spoke softly. "Are you sure I don't know you. I was sure I heard a familiar name being called." Megan insisted. She just didn't wanna say anything and not be right. Megan folded her arms across her chest.
"What's your name?" Megan asked, politely. She was so sure that she'd heard her sister's name, a girl that she hadn't seen in so very long, and probably had no idea just how screwed-up everything was now.

miranda bit her lip she didn't answer her questions for some time. "yeah, you know me.." she said with a sigh she was sure she could get megan to swear to secrecy? obviously she hadn't called for a reason. it would be a weird way of meeting up with someone but whatever. she took a drink of her drink and cleared her throat. "sit megan." she said pushing out the seat across from her and took off her hat obviously she'd know her name once her identity was thrown out there basically. she took off the glasses and set them down. she wondered why megan was so incognito as well.
"i shouldn't have put del rassi on my order should i have?'' she asked herself more then her sister out of the blue. "what with the sweatshirt its pretty warm out?" she asked acting normal for the first time sense the whole convo with her and what not. it was sort of ackward considering she didn't bear a gift for her or anything and she was back again at another failing attempt of living so far away.

Megan took a seat in the opposite chair, and when Miranda took off the hat and sunglasses, she stared at her in surprise. "Miranda? What are you doing back? And how come you didn't call?" Megan folded her arms across her chest, and watched her older sister.
Now, why was Megan herself incognito? Mainly she just wanted to be alone. She'd been through hell. Especially after that night with her real father. And her back still had some scars from laying on all that broken glass and those rusty nails. But before that, she'd been cutting her arms, which still had a few scars. But ever since the encounter with her father, she'd hadn't wanted to anymore. When asked about the sweater, Megan just shrugged. She just really wasn't sure if she wanted to tell Miranda the whole story or not. "I don't know. I guess I was just a little chilly for some reason."

miranda bit her lip when her sister asked why she hadn't called. "i just got back." she responded well basically she'd been back for about a day or two who was keeping track. "i didn't want you all to know i was home i-i cant handle london by myself and i didn't want marco and ben upset with me..." she replied telling the truth. she couldn't think of anything else to say but the truth so why not.
she watched as her sister pondered on things she wondered why it was taking her so long to answer. "megan...are you okay is everything alright?" she asked before the girl had replied to had replied to her. things just didn't seem to click with her questioning which was weird usually megan seemed okay, but it had been awhile sense miranda had been around. she didn't know what home life was like really anymore, because her home life was back in london for the last couple years and she had been here a couple months ago, but a lot could change in that time hence she wanted to get her own home so maybe sometime her brothers and sister could stay there if they ever needed to just get away. "cold....megan its really hot outside you want me to take you to the doctor?" she asked biting her lip

Hot? Okay, so maybe Megan was a little warm, but that didn't stop Megan from deciding to wear a sweatshirt. She didn't even own a sweatshirt. Megan stole it from her brother's bedroom. "No, no. I'm fine. Really." Megan was sick of doctors, of shrinks, of everything like that. She had already been in the ER and had to get a tetnus shot.
"You want the truth? I don't think I'm okay. Everything's so screwed up lately. I feel...feel screwed-up." Megan spoke, softly, so that know one around them could hear what she was saying.

miranda observed her sister and just nodded a bit as she watched her. something in her gut told her that megan might just need to get away kind of how she felt when she turned eighteen years of age but megan was so young. she felt bad for her in the sense that she knew what that felt like. "okay if youre sure." she replied giving a smug grin not so positive herself that she shouldn't take her but she wasn't going to force her into a positon she wasn't confertable with.
"you know you can tell me what wrong sweetie." she said lightly touching her arm only hearing a bit of what she said because her voice and or tone was so soft she wasn't sure what she was saying, but it was alright she was here to listen it was the least she could do. be the older sister that megan really needed right now.

Right now, Megan could really use an older sister. Someone that she could talk to. It wasn't like she could talk to Hannah. Megan felt like Hannah never really liked her very much. "Ijust-I have a lot going on. And I feel so screwed-up. I don't even want to be at home. Not with what's going on now." She hated that Marco had left with Aidan. She hadn't Ben banging some drill sargeant. And she hated having to move into this dude's house. Not to mention the things that she had done with Matt. And her new found addiction. But that last part, she would not be mentioning.

Miranda tilted her head. What was her previous home like sense she'd been here last? Her eyes sort of flashed as if with a sense of fear. She thought Marco and Ben to be good people. They were very good to her and she was first adopted first to go and it hadnt occured to her there would ever be a change with those men. Apparently she as extremely wrong. "Whats going on at home?" she asked stiffening in her chair. She felt herself gulp. She didn't want to go home? She thought about it for a second. Maybe she could manage a hotel room for awhile. Megan could stay with her. Any of them could really. She just hadn't gone looking for a steady place to live yet. She'd wait though for Megan to explain her state.

"Ben cheated. He had an affair. So Marco decided to leave with Aidan. And get this? Now we're moving in with this guy and his kids. I don't wanna go." Maybe I could tell her about what me and Matt did. But Megan instantly shook that thought from her head. No, what happened in the boat house stayed in the boat house. Besides, how would anyone react if they knew that Matt and Megan had had sex. Then she'd had sex with JJ first. She really did feel messed up. "Everything's so wrong. I don't think that I could handle going home tonight. I just feel like being away. Even if it was just for the one day. It's not like I have anyone to talk to there. I really just need someone, anyone, to talk to."

Miranda was shocked! She should call Marco! How could Ben do something like that? Why would...she didn't want to think that they would do something he would do something so stupid. When she heard about the living situation she shook her head. "No, no, your not going to just go live with some random man that Ben shacked up with." she said getting the chills when she said that. She had to find a place faster then she thought. Her brothers and sisters needed her. Ben may be the dad but so was Marco if only there were some way to get ahold of him someway somehow she had to think of something. "Then don't go home.." she said offering the tiniest smile she could give because well the situation wasn't great but she wasn't going to make her go somewhere she didn't want to be. "We'll go find a hotel room you and I and I'll go apartment hunting..." she offered her. "Im here now." she said. She was never the most responsible but she'd try. That would be good enough hopefully.
