Plans A Through D

[Casper & Jasper Emory]

Was this a good idea? Probably not, but the siblings had worked together to come up with a total of four plans for this. They were dealing with Lucy, so it was best to come with as many plans as they could for the ways she would likely respond to what Casper had to say. This was mainly for Casper's sake, Jasper was there for moral support and also to make sure his brother actually did it. The two of them had been fighting for about a week over a few things and this was one of them. This being Lucy James; who after they apologized too, they planned on leaving her alone.

Yet, things came up and so Casper and Jasper both agreed this had to be done before they fully gave up. Why they kept trying they still didn't understand but what Franck and Beth had said to them had made them want to try. Perhaps they would try again with Alex...but they were still unsure about that due to how things went last time when they tried...and failed. They did blame themselves for that fail, but it was in the past and they were trying to grow in places other than height and in their pants. "Alright, you got this." Jasper said, knocking hard on Lucy's door before quickly moving off to the side where he would be out of sight.

Casper glared at his brother before focusing on what he was here for. The siblings were wearing the same outfit; like usual, with their hair back to their natural platinum blonde for the moment. Their hair would likely end up being the color brown again later; but they felt like changing it up for a little. Casper had a bouquet of flowers even; that he 'borrowed' from the reception area but Lucy didn't need to know that and he doubted she would care about such information....or the fact that he had grabbed them for her. "It's Casper." Casper then spoke up after a moment, waiting for Lucy to come to the door. He heard movement but who knew if she would actually open the door. This was the start of Plan A!

The knock on the door had Lucy pulling out her earbuds. She wrinkled her nose slightly, remaining silent as she listened. It didn't seem as if any of her roommates were currently at home - well, either that or they didn't bother opening the door - just as she'd hoped to avoid. After a few seconds though, the brunette issued a low groan as she pushed herself up. She stepped towards the common area and looked at the outer door as if she hoped it would catch on fire.

She was glad in a pair of shorts, a loose fitted tank top and a pair of ankle socks. Her curly hair was pulled back into a high pony tail. She continued towards the door, hesitating as she heard the familiar voice. For a moment, she considered pretending that she wasn't at home, but had to remind herself just how stupid that was - and that she had absolutely no reason to hide from him.

With a sigh and a curse muttered under her breath, Lucy strode towards the door and opened it. Immediately, her blue eyes fell upon the flowers, an amused expression spreading across her previously glowering face. "You've got to be shitting me," she spoke through her parted lips.

It felt like forever until Lucy finally came and opened the door; thankfully it was her and not one of her roommates. They knew she was in her room; yes they had been still keeping tabs on her just like they had been keeping tabs on Alex and Franck. What she was wearing was enough to distract Casper from why he was here and now thinking about making a Plan E. What? He might have been seventeen years old now but just like his brother he enjoyed him the view of a beautiful human body, even if he seen it without clothing before.

As expected, she didn't seem too thrilled to see him but at least she didn't look like she hated him and more on the amused side. The twins did like to entertain but Casper could not help but to feel a little weird about actually going through with this. "Hey, Lucy. Flowers? If not, that's cool." Casper said, holding them out to her. If she didn't want them he would just toss them to the side where his brother was hanging out for mental, physical, and just general support of his older twin brother. Time to say Plan A and see if it works or not. Casper thought to himself as he pulled his gaze up from checking out Lucy, not even hiding it.

"I was wonder if you wanted to eat some lunch with me. Options are pizza or Chinese and we can eat it anywhere because I bought it already." Casper said as he glanced over to his brother. Jasper had both options over where he was hiding, ready to hand one of them over when Lucy picked or to hand over what would be Plan B.

She stared at the flowers as if they would bite her hand off, though, after a slight pause, she hesitantly reached her hands out to accept them. She took a step back then and put the flowers onto the counter by the kitchenette. She turned her head over her shoulder, brows furrowing as she pursed her lips. She'd honestly believed that he'd leave her alone after their last encounter, but it seemed as if she wasn't quite that lucky.

She returned to the doorway again as he started speaking. Her first thought was to tell him off, but come to think of it, she was hungry. With a reluctant nod, she stepped to the side and gestured for Casper to enter. "Might as well," she spoke through parted lips. "Close the door after yourself," she said as she took another step away and turned around to head for her bedroom.

She walked through the doorway and left it open for Casper. She sat down at the edge of the bed, eyes staring at the empty doorway, fully expecting him to walk through it any moment. She wondered why she even bothered. This wasn't going to end well. It never did.

Lucy was staring, nothing new there, but at least she was staring which normally meant that she was thinking. Usually in a judgmental way, but that was pretty much what the brothers assumed to be Lucy's permanent way of thinking. Casper waited, trying to figure out what Lucy was going to do by her body language but she usually always remained pretty rigid and hard to read because of it. It did become clear that she was at least not going to throw the flowers at him when she did reach out to tale them. Casper smiled a little at that, watching her walk away; enjoying the view, and wondering if she was going to toss them in the trash later or if she was actually going to keep them.

He was going to end up asking her roommates about it later, but for now it was still plan time and seeing what Lucy was up for. She didn't say no and even said might as well, which was a yes even if it was not saying the actual word yes. Casper would take it, even if there was a small amount of silent communication with his brother as he looked over to him when Lucy didn't pick which of the two she wanted more. He supposed he could bring in a bit of both, since he did bring the containers and it was not like his brother was going to go hungry with what they had still left in the room.

Jasper gave his brother the food and then half shoved him into the room, even closing the door behind him which was likely to be missed by Lucy since she headed off to her room. "Don't forget which hole it goes in." Jasper whispered as he closed the door. Casper almost tossed the food at his brother, but took a deep breath and just rolled his eyes. Okay, he chuckled a little because that was a pretty good burn joke in a way. Casper headed into Lucy room then, setting things down on the floor where he took his seat before looking up at her and gesturing for her to go first.

Jasper was in the hallways, where he would likely hang out for a while before liking texting his boyfriend. "How you been?" Casper asked as he waited for Lucy to get her food first before he would do the same.

Putting the flowers on the bed beside her, her blue eyes remained fixed on the door. She could feel her body tense slightly as she saw Casper walk through the doorway, but she didn't say anything. Not yet, anyways. Instead, she simply watched him as he stepped closer. She didn't bother throwing the flowers another glance; they didn't matter. She didn't even understand why he'd bothered.

Then, he posed a question which had Lucy sharply inhaling before pressing her lips together. "I've been okay," she said, a little hesitantly, as if she expected there to be some kind of trick behind all of this. In truth, even after all this time, she still didn't trust the boy. Then again, she didn't trust anyone. She didn't allow herself to. There would always be this cold, cynical way of which she regarded most people.

Casper was no exception.

"Why are you here?" she asked, not even bothering to ask how he'd been. It didn't matter. He'd come here for a reason, no? She'd rather not stall it and pretend there wasn't more at works here than simply Casper checking up on her. Somehow, he hardly struck her as the type.

Lucy was watching him, like a hawk. Or perhaps comparing her to a wolverine would be better since she was fierce like one, not afraid of anything, and did as she pleases. Very much like a wolverine and now Casper was tempted for that to be her nickname between him and his brother. Perhaps he would let her in on it, but for now there was good and making sure that she didn't want to fight him. He did look like his brother after all so that probably didn't help with Lucy liking to be around him when he looked like her enemy.

Jasper felt the same way, at least he still wanted to beat Lucy up and bury her brother alive but he was ignoring that as best as he could for the sake of his brother. It was only fair considering Casper helped him out all the time in his relationship so the least he could do was help his brother out in what ways he could when it came to whatever relationship his brother was aiming for with this girl. Casper said just friendship since he didn't think anyone would really want to date him or well them; Franck being the exception. "That’s good." Casper said as he set up the food, sitting on the floor Indian style and waiting for her to go first.

Granted, it was food so if she messed around then he was going to forget his manners and get himself something to eat first. Then here was a question, one the he expected but not to hear so soon when there was free food to be had at. Well, free for her but not the brothers. He gestured at the food in front of him as his answer. "To eat with you, hang out with you. Or did you forget what I said the last time we talked?" Casper asked, figuring he needed to make it a bit clearer.
