After a couple of hours of getting to know each other, Caoimhe, my social worker left to go back to Ireland.

"make this work. This could be your family." she smiled at me as we said goodbye.

"I'll try my best." I muttered. She pulled me into a hug, completely surprising me. Where had all this affection come from?

She left quite soon and I went back inside my new home to my new foster parents.

"can I go to bed now?" I yawned. I was pretty tired after the journey over. All I wanted was some sleep.

"of course! I'll show you your room." Susan beamed at me. "I hope you like it" Susan said nervously. I followed her up the stairs and down the corridor. "here it is." she opened the door and we stepped inside the most beautiful bedroom I've ever seen.

"wow...." I breathed, taking it in. It was everything I'd wanted, a gorgeous mahogany double bed, with a canopy and a gorgeous floral quilt. I also had a computer and a T.V! I had a desk just infront of my window, with a vase of red tulips sitting there, the floral aroma filling the room.

"you like it?" susan asked, biting her lip nervously.

"I absolutely love it!" I smiled at her. An I did. It was perfect.

Her face lit up completely and she quickly showed me where my suitcases where.

" I'll leave you to rest now dear." she smiled at me.

She left the room and I flopped on the bed. Oh god it was comfy! I got into my pjs and climbed into bed.

Almost instantly I fell asleep, dreaming of that gorgeous curly haired boy from earlier.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I woke up the next morning to get quite a shock. I shot up in bed, not realising where I was.

I relaxed back in bed, thinking back over the previous days events.

The curly haired boy slipped back into my head, and I giggled to myself. I was definatly a hopeless romantic!

I looked over at the clock, 9:00am. I hopped out of bed an began unpacking my belongings, while exploring every nook and cranny of my new room.

My new mahogany wardrobe just about fitted all my clothes! I was obsessed with fashion, I hoped be a fashion designer when I was older, or a model, or an actress or a singer or a dancer!

Not likely that any of them will work out, but I could dream couldn't I?

After about an hour of unpacking, I got dressed to go downstairs. I put on my denim shorts, a floaty floral t-shirt and my convers. I just threw my hair up in a messy bun and put a bit of blue eyeliner and mascara on.

I went downstairs, to find Susan pottering around in the kitchen.

"oh Lucy! I wasn't sure when you were getting up! I hope you slept well. I'm making pancakes for breakfast if that's okay?" she smiled at me.

"that's fantastic. I love pancakes. I was wondering, later on, could I go on a walk around the town? To explore? I wouldn't be long."I asked

"oh that's fine dear. Have a good wander round. Oh, the pancakes are almost ready."

I sat down to a gorgeous breakfast, the best pancakes i'd ever tasted. Man, she was a good cook!

After breakfast, I went out to explore a little. I had a good wander around, looking around the shops and had a little walk around the park.

It seemed liked a really really nice place. I was about to head home, when I realised I had no clue where I was!

I spotted a bunch of boys around my age across the street, and ( even as embarrassed as I was) I headed over.

"ehm, really sorry to bother ye, but do ye know where maidenhill is?" I asked

My cheeks burning.

They all turned around, looking slightly stunned.

"Irish eh?" one of them piped up grinning.

"uh yeah..." I said sheepishly . I looked around the group and spotted the curly haired boy! My heart raced and I looked away.

"my name's lucy. Now, ehm maidenhill? I'm kinda new here, I'm staying with the Roberts...." I trailed off looking around the group.

"oh, your the new foster kid! We heard about you, you'll be at our school!" one of them said

"never said she was hot...." Another muttered under his breath and they all chuckled. My cheeks burned, I was blushing furiously.

"yeah, you know what, never mind. I'll find it eventually. Ehm, thanks though." I rambled and walked off.

That was so embarrassing!!
