Alex Pov:
The crowd roared as Pentatonix was about to pick the chair girl for this concert. I screamed and raised my hand as I jumped around in the crowd; Pentatonix is one of the main reasons I'm alive today, they've kept me somewhat same throughout the chaos that goes on at "home".
"Please pick me...please pick me..." I whispered to myself as Scott strolled across the stage, slowly looking around, making up his mind about how would be the lucky person to be the chair girl/boy for tonight. The blonde stopped in front of the area and pointed to someone, particularly around me or even at me.
I pointed to myself as I looked him in the eyes, mouthing "Me?" He shook his head and offered a hand to lift me up onto the stage. I was shaking, never in my life did I think I would really be chosen as the chair girl.

"Go! Go!" My friends cheered at me, smiling brightly at me.
I squealed and grabbed Scott's hand, pushing myself from the floor onto the high stage. A felt a dorky smile creep onto my face as I walked over to the chair, the rest of PTX was smiling at me. I knew what song was going to be sung, it was going to be their cover of Let's Get It On from the Sing Off. I've watched too many videos of the chair girl scene to know exactly what was going to happen.
My hands were shaking as Kevin started off the song. I was still in denial that this was really happening to me. ME, the dork that fangirls over various bands countless times a day. Why did they choose me? I was just a good-for-nothing girl from an orphanage, abandoned by her parents a few days after birth, never knowing what love really is, they could've chose anyone else but no, they chose me.
I was a laughing and blushing mess as they sang, mostly when Avi came and sat on my lap, wrapping an arm around my neck and tilting himself back. I squealed and wrapped both of my skinny arms around his stomach/waist area and only then did it hit me, I just lived the moment I've always wanted to happen, I got one of my only wishes come true.
~after the chair girl thing~

"Come backstage after the show, I have something I want to talk to you about." Avi whispered in my ear as I stood up, starting to walk off the stage. I jumped off of the stage with the same goofy grin attached to my face. My friends hugged me and screamed about how lucky I was. I could not have been more happy, my life was somewhat complete now...

-skipping the rest of the show to save time-
I walked backstage and there they stood, waiting on me, as I had been told by Avi. He pulled me aside with Kirstie, his girlfriend and smiled brightly.

"Alex, Kirstie and I just wanted to tell you that we wanted to...."

"ALEX WAKE UP IT'S ADOPTION DAY!!!!" Savannah screamed, throwing a pillow at my face.
I grumbled and sat up, throwing the pillow off of my bed. I was not in a good mood, for two reasons; one, it was adoption day, basically a day to mock that no one wants my worthless ass, they want the cute, happy ones. Not ones like me, broken, sad, and gothic or "emo" as some kids at school say. Little do they know that Emo is short for "emotional" so they're getting it all wrong, emo kids aren't always like they way people see them to be, they could be the happiest person in the world, but they could be "emo" sometimes.

"Savannah, you just woke me up from a wonderful dream that I would've enjoyed to continue." I gripped at the little girl wiggling around at the foot of my bed.

"Is it about the a Capella band you love so much?" She asked, leaning over the footboard.

"Yes, it was, and it ended oddly...Avi and Kirstie said they wanted to do something with me...isn't it funny it happened today?" I chuckled, sitting up, pushing back my long brown hair. People say I look like I could be Avi's daughter, but why in the world would AVI KAPLAN and KIRSTIE MALDONADO adopt me? They would just add another headache to their already crazy life...
