YC is 24 years old and starting his first year of teaching. He is incredibly proud of himself, having graduated so young, as he was a young orphan that put himself through college. Now that he has the chance, he wants to start helping young lives. Be the hero he needed, and all. He meets a kid that is a complete pain in the ass, MC. MC is a 16 y/o in his freshman year due to being held back. YC wants to believe the best in him and help him, but the kid is a complete jerk. He seems to have no redeeming qualities. Of course, he has the backstory to explain it, with an absent father and an alcoholic mother, but he doesn't want help. YC is ready to throw up his hands and give up on him-let the shit go to jail, see if he'd care!-when MC's mother dies in an accident. With no preemptive, he is thrown into the system and handed off to foster parents. At his mother's funeral, YC shows up and MC confides in him how much he is dying inside, how he hated her but never wished her harm, etc. YC decides to step in and files to adopt him. MC is less than grateful, but YC is now DETERMINED to help him.
This can start with
Noted: The laws vary state to state, but it is unlikely for him to go into the foster system at 18+. However, he will be 18+ before their relationship goes hate to friends to romantic && I would be just as game playing this platonic, where they become more like brothers or father/son. I just don't imagine it would get any takers.

Both of our characters are in the foster system. They have been in and out of it a number of times, but they always seem to wind up together. It could be that they live in a really rural area, and there are only so many places to put them, but regardless, like clockwork, they seem to meet once every three-six months and stay together just about as long. The two more or less grew up together, from ages six all the way until whenever we start this. The two have been living in the same home for about two years at the point where they decide to strike up together. Whether it is filing for emancipation and getting out of the system or simply running away and starting fresh somewhere, they make the plans and intend to fulfill them when Chara A's mother makes a reappearance. She's an abusive pos, and she always is, but Chara A still really loves his mother and gets hurt bad every time she loses custody of him. Chara B begs him not to go, not to let her take him away from their plans, but Chara A can't be swayed.
We can plot from there.
