Will I ever find a home?

reunions, surprises and time doing what we love.

 Then suddenly I was pulled from my thoughts as I felt a soft hand on my shoulder, and a soft voice asking. " Hope you are OK". I returned to reality and replied with a simple. "yea im fine". "Hope I thought that we promised no secrets". Logan told me worriedly and confused. " fine i had flashbacks of what happened". I told him sadly. "oh hope". Logan told me comfortingly. Suddenly we were distracted by the sound of a car pulling up. " the girls are home". Logan told me, smiling both happily and sadly at the same time. "come on then". We walked to the stairs and Logan helped me into the stair lift before it went down Logan following me. Logan helped me stand up and we walked around the corner to see Erica and Christina coming out of a hug with Mike. " Erica, Christina". I cried as my sisters ran to me. I pulled them into a tight hug not caring about the agonizing pain in my chest. " Hope is that you". Three little voices called from the door. I looked over Erica's shoulder to see , Lacy Hetty and Tee standing a few feet away. "Lacy, Hetty, Tee" I called as I released Erica and Christina and they hugged Logan. The three four year old girls ran to my open arms and I hugged them all tightly trying not to cry happy tears. " is that everything kiddo, cause i can help with anything that you need". Mike said to someone but I didn't know who. " That's everything thank you though Mr Jones". The other person said and I immediately knew who it was. " Johnny" I cried as I released the girls from a hug and quickly liped to his waiting arms with a new found strength. " Hope". Was all he said as he tried not to cry, as he hugged my back and spun me around. " Hope, Johnny, can I see you both in the office please?" Carmen called from inside the office. " Coming Carmen" I replied as I led Johnny to the office. We walked in and Carmen sat us both down. "Now Johnny, I suppose you are wondering why you were brought here and not to an independent unit. Am I correct?". Carmen said looking into Johnny's eyes so deep that you would think she was looking straight through his sole. " yes i was wondering that, is there a reason why that happened"? Johnny asked confused and worried. " Well Hope came to me a few weeks back saying that she wanted to find her brother, and well we found him, Johnny what was your name before you were adopted"? Carmen asked him sweetly. "Hunter, my birth name was Noah Johnny Hunter". Johnny said, confused. " omg, my name is Hope Hunter, so my substitutions were correct, you are my bubbles". I told him as I tried not to cry. " yea i am firefly, and i am never leaving again". He promised me as he picked my up and cradled me to his chest. " Carmen has there been any leads on Logan's sister"? I asked our head carer, hopeful for my friend and happy for myself. " i have one lead but i still need to follow it up". Carmen told me reassuringly. " now off you two go, because you need to unpack johnny".Carmen told us sweetly. " ok thank you Carmen". We both said as we stood up and left hand in hand. Just as Johnny was closing the office door we heard a small high pitched voice. "Erica Christina is that you"? Teagan asked as she stepped down the stairs carefully. Teegan, yea its us". Erica said softly. Teeegan ran down the stairs carefully and straight into Erica's arms. " I've missed you so much". Erica whispered into Teagans ear. " I've missed you too, both of you". Teagan said, hugging Christina. "Teagan sweety, we have some people for you to meet". Christina said, placing teegan down but still holding her hand. " Teegan this is Hettey, Tee, and Lacy and they will be sharing a room with us until you all get used to each other and if you all get along you might get a room just you four". Mike said softly, kneeling down to their level. "OK". the four girls said in ushion. " why don't we go get you all unpacked". Mike suggested picking up some of these things. "OK". we all replied grabbing bags and boxes before heading up stairs.

Once we got upstairs we started unpacking and sorting out everything like, putting all their old clothes into boxes to go to the attic, and unpacking the little ones toys. Then when we were nearly finished with the girls, me, Johnny and Logan headed into their room. "So how long have you been here Logan?". Johnny asked while packing away his clothes. " um i think me and Hope were four when we both arrived ''. Logan said, placing some books on the book shelf, obviously not wanting to talk about it. '' oh yea i remember when that old hag dropped us off and she complained so much about how she had to deal with two kids that needed so much attention". I told them remembering me and Logan's drive here and how we met the girls. We finished putting away Johnny's things and we were about to ask the girls if they wanted to go outside when there was a knock at the door. " i wonder who that is''. Logan asked us confusedly, going to look out of the window. " how are we meant to know cheek outside". I told him I was confused and tried not to laugh at his ridiculousness. " omg guys its a police car". Logan said worriedly. " wait what, I bet that Saph has broken into a shop or something again". I told them not to care. "Hope, Erica, Christina, Lacy, Tee, Hetty, Johnny, can you all please come down please". Carmen called from down stairs. I ran out of the room scared and we walked down the hall towards the stares and just before we reached the stairs i started to shake and i fell so Logan grabbed my crutches Off of the table in the hall and got the set up as Johnny carried me to the stair lift, he lowered me down and i went down the stairs with Johnny Logan and the girls following closely behind me. " you ok princess"? Mike asked me worriedly. " not really my legs are getting weaker by the day Mike I'm scared i'll be stuck in a chair again". I told him not to cry. " hey it will all be ok sis". Johnny said kneeling in front of me. He let the girls pass and Logan stood beside him and they helped me stand up with my crutches but I just fell again so Logan grabbed my wheelchair and wheeled it over and Johnny lifted me in. We said goodbye to Logan and we all headed to the conference room. I had lacy on my lap, while Erica carried Hetty and Christina carried Tee and Johnny pushed my chair. We entered the room to see officer Gibbs and a young lady. "Hey kiddos, i suppose that you are wondering who we are and why we are here". Mr Gibbs said, smiling at us slightly. "Yes sir, '' Erica said, sitting down with Hetty on her lap as Christina sat down with a Tee and Johnny pulled a chair over next to my wheelchair. ''Well I am Mr Gibbs as Hope Johnny will know and this is my good friend Officer Woods, and we have news for you". Officer gibbs explained to us. " what news". Johnny said, confused and worried. " There is a court date for the men who kidnapped you next Wednesday and it would really help if at least a couple of you could testify, especially if you Hope and if the ones who don't what to testify could write a formal statement it would be perfect". Officer woods explained to us nervously. " OK i will do it, i will testify". I told the officers wanting the men to get locked up for good. " so will i but i wont allow the three little ones to do it". Johnny said firmly.Erica and Christina shared a look then nodded. " so will we". Erica said bravely even though we were all terrified. " OK so that is everyone except the three little ones that are testifying". Gibbs told officer woods. "Have you spoken to the others that were involved yet". I asked them to sit up straight. "Yes we have Hope and they all pass on their love". Officer Gibbs told us. "OK thank you both" we all said as the others all got up getting ready to leave " OK thank you kids we will see you all next Wednesday". Officer woods said before we all left the room and went out to the back garden.
