Magnet's eyes widened. "Really? Wow, I lived der when ya visited. My brothers and I left when I was 10. I've been takin' care of dem evah since." He tried remembering what his parents looked like, but couldn't. They were gone in his mind now.
He sighed, "Sorry 'bout ya Father. I don't even remembah what my parents look like anymoah."

"So how old are you?" She asked, curiously.
Bella shrugged, "Its okay. I'm not dead yet." She said with a smile. "At least they haven't gone looking for me."

"I'm seventeen. How about ya?" He asked back. Magnet started thining about his brothers. Wolf should be at the Lodging House, but he was afraid that Thunder was trying to hit on girls while Lightning ran around, but he could just ignore it.
"They? Ya mean both ya'r parents?"

"Seventeen, almost eighteen." She said with a smile. "Well, I could be eighteen already. I forgot when my birthday is.
Bella nodded, "Yes." She said stiffly. "There were some...situations, and everything went downhill from there." She said as she shifted uncomfortably.

"My birtthday is December 19. I actually had to remember all of my brothers birthdays, 'cause I was the oldest." Magnet always wished he had a little sister, but it never worked out. Instead, he got another little brother.
"Oh..." Magnet noticed she was uncomfortable. "If ya don't wanna talk 'bout it, we don't hafta."

Bella smiled, "I don't have any siblings." She said with a shrug. "I'm glad I don't too, I would've been looking out for them all the time. I don't have time for other people, and yes I know that sounds harsh. Its just really hard to come off of what I.." She stopped herself. She couldn't tell anyone about her situation, and what not.
"Yeah, I don't want to.." She said quietly.

He watched as Bella stumbled over her words, if she didn't want to tell him something, she doesn't have too, but he would always be free and love to help.
"I took care of Thunder and Lightning when they were five, their twins." He remembered how crazy they were at that age and laughed, "Den I got Wolf, who was 2 yeahs old."

Bella smiled, "How old are they now?" She asked. She got along with kids pretty well, she could understand their problems fairly well and listened to them. Especially the ones who were going through, or went through, what she went through. Those were the ones she bonded with immediately.

"Well, Thunder and Lightning are twins, and they are 13 almost 14. Wolf is 10. He's the youngest, but he's really sweet and nice when ya meet him. Thunder can get mad easily, but he's funny. And Lightning, well if he's mad, he runs it off. He's one of the most fastest people I've met." Smiling at Bella, he remembered one time when Lightning was running around the yard at 4 years old, and Magnet could hardly see him, he laughed.

"Che quanto," Bella mused in Italian. "You must really care about your brothers," She said with a smile, he talked about them a lot, which was fine. It just proved how much he loved them.
(OOC: Che quanto=how nice, or something along those lines.))

He smiled back to her. "Ya, I do. I've been taking care of them since I was 10 yeahs old, 7 yeahs..." His smiled turned into a slight frown. Magnet had no idea why his parents left him in New York, alone with his brothers, and he doesn't even know if they are dead or gone missing.

"Wow, so you've been taking care of them for seven years?" She asked, "That's seems like a long time, I know its not, it just seems like it." She pulled her legs up underneath her, and adjusted her skirt. "A lot can happen just in a few years." She said, absent mindedly.

He nodded his head, "Ya, a lot can happen." Then he just remembered, he was talking so much about himself, and he didn't care to ask about her.
"Sorry for talkin' bout myself so much, what 'bout ya? "

Bella was taken aback by his question, "Oh, turning the tables, huh?" She asked, teasingly. "We already know the basics, like I'm Bella, I'm seventeen, and I don't talk to my parents. Well, I'm an artist, that's how I get my money, and I live in an alley in Manhattan that I share with about a dozen cats." She said, smiling.

His eyes widened when she said she lived in an alley. "Really? Why don't ya try to get into one of the Lodging Houses? I'm shoah Dodger and Jack won't mind, but it might be a lil hard to get in with Spot and Prince."
