➸➸➸Adeline➸➸➸

My life has never been normal, at a very young age my mum had ended her life and my dad had always said it was "stress related" but i had always known it wasn't.

Soon after my dad became a mess , alcohol , drugs , smoking ,He was once my best friend and in only a matter of weeks he became a monster .

I was 8 when i was sent to live with a "family" on an island off the coast of north Carolina ,after my dad was sent to prison for selling and using drugs ,i was never told how long he was sentenced there for but i didn't mind as long as i was away from that shit hole.

Living with this said "family" was definitely an upgrade from back home but still i was only there to look like a trophy and portray the look of a helpless orphan that needed a family.

The Thornton family ,devils, spawns of satan, not nice people in other words just stuck up rich ass money fuckers.

Of course now i was Adeline Thornton as supposed to being Adeline Connan the troubled ADOPTED child of Cynthia Thornton who was apparently the queen of the country club and the bar .

She despised me and i swear the only reason i'm here is so i could go to her partys and be flaunted around to show she was apparently a godly figure who took in a helpless child from the cold streets on the main land ,as long as i went to her gatherings i would be left to my self.

My now so called 'big brother' topper only ever treated me like trash but at least he didn't ignore me like Cynthia did so that meant that would be food on the table at least once a week. To be honest yes he was horrible and yes i hated his guts but he wasn't the worst, he was still the king of the kooks though.

Most of the time Cynthia ignored me witch meant i could do what ever i want whenever i want ,i hung out with my best friends or the "pogues" on the south side of the island, i loved the south side of the island it reminded me of home it was where no one cared about money or if you had that new Carolina skiff 21 but where the only thing you could do was have fun or get jumped.

My friends john b , jj, kie and pope are the only people i could ever share a secret like my mum and dad to and after telling them that secret i knew they were always going to be my best friends.

I had met john b on my first day of school when i came to the island ,he had introduced me to his friend jj no actually he hadn't introduced me to jj he showed me how to chase jj around the school yard with sticks while throwing them at him .Slowly we all became best friends and during school kie and pope tagged along .

I have liked john b for many years now but never thought the feeling was mutual so i've left my HUGE crush to the side and focused on more important things even though there are never many to worry about and even if they are there never very important.

Jj is the only one i've personally told about john b but i know he would have ran happily to pope and kie and told them about my thoughts so now that kie and pope are in on it too they are doing everything to get us together

And i do know that all three of them have a bet that has gradually risen up to $20 to see who will make the first move, i'm pretty sure kie and pope both think i am but Jj on the other hand think john b will .
