"Am I okay? Maika you just fell on your ass" the OB/GYN responded as she rushed towards the other, extending her hand on order to help her get off of the floor happy that if she had to find anyone on her daily jog it was Maika. "Luckily for you I think I was the only one who saw what happened and baby I've seen way worse" Rebecca tried to soothe the other with a gentle smile, trained eye scanning for any scratch or indication that she was on any pain. "Seriously kid, are you okay? That could've been a lot worse."

idea: maika is stupid and riding a scooter. she could've hit your muse, nothing serious, but she fell. feel free to mock or help her.

" beep beep! " a silly sound, mimicking the one of a honk, escaped maika half-way down the street. she had no helmet on, as it would ruin her shaggy hairstyle, and the sunglasses hardly let the dancer see muse. a dreadful combination for a friday afternoon. " oh fuck " the german muttered, attempting to break her speed as she approached them, maika tossed the scooter to the side and feel against the pavement. " are you okay? " she yelled, ignoring her own fall entirely, only to give into laughter. " well, that was embarrassing. "

Alexander cracked up a smile at Ryder's retort, eyeing his own glass with a hint of guilt stabbing on the pit of his stomach, it's source unknown. "Yeah, it was Aristotle who said that no? Solid advice" he responded humorously, smirking. His blue eyes traveled from his own bottle of beer to the poor soul barely able to stand and truly a hazard to anyone near him and his made-up magic wand, to his friend as he raised a brow, clinking his bottle to the other's glass. "My tolerance has decreased in the past couple of years so if you see me waving anything near people's eyes you have full permission to punch me. Just no marks, I can't have the kids making questions and having to tell them their legal guardian is too old to hold his liquor" and with that, he gave a small sip, knowing he'd be nursing his drink for the rest of the night.

"Too much of anything is bad, but too much good whiskey is barely enough. I think that's how the saying goes." He remarked with a half smirk - almost subtle like, while raising the shot glass in his hand obviously of Whiskey and raised it in cheers. "Here's to holding our own and not ending up like that guy." Ryder added as his hues scanned the room and landed on a patron who clearly had one too many. The guy in question was using the pool stick as what Ryder assumed was a wand and pretending to be Harry Potter.

Rebecca was a planner. She enjoyed being in control of what happened in her life so whenever she had time, she mapped out whatever she could. From clothes to meals to her schedule and of course, groceries. From store to budget to the actual list and even how they would make the purchase— a lot of thought usually went to her grocery shopping in the sake of time efficiency and comfort. Still, something had failed her earlier that month and now Nova, the family cat, had no food and they were out of cereal. Alas the OB/GYN found herself leaving work a tad earlier than normal since her last appointment of the day had cancelled and going to the grocery store by herself with no plan (a rarity) and an empty stomach (a recipe for disaster, really).

The moment she crossed the door however, her attention was stolen from the aisles to the person by her side and the query imposed as she put her car keys and phone on her handbag. She thought her response through for a few seconds before walking towards the other, eyes on the bulletin-board. "I can think of some names, yes. That's how I ended up with sharing a life with a black cat and a partner" she mused with a hint of a playful tone and an adoring smile on her face to indicate that it was a jest. She gave a quick glance to the announcements, humming lightly. "So, which one is yours? The garage sale or the maths tutor?"

bia wasn’t exactly the bulletin-board type, but today had called for sticky notes and staples ; and, apparently, a dose of humility.

she stood with one boot braced on the wooden bench outside the general store, a stack of printed flyers in hand and a small tin of pushpins tucked under one arm. “free to a good home.” the top one read in neat, curly handwriting above a grainy photo of a barn kitten perched inside a riding boot. her face had been smudged with paw prints this morning. the kitten’s, not bia’s ; though that could be argued.

“i’m not keeping another one.” she muttered aloud, more to the dog at her heel than any passing stranger. tess, grizzled and protective as ever, only blinked up at her like she’d heard that one before.

there were a few other flyers already up ; lost keys, band night at fool’s gold, someone’s garage sale - and bia wedged hers in between them with a quick jab of the pin. then, in a rare moment of indecision, she just . . lingered.

tess settled beside her with a sigh. the late afternoon sun was soft and dusty, and the quiet hum of small-town life drifted by ; footsteps, murmured conversations, the creak of the store’s door swinging open behind her.

bia didn’t look up right away, but her voice carried with practiced ease.

“you ever end up keeping something you were just supposed to help for a day or two?” the question was casual ; almost rhetorical.

rebecca was born during a rainstorm in november in new york-presbyterian hospital, the very same hospital her father was making his residency in. she lead a very normal life for a child who has two med students as her parents; they were barely present throughout her formative years, forcing her to spend most of her time with her grandparents, aunts and uncles who were graceful enough to accommodate her on their itinerary and lives, but whenever her parents were around if even for a short amount of time, they always tried to make the most out of their time together. they were strict with the rules they had set for her firstborn, but always made her feel loved.

things started getting complicated by the time rebecca reached teenage-hood. her father, a now renowned general surgeon who had found a job in the most prestigious hospital in new york started to behave oddly hinting on a unlawful affair and making alexa lose her mind until the day everything blew up: anthony came home one night to pack his stuff and tell his then wife he was leaving, that he had been cheating on her with a colleague and she was pregnant with his baby. Alexa was left brokenhearted, completely disassociating herself from her family and burying herself in work as an oncologist at the brooklyn cancer center. rebecca, being a young teenage girl with no supervision or care, began rebelling. what once was the perfect daughter in the eyes of her parents became a nightmare that failed classes, skipped school and hung out with the wrong type of crowd, a scream for help that caused the relationship with her parents to break slightly and beyond repair with every fight they had.

at age 15 rebecca started to date her very first (and only) boyfriend. he was charming, quick-witted and payed attention to her in ways her parents didn't, so she fell. hard. the couple even began planning a future together where they could move back together once they were done with their high school years, dreams of freedom away from their homes to start a life of their own. all their dreams came crashing down the day rebecca found out she was 5 months pregnant after fainting in pe. she told her parents, hoping they would support her and guide her through the process, that they could find an answer as to what to do next but was only met with threats and hurtful words that claimed she was on her own from that moment on. she then went to share the news her then boyfriend and found him on someone else's arms, breaking her heart into a million pieces.

rebecca then made a decision to need no one but herself and the kid she was carrying for years to come. she used every penny she had and moved to pennsylvania, worked tirelessly for the last four months of her pregnancy to get her ged and find a small apartment, a place to make a home for her and the child on the way. and then, the baby came. she had promised herself she'd be a better parent than her own, that she would care for her child more than she cared for herself and she did tried her best. for three months, rebecca didn't sleep; going from one work to the other to caring for her child to bring them the bare necessities— until everything stopped working. it became painfully obvious to her that if she kept the child as her own, there was a chance her child wouldn't survive. keeping her promise to always see for the child before her own selfishness, she did what she thought was best for them; gave them up for adoption praying they would find a family that could give them what she couldn't.

the decision weighted on her for months, letting herself get absorbed in the darkest pits of her inner hell until a light appeared in her way in the form of a good friend who encouraged her to leave her bed and do something for herself. ultimately decided to move to coyote valley after seeing an add for the town where she took every job she could find for a month, picking herself up to ultimately split her life between coyote valley and sacramento after being accepted to sacramento state where she remained the next four years of her life, doing her courses for pre med and uc davis school of medicine for her remaining time of medical school.

at 34 and with her credentials as an ob/gyn she moved back to coyote valley and began working at sierra nevada memorial hospital where she spent 4 years building up a good enough reputation to open her private practice at age 39, her business soaring and flourishing.

for years, she dedicated her entire existence to her job, blocking any type of personal life aside from friends. which was exactly why falling for her parter was such a surprise for everyone, especially rebecca herself. after her first and only relationship she had a series of non-committal relationships and some more serious what-ifs but it was until she let herself truly fall for someone and let herself adventure on a journey of self-reflecting that came with letting someone in that she understood why nothing had ever felt like it made sense and why the once that did, were terrifying. rebecca came out as a lesbian in her late thirties/early fourties and never looked back.

when her mother contacted her via social media for the first time in over thirty-two years, rebecca didn't expect it to go well, nor to create a new relationship with her now that they were both mature adults. it took them months to heal the wounds of the past so it really was a surprise when alexa mentioned the baby rebecca had had and given up more than thirty years ago, leaving her once again with a gut-wrenching feeling she had tried to ignore since the last time she had searched for them many moons ago, to no avail. knowing she had nothing to lose, she tried one last time and ultimately found out that child she had grief over the years was, in a mysterious turn of events that one can only describe as serendipitous, in coyote valley.

tw: drug use, abuse, death mention

he was born and raised in hermosa beach in a broken home filled with anger, pain and addiction. the eldest of two, he vowed the moment his younger sibling was born to do everything in his will to protect his sibling and his mother from the darkness of the world and most importantly, his father. when robert warren walked out of their lives when alex was 14 after years of torment and the family moved to coyote valley, alycia's hometown, alexander truly believed life was finally letting them become the family he so desperately wanted.

he spent the upcoming years working tirelessly to get through high school and taking care of his family as best as he could until the time to think about university arrived. with the encouragement of his family (and promises to work even harder to one day bring them along with him) alexander moved to new york city upon graduation after being accepted into nyu in their criminal justice department with a scholarship. alexander worked tirelessly for months, working two to three jobs to make arrangements for his family to move to new york with him only to lose his mother a year and ten months after he moved to new york due to an overdose. filled with grief and a sense of responsibility he took care of his younger sibling.

upon graduation from university alexander moved to virginia as he started the quantico program to become a federal agent. for two years he lived between virgina, ny and california until he was ultimately enlisted in the fbi and assigned permanently to new york. for three years he dedicated himself entirely to a job he grew to abhor and resent until the day he suffered an accident on the job that nearly took his life. nearly dying changed his perspective on life and although he knew he had a promising career as a federal agent, alexander quit.

taking his time as he tried to figure out his next step alexander took up on a lost love of his: creative writing. he began writing about cases he had worked on, cases he'd heard of and ultimately wrote a book based off a fictional criminal case he had made up. a close friend of his read the book and encouraged him to publish it and after months and months of working odd jobs in new york to get by and editing in his spare time, he self published his first novel at age 25 and seven months. it became a moderate success (a rare occurrence for a self-publishing book) and ended up creating a publishing company with the friend who encouraged him to publish his book. his second novel came a little less than a year later, the first of the publishing company and proved a slightly bigger success than the first one.

with a new life purpose alexander decided to move back to coyote valley at age 26, seeking to spend time with his family and to settle down, finding inspiration upon his arrival to write at the very least three new books in a span of a year, choosing to map them out for a twice a year release while using the remaining time to write and enjoy at last having some time for himself after years of feeling like he was running out of time.

then, she came. athalia kotzur sideris came back to his life to turn it upside down. two ships in a passing in the night on their teen years, the two found a way to find eachother now as mature young adults and began a love story for the ages. alexander felt like he had everything he had ever wanted in life and when athalia agreed on marrying him when he proposed, he knew that was the happiest day of his existence. everything came crumbling down however (as if often does) when, after two years of engagement, the couple broke off their engagement and the relationship altogether when they discovered the life they had figure out for themselves simply didn't match and the two (four, with their two dogs pollux and castor and were too separated from eachother) parted ways.

he used his newlyfound heartache to write more and with 7 published novels under his belt, one on the way more personal than the rest and a flourishing publishing company, alexander decided it was time to search for that missing piece in the puzzle he had yearned for since he was a child: a family. he took every course and class he could find for months on end and ultimately registered to become a foster parent. jack and mia arrived to alexander's life to put it upside down. it wasn't easy at the beginning; learning new rules that came with becoming a parent of two children with a sensitive background such as his made it hard to connect with them at first but with enough patience and love, the four of them became the family all of them had needed all their lives. now, with a year passed since they first found eachtoehr, alexander is seeking to formally adopt them as his own.
