Autumn smiled at the little animal. “Cute. I’m sure you’d be great with one.”
mOth GIRL COME MORROW I WANT ANOTHER RP WITH YOU
Jilly mustured up a smile. “Moma said they need a pal, cus they’ll get lonely.”
“Then I’m sure you’d be great with two,” Autumn corrected herself with a chuckle.
Jilly put her hands up to her face, looking at Autumn curiously. “Will I be staying here?”
“Um… Well, I think that would be up to Alex because this is his house… But I would think he would be okay with that,” Autumn said softly, smiling at her.
Alex popped back into the bathroom, handing Autumn a couple cookies and the ice pack.
“What are y’all talking about?”
Autumn thanked him for the cookies and handed Jillian the ice pack. “Jillian — that’s her name,” she said, nodding toward the girl. “—was just asking if she could stay with us. I said we’d have to talk to you about it.”
Alex nodded and smiled at the girl. “Hi Jillian. You’re very welcome to stay with us. My name is Alex. It’s very nice to meet you.” He stuck out a hand slowly.
Jilly looked up at Autumn, then at Alex, and took his hand.
(I couldn’t find the page I was looking for. Oh my word. I mean, I did, but it took forever…
Also, random thought: I wonder what Kayla and J are doing…)
Autumn grinned at them before she took a bite of one of her cookies. She hummed happily, both from the cookie and the positive interaction between Jillian and Alex.

Autumn grinned at them before she took a bite of one of her cookies. She hummed happily, both from the cookie and the positive interaction between Jillian and Alex.
(Lol. What were you looking for?
Maybe we could check up on them next?)
Alex gave a soft laugh and shook Jilly’s hand. She didn’t smile or giggle, but she seemed entranced by how nice these new adults were.
(I just forgot J’s name… And Kayla’s…)
“So, Jilly… Would you maybe like to take a bath? Or a shower? You could get some of the dirt off of yourself and out of your hair,” Autumn suggested softly, finishing one of her cookies. “And then I could bring you shopping for some new clothes?”
(Lmao. J’s name is Jax, but J is just a nickname.)
Jilly brought her hands together on the cup. She could hardly shower by herself. She always needed help.
“B-but… I’ll need help.”
(No, I mean I literally forgot his name. Like, “J”. Lol. Then I remembered it, but I wanted to make sure it’s was correct.)
Autumn blinked before giving her a small smile. “How about a bath, then? You could have a nice bubble bath, and I can help you wash up, okay?”
(Lmao me tooooooooo oof)
Alex stood up from his kneeling position. “And I’ll find her something comfy to wear. Mum has some children's clothes up in the attic….”
“Oh. I suppose we might not need to go shopping, then,” Autumn said, slightly disappointed. She kinda wanted to go shopping, though… Maybe she would take Jillian shopping, anyway.
“Oh, no no, you should still go. It’ll just be a temporary fix.” He smiled, hugging Autumn. “I’ll be in the attic.”
Autumn grinned before kissing him softly. “Thanks, babe,” she said softly as she hugged him back. “I’ll be in here, helping Jilly.”
(Jillian just watches as they have their fluffy interactions, not even asking if they’re married or engaged or dating. Lol. What if she asked if they were married when both Alex and Autumn were around? Autumn would be flustered because they’re not married, but she totally wouldn’t be opposed to it.)
(Lol that’d be so cute!)
Jilly shifted on the toilet and stood up slowly on her shaky legs as Alex pulled away.
“Maybe we should take her to a hospital,” Alex suggested worriedly.
Autumn glanced over at her and nodded slowly. “Probably… But let’s get her cleaned up first. We can take her before we go shopping.”
Alex nodded. “That sounds wonderful. Should we hold off shopping till tomorrow? Since it’s kinda late?”
“That sounds good. You have a guest room, right? She could sleep in there,” Autumn suggested.
Alex nodded. “But like I said, we can’t hold off on the hospital. We need to make sure she’s not in more pain that she’s letting on.”
“Of course. As soon as she’s done with her bath, we can bring her to the hospital,” Autum agreed. She leaned over to kiss him softly again before pulling away with a chuckle. “Now, shoo! The sooner we get this down, the better.”
Alex stuck his tongue out at her. “I need her clothing sizes. I’ll wait outside the door and you can tell me.” He scooted out of the bathroom and shut the door.
Autumn chuckled and turned to Jillian. “I’ll start the bath while you get undressed, okay?”
Jilly nodded and wandered out of Autumn’s way, undressing and leaving her stretched-out, bloodied, downright dirty clothes on the ground.
Autumn ran the bath, making sure to put bubbles in it. When she was finished, she turned to Jillian, looking above her shoulders. “You ready?”
