Hanna led the kids down the street, quickly coming up to the school. She'd promised Jake that she would take Olivia and Sam to get registered for school, since it would be starting soon. They walked inside and Hanna took a look around, following the different signs that led them to the registration table. "Here we are." She said, grabbing all the papers she needed for the two of them. Leading the small group over to a table, she motioned for them to sit while she tried to fill out as much information as possible, though some of it she was going to have to take home and give to Jake to fill out.

As they made their way in the school, and up to the registration table, Olivia continued looking around, both curiously and anxiously. Sam followed Hanna to the table she led them to, but Olivia remained standing, continuing to look around. "What...what if no one likes me?" she suddenly asked in her mouse-like tone, looking back at Hanna again, squeezing her teddy bear tightly against her chest, feeling most insecure.

Hanna didn't even notice Olivia had stopped until her question was asked. She turned back to the little girl with a soft smile on her face and walked over to her, squatting down to face her. "What makes you think they won't like you?" She asked, reaching out to cup her cheek gently. "You're a nice girl. I'm sure they'll love you. If they don't, you can come tell me. I'll protect you." She promised.

Olivia looked up from the ground to Hanna's face, her eyes still showing angst in them even as Hanna spoke. She managed to pick up a small half a smile though, hugging her bear tighter. "O-kay." she simply said, letting her eyes gaze back around the school while Sam got up from his seat to join the girls. "I wanna see my classroom!" he announced to them, though mostly to Hanna. He turned to his sister then with just as big of a smile on his face. "Oh! Is me and Liv gonna have rooms next to each other?" he asked curiously, looking back up to Hanna for the answer.

Hanna gave Olivia one last smile before going back over to finish the paperwork. She was just getting finished when Sam spoke up. Hanna frowned, biting her lip. "I don't know. You might." She wasn't exactly sure how the schools worked in this town, since she hadn't gone to elementary here. Standing, she went to go give the papers to the person working there, and got the kids schedules in return. "Okay. Let's go find your classrooms, hm?"

"I hope so." Sam said hopefully, following Hanna back to the table, and rested his chin over his hands on the table watching Hanna finish the papers. Once she was finished, not only Sam, but Olivia as well jumped to their feet and followed Hanna in the direction of where their classes would be. "I wonder how many kids will be in my class." Sam wondered eagerly, skipping to keep up with Hanna and his sister. "I hope my teachers nice." Olivia piped in softly.

Hanna didn't answer either of the kids, as she was too focused on finding their classrooms. "197...198...199...ah!! Here it is! Olivia, this is your room, 200." Hanna said, looking down at the little girl. She led them into the classroom to look around. "This looks nice, doesn't it Olivia?" She asked. "Do you like it?" Once they were done they went to find Sam's room, which luckily wasn't too far away, being room 210. Hanna led them in, and one of the first things she noticed was a play area in one corner, probably for when it was raining and they couldn't go out to recess.

The kids followed Hanna into Olivia's classroom first. Olivia looked around the place, her grip on her bear loosening ever so slightly. "It does look nice." she said slowly at first, looking around once more before turning to face Hanna with a small smile. "I do like it. I hope I'll like the other kids too, though. And the teacher."
Sam's room wasn't that far from Olivia's room. Merely just couple more feet and they were there. "Ooo~" Sam's jaw dropped, and almost instantly ran over to the play area. "Whoa! Cool!" he exclaimed, getting ready to climb up the steps. "Sam..I don't think you can play in here yet." Olivia piped in, stepping forward to grab her brother's hand. "School hasn't started yet, remember?" "Aww..." Sam pouted.

"I'm sure you will." Hanna smiled, squeezing Olivia's hand gently and leading them back out of the classroom to Sam's class. "I bet you'll make a lot of new friends." Hanna smiled as Sam ran towards the play area, and nodded in agreement with Olivia. "Hey, how about we go to the park after we do a little shopping?" She suggested.

Sam gave a little pout when he was brought back over to the girls. But his eagerness was brought back up again at the mention of the park. "Oo~ Yeah!" Olivia nodded in agreement as well, not showing as much excitement as her brother, but still noticeable. "Can we go shopping now?" Olivia asked, a little more eagerly this time.
((kay, first of all....the first line of what Hanna says doesn't make since to me. "I'm you will."? and second.....since when did Jake come in? lmao))

"Sure." Hanna smiled, taking both of their hands again and leading them out of the school and down the street towards the mall. "We'll go find some clothes first." She said, since clothes were the most important thing right now. "And then we can look for some new shoes." They entered the mall, and Hanna looked around. "Let me know which stores you want to go to."

The kids nodded in agreement, and followed Hanna out of the school and towards the mall. As soon as they got inside the mall then, Olivia looked around a bit before remembering a store she and Sam normally went shopping in in their old town. "Um..well, we usually go to The Children's Place store." she told Hanna, looking around as if trying to find the place. "I like that store anyway."

"Alright then." Hanna continued walking, until they eventually came up to a directory. She let go of Olivia's hand only to run her finger down the list until she found The Children's Place. "Here it is~" She took Olivia's hand again and led them to the store, which wasn't too far away from where they were already. "Alright, let's pick out some stuff to try on."

Almost as soon as they entered the store, Sam managed to escape Hanna's grip on his hand only to run ahead of the girls and straight for his section, spotting it right away. Olivia however, did her thing and stayed by Hanna's side, leading her over to her own section. "I found my clofes!" Sam squealed, running over to the girls with his hands full with clothes. Olivia giggled at her brother's handful of choices. "You sure you got enough, Sammy?" Sam giggled as well, looking down at one of the pants that was starting to droop to the floor, and looked back up again. "Yup! I wanna try these on!" "Wait, I need to find me outfits too." Olivia whined, continuing her search before she found a pile of clothes ready to try on as well. "Um..where's the dressing room?" she asked Hanna, looking around with her teddy in her arms and clothes piled up on top of it.

Hanna laughed as Sam ran off to find his own clothes, and walked with Olivia to find hers. She helped pick through some clothes, and laughed again when Sam returned not to long after with a handful of clothes. After Olivia got hers, she led them over to the dressing rooms. "Here you go." She said. "Try them on and then let me see how they look~" She smiled.
